Cybex Priam belongs to the highest Cybex Platinum series. It won the Baby & Pregnancy 2015 Gold Award and a Honourable Mention at Reddot 2015. It is a state-of-the-art high-end stroller with a variety of possible chassis, wheel and seat combinations. You have a choice of two color combinations: a chrome chassis with white wheels or a black chassis with black wheels. You can also choose the type of wheels: Light - 15 cm in diameter, suitable for less demanding city walks, Trekking - suitable for mixed use, and All Terrain. You can choose from two types of seats. The Lux Seat is a higher, fully padded, more luxurious, non-bucket version which can be reclined completely flat. It is a frame onto which you stretch the carrycot or the bucket seat textiles. The 2in1 Light Seat is a frame onto which you attach the carrycot or the bucket seat textiles.

A number of accessories are available for this stroller: besides the basic, there is the additional snack tray or the Kid board. You can also exchange the swivel front wheels for the bigger, all-terrain fixed wheels or even skis if you want to use the stroller in the mountains during winter. Expandable storage basket, which can be partially closed, makes this stroller even more interesting. The chassis underwent an upgrade in 2017 - the handlebar is now better built and sturdier, and the suspension is softer, with visible rear springs.

The Priam was also released in limited editions. For 2017: Cybex by Jeremy Scott with golden chassis and wings, Birds of Paradise Fashion Edition, Hide&Seek - Butterfly Fashion Collection and Koi Crystallized. For 2018, a space themed collaboration with Anna K, the new Jeremy Scott with cherubs and golden details, playfully wild Rebellious edition as well as licensed Scuderia Ferrari were added to the list.

parents say thx^^

A great stroller, but it has its faults

4
  • Nice design
  • Car seat can be placed in the lying position
  • Spacious carrycot
  • Seat can be reclined out to a full lie flat
  • Pretty heavy car seat
  • Frame does not snap locked together when fully folded

For me it's a great stroller, but it has its faults.

The best

5
  • Extended canopy
  • Positioning of the legs
  • One-hand folding
  • Full recline
  • Folded in one piece (with seat)
  • Large shopping basket
  • Seats both forward and rearward

The best stroller that has passed under my hands.

The best pram

5

The best pram we could choose.

Disappointed by the leather parts

2
  • The bumper became sticky and leaving marks on my baby’s skin and clothes
  • Even the cybex logo on the feet rest started to peel before 6 months of usage, and I take care really well of the stroller, as the push bar and the rest are as new.

Disappointed by the leather parts.

The best we've tried so far

5
  • Ease of steering
  • Easy folding and unfolding
  • Spacious bassinet
  • Sports seat up to 17kg also very roomy (2.5 year old fits fine)
  • Design 💕
  • Details 🥇
  • Long canopy

Cybex Priam by Jeremy Scott - the best stroller we've tried so far.

5

  • Suspension
  • Beautiful design
  • Sophisticated reclining car seat
  • Option to anchor the base with Isofix
  • Car seat suitable for premature babies
  • Car seat has excellent crash test ratings

My partner and I chose the Cybex Priam Seat Lux all terrain 3in1 stroller in grey with Matt Black construction. The stroller captivated me with its design a few years back when I didn't have a baby. Another bonus was its reviews and ratings, which confirmed that it was the right choice for us. My partner and I are tall. On the other hand, our mums (+/- 155cm) are short, so we make a lot of use of the ability to lower or raise the handle. For off-road, we got the axle and the same size non-rotating wheels, and for town and to the doctors, the front locking ones are great. The stroller is lightweight, folds with one hand, and is easy to handle in the compartment.

The biggest plus for us is the ability to attach the car seat to the structure, as we often travel by car, and I don't have to worry about the little one being squished and bent over in the seat for long periods of time, as Cybex has the great option of laying the car seat almost flat. We also took advantage of the premature baby adjustment since our little one was born at 33rd week. It's not a rattly stroller and is definitely worth the price.

An excellent stroller

4
  • Very easy to use
  • Easily foldable
  • Excellent wheels - carefree - no punctures, lightweight
  • Bearings in wheels are quality, no need to push with force, goes by itself
  • Fully reclinable seat
  • Easy to reverse seat
  • Canopy is large and strong enough
  • Colours did not fad
  • The only downside, no leg cover included

An excellent stroller. For any situation...

  • Looks
  • Tall handle
  • Adjustable leg rest
  • Weight
  • Stability
  • Compactness

Very nice to look at, the covers can be changed and therefore washed. Brakes are strong, folding easy.

Handles easily, but does not sit securely on the road (at higher speeds it leans on two wheels into a corner! - BGB Fox never did this). It's quite heavy, taking up half a suitcase. The handle in the stroller could be thicker, the additional food tray is horrible (you can't even close it if you put e.g. fruit in it)

One of the more expensive rattles

1.0
  • compactness
  • low weight
  • service
  • materials quality (swiveling wheels, bearings)
  • adjustment of the handlebar...

One of the more expensive rattles with terrible service 🤦‍♀️

  • easy handling
  • very good wheels
  • fits even in small elevators in apartment buildings
  • very clever folding, ideal for a woman
  • easy to resell because it is in demand
  • the bottom of the storage basket brushes against the kerb when the kerb is higher
  • expensive (but you can sell a 3 in 1 set for 1000 euros even used)

An excellent stroller! I recommend it! I have the Koi Platinum version and it's better, higher quality material than the solid color Priam strollers. When I compared it to the rattly strollers under 500 euros, I found that it makes a huge difference. It's worth investing in a stroller.
