i reserved one during their 10% off 2hr window and need to pick up / pay for it tomorrow, seam worth a punt @ £65.

ideally i'd by the a thule cougar 2 but they're £700 🙁

Maybe, but my eldest was too big for it at 4. And there wasn't much room for two either.

Keep an eye on Gumtree. I got a Chariot (pre-Thule, but just as good quality) with all the accessories for just over £100.
Much better built and a lot more sturdy. I'm not sure I trust cheap trailers.

Its heavy n basic, but does the job. Our twins (17 mths) a tight fit very much shoulder to shoulder. Only used on tarmac so far. Seats dont look very comfy but tbh neither do the cougars.

It's a steal at £65, only just got rid of ours with the kids at 5&9 (admittedly it was only used by the 9yo on the way back from places for a sneaky sleep.

This was it's last trip, filled to the gunnels with camping stuff and the 9yo.
