Britax Go Big

see 12 parent reviews

The Britax Go Big is the highest, high-end version of the Britax Go and the Britax Go Next. It is a stroller or a stroller system in a functional Scandinavian design. The larger wheels with good suspension can handle all kinds of terrain. The all-terrain wheels have foam-filled tires, so there is no danger of getting a flat tire or having wheels full of small stones. The carrycot is placed higher, so that the baby is closer to you. The seat, on the other hand, is situated lower to the ground, so that the child is able to get in on its own. The Go Big is the first stroller in the Go series with a seat reclining fully, suitable from birth. You can also attach a car seat onto the stroller, creating a travel system. The basket’s weight capacity is up to 10 kg, you can fit in even a bigger load of shopping.

if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^

I don't have a single fault. It's generous, cushioned, great for any terrain.

  • Large
  • Suspension
  • Wheels will go over any terrain
  • The bottom basket has a 10kg carrying capacity, you can carry a large load of shopping in it
  • Folding
  • Handling
  • Reclines flat
  • Accessories (but you have to buy them extra)
  • I have nothing to complain about :)

I would buy it again. We have a 3 in 1 system. We used the bassinet for a long time because it was longer than the standard ones. The seat unit is alright :)

For me the best really. It's not a designer stroller for fashion conscious moms, but it's the most practical stroller in the sense that it fulfills absolutely everything for a practical mom - for me for sure.

  • Suspension
  • Large storage space
  • Steering
  • The pram is very robust
  • Very heavy

It's also a tank, but in my opinion it's too robust and big and heavy. I can't fit with it almost anywhere, the aisles in the shop are a problem, I'd rather not even try public transport, and the weight.. ugh. I'd go for something lighter. But the suspension is luxurious.

  • Puncture-proof wheels
  • Sturdy basket
  • Ventilated bassinet
  • Lower-level seat so baby can climb in by himself
  • Folds into the car 🔝
  • I found none at all

An absolutely great stroller. Great to handle, easy to use with one hand. The big wheels go anywhere, the front smaller ones can be locked.

The bassinet lasted my daughter about 8 months; we're still riding with the seat now at almost 2 years old and I don't want to get into any weak buggy at all.

It folds easily into the car, the seat reverses in and against direction of travel. And most importantly, a large and sturdy shopping basket that I used to carry my 4 year old niece in 🤣.

The best stroller

5
  • Spacious
  • Variable
  • Many accessories
  • Can handle any terrain

The best stroller, especially for bigger kids.

A stroller that met, finally, all my high expectations. The driving characteristics are unbeatable, there is no risk of a puncture - yet the wheels are soft and after two years of intensive driving they are still the same and unworn. Full recline, plenty of room even for bigger kids. The shopping basket can also carry a smaller elephant.

For me, the design is great too. Fantastic stroller for the mall as well as for the woods, meadow or bad terrain. I recommend with all my conscience.

  • Large wheels
  • Nice springing
  • The carry cot is pleasantly high and the seat low
  • Large basket
  • Comfortable handle
  • Heavy for loading in the car

A sturdy stroller that can really go through any terrain. Not much for frequent folding and loading into the car, it is very heavy. But it doesn't interfere with the handling.

Heavier but it's still easy to handle

4
  • Spacious
  • Design
  • Large shopping basket
  • Rockers
  • Easy to operate
  • Great for rough terrain, woods, snow
  • The seat has no perpendicular, upright seating position

A great stroller. Some may mind the size (we don't, we have a bigger trunk in the car). And it is heavier. But it's still easy to handle.

  • Easy to drive, one "finger" is enough
  • Large, roomy
  • A perfectly extendable canopy that makes a "paparazzi" coverage
  • No blowing into the pram thanks to the canopy
  • I found no cons

A perfect pram, I have nothing I would change, no downside at all. I would again buy this Britax and I recommend it 10 out of 10.

Goes over any terrain

4
  • large
  • spacious
  • large basket
  • large carry cot
  • excellent hood
  • horrible apron (after you put it on) looks as a bag, it looks like a Polish accessory to me 🤣
  • expensive accessories (bag, plastic rain cover...)
  • full, upright sitting position of the seat (I have to flip it up to the hood) - even so, the little one slides down (and he's big enough 🤔)
  • I missed a seat liner

Goes over any terrain - that's a plus for me 👍 I also have to praise the carry cot.
