Bugaboo Fox 3 vs iCandy Orange 4
Both are full-size pushchairs, and they weigh about the same. The Fox 3 is no longer made (the Bugaboo Fox 5 replaced it), so you would be buying it used.
The verdict
Choose the Fox 3 if you want
On paper it doesn't beat the Orange 4 on anything we measure, so it comes down to how it feels to push, and price.
Best for: Parents after a rugged full-size pram at a secondhand price
