DISCONTINUED
see 1 parent review

The iCandy Apple is a variable stroller that can be used as a stroller system as well as a tandem stroller for siblings. By adding the Apple to Pear Converter Kit - an adapter, two smaller-in-size seat units, and a front axle with the stable dual wheels, the Apple can be converted into the double Pear tandem. The Pear is also available to buy as a pre-made set.

Thanks to the chassis with suspension and air-filled rear wheels, the Apple can face some urban challenges. If you need the Apple handling more demanding terrain, you can swap the two foam-filled wheels for an air-filled one, transforming it into a three-wheeler. The hood(s) and matching seat insert(s), also called the Flavour Pack, are also sold-separately, making you complement the black chassis and the seat unit in your own taste. The bucket type seat(s) can be fully reclined by tilting, the leg rest(s) being adjustable too. The Apple only comes with a rain cover included. The carrycot, car seat adapters, and other related accessories are optional.

parents say thx^^
  • spacious shopping basket
  • large wheels
  • folding mechanism has a tendency to defects

This is, with all probability, the worst pushchair I had. Easy maneuverability, comfortable seat, spacious shopping basket, good accessories. However, only until the chassis gets broken. The warranty was already expired when I wanted to go for a walk, and I was trying to lift the front wheels above the door threshold (2cm). The stroller cracked and suddenly folded with the child in the seat! After a long decisionmaking - whether to repair or service the stroller at the seller, I decided to get rid of it, as the repair would be quite expensive, and we would be 6 weeks without a puschchair.
