We were going to test the I candy apple but decided to add on the PIP converter (Cute Name eh?) to make the apple into the pear. Its a great little (hmmm 44pounds of little) pushchair and is good for twins or two children of similar ages. The bottom seat is smaller than the top so your older child is always at the top, luckily everything is colour coded so way easier for mummy and daddy.
1) The seat and cot combinations are numerous, I still like my two seats facing me.

2) The top seat is big enough for our middle daughter (3 nearly 4) but our 5 year old son does not fit very well (though five year old's aren't usually in the buggy we tested anyway. The carry cot is too small for

3) It seems to cover most ground easily,rough terrain is a little tricky, steering is fine on all but the roughest surfaces.

4) The Basket is good but not the biggest around

5) The Handle has a good extension length for those taller parents

6) It takes only a moment to change from double to single and back

7) The Carry Cots are very small.

I know I haven't posted in a while but I went off to have my son. Now I'm back and ready to get back to business. The pilko pramette. The Mamas & Papas Buggy is a nice looking pram/pushchair and comes in some lovely designs. It is quick and easy to put up and down and transforms between the various modes easily too. It's very lightweight and can be used with a car seat to become a travel system. There are some bad points to this pushchair/pram as well though. In pram mode the baby's head is very low, lower than his feet. When testing the pram I had to put in a Moses basket mattress for more comfort as it looked quite uncomfortable. The pram mode is also quite small and on pushchair mode the harness is unattached at the back and my three nearly four year old said it was 'Not Nice' which means she found it uncomfortable. Overall an Ok stroller.
