Anyone have one? What are they like? Is it worth the money? First time mum here with no previous experience of prams! Little one on their way in a few weeks! Help!
We've previously been looking at the Uppababy Vista, but we're concerned by some of the flame retardants used on it and it's huge and won't fit in our boot. I'm weighing up the G2 vs an iCandy pram at the moment. The G2 would seem to be the more "green" option, which is swaying us at the moment.
Still, I'm a stickler for practicality and don't want to be won over by marketing spiel!
DH is really sold on the G2 as he is a bit of a geek (and TBH I am always sold on gadget-y type things too!) and thinks this looks very, very well made. We've watched all of the demos. We also think it looks smaller than the iCandy's and would fit in our tiny boot better.
I was initially a bit concerned about the lack of storage underneath but notice that there is a nappy bag that comes with it (negating need for a seperate nappy bag and saving a few pennies?) and that you can buy separate panniers to hang either side. They look like they would be ok for us. We don't really do a huge amount of shopping and use Ocado for weekly groceries / top up from small local shops.
My other question is whether or not the seat is a car seat too? I'm a bit confused! Planning to go to John Lewis to check one out but won't be for a few weeks due to other plans. So itching to get as much research as I can done now!
Any help much appreciated :)
