Hi all,

Just wanted to let you know the Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle we shared the insider gossip on above has now been reviewed.

Check out exactly what our tester had to say when she put the Urban Jungle through its paces!

Hi MFM mums, dads and parents-to-be,

We've put more of these shiny new buggies to the test. Firstly, we've got the EXCLUSIVE first test and review of the Phil and Teds Smart buggy - see if it lived up to the hype!

If you've got twins or two siblings, do check out the Mountain Buggy Duo review.

And if you end up buying either, make sure you post your own user review - good, bad, indifferent, we want to hear your opinions!

i had a play with the phil and teds new one a week ago at kiddicare, i love my vibe and im now looking for a stroller, and well me and the oh hated it, without how short the handle is and its bizare looks, the seat is just awful!!! its makes a quinny zap look like the height of luxury, a big thumbs down from me and i was very keen to buy it before i saw it, back to trusty old maclaren i think!

it was the seat that put me off, its so hard and lola wasnt impressed, and she loves her buggy. i could see it working if you had the carrycot and carseat, but i do sooo much walking it doesnt work for me, im soft on my two, there buggy seats have to be like sofas lola has a padded liner in hers, wouldnt want the princess getting a numb bum

I'm going to ahve to have a trip to kiddiecare I think.........seat looked smart(as name suggests) but I was bit concerned with the material. Shame that! You still in love with vibe? Which one did you prefer-vibe or pear??????

Thinking of selling my p&t if Jc can do the walk to Tom's school!

kiddicare is soooo worth going to,

there customer care is second to none, lolas carseat wasnt tightening easily so they gave me a brand new one, then a clip broke so theyre repairing for free and gave me a brand new one to borrow, and while we waited for it to be processed they gave us free drinks in the cafe.

ive been about 10times now as its in the middle of here and leicester, and only 5mins off the main road.

I love my vibe, but i really want a maclaren, because i just love them, and theyre so light and easy to use.

now between the pear and vibe, oh i cant choose, they both have so many positives, id deffinatly say pear for first year then vibe for two toddlers, having lola in a carrycot or carseat and jack being able to lay down was invaluable to me, and now in the vibe when one naps the other walks, altough little miss can recline in the back and nap comfortably with jack reclined slightly. and the vibe is just one piece folded and easy to do aswell, pear was a bit of a jigsaw but worth it.

see i cant choose.

have you seen Baby jogger city select, thats rather nice,
