Advantages: Great all in one pushchair, very light and stylish

Disadvantages: Pram mode does not give 'true lie flat position', can be quite expensive

I bought this Pushchair for my little one as it was everything I needed and will continue to do the job for a few years I believe. When I bought the pushchair it did not come with an accessory pack, but all matching accessories were available separately. Also the pushchair I purchased was in the fabric Balmain which is brown with white diamond stitching detail unlike the vertical fabric pictured above, apart from the fabric the pushchair is exactly the same.

.....Pushchair mode.....

Pushchair mode consists of the seat facing forward, this means you are standing behind whilst pushing the pram and baby is facing away from you. This mode is suitable from birth and the back can be adjusted to a lie down position. A harness is also used to keep baby safe and strapped in.

.....Pram Mode.....

This pushchair can be made into pram style with an additional pram liner. Pram mode consists of baby lying down, this means whilst you are pushing the pram baby is facing towards you. This mode is also suitable from birth and the pram liner has a fabric harness which fastens by Velcro. This mode is suitable until the child can sit unaided, although you may find your child is too big for this mode before that time.

.....Travel System Mode.....

The pushchair can also be made into a travel system with an additional car seat. The travel system mode can be very useful for transferring a sleeping baby from a car to a pushchair without disturbing them, although it is recommended not to leave babies in car seats for long periods of time. To do this the car seat simply clicks onto the pram in pushchair mode, clips to do this are already attached to the pushchair. When in travel system mode the car seat is facing you whilst you are pushing the pram. The additional car seat is suitable up to the age of 9 months.

.....what's included.....

Included with the pushchair:

Aluminium Chassis (apparently the lightest on the market)
All fabric covers and hood (colour depends on which fabric you choose)
Zip on raincover
Cup holder
Apron

.....Optional Extra's.....

Pram Liner £40
Primo Viaggio IP car seat £115
Matching footmuff £55
Matching Change bag £55
Parasol £20

.....Bad Bits.....

There is only one fault I have found with this pushchair, when it is in pram mode baby is meant to be lying in a 'True flat position'. This is not the case as your babies head is always lying lower than his body, to me this would be quite uncomfortable so I always put a folded blanket under my son's head as a sort of pillow. Using a blanket/pillow solves the problem easily but you should consider this before buying I would advise.

Also bear in mind that these pushchairs can work out quite expensive, when I purchased mine it was on special offer. At the moment the same package as pictured above is on sale for £240 (usually £300) which includes pushchair, pram liner, matching footmuff and matching change bag. I think this is an absolute bargain.

All in all I would recommend this pushchair to anyone and everyone, it is very light, stylish, easy to use and one of the best purchases I have made.
