If you know of a better deal or 'workaround' with other sheets please let me know this is soooooo much money! (ok serves me right for buying an Xplory but OMG)

I bet this lady could make you a pair at snunkie She does custom bedding, but she is very busy atm and the wait is about 4 weeks I think, so depends when you need them for.

I just used normal flat sheets from mothercare they just folded under the mattress and youncould work them round the funny shaped bit by the handle, if you see what i mean. It would only be normal fitted sheets that wouldn't fit properly.

I used a pillow case and just tucked the around the carrycot part but to be honest if the carrycot hadn't have been free in the package deal I wouldn't have bothered.
The seat is fine from birth and within 6 weeks he wants to see what's going on and talk to his mum not stare at the hood.
After all that's why I bought a stokke to interact, now question for you, how do you fold the bloody thing down ?

pillowcases, or cut up old sheets hemmed round the edges. You might need more than two anyway if there is lots of sick. :)

Yes it has white parts, it's this years model.
I once got the two back wheels to become loose and got towards the front wheels but it wouldn't stay there, so it went up back into position and has been like it ever since.
