I have it for the same reason. I have liked it so far - lightweight and fits thru doorways. One thing though, for the NB, although it lies near flat I think you still need some sort of cocoon or support for a 2-3 months.(probably the same for most prams anyway). I preferred it to the phil n teds type system cos I didn't want one child to always be looking at the back of another seat or out sideways! We use it with a car seat adaptor too but find it much heavier to steer.
