Didofy Aster 2
.eli
The Didofy Aster 2 (or the New Aster) is a 2022 update of the ultra-compact auto-folding Didofy Aster stroller destined for traveling,. The compact, cabin-firendly dimensions after folding work well during trips with the MagicFold folding system that makes the buggy fold by itself after a press of a button. The low weight of 6.2 kg complemented with the individual wheel suspension system and the lie-flat seat make this buggy usable even for smaller babies - however, the small wheels of the stroller and its overall small size make it suitable for urban surfaces and undemanding walks only, so be sure to use it during your holidays or as an occasional stroller, not an everyday pushchair.

Parent reviews of the Didofy Aster 2
Your questions about the Didofy Aster 2
Hello. Are you able to tell me the angle of the most upright seat position? Thanks.
Hey, Laura,
I don't have an absolute exact angle for you, unfortunately. The best I can give you is my educated guess that it is about 105 degrees. Definitely not a super upright seat.
Hi,
I wondered if the Didofy Aster 2 would be compatible with a buggy board? Specifically the Lascal mini but any if not!
Thanks
Amelia
Hey, Amelia,
The Aster should be ok with a Lascal - in theory. The buggy board works very universally and I am pretty sure you will be able to attach it.
That being said, I personally wouldn't go for it. You will have literally no space for your steps, and the small buggy will very soon get loose because of the strain. It may get considerably wobbly, rattly, and develop misalignments.
Hi, do you know if you can get spare wheels for the Didofy Aster2?
Thank you
Hi Rosie,
I suggest reading this guide of mine to know what steps you can take to get spare / replacement parts for a stroller, however the wheels cannot be just bought. Just go through the article and try what you can, but also be ready that with such an occasional use stroller, you may also not get them.
