And Mamas & Papas A3 Sportivo Travel System Boardwalk Standard Stroller

It was the first travel system we bought and spent many hours investigating all the options out there. The concept is good as a complete travel system but the build quality lets it down. The carry basket rubbed against the back wheels from new with it carrying very little. The support arm just above the back wheels fractured in two places and because is was just over year old when this fell off, was not covered under warranty although it is clearly a manufacturing fault. It is now unuseable which is a shame as the rest of it is in good condition. We are on the lookout now for another pram and will certainly not buy another Mamas and Papas brand

We chose this because of the nice look, and as first time parents, we didn't really know what to look for in a treavel system!! The first problem was with the car seat, my babies head only stayed upright when she was about 7-8 months as the design of the seat meant her head kept tilting forward. The buggy was good, although the footreast never stayed in place, and always caused problems putting it up and down. The eventual downfall of the buggy came when the joints which click into and out of place when putting up anmd down gave in or losened, as a result it was impossible to get up and down. Also the basket at bottom came away from pram, which meant you couldn't carry shopping or anything on it. Don't buy this, it was not wort the money and did not last any length of tim, a year, I expected it to do another child, but it hasn't even survived till my baby was walking!!!!! AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!
