Emmaljunga Brasilia Plus- Chassis, seat with hood and boot, bassinet with hood and apron. Toddler seat was a seperate
purchase with this model, needs an adaptor in order to be used with the bassinet, these take an allen wrench to put on/take
off. Features reversible seat, beautiful fabric, large wire basket. It is a traditional pram with chrome chassis ad fixed
wheels. Weight limit on toddler seat is 33 lbs. Extra seat can be left attached when folding. Best places to find- Ebay Australia
and UK. Very pricy even before shipping (expect to pay around $475 plus shipping for a used model)!
Emmaljunga Husky- Stroller is a traditional stroller with fixed wheels and a book fold. Came with boot. Toddler
seat was an additional accessory, also has a 33 lb. weight limit. Stroller can be folded with the extra seat attached though
it folds very long, it also requires a bit of effort to take on or off. It does fold very flat. This is a fabulously well
made stroller! Emmaljunga is no longer distributed in the US and is not supported by the company. Best place to find- Ebay
(new around 300$, used about 150$ shipped)
Zooper Double Up- Stroller came with footmuff (seat pad with zip-off top quilted section), front bar, and toddler seat.
This has swivel wheels and a large basket. It is a very plush stroller and a wonderful single. The toddler seat must
be removed to fold the stroller, two buttons are pressed in and it pops off and is replaced by the front bar. Though not as
well made as an Emmaljunga, it is a very good quality stroller and Zooper provides good customer support. The weight limit
on the toddler seat is 40 lbs. Best found- No longer available at all new, used are occasionally on Ebay (they go cheap, but
shipping tends to be high as the stroller is fairly heavy, in general total runs under $100)
Kiwi Explorer Buggy- This buggy by Phil and Ted's is different than the others in a few ways. It is a swivel wheel all-terrain,
with a seat that pops on the back. This extra seat provides more room for a toddler than the others. It is an
excellant option, especially for a more long term alternative. Phil and Ted's provides wonderful product support.
Numerous accessories are available to go with this stroller from rain covers, bug mesh/UV protection, paniers bags, cupholder,
sleeping bag, footmuff, etc. Has been replaced by the new E3 model (not shown on this page), but is still occasionally available.
Best found- Ebay for the Explorer and E3 models (cost varies but a new model with doubles kit can run upwards of $500,
used expect to pay around $200-275 plus shipping with double kit, depending on its optional accesories included).
Bertini Bidwell models and seat (not shown on this page) - A classic pram with four wheel steering, this striking
carriage is one of the very few current models that can add an additional spot for a sibling. It offers many features with
its boot and 4 wheel drive steering, as well as optional accesories like a bassinet, optional second seat to convert
it to a double, and diaper bags. Best found- Online shopping venues, baby specialty stores, Ebay (brand new it should be around
$400 for the carriage, $80 for the second seat, $160 for the bassinet; if found used, the stroller runs around $200 and up,
plus shipping).
