A big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff
Does anyone know the weight limit for this pram? I've tried looking everywhere and I can't find it or I find conflicting answers.

My 4 year old is 18kg (she's been using the toddler step) and my 3 year old is 12kg, are they both too heavy to have on at once? It pushes fine with both on, but thought I should find out the actual weight limit.

Thanks.

Don't know what the actual weight limit is but I use it with my 12kg DS2 in the front and my 20kg DS1 on the back.

I think its 18kg in the seat and 15kg on the back but as with the previous poster I used a pliko with a 12kg child in the seat and 18kg child on the toddler step. The PP is my sister and we are talking about the same pram (ie it was mine and now its hers) so it has been carrying these weights for 2 years and still going strong.

I just checked the book and there is no mention of a weight limit.

I've heard from someone who heard from someone that Peg Perego say it's fine as longs as it's not obviously straining under the weight. Weight limits are mostly estimates and most prams are tested at with certain weights to satisfy safety standards. The Australian Standards say a pram needs to hold 15kg and so they are tested to that, but that is not to say they wouldn't also pass with 20kg. I really wouldn't worry about it.
