After reviewing and testing several prams, we finally chose the Graco Mosiac Travel System in Metropolitan (Black and Grey to match our new car).

This pram (travel system) ticked all our boxes. It was affordable at £150 from an online seller called Little Urchins, it folds down very small which is ideal as our car isn’t a people carrier it’s a Peugeot 307, it comes complete as it’s a travel system which means it’s a baby seat, pram and push chair, its a lot lighter than many of the systems we tried which means Fiona can lift it, it is easy to fold and erect, it matches are car and most of all I look damn cool pushing it.

Having pushed this pram with our friends 4 month old in it, I can honestly say it rocks. Easy to manoeuvre and comfortable to push which many weren’t as I’m 6’2”. We had a bit of trouble finding it in the colour we wanted as it has gone out of production and been replaced by some bizarre flowery pattern. The pram is still the same (Graco Mosiac) but the patterns have changed.

Oh we nearly purchased a brown suede version but decided at the last minute that suede and sick don’t mix. Thank god we did as the majority of new mums I see around at the moment have the suede one and it would have looked so stupid next to our car.
