thats it really, want it cheap as chips off ebay, how much should i expect to pay for which model? its predominantly for nearly 3 yo small dd but also have 6mo ds who rides in style in a bee+ ;)

DD rides in tesco value £10 stroller which has no hood, no basket and is a bit low for 5'9" dh, fancy a similar but better one to tide us over

Quest everytime :o

I love my Quest, have had 2. Both my boys have napped in one even though they don't fully recline. They recline enough to sleep in iykwim. I had a Techno XT for ds2 and I didn't like it.

Agree with quest (have an xt which I quite like but a bee would do job better) - it reclines enough and my dd who is 6. 1 pushes it fine. There are others like the triumph that are lighter/cheaper but don't recline as much or have solid feel of quest.

I despise my quest.

Truly truly hate it. I have a bee so possibly have been spoilt by that.

It doesn't recline and tips over far too easily for my liking. Plus ds2 (11 months) feels a tonne weight in it.

Not a quest! hate them! (And I HAVENT been spoilt by a bee! :o ) personally thing Maclarens are overrated (there, I said it!) but out of all of them I would say an XT/XLR

thanks for all your help, I won the local triumph on ebay for £25.50 and there is a matching footmuff in the local paper for £10 which I'm collecting tonight. Very pleased with it so far but only had it 2 minutes, so not gone far yet. Its better to push than the tesco value stroller its replacing x
