see 5 parent reviews

Cybex Iris M-Air belongs to the Cybex Gold series. The reversible bucket seat can be tilted to a fully reclined position. You can also adjust the leg rest. The seat with a higher weight capacity can handle even a bigger child. The smaller wheels with mild suspension are suitable for less demanding urban surfaces. The same stroller, but with larger, all-terrain wheels is the Cybex Balios M. With the optional carrycot and/or a car seat, you can create a full-featured system from birth.

An excellent choice

5

An excellent choice for us - I can recommend it.

A beautiful pushchair with an ergonomic type of seat unit (and it is reversible). And that huge basket... If only the canopy was floating, like a sun shield (you can "only" extend it with a mesh panel), it would be absolutely perfect.

Perfect for the city or shopping

  • Lightweight
  • Compact
  • Maneuverable
  • Very hard on uneven surfaces

I highly recommend this pushchair. Perfect for the city or shopping.

  • Weight
  • Compactness
  • The hood can be changed for another
  • Design
  • Price
  • Wobbly chassis
  • No apron (I used a good footmuff instead)
  • No noticeable suspension

A lightweight stroller with bucket-type seat unit, and a very elegant look. The ride is quite hard - there's no noticeable suspension - but I was ok with it even in rougher conditions. We don't live in the city, but I always managed to get from point A to point B with my DD - even without damage.

In my opinion, it is more suitable for the city, rather than some terrain use - but we also used it on a walk while on vacation in a mountain resort, my son had no problems sleeping. I hesitated between the Iris and the Balios M, but I decided for the lower weight, as I am folding and carrying the stroller on a daily basis. I would make the same choice if choosing again.

  • High-quality fabrics
  • Easy to push
  • Simple fold
  • Beautiful design
  • Bucket-type seat unit
  • Large, spacious shopping basket
  • Adjustable handlebar (parent comfort)
  • Wide seating surface
  • Large canopy with a zip-open ventilation mesh for the summer
  • Full rubber wheels, which is good for not getting a puncture, but, on the other hand, the driveability of the pushchair is affected - the ride is kind of hard, one doesn't really feel any suspension

A beautiful, high-quality, easy-to-push, and stylish pushchair. The seat is ergonomic, bucket-style. We have it in purple, and my daughter is happy in it, so we are (still) gladly using it.
