I started with a milano 3 wheeler and the biggest annoyance was the bulk. I used the capsue with the pram alot with Jake but not at all with Tyler.
It was easy to steer but the second major annoyance was that it was not easy to fold down AT ALL and drove DP nuts whenever he had to do it.
Cost $299 on special in 2007 inc capsule.

I upgraded and got a secondhand 2007 P&T e3 in great condition off TM for $150 with doubles kit, sunshade, raincover and a few other bits and pieces and its great. Better long-term investment I reckon coz its so versatile. ]]> Fri, 02 Jul 2010 09:24:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30587&PID=1084820&title=milano#1084820 <![CDATA[Milano : Hey ladies, I&#039;m looking...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30587&PID=1075185&title=milano#1075185 Author: suzi_q122

Hey ladies,

I'm looking at buying the Milano Apollo 3 wheeler; plus capsule.

Can anyone tell me the pro's and cons?

It's a battle between me and babies father; as he is paying. But it's so hard to fight for something I don't know too much about!! All I know is that it's light; serves the same purpose as snap n go wheels, fits in my boot... etc

Thanks :)

I'm pretty sure it was going for about $350. I got the Milano Tech Rider Travel System for $300 and it's usually $330.


Stroller was on sale for $299 and capsule for $119..i got both in the grey/black swirl[/QUOTE]

We got our milano on special for 299 or maybe it was 399. Anyway. Get the base for the capsule cause my seatbelts were not long enough to go around it and hold it in. I think its a jap car thing. My freind had her seatbelts lengthened to fit a capsule, EXCPENSIVE. rather than paying $60 for the base. Heaps on TM by the way.

We got our dash graffitti from babysafe for $749 it comes with the doulble kit aswell. Babysafe wasn't cheapest but I got a $30 cedit for spending over $500 so i gto the raincover half price. Oh babysafe has the sport the cheapest I can find  too with free delivery.

We had the Milano 3 wheeler in the gray and black with matching capsule and the base as well. I hated the stroller. After about 5 months we got a small umbrella stroller and just used the 3 wheeler for walks and at the beach. We sole the 3 wheeler and bought a P & T dash about a year after the umbrella stroller and I love it. The dash is longer folded up than the milano was. I see heaps of the milano ones around so they are really popular.

I had a mitzi mirage 2 door. The milano fittedin the boot but only just. The capsule didn't fit to well in the back the passenger seat couldn't be used with the capsule in there which was a pain in the bum. So we got a new car. In which it fits fine.

LA I started with a steelcraft strider 3.. its a lovely pram but you get what you pay for.

Its rickety and bulky (doesnt fit down narrow aisles) hard to collapse and really a PITA. I recently upgraded to a P&T Dash and I LOVE it.

They are a great pram and well worth the extra money IMHO. The fold nice and flat too so would be surprised if they didnt fit in most cars....]]> Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:28:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30587&PID=886583&title=milano#886583 <![CDATA[Milano : Thanks for the headsup!

1. Babycity do laybys, and its done on price as to how long you get to pay it off.

I got a milano quadtech stroller/capsule pram (I think thats what its called!!) it was 300 and I just had to pay a 10% deposit and then I had 6 weeks to pay it off, I think it's anything over 600 is 12 weeks... You can also ring and ask to check!

2. When I got my pram I didn't know the capsule came with it, the lady said all the capsules fit the prams and the capsule bases (coz I was going to buy another capsule until I realised!) So yes it should fit.

3. Not sure how often they change...

i have a couple of questions (i have asked these questions on their website but they dont seem to answer!)

firstly do babycity do layby? if so for how long

does anyone know if the Milano Capsule Black Swirl fits the Milano 3 Wheel Stroller? i know there is other capsules that do but i REALLY like the black swirl

and how often do they change their colours for the Milano 3 Wheel Stroller? they had grey and red now they have have changed to plum and beige but i dont like these colours and am wondering how long i will have to wait for new colours
