I should have bought it earlier

4
  • Good folding even with seat
  • One-hand handling
  • A bit harder, less suspension

So far so good. Easy to handle. It is nice to fold even with the seat part. I should have bought it earlier.

I would never buy it again

2
  • Large seat
  • Large basket
  • Rattly front wheels
  • Liable frame
  • Thin canopy
  • Poor ride characteristics - hard ride
  • Black sort of faded :(

I was very disappointed with the stroller. I expected something more from this brand. The frame was unstable, the canopy was thin, the front wheels were banging a lot. I had the lavastone black and it looked like it was faded. Very hard stroller... I would never buy it again!

More for summer

3
  • easy to fold
  • easy to drive
  • faces both directions
  • the front wheels rattle
  • quite narrow
  • hard chassis

Pretty nice stroller, but it has a terribly hard and rattling frame. We were overall satisfied. But the stroller is more for summer.

One of the best strollers

4

One of the best strollers. It is a giant basket, can handle the terrain quite well and still fits from a small car trunk and is light enough to carry up the stairs. The swing-out belly bar and the reclining leg section are also very nice.

Lacked suspension

4
  • Bucket seat unit
  • Spacious
  • Rattly wheels
  • No suspension

Lacked suspension - would have been great.

It met my expectations in everything

5
  • Spacious
  • Easily foldable
  • Practical
  • Super modern
  • There are no downsides 😍

For me the best baby stroller in the world! I wouldn't trade it for anything! It met my expectations in everything.

  • Composable
  • Agile, but can handle moderate terrain
  • Huge storage space
  • Leg rest is adjustabôe
  • Adjustable handlebar length
  • Detachable belly bar (no need to detach the whole handle)
  • Extended hood
  • Looks great
  • Bucket seat style does not allow to create a flat sleeping surface - it is possible to lie down, but then the legs are higher than the head

The best stroller in terms of compromise between compactness and terrain capability with many practical features.

Quite nice

3
  • large bassinet
  • adjustable leg rest
  • belly bar
  • detachable and extended canopy
  • completely unusable in terrain

Quite nice. I have the Ferrari edition.

The seat is large

4

It's harder than the Jané Slalom, but it's small, foldable, easy to ride - and what I like the most: the seat can be reversed in froward facing and vice versa ☺️ The seat is large, bigger than the Slalom, and I put my son to sleep in the stroller until he was two years old.

For me, average

3
  • very spacious
  • reverses for and against the direction of travel
  • the wheels go through everything
  • no suspension
  • a bit difficult to fold into my car

For me, an average stroller. Unsprung wheels, so a bit harder, but thanks to the larger wheels it went through everything without a problem. The bucket seat was fine for us. The stroller is wonderfully roomy, suitable for bigger kids. I was a little disappointed with the quality of the covers, after a while you could see rubbing, pushing through etc... Reverses in and against the direction of travel.

A bit bulky in the car for me, didn't suit me to fold the seat first and then fold the chassis - I travel a lot and need to fold the stroller ideally in one click. But those who don't take the stroller out of the car 4 times a day don't have to deal with this :-)

Super easy to use and super light

5

Love it! Super easy to use and super light!

If it wasn't so hard to steer and the wheels weren't rattling, I'd be happy with it.

A perfect pushchair. Absolutely happy with it. I have the whole 3in1 set. It lasted for both of my kids and it's still in great condition.

I am sorry it's not sold anymore :-(

  • Spacious
  • Easy to adjust the seat back and leg rest
  • Huuuge storage basket
  • Incredible easy push
  • Incredible easy manipulation
  • Compact folding
  • There's only a mesh extension part on the canopy

Almost perfect stroller. I am sorry it's not sold anymore :-(

I thought it will be smaller after folding. But even so, I am still happy with it.

Id buy a Cybex again for sure

  • Lightweight
  • Easy to push and turn
  • Compact, which is great when traveling 🙂
  • Rattling wheels

Its only downside - the rattling wheels, but we got used to it 🙂 But I wouldn't choose differently; I'd buy a Cybex again for sure.

  • One of the lightweight pushchairs
  • Those large wheels are able to pass through cobblestones or grassy terrain
  • Extra.large canopy
  • Mesh panel in the canopy (a great help in the summer)
  • Large seat
  • Reversible seat
  • L-shaped bucket seat
  • Large basket
  • A very slight rattling of the front wheels on uneven surfaces (I don't really mind this)

I seriously don't understand why didn't I buy it sooner! I moved on to it after a bulky and heavy travel system, and I find the Balios M perfect for me. I am not even bothered by the slight rattling of the front wheels when passing through uneven terrain - it's nothing serious. I also love the mesh panel in the canopy, even though I thought I would mind that. And that L-shaped seat unit! I was a bit afraid at first, but immediately after getting in it, my DD sat there like a queen! I drank my coffee, watched a performance, and she was still happy sitting there, not a budge. This I never knew before - I had to move with the pushchair all the time before. She obviously loves being in this one. And I am ABSOLUTELY happy.

It fit our lifestyle well

  • Design
  • Easy, practical fold
  • Large shopping basket
  • Reversible
  • Cupholder
  • Extendable hood
  • Rattling of the front wheels

We had the 2018 version of the Balios M. A beautiful, compact, functional stroller. It fit our lifestyle well (we just had the stroller version, no carrycot or car seat).

  • A lot of space for the child
  • Large canopy
  • Large basket
  • Easy manipulation
  • The front wheels rattle slightly when going through more demanding surfaces

Its fantastic! I am just sorry I didnt buy it from the beginning ❤️
