...the beige/brown one from farmers?
Anyone have one? How the heck does it go together!??! I have the rear wheels on. The canopy has a little clip thing on each side where it clips to the frame - one clips in fine, the other one is facing backwards, how do i turn it around to clip on the other side!? The front wheel i can't work out AT ALL. And i can't seem to make the boot cover fit. Nor can i work out how to recline the seat! I want to assemble if myself. Everything else i've had to give up and call on little brother to fix it. Which he does in 2 seconds and makes me feel stupid. The instructions are stupid. Halp! |

Lol I just brought one of these the other day, I had it up for 5 mins and decided i hated it! So its returned and i got a new one.
The wheels should just click straight into their holders, just push them in until they click, if they dont come out when you try to pull them then they are in correct. To recline the seat you got to push in a button on either side of the seat at the same time, you then can set it to 1,2 or 3. To fold it up is rather strange, I found it really hard to get it up from folded and then folded back down, you really have to PUSH to get it to work (but not so much you break anything) I thought the instructions were easy, if you get really stuck then post some photos and im sure we can help  -------------

Oooh why did you hate it? I will admit i stroller hunted for weeks then saw it and went right, that'll do, get it in the car out of exasperation!
I got the real wheels on fine but the front wheel is puzzling me - i can't seem to work out how it fits on. It simply doesnt fit! That one might be a job for little brother when i he gets home.
And the canapy - that might be easier to solve - there are the two plastic clip bits that slot in either side of the frame and click into place, right? Well, one does - the sides clippy bit is facing the other direction of its friend, i just need to pull it around and it'll slot in but it seems to be stuck in that position and im not even sure you can pull it around and maybe its defective!? Getting really frustrated with it so folded it up and will come back to it tomorrow. Or never. |

I didnt like the fact that the seat didnt lie completley flat, the seat part was always at a 90deg angle to the seat back. Also when DD sat in it, the seat part is too hard and she ended up slouching as she slipped forward. Most strollers have a soft seat not a hard board to sit on. It is also mega wide, and a pain to fold up, and is huge when it is folded. Also the most upright position is not as upright as other strollers, it is quite laid back and also made DD slouch.
I much prefer my Milano stroller, its a good solid thing, folds easily and works for DD, the only thing is its not rear facing, but I brought the other steelcraft stroller that has 4 wheels and a reversable handle, its a bit of a pain to steer but I muchly prefer it. Hmmmm the clips sound s bit strange, i remember when i put it together it looked like it wouldnt work but i tried it and it clipped in properly. I dont see how the front wheel doesnt fit, it should just slot straight in. have you taken the protective cover off it (black or white tube thing)? Otherwise try turning it the other way??? If you really decide its to much of a hassle take it back and get something else, there are ones that are much cheaper that work better IMO. Good luck and let us know how you get on -------------
