Travel system with height adjust handle??

SazzleB · Jan 13th, 2010, 08:40 AM

Hello,

We are looking for a travel system with height adjustable handle(s) as hubby is more than a foot taller than me! Can anybody recommend a good one for us please?
If its a new system £250 would be the max price, but we could also look on ebay for a used bargain if the system is more than £250 new.

Thanks!!

We have the Quinny Buzz 3 and it has an adjustable handle. It's a fab pram (haven't used the pushcahir part yet), folds down flat and is easy to get back up as I had a c-section so it was really useful having something that you didn't have to fiddle with to get it ready.
Not sure how much they are new, but we got a great 2nd hand one off ebay with the carry cot/pram part too.

I bought the Graco Vivo travel system mainly due to the same height issue. I'm 5ft2 and DH is 6ft so BIG difference. The handles adjust really good, I can use it on medium height and DH uses it on the highest. I bought it for £150 on sale, but don't know what they are going for without the sales I'm afraid. Good luck.

I'm 5ft 5(and a half!) and hubby is 6ft2. We've got a Silver Cross Sleepover with a Classic chassis which has a height adjustable handle and we're both fine with it.

However, it's a massive pram so not useful for public transport or a small boot.

we went for the maxi cosi mura3 and its great, the handle has 3 heights, the highest of which is really great for oh especially!!

I have a Mamas and Papas Pliko which can be a travel system. You have to buy everything seperately though but I have seen some good bargains on ebay. I got my Pliko for £60 and that included the apron, cosytoes, raincover and changing bag.

There is also the Jane slalom pro. Lovely pram but again, expensive so another ebay job.
