I purchased this same buggy when my son was 8 months old. He is now 13 months old and to say we have only used this occasionally for shopping trips as it fits in the car easier than our pram it is already dropping through to bits. The adjustable foot rest has snapped on one side and can now no longer be used and one of the tyers keeps falling off the wheel. I find this easy to put up but it takes two of us to put back down again (ONE to hold the buggy still while the other pulls the adjuster with all our might). I have come so close to just leaving this in the shoppers car park an driving off so many times. I would never purchase a Silver Cross buggy again. I have e-mailed silver cross and they are not prepared to help as they say its down to wear and tare!! I expected it to last longer than that for £90.
