General Review
I purchased this stroller app 2 months ago as i downsized from a tandem.Got a great deal which included the bassinet (not needed ,but will take it anyway!)Very easy to push and fold,very lightweight and had a lot of comments on how good it looks.Nice wide seat,which is deceptive as the actual whell width is quite narrow so bub gets the room to be comfortable without pushing a huge pram around.Love the fact that it reclines in an easy pull of the strap and no hassles sitting it back p whilst bub is in there.I have even found on the odd ocassion my nearly 3 year old doesn't want to walk,she fits quite comfortably next to,bigger then average,1 year old bro.Easy clean fabric which is great too.
Pros
lightweight
take you from birth to 20kgs (with bassinette)
easy one hand fold
large basket
reclines
large sun hood
comes with zip in meah and bootie cover for extra protection (also great when bub is asleep)
Cons
only con i have found is the bumper (which is removable,or folds down out of the way)is covered in the nylon fabric that the pram is made of and it has pulled quite easily (not a big drama though)from bub putting feet on it.I also had a small prob with a loose brake cable but baby shop where purchased new that it just need pushing in further and fixed in 5 minutes,has been perfect ever since)
Great mover, storage space and looks good too!

I bought the buggster and bassinet last year for the birth of my little girl. The bassinet is a little difficult to take on and off but cosy and lasted for a good 4 months. Very happy with the buggy personally think its much better than the quinny zap as it reclines and has a basket and better than the buzz and buggaboo as its so light (only 7 kilos). so impressed previus one get wrecked at the airport and after umpteen hours on the internet looking at new models decided couldnīt do better!
Pros
great looking easy to push and lightweight with a basket and reclines!!
Cons
Could recline more and brake is abit temperamental!
Good Looking, many issues

I ordered this stroller because I love my Valco Runabout and wanted somthing less bulky for travel. It is a really great looking stroller, easy to open and close. After a week the left rear wheel kept falling off, I switched the wheels around thinking that I had put it to gether wrong but the same thing kept happening. So I returned it to the online retailer and they sent me a new one. I had the new one for about two weeks when it wouldn't stay unfolded. One side would lock in place but the other would still collapse. The cable inside had snapped. So I sent that one back and am still looking for a great travel stroller.
Pros
Great Look
Cons
bad quality

i was very happy with the buggster, and the only thing i could fault was the brake system, hence i know longer have it.
Pros
light weight, easy to fold, comes with all accesories.
Cons
valco customer service was very poor! poor brake system, brake drops down when you go over a bump and clicks on the wheel.
