Ickle Bubba Aston Rose is a stroller system released in 2020. It is a model practically identical with the Shom Roberto Verino - Elegance, of course, released under a different brand (therefore with different logos and tags), available also in different colorways. This elegant, luxury-looking model was inspired by the functionality of the Cybex Priam with a similar flap-open basket, two-wheel-drive mode possibility for rough terrains (like sand) or stair-climbing, and sliding shoulder harness. Added functions would include a reversible handlebar to push the rear wheels first if tackling a rough-terrain patch or a manual central brake located on the side of the handle.

In the 2in1 set, you'll find a frame and two fabric packs for the seat unit and the carrycot. You'll zip the one you're going to use on the same seat frame. The canopy is used with both the seat unit and the bassinet part - you'll only get one. You'll get a rain cover and a mosquito net, also universally usable for both of the parts. There's also a cup holder included with the package. The bucket-type, L-shaped seat unit can be reclined fully (by tilting it as a whole) in both directions. The carrycot offers a lot of space and a lot of padding for your newborn - and it is certified for occasional overnight sleeping. A car seat to create a travel system can be attached, too - their own Mercury car seat or a Maxi-Cosi/Cybex/Joie type car seat will fit on corresponding adapters. There are different (5, 8, 10-piece bundles) to choose from when purchasing your Aston Rose stroller set.

parents say thx^^

Wouldn’t buy again

1.0
  • Looks nice - that’s about it
  • The whole buggy in its self is very bulky, hard to put down and hard to fit in regular car boot as so bulky
  • Hard to take basket off and the hood comes off easily and constantly having to search again
  • Over all I feel I’ve wasted nearly £600

Wouldn’t buy again.

  • Looks more expensive than it is
  • Feels sturdy
  • Very bulky when folded
  • Heavy when folded

This stroller looks the part and is a good option for a full travel system on a budget, however, I wish I’d gone for something more lightweight.

The chassis takes up the full boot of my small car, which makes it difficult if going shopping, and I find it really heavy and awkward to lift into the boot space. After having a C- Section this was really difficult on my first few trips out with my baby.

A beautiful-looking model. I found it a bit rattling over harsher terrain, but nothing terrible. I also am not fond of the folding system - the chassis seems large/long, and also, it's not smooth at all. The low-placed handbrake and handlebar adjustment clips are a bit unnerving. On the other hand, the carrycot is spacious, the golden accents look luxurious, and the price with the accessories is actually nice.

  • canopy
  • spacious bassinet
  • beautiful details and accessories
  • closable/extendable basket
  • rubber wheels with no gravel inside
  • there is some suspension
  • accessories in the 10in1 set
  • good value for money
  • not the smallest when folded, it takes up all my boot - but it's not a very big car
  • it can be a bit noisy on small stones and bumps
  • the plastics don't seem to be that high of a quality

Very nice value for money, when you're looking for a luxury pram/pushchair but don't want to invest thousands.

It looks better than it actually is

Your questions about the Ickle Bubba Aston Rose

1)

Does the Aston Rose carrycot fit on Ickle Bubba V4?

Hey, Amy,

No, actuially, it won't fit, why would it? These strollers are of different brands and of different designs. The attachment systems are also designed differently, so the parts are nor interchangeable, no.
