Good Points
Cheaper than a "Buggy Board". Easy to put together. Easy to attach to and remove from pushchair. Allows me to get my 2 children from A to B with minimum fuss. Eldest can get off and walk if she wants to (where appropriate) and get back on again. She can sit down (which is useful for walking with snacks). Swivel wheels make it surprisingly nippy.

Bad Points
Doesn't fold down, so bulky to store. If (like my little girl) your child wants to stand on the top step, the weight doesn't go directly down through the wheels, making it a bit difficult to steer - this is not a design flaw though! Puts you in an awkward position for pushing, but any buggy board will do that. Takes up a lot of floor space when attached (difficult to park at playgroups). When standing, child has to hold on to pushchair handles, which doesn't leave a lot of room for the person pushing to hold.

General Comments
I love my Litaf Seat 2 Go Buggy Board. I only have 17 months between my two children, and I didn't want to buy a new pushchair. My eldest was walking at 12 months, but was still too little to walk any distance. For the first 7 or 8 months I managed with a pushchair and baby carrier, but I needed something else when the little one got too heavy. This saved me from having to buy a new pushchair. Cheaper than an actual "Buggy Board", with the advantage that your child can sit down if desired. Unlike the other reviewers I found it easy to put together (but then I am a flat pack veteran). It is essentially in two pieces: the step part - which once put together doesn't come apart - and the two "arms" (which attach to the pushchair to allow you attach the step part) - in various shapes/sizes to fit to different pushchair chassis. Mine is a Pliko with a square tube chassis. The other attachments are for a round tube chassis of different diameters. It detaches easily from the pushchair, and the "arms" that fit to the pushchair, fold down so they don't stick out, so it doesn't stop me from folding my pushchair down. I just wish that the step part would fold down on itself (without compromising safety - obviously) so that - for example - when we go to playgroup, I could detach the step from the pushchair, fold it down and stash it in the underneath shopping basket. Or if I needed to fold the pushchair down altogether (for going on a bus or train, for example, or storage at home) I could slip it into the cosy-toes. It doesn't, and I think that is its major disadvantage. My eldest prefers to walk, but if we're in a hurry or on a main road I make her get on it. She does like to stand on the top part though (which it is not designed for) so that she can see over the top. Also, she fell off it once. We were crossing a road, she was trying to stand up (from sitting) and I set off to cross the road. The momentum threw her forwards (backwards from the direction we were going) and she fell off head first. Again, this is not a fault of the board, if she had been sitting, as intended, it would not have happened, but just something to watch out for. Kids will be kids and some do fidget more than others, and if it happened to mine, it could quite easily happen to someone else.



All-in-all a top product. We have definitely had our money's worth.
