Your supposed to clean them?? LOL! Sorry lazy, stressful day!

The doubles pushchair red one or a more sporty version?

Have you read the manual - maybe theres bits you can take off and wash and just hoover the rest - seats/bottom bit etc - or soapy water and stick it outside - on a day like this should be dry in no time!

Its lime green so seems to show up the dirt . The manual just says soapy water, which have tried and not greatly effective, so was hoping someone might have some tips.
I think it just gets so much use, and living in a rural village it gets quite dirty.
Thanks anyway,

look on youtube, i think someone put a video on there about cleaning it using a power wash,
(came across it when searching for how to put mine together)

Jet wash and let it dry in the sun, it brings them up like new. My bro in law did my friends orange one and it looks great now

Thankyou, just watched the you tube clip, looks impressive, so when i clean my plastic outddor toys at the weekend i will try the pushchair too, so its got plenty of time to dry. Will let you all know how it goes,
Thanks for your help.

the hood,footwell/basket and seat cover for the doubles seat all come off and go in the washing machine on a gentle cycle,
the main seat is too big to fit in though,we washed ours in the bath with soap powder and rinsed well with the shower then hung it outside to dry,
looked like new after that

I took my doubles kit to get the stitching fixed and when he gave it back to me he had separated the metal frame from the cover. Now when I put it back together the top of the frame is outside of the cover and would be very uncomfy for my son. What am I doing wrong?!?
