Bumbleride flyer

I have the opportunity to buy a used bumbleride flyer seagrass color. I am so iffy about it!! I am concerned about the smaller wheels - is that a problem? also is the seat too small? can you fit a two year old in there comfortably? what else can you tell me to convince me to buy it?????
Thanks!

I love this carriage because of the features of it. Everything is perfect EXCEPT the steering. A lot of people who have it have similiar issues. I called the company a few times; They suggest oiling it. We bought the oil & took apart the wheels, washed & oiled them. It does help, but it isn't long before it needs to be done all over again.

So thats definitely annoying.
The seat is very comfortable for my big 20 month old. I dont think its small at all. Again, love the carriage otherwise.
I would suggest testing this carriage before because not ALL of them have the same steering issue.
Good Luck!

I bought it at the end of 2009 but when I called about the problem they actually replaced it with their new chassis in 2010 - but it hasn't helped much Sad
