Bugaboo

4.5

(75)

"Dragonfly was by far the best, it’s light, compact and folds so easily."

"Everyone I know we a bugaboo loves them"

"Honestly for prams it’s worth buying the expensive brands, I’d recommend bugaboo or baby jogger. There are a lot of great deals on marketplace!"

"A bugaboo donkey (great for all terrain)"

"I’m obsessed with the Buggaboo Butterfly! It's just so light and easy to use."

"Super easy to use one handed and fits in the overhead compartments."

"Will fit in the overhead, go with that."

"It folds super compact, one handed open and close mechanism."

"Bugaboo!"

"The suspension is great."

Uppababy

4.6

(58)

"I love my Uppababy so much better."

"Uppababy all the way."

"I love my uppababy vista."

"Definitely. Got our Uppababy Vista on marketplace in excellent condition and almost 3 years later still use it all the time."

"I think you would love the uppababy minu. It can take the regular uppababy bassinet which are a dime a dozen on marketplace and it’s one of the sturdiest of its size."

"Hands down."

"I couldn’t recommend it highly enough."

"Couldn’t be happier."

"One of the best things is you don't lose the basket space when you add the second seat."

"Uppababy Vista pram (we had this one from our first and we’re pleased it converts to a double). It isn’t side by side but it’s well built and can be driven with one hand which is vital."

Redsbaby

4.2

(40)

"Redsbaby do amazing ones, we have the jive with the bassinet and it’s insanely easy to use."

"Love it."

"Cannot imagine changing to another pram."

"Bassinet is nice and big, huge under storage."

"It’s going on baby 3 and six years old now - no issues in that time."

"It was important for me that the pram not be too heavy."

"I have a redsbaby Jive and it's been great so far."

"The bassinet is huge, it is compatible with capsules and very sturdy."

"I honestly love it."

"We also have a Redsbaby metro and love it for the day to day."

Babyzen

4.7

(31)

"We’ve got the babyzen yoyo and it works well, folds well and is allowed in the cabin on planes."

"I love the yoyo. Easiest to fold and so so lightweight."

"Check out yoyo babyzen"

"It has a shoulder strap as well, so we could carry it around."

"Both are great. I’d try and get them second hand if you can tho!"

"Loved how light weight it was & very easy to maneuver."

"It handled the cobblestones honestly a lot better than we expected."

"Babyzen yoyo . Love mine. I’m only 45kg and so a small and light pram was a priority to me."

"The babyzen yo-yo is awesome, fits anywhere and is approved as cabin luggage. Love mine."

"This, is so good! It maneuvers so nicely. You can control it easily with one hand. Fold super easily too."

Joolz

4.7

(30)

"I have now bought the Joolz Aer+ and absolutely love it. It meets all the requirements, seems to be quieter than the YoYo to push and folds up/down with just one hand."

"You can't beat the Joolz Aer+. I've tried bugaboo butterfly and the yoyo and the Aer is just superior."

"It’s so light to manoeuvre and lift, and folds very compact."

"Also love my aer+! Wish we got it sooner truly!"

"Joolz aer plus was the only one that fits all of these."

"I love the Joolz Aer+. Not sure what you mean by flip flop friendly? It has a brake that you use with your foot but I’ve done it barefoot before and works fine."

"Super light, easy folding and good for planes as well."

"Also recommend Joolz Aer+, it's so light I can carry it up flights of stairs with the baby in it"

"Joolz aer+ is great! Very compact and easy to push particularly in the city"

"We just got the joolz aer and love it."

"Huge pneumatic tyres, they’ll roll over anything."

"It’s like a 4WD compared to our little hatchback Bugaboo Bee."

"We love our Mountain Buggy."

"I found the Mountain Buggy Swift great for ticking all of the boxes you mention."

"We have the MB Terrain with the carrycot attachment and has been great with a few caveats."

"Mouthain buggy Swift is the best of all the options if only because it's compact and really robust."

"I have a mountain buggy terrain. Pricy, but for me definitely worth it."

"Mountain buggy was the best off road one we had, it’s done off road walking, goes on the beach and been great."

"Another vote for Mountain Buggy!"

"Mountain Buggy (not the Nano) are tanks off road."

Baby Jogger

4.5

(22)

"Baby Jogger City Tour 2! We took it as carry on through numerous flights internationally and never had any issues getting it through. Also lies flat for nappy changes on the go."

"New favourite pram is the Baby Jogger City Mini GT. It’s 3 wheels with air tyres so goes well on all terrain, easy to fold one handed, compact, pretty lightweight."

"We have the baby jogger city mini."

Nuna

4.6

(14)

"We love it and I think it would be fine on the bumpy pavements too."

"Nuna triv next is a lightweight pram option that folds down very small."

"We also got the nuna triv next recently and I love it. Folds with the seat in either direction and there is room in the vw golf for shopping with the pram. It's light enough for me to lift too."

"I own a Yaris and the Nuna triv next fits perfectly!"

"I’ve now switched to a travel pram - Nuna Trvl - and it’s so much easier. I’ve been using it since baby was about 4 months and it’s a one hand fold down, really light (just under 7kg), lies flat."

"We just bought the Nuna Triv Next after trying that out in our boot (kia rio hatchback)."

"Actually bought a “expensive” travel pram from Nuna and wow what a flex to one hand fold and load in car."

"We loved nuna."

"Very light and easy to fold but pretty pricey."

"Nuna is a bit smaller and lighter than other brands but yet robust and easy to fold."

Cybex

"I love Cybex!"

"Cybex. Not cheap but not quite as expensive and outperforms other brands I tested."

"I highly recommend going to John Lewis or Mamas and Papas."
