Have posted on the same topic recently but have considered my options further, so sorry but I need to ask for opinions/advice again! And sorry if this has been done to death before...
I have the Britax B-Smart 3, which has done well, but the seat has given up the ghost. We have decided to try to fix it for the more all-terrain/off road uses on occasion, so I would really like a more nippy, urban type pushchair for DS to get regular use out of. The Chicco London is fine for the occasional use/holiday/toddlers etc but its not really comfortable enough for extended everyday use and the straps are way too big.
Must haves:
*Easy one-handed push/steering ( for gripping DD's hand as we walk whilst pushing)
*A smallish fold ( doesn't have to be the smallest out there but ideally small)
*A comfortable, supportive seat, but not too bulky as DS likes to look around and try to reach out apparently (he couldn't do this in the Britax, as the sides are quite built-up, and can in the Chicco London and seems to like it)
*Ideally lasting DS into toddlerhood (he is 10mo & average size)
*Fully adjustable harness
Very nice to haves:
*Big basket
*Adjustable handle
*Narrowish size to fit in/around shops - certainly narrower than the Britax, which I think is around 62cm
Open to debate:
*3 or 4 wheels
Budget, but we're looking at the lower price range really will struggle to convince DH to spend our money otherwise
Can be just forward facing.
Have a Kiddicare, Mothercare, Toys R Us, Smyths Toys, Mamas and Papas not far away, have never ventured near any of the independent stores so don't know if they are quality or not, but have plenty of options essentially...
Any suggestions very much appreciated. TIA :)
Oh and I do like the look of the BJCM and BJCM GT but wonder if they're still quite bulky pushchairs, although know they get a lot of positive reviews.
