I got rid of my M&P's for a phil and teds I love it so NO you can't have it:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
highly recommended though for just the reasons you say, also, very lightweight, fits into a very small car, bar so push and hold hands I can go on and go on and on................................................ .................................................. .................................... did I tell U I love my Phil & Teds;)

they are so expensive though... what ages can you have up to in the seats as the double seat at the bottom doesnt look big enough for toddlers and I have 2 aged 2 sometimes xxx

suppose you could use a buggy board for one of them i have seen quite a big child in the bottom seat though
Sorry for being so dim, but what are 'Phil and Teds'

Wonder if I can persude hubby. At the moment I have a Mothercare in front type double buggy and mindees buggy in hall and in the kitchen I have Williams buggy and pram. Do you think it would take 2 2year olds?(mindee A is probably the size of a 3 year old though). Hope to use buggy board once better weather arrives.

I was under the impression they were only for 1 baby and one toddler. Intereting to find out they arent!!!
They do have a good rep!

I use mine for two toddlers although mine are all trained to walk long distances from the age of about 2.5 so doubles seat is used as a 'just in case' and when not in use with a child it carries a lot of school bags!!
Paniers (set of two bags that attach an sides) are a must when out for the day and using both seats, I have just invested in some and already don't know how I managed without them.
I can thoroughly recommend though, little ones fight to be able to sit at the back so it can't be too uncomfortable, they just chat to whoever is walking, holding on.

same here!! I only use mine as a single now as lo 2,9month walks everywhere, and dd walks too 3,6months
I have had my poorly son in the front when he was 4 years and dd in back!! He had more than enough room
I think these pushchairs are like marmite you love them or hate them
I love marmite:D haha:laughing:

Does the bit in the back trip you up though? Looks like you would have to lean over it? Am currently debating between Phil and Teds and a Jane myself, so would be interested to know...

I dont notice the back seat, i put mine on a lot even if I probably wont use it, just in case I need it or I load it up with bags.
the back seat isn't any further back than the handle.
Like Rubybubbles said, you love em or hate em! I am a lover!
