New slimmer UPPAbaby VISTA now shipping in the US.

04th December, 2007, 11.11pm GMT

Eric from PeppyParents.com reports that UPPAbaby have responded to feedback about their VISTA stroller being too wide by shaving two inches off the width of the stroller. This has been achieved with the introduction of slimmer rear wheels and modified wheel hubs, leaving the rest of the stroller unchanged. A cupholder mount has also been added to the frame to take the new cupholder due out on January 2008. The UPPAbaby VISTA is in stock at www.peppyparents.com, or see www.uppababy.com for more details.

Phil & Teds Vibe set for January release!

26th November, 2007, 12.00pm GMT

This long anticipated addition to the Phil & Teds line-up has several advantages over the Sport model, including an aluminium frame which makes it lighter, an improved recline mechanism, the relocation of the brake to the handlebar, superior hood with built in sun shield, and a larger basket. Perhaps most significantly, the Vibe will fold in one piece, even with the doubles seat attached in the rear position. The single Vibe will retail in the US for $599, and doubles seat looks to be an extra $110. See http://www.buggyunlimited.com/ or www.babybeddingtown.com for more information.
