Britax B-Motion 4

see 42 parent reviews

The Britax B-Motion 4 is a four-wheel stroller with a non-reversible seat. You can also choose the more versatile three-wheel version, known as the Britax B-Motion 3. The B-Motion is heavier than the strollers of the lower B-Agile series, however, it is also more spacious and can handle even a rougher terrain thanks to the air-filled tires with suspension. You can adjust the handle by rotating it. Folding is very fast and requires only one hand. The mechanism of harness adjustment is also one-handed. The seat is slightly reclined even in the upright position. You can recline it flat. It is not possible to adjust the leg rest, you can however slightly push it upwards. Using the optional soft carrycot, a carrycot or a car seat you can create any desired set. It is also available as a complete stroller system.

parents say thx^^
  • compact
  • full recline
  • adjustable handle
  • for city and off-road
  • no leg positioning
  • the canopy is not long enough
  • difficult to access basket

A light pushchair that handles terrain well.

Amazing pushchair

5
  • Super spacious seat
  • Huge canopy
  • When folded, perfect size even for a small car boot
  • Strap reclining is hard for me

An amazing pushchair.

The best

The best stroller 😄

Satisfaction for sure

4
  • Easy folding
  • Easy to operate (even with one hand)
  • Extensive accessories (if you buy them)
  • Option to buy a bassinet and a car seat
  • Positioning of the backrest
  • Lack of footrest positioning
  • Seating cannot be turned

For me, satisfaction for sure. I bought it second hand, but with a lot of accessories. Cool is the organizer on the handle, but also the tray instead of the handle for the baby. It is easy to operate with one hand. It folds easily and fits in a small car. The only thing I miss is the positioning of the legs, but that can be added. And also the recline positioning is not very well solved. Otherwise, it's big enough and the little one sleeps comfortably in it.

Very satisfied and recommend it

4
  • easy to fold e.g. in the car
  • comfortable, spacious for baby
  • cannot be driven with one hand
  • harder to recline when the child is asleep

We are very satisfied with the stroller and recommend it.

Nice handling

4
  • spacious
  • quick to fold
  • nice handling
  • not sitting upright

:-)

Happy with it

4
  • spacious
  • easy folding
  • good handling
  • there is no full - upright seating option

Happy with it :-)

Reliable and quality stroller

4
  • Extra-large canopy with small closable window on top
  • When lying down, the net is also behind the child's head (the back part rolls out)
  • Sufficiently large and durable inflatable wheels that cushion uneven surfaces
  • For bigger bumps, there is suspension at the back and front
  • Large basket at the bottom and also a large pocket for necessary items and toys
  • Large carrying capacity
  • More expensive original accessories and add-ons

Super reliable and quality stroller that can take anything. Both for riding in the city and on bad roads and pavement. Large enough wheels front and back.

Sturdy

3
  • spacious
  • fixedsturdy
  • fits other brands of accessories
  • inflatable wheels - possibility of puncture
  • harder to climb the kerb
  • inability to position the leg rest
  • net on the canopy after unzipping

Sturdy stroller, in my opinion more suitable for older/larger babies who no longer sleep in the stroller - my son was bothered by dangling legs when sleeping.

I would buy it again

4
  • beautifully controllable
  • spacious
  • excellent for off-road and in the countryside
  • I find folding impractical
  • harder to reach basket

Happy with this, I would buy it again.

Your questions about the Britax B-Motion 4

1)

Hi!

Would you happen to know, if the Britax B-Motion 4 stroller is compatible with the Britax B-Agile 4 front winter wheels? I´m struggling to find an answer from anywhere or anyone. In the pictures online they look pretty much the same.

Best wishes, Jo from Finland

Hello, Jo,

We tried with just the usual (non-fixed) front wheels, and yes, the front axle of the Britax B-Motion and the Britax B-Agile lines is compatible with one and other wheels. It is not a perfect solution, but it can be clicked in, yes.

Fyi, even the rear wheels are compatible, but one needs to swap the internal axles (the small silver ones - to use the B-Motion type axles even with B-Agile wheels if on the B-Motion pushchair and vice versa) as well, otherwise the brake wouldn't work.

With this non-swivel axle, I never tried, but it makes sense it should be compatible. However, the thing is that the B-Agile terrain axle is EVA foam only, so it's going to be lower to the ground than the rear wheels with tires of the B-Motion.

There was, in fact, also a B-Motion fixed-wheels axle available in the past, but not anymore. Maybe it's worth checking in classifieds.

In any case, it should be compatible, yes, but it's not the best fit.
