Does anyone have a Maxi-Cosy Mura?

Do you like it?

Is it too big for frequent bus/train travel?

Am also pondering and iCandy... no idea which one. I think I'd like pnematic tyres so is that the apple?

A friend of mine has the Mura and is quite happy with hers (4 wheel one). She says it's a '4x4 equivalent' , as it goes over any terrain and is very easy to push. She's not a frequent bus user, but I've seen these on trains/buses and they didn't look like a big challenge to get on and off.
I myself have a Musty 4Rider Light and have used outs on both buses and trains with absolutely no problems . We actually love ours, as it has large wheels that go over anything (even snow and sand) with ease. The seat unit is fantastic, as it's completely adjustable (even the depth), so the bub is always comfortable. Definitely worth to consider .
If you're after a 3-wheeler, I liked the specs and the look of the Teutonia S3. Couldn't convince DH though , as we're so happy with the Mutsy.

btw, if you do decide on the Mura, let me know. My friend's little girl wants to walk everywhere now, so she's looking to sell hers in the next couple of weeks.

all I will say is that if you are considering the maxi cosi mura, go to mothercare and fold it and try and lift it first. At 17+ kg its not a lightweight and most women would struggle to lift it just after having a baby. a

Yes, its very comfortable for my daugher and gives a smooth ride

Is it too big for frequent bus/train travel?

Yes. Its is very large and bulky.

Hmmm, it looks really nice. But I think it's too big and too heavy. I definitely want a pram whose back wheels are narrow enough to go on an escalator.

I've had a Mura for the last 15 months (taken my newborn through to now). I really love it. Very easy to push, really really sturdy, can handle the cobble streets where I live like a breeze.

I would not recommend it to someone who takes public transport all the time though as it does not have a small fold and is quite heavy.

Fantastic buggy for people that do a lot of walking, want something sturdy etc. Also my hubbie loves to push it.
