Right so when I was pregnant with Libby we bought a Maxi Cosi Mura 4, loved it but it was far too bulky/big to go in an out of the car so sold it. We then bought a Mamas & Papas Ora - Libby hated it so sold it. Then had a Britax Verve - absolutely lethal and tipped forwards with Libby in it so got rid of it. Then bought a Quinny Zapp - Libby was older, it folds brilliantly and we've still got it in Simon's car.

So when I was pregnant with Dexter bought an OBaby Zezu Sport, again loved it but Simon bought a smaller car with a teeny boot so it would be awkward to get in an out of the car - sold it, so we bought a Baby 1st pram - hated it - sold it. Then got a Petite Star Zia - was OK but didnt like the fact that I couldn't see Dexter and it felt a bit flimsy - so sold it. Just bought a Bebe Confort Loola, and yes it's good but it's heavy, only just fits in my boot (with persuasion) so I dont think I'm going to keep it ARRRGGGHHHHHHHHHH it's driving me mad that I cant get the perfect pushchair!!!!!!!!

The Maxi Cosi, Mamas & Papas, Britax, and Obaby were all bought new, I'm not allowed to buy brand new anymore because I keep changing my mind Embarassed

Can anyone recommend a decent pushchair that folds small, isnt too bulky, folds with one hand (hasnt got a separate seat unit etc.) PLEASE!!!!! xx

sorry we are having similar probs Laughing our quinny senzz arrived today, quite like it but not in love (will see what eli thinks tomorrow). i do still love my m+p sola and there are a lot of them around - folds very neatly and very easily (although you do need 2 hands). our front wheels were totally knackered due to snow/walking it through mud and grass haha/generally having quite a hard life, but we are waiting for the replacement wheels and hopefully it will be good to go for ages more.....worth a look on ebay x

They are gorgeous!!! But second hand quite expensive still and absolutely none within 50 miles of us Sad

I have been looking at the Senzz Mari, I like the look of them but worried it'll be another whim because it looks nice but not be that great iykwim. I do love the Zapp but it doesnt recline.

i will let you know how we get on with it, it does fold absolutely tiny, after practicing tonight realistically you do need to use two hands to do it. there are wind covers at the sides of the hood (i thought it looked a bit draughty) and its pretty light. seems very low to the floor (although that might be just compared to the sola). we got it for £90 new on ebay so not the end of the world if we sell it on!

it only faces outwards but the recline is good - basket is very small and handle is a weird shape but as i say i haven't actually 'driven' it anywhere yet Laughing will get a pic of elijah having fun in it if i remember Very Happy
