I've had my Cherry for two years now. It's well built and made to last so even though it costs more than most, it should last for more than one child. The carrycot is a very good size and doubles up as a moses basket/over night bed. The only downsides to it are that it's heavy so not the easiest to lift on and off the wheels and that the mattress is very firm. The seat is good. It's a good size and my two year old still fits comfortably in it. It doesn't sit fully upright but that doesn't seem to bother him. It's more annoying that it doesn't lay completely flat and looks rather odd when fully reclined. The basket is huge and easy to access no matter what you have attached to the wheels. The frame can get stiff sometimes but nothing that WD40 can't fix. It is by far the easiest pushchair to push that I've ever had. Even friends who have a go with it are jealous. It folds down very easily and fits in the back of my Astra with plenty of room to spare for shopping. It looks great too and gets so many comments. The only other drawback I can think of is that the seat is not washable. I have it in Fudge (beige) and with a toddler it can get quite dirty.

We really love our iCandy cherry. Its light, feels lovely to push, looks good and fold up easily. Our only complaint is that after 1year it developed a fault with the chassis. We took it back to where we bought it (House of Baby, Bedfordshire) and it's so far taken 5 weeks and counting... The delay is caused by iCandy not having the part in stock. The repair is free under the warranty but we find a delay of this length unacceptable.

I bought the icandy cherry with carry cot, pushchair and maxi cosi car seat (adaptors required). I bought it because it looked like a traditional pram and loved the colour. Ideal for small babies who need to lie flat, we used it as our baby's bed for the first few weeks. Being able to use the base with car seat made it very versitile. Good storage space underneath. Pushchair can be forward or rear facing which is good. I think the accessories are expensive. The pushchair does not go completely flat, which would be better. Handle height would be better adjustable. I've really enjoyed my icandy and would recommend.

Buying a pushchair was the most difficult purchase we made before our baby, due to the fact that I am 5ft 2 and a bit of a weakling, so although I wanted a travel system, most on the market were far too bulky and heavy for me to lift. We also live on the second floor (no lift) and I take public transport often so it had to be lightweight but durable. I can honestly say that I love my icandy cherry and it definitely fits the bill, for pram/stroller which faces both ways, and adapts to hold car seat and is very easy to manoeuvre, fold and carry. The only negative for some people may be that it folds in two pieces, but this is not a problem for me. My baby was born 6lb 12 and stayed in the carry cot for 3 months, until she got fed up of lying flat. The rain covers are very easy to put on and I have never had a problem fitting through doors or on escalators. This pushchair is a great buy and since we bought ours I have seen lots of people with them!

I originally brought this as I thought we would still be living in a 1st floor flat and wanted the lightest thing on the market, also only have a small Peugot so needed it to fit in the boot. My daughter is now 1 and haven't had any issues with this.
Steering is easy and light, (better than my sisters Quinny) so simply to close and erect. Comfortable for baby and cosy with the footmuff on.
I use most days and haven't had a problem, only criticism is that the raincover always seems a bit tight to get on and cover everything. I also think for the money the materials look slightly cheaper than other systems on the market but I guess you are paying for the size and the lightweightness!

I have been using my icandy cherry for 14months and i love it, very light weight, i love to shop and this system is perfect for that, easy to manouvre in and around the shops unlike my friends quinny with those huge back wheels. and it holds tons of shopping again unlike the quinny. i used the carry cot when my daughter was tiny and it was just like having her bed on wheels she loved it. and she enjoys the choice of forward or rearward facing in the pushchair i recomend the cosytoes as it is very snug. over all a great travel system. i have the fudge colour and it can get very messy but the covers are easy to remove and was up like new. It is light weight, cosy, easy to wash covers , great size basket. Only bad points are that the parasol was flimsy and came unstiched easliy and the bracket that holds it on the pushchair broke.

I have been using the iCandy Cherry for ten months and find it to be an excellent purchase. It's very light, easy to fold and doesn't take up a great deal of room in the boot of the car. I would highly recommend this buggy.
