How does a supposed NZ export dream go so wrong? Mike Booker at Idealog looks at why the wheels fell off Mountain Buggy.

I don't think research that came out last year showing that "children benefit from facing and interacting with the person pushing them (usually the parent); that children facing forward may be emotionally impoverished and isolated" would have helped either.
