Ours has been trouble from start to finish, not only the design issues, but almost every moving part has broken. This reached a new low when the pram collapsed last week whilst crossing the road. Its been back several times for repair but now is quite frankly dangerous, and M&P literally couldn't care less. Eventually they gave us a new one which has the same problems, its now with trading standards. Never buy one of these.

It is easy to push and manovers well, come with all attachments required and has a good size storage basket which alot of competitors don't. With regards to the car seat we lifted it up in the shop before purchase realised that it is heavy and didn't buy it!! There are plenty of other options with car seats so try one of those.

As a new mum of a 7 week old baby I can honestly say I have never experienced such a badly designed stroller/pram. To connect and disconnect the car seat to the wheels you must be a weight lifter, and to even lift the car seat with the baby inside is an impossible task. The handles on the pram have a mind of their own and don't even try to use the shopping basket underneath as you won't be able to without lifting the whole carrycot off each time. In short a total waste of money. When I took this back to the shop and complained that it was too heavy to lift in and out of car and onto wheel frame (car seat meant to last until baby one year!!?? A total joke) I was told as there is nothing wrong with it I can't. So if you want to purchase this stroller I suggest you try carrying the car seat with the weight equivalent of a 2 month baby in it and see that you can first. The designers obviously have never given birth as you ache enough after that without added pressure! Am truly disgusted with mamas and papas and will never shop there again. Do not purchase the Mamas and Papas Herbie!
