I'm looking for a small, lightweight pram that can be parent-facing

Hi Elli,

I'm looking for a small, lightweight pram that can be parent-facing.

I'm very short, not even 5' and our car is pretty small, so a small lightweight buggy with a little fold is what I'm looking for.

My little one is currently 4 months and quite chubby and big for his size, so something with a bigger weight limit would be better.

Other things I would love in a pram are easy fold, smooth and easy to push.

We don't need any fancy all terrain type things.

Looking forward to hearing your suggestions.

Hey, kat,

I personally would go with the Cybex Mios here. It can take a higher weight, it is just over 8 kg, and very nimble while sturdier than most. I was very happy to use it, actually.

Other than that, look at the Cybex Eezy S-Twist or the Recaro Lexa Elite for a quality-enough compact reversible stroller. I would not go for anything cheaper, it will be small and rattly with a chubbier baby especially.

Your -very berry- Eli.

Now, this is your place to ask. I'm listening.
