Don’t buy it, rent it

 Talking to friends one of the biggest costs they have with their young children is that they grow up so fast. From babe in arms to toddler, it goes in a flash and they are left with buggies, prams and all sorts of things that the children are to big for. When WhatsGoodOnTheWeb was told about Rentabuggy we thought what a genius idea so we thought we just had to give it a quick review. (Please Note: Golfers this website review is not for you!!)

About The Site
The concept of Rentabuggy is a great one. It’s like leasing a car but doing it for a pram or a buggy. You can rent the pram or buggy for as long a period as you need – holiday rentals for one week or more and long term rentals from three months onwards. The prices vary according to the make and model of the pram but compared to buying a brand new one every few months very competitive. An added advantage of the site to parents is that they can rent a buggy for a period and if they really like it buy one at a discounted price – A real try before you buy service.

What We Think
With families struggling at the moment due to the poor economic climate this idea is a real money saver – it avoids adding to the “pram mountain” and also means that as your child grows up you can keep changing the pram or buggy without having to find the money to buy the latest or best one on the market. We think Rentabuggy will continue to grow and it won’t be long before renting/leasing a pram becomes the norm for any growing family.
