Hi Hoping for some help/info/suggestions from knowledgeable mumsnetters! I have an 8 week old baby girl, and currently have a m&p pliko pramette. Slight problem - she HATES it! She'll lie quite hapily in her crip or hammock, but she really does not like the pram. Having had a good feel around I'm notsurprised, the padding is rubbish!

For a few other reasons I'm thinking about changing prams (quite fancy having the option of rear facing, easier to attach car seat ad the Pliko has to be in buggy mode, possibly a seperate carry cot, and something that folds easier (I find the Pliko really difficult, one handed my a**e!) Because we have the car seat and isofix base (both of which we love) we'd like to stay with M&P - so, can anyone give any opinions? We quite liked the look of the skate, but it has some not so good reviews. As far as I can tell they changed it this year, but I'm not sure what changed - carrycot possibly? Can anyone help? We would be considering buying second hand so if the skate has changed considerably iit would be good to know. Are there any other M&P particularly worth considering?

Only strict criteria is it has to work with the primo viaggio car seat, and fit in our boot but I think they all will (new megane, boot is massive compared to our old yaris - another reason we went for the pliko in the first place!). We've got a Skate, last years & we love it.

The seat / carrycot - its the same unit, is really well padded. It is a bit fiddly, but that's because there are so many options on it. The Wolf Gift Anne Rice Pdf Downloads.

Baby is 13 months now, so has been in the 'seat' rather than 'carrycot' for 8 months now, we still have it on the highest notch up the chassis, which means everytime we collapse the pram, we have to move that up & down the chassis, but it means baby is closer to us. We always have it parent facing - I'm partially deaf so don't want her to know forward facing & then not want to go parent facing, so we have to take the unit off the chassis every time we collapse it. We also change the handlebar height & angle all the time, I'm a shortarse & MrD is tall, so another fiddle, but again for our benefit. I find it a dream to push & steer.

I can easily put it up & down on my own - albeit in two pieces. I love the fact we can be out with the seat in upright mode & she looks tired, so without taking her out, I can move it round to lying flat. Whilst there is no 'basket' the net bottom & springy straps can hold loads - I've had a full big blue ikea bag on it with no problems.

We've got the sunshade/insect net which is great in the hot weather. I've never braved it on public transport - I drive or use a sling on buses/tubes. We have an Aton car seat, not the PV, but it is a real bonus being able to put the car seat straight onto the chassis.

Thanks mamatomany. I think, looking at the switch manual, that the autocruise probably does fit, but that's not so hot about the which report as you'd at least want the option if you pay for an in car carrycot, grrrr.

I think a carrycot would be quite useful once we get to the stage of her sleeping in the pram as our livingroom is up stairs, so we have to take her out of the pram if we've managed to her her to sleep, which then wakes her up. We mainly went for the pliko because it fitted the old car, hubby was adamant the car would be big enough for a baby, being 3 door wouldn't be a prob, bla bla bla. 6 weeks after she arrived we bought a new car Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the pliko ain't so great. We used it with the car seat on it yesterday and the blooming thing got stuck. Took two of us to get it off, which isn't much use really. Oh well, what is it they say about buy cheap buy twice?!
