After working with prams id avoid both brands all together! lol. (this is not only exp from selling them but dealing with customers that have endless problems) Id go for other brands that have so much more going for them. Baby Jogger, Icandy, bugaboo etc]]> Wed, 02 Apr 2014 11:07:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5864589&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5864589 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5861381&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5861381 Author: tan73

I was really keen on the mountain buggy swift, and it would have been my choice had DH and I been shorter! I am 5'10" and Dh is 6'2". So we went with the Urban Jungle. I liked the swift because it really is so compact and easy to undo and put up. We went in to Baby City and tried them all out. They have a weighted sack that you can out in to get the real feel. To be honest, I preferred the MB over Phil n Ted's purely because of the covering on the handle bars - I hat the texture and lack of durability of the foam covering on the Phil n Teds and much more prefer the MB rubber casing.]]> Sat, 15 Feb 2014 13:33:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5861381&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5861381 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5861360&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5861360 Author: _Soda_

we have a P&T dash and hubby and I can both use it comfortably as you can adjust the handle for height just by pushing a button. Its a bit of a pain to fold down i find, and you need two hands but once you get the hang of it its only a minor setback and I wouldnt get rid of it because of that. folds down nice and compact, is really lightweight to push around, love how you can get accessories like toddler seats etc (though you can for M.buggies too) I love my P&T all up! but it really is up to you, go to the shop, walk around with it, try folding it up and down, see how it fits in your car etc then make a decision :)]]> Sat, 15 Feb 2014 09:35:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5861360&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5861360 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5861336&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5861336 Author: navyandlime

This is an endless debate ;) In my experience with both - it is easier to collapse a mountain buggy and assemble with one hand (ie whilst holding babba) than a phil and teds - both great prams I'm sure though (you would hope with what they are worth haha) but for me personally the choice will be mountain buggy :)]]> Wed, 22 Jan 2014 21:00:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859448&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859448 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859438&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859438 Author: Tracy136649

Too many choices! Push them around the shop to see how they feel that's all I'd say. Good luck!   ]]> Wed, 22 Jan 2014 18:27:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859438&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859438 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859427&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859427 Author: KapitiGirl

Thank you for the reply! Much appreciated. I don't plan on having another baby for a wee while so i wont be buying Phil & Ted for that reason (extra seat). I just found out Mountain Buggy are releasing a new version in March called "Nano" which is 4 wheels but doesn't look very nice. However it won loads of awards at the convention in Las Vegas. Hmmm. ]]> Wed, 22 Jan 2014 17:34:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859427&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859427 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859422&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859422 Author: Tracy136649

We have a mountain buggy Swift. It's small and fits through doorways easy and easy to fold/unfold too. You can buy the attacment clip to set up with capsule to start with. A few different brand capsules are compatible. We had a friends capsule we borrowed for three months think it was safe and sound or something like that.   Then when baby got to heavy to carry on capsule then used the pram normally.
It depends what u are after. I think one of the Phil and teds you can add on another seat.

Hi all,

If anyone out there has any advice on which is better or worse in any range of prams, please let me know. I am feeling quite overwhelmed with the choices and have narrowed it down to Phil & Teds "Smart" with accessories such as bassinet (peanut), capsule and toddler seat. This pram is nice and small and seems to be a nice fit. Folds nicely. 4 wheels. I am only 5'3 and am finding most prams far too big. I also like the Mountain Buggy. Not sure which one i liked but its smaller and reclines right down for baby so dont need an attachment. However, i am unsure about the capsule with this pram. Is this available? I was set on P&T until i have seen almost every single person with a mountain buggy and raving about them. The one i saw is new and small. Had adjustable handle height which is perfect. Same price as the P&T but without any accessories. Same company when it comes down to it but i guess its personal preference. Dog will be in the boot so i need a pram that folds very easily and vice-versa.

Thank you :)]]> Wed, 22 Jan 2014 16:07:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43835&PID=5859418&title=phil-teds-vs-mountain-buggy#5859418
