iCandy Peach Blossom 2012 Review

The new 2012 iCandy Peach Blossom is a brilliant, gorgeous, stylish, easy to push, practical tandem pushchair. iCandy have transformed what was always ...

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Britax B-Agile is neat, lightweight travel system stroller offering a good level of comfort for the child. It features a two step, but one handed fold which is great for those times where you need to carry a baby or hold a toddlers hand. Offers an accessible storage basket and a huge hood with mesh panel for ventilation.

Pros:

Great one handed fold with locking mechanism and side carrying handle. Good padded seats for a comfortable ride. Good sized storage basket which is easily accessible. Lies flat so good for a newborn. Will take a Britax infant carrier on adaptors. Storage in the rear of the hood. An automatic lock & secondary lock keep the B-Agile safely parked. Automatic fold lock.

Cons:

The handle is sponge and we question how easily it will get damaged. The black is the regular Britax fabric. The auto lock doesn't make unfolding logical - it's awkward.

Additional information:

The shoulder straps attach onto the harness using a sliding system, not a clip. This seems fine because unlike other brands these do not slide off constantly. However it does give you the option of a three point harness should you wish (although we don't recommend this).

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Mountain Buggy +One is an inline pushchair with a difference. Based on a modified Urban Jungle chassis, it will has two seats, one raised slightly behind the other. The rear seat lies flat to enable a newborn baby to lie flat on the included mattress (note the new 2015 +One no longer has a cocoon). The +One has a seat capacity of 20kgs each, or 25kgs in single mode. There is a good covered shopping basket and chunky wheels is great off road or in town.

Pros:

Two seats within essentially a modified single chassis. So this pushchair works equally well as a single pushchair. One child is slightly raised above the other. This is a Mountain Buggy so the build quality and off road ability is good. This pushchair is well balanced well, easy to manoeuvre and push with two children in it. Large shopping basket. Waterbottle is included.
A car seat or carrycot can go onto the +one but in single mode only.
The Mountain Buggy +One is brilliant for older twins or siblings - a perfect pushchair for your children to move into once they have outgrown their baby / toddler pushchair.
The new 2015 +One has two reclining seats.

Cons:

The front seat will recline but only a small amount. Having the front seat reclined also means that the front child is nearer the rear child. This will compromise their leg space on the deepest recline, (it does not compromise on a slight recline), but also leaves the front child open to 'attack' from siblings from behind - however well meaning it may be! So having a child who understands not to touch / stroke / poke their sibling is important!
The +one is long and tall, especially with the hood on the higher settings ie for an older child. The hood does not meet at the rear - there is a small gap. The rear child could easily kick the front child from underneath the seat or pull their hair / generally annoy from behind. Long when folded. Raincover is not included.
The new 2015 +One is fiddly to recline the seats.

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Baby Jogger City Mini is an extremely practical, easy to use pushchair. The one handed fold is genius and makes it easy to fold and unfold the pushchair with a child tucked under one arm. The flat fold slides into small gaps. Packed full of features like a large hood, good shopping basket, storage pocket and large lie flat area. The City Mini fits a carrycot and car seat. I cannot sing the praises of this brilliant practical pushchair enough. Highly recommended.
The Baby Jogger City Mini was renewed in 2019 and is now able to accommodate a child up to 22 kgs as the City Mini 2.

Pros:

One handed fold. Neat and slim when folded. Light and easy to carry. Huge canopy with peekaboo windows - offers good sun protection and protection in a light rain shower. Lie flat toggle recline. Fits a carrycot or car seat making a great travel system from birth onwards. Good sized shopping basket. Large, tall seat. Stylish. Very easy to use.

May tip if you push one handed - there is a new four wheel version which resolves this. Non adjustable handle. Raincover not included.

Lots of optional accessories including car seat adaptors, a choice of 3 carrycots (hard bodied, compact or compact plus (2012)), belly bar, changing bag, cup holder, carry bag, raincover and glider board.
The carrycots can be added onto the chassis with or without the pushchair fabric. Removing the fabric makes the City Mini more like a pram.

Baby Jogger City Elite 2 Single

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Baby Jogger City Elite 2 successfully combines urban practicality with luxurious comfort in an all terrain pushchair. The one handed fold makes folding whilst holding baby simple. The beautifully padded seats are suitable from birth but when combined with a choice of 3 carrycots or car seat make a perfect travel system. The Elite 2's update now makes it suitable for a child up to 22 kgs where previously it was 15 kgs. A superb stroller.
The first 5 pictures are the Elite 2 and following pictures are original Elite.

Pros:

Easy one handed fold into a neat package. Chunky forever air tyres are quick release and are great off road. Huge canopy and thick padded seat offer excellent comfort for a baby or toddler. The seat is very large with good leg length. Car seat and carrycot compatible. One handed silent lie back recline. Large basket, behind seat storage net and fantastic parent console included. Hand operated parking brake. Adjustable leg rest. A choice of hard bodied carrycot, or a compact carrycot or a compact plus carrycot can all be added, with or without the seat fabric in situ.

Cons:

Footrest is chunky so adds to the folded size but with the wheels off the size is very similar to the City Mini. It can feel a bit back heavy. Wide. Raincover not included but otherwise an absolutely brilliant pushchair.
