Which pushchair would suit?

I've been looking at pushchairs (i was a bit of an addict until Nathan got too old to justify a new one) but I really don't know what would suit what I want/need.
What I need is: parent/forward facing, light (ish) to push, easy to turn, a handle bar (no seperate handles) lay flat, carrycot, suitable for a car seat (just in case), big/decent sized basket, easy to fold, suitable until approx age 4, needs to have a high backrest (only one I found to suit ds from the age of 2 was a baby jogger).
My budget it approx £400 but could push to £450.
Now heres what I don't like, bugaboo bee (yes I know it'd be perfect but I just can't like them for some reason ) Quinny, Stokke.

Is there a pushchair at all that meets my requirements?

one of the Icandys? probably the Cherry Ive got the apple and its a fab pushchair, i had tons when i has ds2 but this time just this one as its suited everything so if the cherrys just a good i think youll be sorted its smaller and lighter than the apple but i think everything else is the same

GAH I was reading your requirements thinking BEE, BEE!!

I likey the look of the cherry, now to find somewhere that stocks near me so I can look at it irl!

I wouldn't buy another cherry. We ended up getting a new buggy before ds was 2 as the wheels and brake no longer worked.It was at the end of the warantee and i candy said we would have to take it back to where we bought it to get it fixed whuch was 250 miles away. It has to be taken apart to fold down.We decided not to bother and got a sola instead. That isn't going to last beyond 3 years old tho I don't think.

The iCandys can be folded in one piece in forward facing mode. But yes, it's a bit of a bugger when you have to take it apart to fold, I think most parent facing pushchairs are like that though.

Thanks that's interesting to hear.
