Just wondering , for those that have the newer model of the vibe, have you had any problems with the wheels? or has the problem been fixed ...
.....we are trying to decide between the Vibe and the Dash , so opinions on both would be great too if you can (I know there are threads here, but I want my own thread about it ,haha ) -------------

There was a problem with the front wheel in the early models. We've been assured it has been fixed and only the early stock has the issue.
We've of course only tested ours around the lounge so far..... ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Kelly I do believe the front wheel issue with both the dash and the vibe has been sorted!
But to be honest, even if you did get a faulty one... they are so good at replacement/repairs that its a non issue. Kiwibaby were fab and gave me a loaner as we had to wait for the new shipment (which was a few weeks). They dropped the loaner off to me and collected the faulty one and then dropped my new one off and collected the loaner... P&T replaced no questions asked. I highly recommend both companies for their great service! (And Kiwibaby are very competitive with their prices too....) -------------

We just had to put a bit of grease on the front wheel and its been fine. My friend must have gotten the earlier model and had to get the framing replaced, but they did that in 2 days. So pretty good servive I think. ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

You should also have a look at the Explorer. We nearly got the Dash but now that the Explorer has come out we went for that one instead. ------------- Here we go again, another baby on it's way!

| How have you found the new Explorer? I went in to check it out, as I dont like the clip thingy at the back for reclining on our sport model - but the assistant in the shop kept putting the sun shade on, then everytime she went to move it, it popped off. This put me right off. Have you had this problem?? Thanks. |

I haven't gone mine yet, it's still on order. But I found the shop assistants at Baby City useless. They had no clue what so ever.
The service and knowledge of the people from Baby on the Move was much better and when they demonstrated it and I played with it it seemed fine. ------------- Here we go again, another baby on it's way!
