Urban Detour Glacier

Although I already have 2 pushchairs, a travel system and a lightweight buggy purchased to take on holiday; I wanted a buggy that would enable me to walk on the many rough tracks around where I live.

I've owned my Urban Detour Glacier for over a year now and apart from a couple of down sides, I've got to say I love it to bits. It is really nicely padded and so is extra comfortable for my daughter, it has the 5 point safety harness and reclines as much as you need it to, even flat so is suitable for a newborn if necessary. The handle is nice and high, I am quite tall and suffer from a bad back so this has really helped me lots.
