Advantages: suitable from birth, lots of features Disadvantages: not the lightest
i bought this buggy/stroller as i was due to have a baby and i already had a little one so they would be 18 months apart and i needed a double buggy.
i was very specific about what i wanted from the buggy i chose i wanted it to have three wheels rather than two as i believe it is safer when going up kerbs etc, i wanted it to have an adjustable legrest to make it more comfortable for my 18 month old, i wanted it to be umbrella folding ... ...as possible to be suitable for my newborn.
this stroller ticked all of the boxes. as you can see from the picture it has the three sets of wheels front and back as well as the adjustable legrest.
what you cant see and what really sold it for me is that when the backrest is laid down it is practically flat which i discovered was rare with double buggies and with the cosy toes in it looked very comfortable. it also comes ... more

this stroller ticked all of the boxes. as you can see from the picture it has the three sets of wheels front and back as well as the adjustable legrest.
what you cant see and what really sold it for me is that when the backrest is laid down it is practically flat which i discovered was rare with double buggies and with the cosy toes in it looked very comfortable. it also comes with two head rests so would be suitable for newborn twins
other features include a good sized basket under each seat, removable hoods which can be worked independently of each other and lockable front wheels.
what is not very clear from the photo is that there are actually three handles to push with and i find that the middle handle is very handy for hanging shopping bags on without increasing the width of the buggy.
this stroller comes in three colour variations, the one in the photo which says BRO in blue and SIS in pink, it also comes in a kind of plum colour which reads sugar & spice and then it comes in the colour i have which is navy blue and says "you & Me" on one side and "me & you" on the other.
when i purchased this it came with two cosy toes, a rain cover and two little insulated bottle holders/sleeves though these do not attach to the buggy they are separate.
i found that the price does vary on this and it is worth shopping around, i also found that they are more readily available online and are in few if any stores.
so far i havn't found a doorway it doesnt fit through although some are very tight as are some lift doors, it is also very manouvreable.
so now to the downsides, it is not the lightest in the world and although there are some lighter double buggies i would say the good points far outweigh this fact (no pun intended)
also the raincover covers both seats and i think i would perhaps have preffered independent rain covers but this is more personal preference.
lastly is to do with the folding, it is easy to collapse and has a plastic clip on each side which when you fold the buggy down automatically clip shut meaning you can practically do this with one hand. the downside to these i have found is that they tend to get caught on the sidebars as you are collapsing the buggy and kind of fold in on themselves and start to twist. only a minor hitch but quite annoying if you arent paying attention and cant work out why it wont fold flat!!!!
other than that i am pleased with this purchase and believe that it was definitely the right choice
Advantages: EASY TO USE Disadvantages: ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Having recently had my second child it was time Ibought a dble buggy as my eldest is only 16 months and I need for him to be in a buggy as hes not old enough to be walking around the shops just yet.
I thought this buggy would be perfect for me due to it being for both sexes. I love the bro/sis design.
This buggy is suitable from birth upwards and comes complete with:
2 head huggers, ideal for newborns
chest huggers, again ideal for newborns
... ...independently, this is fantastic when my newborn is aslep but toddeler is wide awake then neither one gets disturbed.
easy umbrella folding system
5 point safety harness
swivel front wheels
cosytoes, these are great because they have a clever zip off feature so they can be used as a pushchair liner
independent removable hods, both with veiwing windows
built in suspension
2 shopping baskets.

Weight is 11.3kg
