Hi, I spent a lot of money on a Lulu Guinness Maclaren buggy for my little girl.  Unfortunately the brake has never worked very well and this causes problems when taking her the park to feed the ducks as you have to wedge it against something to stop her being propelled into the lake.  I really need a new buggy but have a limited income now and was hoping someone out there could recommend a good one for me.  Thank you

I ADORE my Petite Star Zia!  I had a few pushchairs for DD1, so for DD2 I went for the M&P Luna first of all but sold it on after about 6 months as although it was very nice it didn't fold up that small and brought the Zia and 18 months later I still have it and still love it !!!  I did wonder if it might be no good once she reached about 18 months due to the suspension but it's still fab and only around £100!

At first we had a Petite Star Aruba from Mothercare that constantly had wheels coming off,on time in the road, hense that went back for a refund. If you daughter is over 6 month the Bruin Hopper from Toys R Us. It's confy, light & a tiny stroller with excellent basket space, rincover & hood included. I believe I paid £45.00 brand new, bargin!!! Once my new baby turns 6 months we are getting rid of the double buggy & getting another one so the girls have one each which shows how great & excellent value for money I think they are. I you have a car my best advice is ask them to see if it fits in your boot before you buy it. I tried 6 buggys & have a large car but only one fitted. Good luck.

I have a Silver Cross Fizz and I think it is fantastic!  It comes in about four different colours.  It comes complete with a raincover.  The basket underneath is only small but that doesn't bother me too much.  It cost £80.00.  It is very lightweight and here's the best bit - you don't have to have an engineering degree to fold it up!  I would't be without it.
