Britax B-Motion 4
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.

Parent reviews of the Britax B-Motion 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Lightweight
- Foldable
- Well maneuverable
- For moderate terrain
I bought the stroller for my first daughter. We needed a lightweight and good storage. We bought a Römer bassinet and a Römer car seat and now with my second daughter I am completely satisfied.
For me the absolute top. We had the 4 Plus, and I can't praise it enough. Little one has been there since 5 months, slept there with no problems. A little heavier, but if it's going to have good stability, it has to be. One handed control, smooth ride. I was a little bothered by the access to the basket, but that was just a detail 😉
- Compact
- Smaller compared to the Tako Ballila Slim, which is our main stroller
- Heavy
- Difficult to operate
- Cannot be put into full sitting position
We only use it as a stroller for the car.
- Even for bad terrain
- Lies flat in a fully reclined position
- Plenty of seating space
- Folds with one hand
- Takes up little space when folded
- Large canopy
- Entirely washable
- Cannot face the parent
- Lacks leg rest positioning (older version)
Superb pushchair, we were very happy with it.
I bought the stroller second hand, with many accessories, for my 2,5 year old daughter for those occasional rides. To my surprise, it is quite lightweight, easy to maneuver. It handles snow or any uneven surface with no problem. When folded, it takes up little space in the car. I have tried several strollers, but this one is the best. I regret not buying it back when we were dealing with our first pushchair.
- I had a limited edition - design
- bad center of gravity
- hard to ride
- clumsy
- the wheels were frequently deflating (several times a month we had to inflate back up)
- bad folding
- always when folding, I slammed my hands and stuffed the mess from the ground into the hood
- bad positioning of the back - it was impossible to pull 2 straps at the same time, one always got stuck
- leg positioning
For me, a terrible pram. Never again, after a month we passed it on. Bad center of gravity, folding was bad, I had bruises from it (maybe because I'm shorter).
Too heavy, bad back positioning, badng leg positioning, bad manoeuvring. I was expecting much more from it, as everyone was praising it, and for me it was a complete disappointment. But a hundred people, a hundred tastes...
A very good pushchair. From the fourth month it carried our little one thanks to the fact that it can be put in full recline. It still serves us, and it was second hand. As a disadvantage I perceive its higher weight – in case you have even a larger, heavier child - it is then harder to handle.
Your questions about the Britax B-Motion 4
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.
