Summary
The phil&teds promenade stroller certainly is high spec and it is a luxury stroller. It is comfortable and practical in many ways. Although heavy, it is easy to maneuver. It has good suspension and wheels with mud guards. But this 2012 promenade stroller is lacking in some areas.
Phil & Teds Promenade stroller requires two hands to fold, but the fold is not difficult. It will probably not fit in smaller cars but if you have a large trunk then this is not a problem.
Phil and Teds Promenade stroller is not cheap, but you would not expect a stroller of this caliber to be cheap. Overall, this stroller is well designed and has quality construction with a high specification and a good range of accessories. If you have the money, the Promenade stroller is good value and will last a lifetime for one or two children.
