Baby buys - pram/baby sling suggestions? - Page 3

bex · Jan 5th, 2009, 05:25 AM

We didn't buy a pushchair this time although i did like the bugaboo bee as its quite compact.
We got a moby sling instead and its the best £30 i have ever spent. I wear it in the house to get my house work done, prepare tea, play with my son and its fantastic for shopping as you have both hands free. I've even mastered the art of going to the loo with Niamh in the sling!!! I wish i'd known about them when i had my son.

Hiya,

Thanks girls..

Got another question about the cherry, does anyone know if it fits in a volkswagen polo??

x-amy-x · Jan 6th, 2009, 03:58 AM

Um.. I don't have a polo. But my Boot isnt exactly big and it fits. The rear wheels of the Cherry also come off really really easily. The apple doesn't fit in my boot but the cherry does

If your after light I would avoid the icandy if your after steady and don't need to put it up down up down in a boot of car then its fine! Basically if I drove the icandy would have had to go!

I love the icandy it suits me although I was undecided whist wondering if I wanted to turn it into a double.

Bonus for me is it can hold plenty of shopping/weight

Icandy Cherry is 5kg and the Apple is 10kg. Hence why i bought the cherry, i use the car a lot! I love it. You can always go to a stockist and test one out xx

Thanks Amy, what car do you have if you don't mind me asking? as we're selling our car pretty soon and don't want to buy something that won't fit in our new boot!

We went to a stockist today and we saw the iCandy Apple with the 3 wheels, it felt a bit wobbly and I thought it seemed quite big.. we preffered the Cherry - very light with the cabrio car seat attached, looked very easy to use, nice to push. I think we're going to get this one, thanks for the recommendation.

i drive a ka and there made to fit in them or so im told, fits in my boot just wouldnt get nowt else in tho and the boots on the ka are tiny.

If it helps my iCandy Cherry fit in the boot of my friends VW Lupo which are really tiny so you should have no problem with it fitting in a polo. (my Silvercross NEVER fitted into her car I only used to be bale to take the Zapp out with me if i went any where with her)

Also Chris's sister has one of the new shape Corsas and the boots about the same size as a polo & it fit in that too

I always use my car and find it very easy to fold up & down and light to put in the car.

honestly i really cant fault it
