 Topic: Prams and Nappy Bags
Posted: 24 February 2008 at 8:39am |

Hi All *Waves*
What prams do you have? I want to buy a new one? What is the Steelcraft like? Thats the one i have my eyes on..
Also i HATE my nappy bag, its from farmers and kinda like a backpack, i want a satchel on that i can hang over the pram handle instead of having to take up all the room in my storage basket thing..
What nappy bag do you have? Does it have lots of room? I like to take nappies, toys, a blanket, 2 bottles and some food for Kylah, will it hold all that? Keeping in mind i use MCN so bigger that sposies..

Theres a thread about them in the Product Review thingy- I think everyone who has them likes them. I think they look pretty funky 
I've got an OiOi Messenger- its brilliant!

we had the backpack from Farmers and I also got sick of it taking up all the room in the basket below, plus it was hard to get in and out. I went to the $2 shop and bought a couple of metal hooks that looked like and S. I hooked one side over the pushchair just below the padding on the 'handle' and the bag strap hooked into the other end of the 'S' - I obviously did this for both sides of the pushchair. It was a lot easier and worked quite well

I've got a Kaapochi satchel and I love it, DH also loves it cause it looks like a "man bag"!
As for buggies, I have a MB Elite, love love love it to bits!
Beware though with putting a satchel on the handle of the buggy, if its got too much in it and is heavy it will tip the buggy. My satchel does this to my MB, but I am just very aware of it and don't let the handle go if I have the satchel on the handle. Most of the time I have the satchel diagonally across my body though.

Hi! *waving back*
Yeah, GO the Gubby satchel!!! I got mine online through Ferrit - all the shops here only seemed to have the Gubby Sling Bag (similar bag though). I love the stroller clips on it (much easier to walk without the bag banging into your knees), and even though I've down-sized, it still seems to fit all Ella's stuff. Though I wouldn't be able to fit a blanket in there as well.
As for the pram, we've got the Bertini jet. It's been great, but is bulky, and Ella can't sit fully upright in it (but she still tries  ). It's good if you think you'll be pushing 2 babies in a pram, because the toddler seat clips on so easily. I've used it with 2 kids in it and it's easy enough.

I might buy the satchel too.. I dont have to have her blanket in it. I can live with that in the pram its just i have a big backpack style one and it takes up the whole storage basket thing, not to mention really difficult to get in and out.
Iv heard some bad things about the steelcraft now.. that its difficult to use with bigger kids like toddlers etc as it tips easy??
Might have to rethink that idea, do you think i am wasting money buying a new pram? Of course i will sell mine first before i buy another one that way i dont have to put much in, i just dont find mine easy to walk with around the botanic gardens and walk areas like that.. Its 4 wheel and has plastic wheels..
andie, that bib top you bought Kylah is FANTASTIC i love it to peices, i have been looking in TnTs here for some! Somehow DF manages to get food EVERYWHERE so when he feeds her i put that on her first its great! Thanks

I have a phil and teds sport which I just brought last week and love it ( I used to have a baby love jogger) . I also have the gubby satchel and its great big enough for all the junk I tend to carry round.

Cant help on the nappy bag. But we have a BabyLove 3 wheel buggy from baby factory (was $250 full price but we got it on special) and it has been fantastic, esp for the price. Dont know if you can still get them tho. Is it going to be for big walks or just around the shops?
