It's easy to fold and fits in a small car boot, with carry handle. Good positioning for new born - flatter than a car seat/travel system and a nice padded seat. Great accessories included - raincover, 2 x footmuff/coseytoe, 2 x headhugger & shoulder pads. I find that, due to the width of side-by-side, access to places can be limited, which includes getting around inside the shop once you've negotiated the door. My older son is a big boy and I thought the seat looked a bit pokey, but he hasn't complained and fits surprisingly well (seats on side-by-sides are smaller than single buggies). The only other issue I found was that the brakes are temperamental/quite difficult to get on properly - I've had to run after it in car parks = not good. The absence of a middle handle has never bothered me, but my mum has commented when using, that it's easier to have one with 3rd handle. I thought it good value for money, it's kept well and I've not been disappointed.
