Quinny yezz on the move. .

In anticipation of our first air trip as a family of three with our growing girl of 21 months we purchased the Quinny yezz. Our colour of choice is Purple Rush, we did test it out in store in the Pink which is lovely but I thought the darker one would keep clean longer. It is dear for an umbrella type buggy at 199.99€ and an extra 30 for the rain cover which we also bought, but if you went to any of those mothercare information evenings and received your mother & baby 10% discount card you can use that against it which was handy so it softened the blow a bit! Our little trip isn't for another 6 weeks but that doesn't stop me stressing, the good kind if that's existent. In preparation we have begun testing it out and getting a feel for it. Its passenger finds it very comfortable, she sat in it voluntarily for an hour reading before bed the night we brought it home and put it together. She has slept a full nap in it and quite likes pushing it around herself with teddy rabbit in her place. We've taken it on a few shopping trips where of course it was dreamy to push even my 13 year old shopping buddy was amazed and enjoyed wheeling it & doing some 360's as he called them, much to growing girls delight! The only true travel test so far has been a bus journey to the city centre and back. It is manageable one handed if you turn down each handle individually and there is enough stiffness in the frame to accommodate that mid collapse and vice versa. The pic shows how neat it was on a Dublin Bus (the luggage shelf was full so I took it to the seat with us) Lots more pics and video including unboxing photos which are quite funny considering it's two pieces in total! I can't wait to test it out at the airport, on the plane (I read one review where they let it go in the overhead bin, dying to see if we can) and our destination, and of course I will let you know how we get on!
