Baby Design Mini

see 4 parent reviews

The Baby Design Mini is the smallest and simplest Baby Design stroller. One of its biggest advantages is the low price. In addition to the stroller, you get a footmuff and a practical parent tray. The Mini is very light and suitable for easy everyday rides. The seat unit can be reclined flat. The height of the bumper bar can also be adjusted. The extendable hood with visor protects the passenger from the elements. When shopping, you will appreciate the XXL basket. The height of the handle is suitable for not-so-tall persons.

parents say thx^^

Superb for tiny lifts

3
  • Small and really narrow, one of the narrowest
  • Really light, about 6,5 kg
  • Child sits well
  • Easy to fold
  • Large shopping bag
  • Counter
  • Pocket on the canopy
  • Large canopy, shadowing perfectly
  • Handling is really difficult - wrong balance - need to try with a child, otherwise you won't find out!
  • Wheels are for one or two seasons, terribly soft foam
  • Canopy could be washable without the need to unscrew and disassemble
  • Short leg rest with thick bar that goes just past the knees of a bigger child

Superb stroller for tiny lifts, we use from early spring to late autumn - not only for trips, everyday. I do get a bit of a workout when turning, but I've gotten used to it. It is the worst to steer on smooth surfaces (shops). If you plan to buy one, load a kid in it at the store, have them load something heavier in the basket, too and you'll see if you're ok with it.

Handy and practical

4
  • compact
  • light
  • even fits into a Fiat Seicento
  • possibility of reclining
  • relatively large shopping basket
  • thin for winter, but can be used with a thick footmuff

Excellent for travelling by car, train, bus. It is very handy and practical. It has a beautiful design, simple and playful.

The best we have had so far

5
  • you can take it up the stairs - it has standardized wheels
  • the canopy covers the whole seat
  • easy to fold
  • you can unfold it with one swipe
  • it can be positioned almost fully lying down
  • great tray
  • spacious basket says up to 3 kg
  • we found nothing

For us the best stroller we have had so far. Lightweight, nimble, goes up stairs easily, protects baby from wind and light rain. :-)

  • Light
  • Large basket that can carry even heavy stuff
  • Extendable hood
  • OK on terrain

As a buggy for trips and with a 2yo, ideal. Lightweight, and my son could have a nap inside.
