Babystyle Oyster Switch
DISCONTINUED
The Babystyle Oyster Switch is a light umbrella stroller with fully reversible seat. Thanks to the full recline, the stroller can be used right from birth. You can also attach a car seat to create a travel system. The higher-placed handles are suitable for taller persons.
The Oyster Switch is based on the older Oyster Imp with non-reversible seat. After the redesign, it was released as Oyster Imp Switch. The name was later shortened to Oyster Switch.
