Babystyle Oyster Zero Gravity

The gravity-autofold lighweight wide-seat lightweight pushchair
.eli
see 7 parent reviews

The Oyster Zero Gravity is a 2021-released auto-folding iteration of the original, lightweight but spacious Oyster Zero by Babystyle. The difference between the Oyster Zero and the Oyster Zero Gravity is, first and foremost, in the automatic folding function that you only need to activate by clicking on the locking latch and activating a pedal with your foot. Apart from the simplified, almost magical fold, the Oyster Zero Gravity's updated now flip-flop friendly brake, a higher weight capacity, and a large and quiet ventilation peek-a-boo window were added, along with a new range of fabric colorways.

This lightweight pushchair still boasts wheels equipped with for-the-type unusually soft suspension as well as a very wide, roomy, while lie-flat seat unit with an extra-large canopy. The seat is forward-facing only, but there's a high-positioned carrycot with adapters available to purchase optionally to use from birth. A car seat capsule with a separate set of adapters can also be bought to use the Oyster Zero Gravity as a newborn-friendly travel system.

parents say thx^^

I just had to have it too

4
  • Huge seat unit, brilliant for older/taller children
  • Rain cover has good coverage
  • Amazing extendable hood
  • Swing out bumper bar so easy to get little one in and out
  • Good sized basket
  • Gravity fold
  • Folds up really compact and is fairly lightweight
  • Handle bar isn't adjustable
  • Seat doesn't have much padding

My friend got this stroller for her little girl and I just had to have it too! The seat is huge, the hood is huge, the raincover has amazing coverage, basket is a good size and the gravity fold is super cool! Absolutely love it!

  • Lightweight
  • Huge seat
  • Easy to fold
  • High weight limit
  • Multiple hood levels
  • Comes with raincover
  • Suspension
  • Big basket
  • Gravity fold can be temperamental
  • Brake is difficult to take off when wearing fit flops
  • The footrest seems to sit too close to the calf rest

My daughter is 4.5years old and has mobility issues. We have a disability buggy but it’s so big and bulky so we purchased this for her because of the huge seat and higher weight limit. The seat is so big she has plenty of room on either side and the hood is still also on its lowest setting. So pleased we found this buggy!

An absolutely clear choice for us

We love it. We had the Oyster Zero with our first, now got the Gravity for the second. The price even didn't get up! An absolutely clear choice for us. 😍

  • light
  • spacious even for a cosytoes
  • super foldable
  • easy to turn or pop up a kerb
  • loving the hood
  • travel system ready
  • non-adjustable parent handle
  • footboard kind of weak

As a lightweight pushchair that will last, I absolutely recommend it. It's a great help when you live on the 2nd floor with no elevator. Also, it's really practical. I watched the pushchair expert video ad it seemed overly positive but the pushchair is really nice!

I have two niggles, though - for my tall hubby, I'd prolong/make the handlebar adjustable. Second, I don't like how the footboard (legrest?) is kind of "weak", it feels like over time it might not hold. But that might just be a feeling.

A fantastic value, mainly for a second-time momma

  • a super roomy seat
  • the fold does the job for you
  • INCREDIBLE canopy size
  • high weight capacity
  • nice storage space with a pocked in the back
  • fantastic steering
  • smaller carrycot
  • the leg rest could be sturdier

A fantastic, incredibly roomy buggy. I LOVE how I can fit my older 4yo inside as well, with room on the sides to spare. The high-up bassinet is also a huge asset - not to have to be folding over too much. I would only make the bassinet longer inside... But overall a fantastic value, mainly for a second-time momma.

A very good buggy for a one-year-old

4
  • Weight
  • Self-folding
  • Canopy size
  • Seat space
  • Lie-flat position
  • Ease of use
  • Easy driving
  • Folds outwards
  • Not for heavy terrain

A very good buggy for a one-year-old. I can heartily recommend it.

I really like the shock-absorbing but I am kind of way of those front wheels - they do feel a bit too noisy on cobblestones and such.

Your questions about the Babystyle Oyster Zero Gravity

1)

Hi :) I have the Cybex Cloud Z carseat, can this be used with the oyster zero gravity chassis model? Thanks!

Hey, Mar,

With the Maxi-Cosi adapters, it should be ok on the stroller, however it is a heavy, larger car seat, so the center of gravity is better tried IRL so that the ride would be ok for you. But yeah, it should fit.

Hi there,

I feel like I have read a thousand reviews on strollers/pushchairs and just want to find the ‘perfect one’. I’m a single mum of two and I don’t drive, I need something sturdy as we go on ‘adventures’ and the school run, light and compact for travelling, a big basket (does any one know the weight capacity of the basket underneath?), long lasting and affordable. Of course comfortable for baby too.

Could this be the one? It seems to tick most boxes. I haven’t read anything regarding comfort wise? Baby girl is only 9 months but hoping this will last her the next couple of years.

Any information would be super appreciated or even any other alternatives.
Many thanks

Hey, Mia,

I did have the non-gravity one and can tell you that apart from a harsher terrain use, this is the best you can do at that weight point. The basket is officially 3kg but is rather roomy.

The seat is VERY roomy and will last you. I loved the canopy and also the weight, you feel that weight in some areas made simpler (not crazy much padding, a simpler reclining mechanism, not crazy all-terrain wheels - not the sturdiest stroller overall but holds up well) but I loved the suspension and the push comfort. For a sturdy model, you'd have to go a bit higher with the weight (and often the price) - like the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2, but I do believe for everyday life this will do.

I would definitely recommend this model, a nicely designed, practical one.
