Babystyle Prestige S3D Chassis stroller reviews, questions, dimensions

The Babystyle Prestige with S3D chassis is a variable stroller system with an umbrella chassis. The S3D chassis is a complement to the retro-type [[babystyle-prestige-classic-chassis|Prestige] stroller. You can buy the umbrella chassis for a more compact variant, onto which you can place the same parts. It is easier to maneuver, but the ride is much less soft. In 2017, the S3D chassis was replaced by the Active Chassis with wheels with air-filled tires.

Your questions about the Babystyle Prestige S3D Chassis

1)

How much is this chassis, please?

Hello, it is no longer available, the producer discontinued it. You can get one with a bit of luck if looking at some second-hand options (personal ads). It was around £499 (but as a whole set, with the seat unit part).
