Comments

Manoeuvrability is easy on all terrains, although it's difficult to steer with the large tyres to the front. Lots of genuinely useful features including the reversible handlebar and seat which lets you chose to have baby facing towards or away from you with the choice of either swivel wheels or pneumatic tyres to the front. It's difficult to collapse and can't be done with one hand. Bulky to store and the seat is small for some of the bigger toddlers in our test.

Easy to manoeuvre on tarmac and gravel, but struggled a little on sand and grass. Easy to put up first time and the instructions are clear. Folding and unfolding is straightforward, but can't be done with one hand. Comfortable padded seat and it's quick and easy to convert from pram to pushchair.

Excellent manoeuvrability on all surfaces, including sand. Reasonably easy to put up, but can't be done with one hand. Good value for money as the car seat is included in the price. Roomy, padded seat.

Comments

Pushchair comes almost fully assembled- no need to attach wheels as with all other models. Scored highly on manoeuvrability on all surfaces except grass. Very easy to put up/ down, but can't be done with one hand. Brakes are difficult to put on and off and it's awkward to attach the car seat.

Good at travelling on tarmac, but it struggled on other surfaces and was a little bumpy when on gravel. Difficult to assemble first time and the twist mechanism on the handle makes folding/ unfolding tricky and can't be done with one hand. Very easy to attach car seat to frame
