I am pretty happy with the Litetrax 4 DLX. It's not perfect, but considering its price, I think it has been a good choice.

EVA wheels are quite soft, so I like their feeling, also when I'm on uneven roads. I don't know if they're good on all terrains; I've tried them on grass (need more strength in pushing) and gravel (between hard and stuck).

Construction seems to be sturdy, and the weight is ok. When folded, it's a bit cumbersome, so it barely fits in my car boot.
Maneuverability is very good, thanks to the wheels' quality and to the effective and soft suspensions.
I like the fabrics, recline angles, and lever reclining system.

I don't like the unfolding system because it needs two hands.

The two major flaws of this stroller, to me, are the canopy and the basket.

The canopy: it isn't very long (in sleeping position, it barely covers the head of the baby), and above all, its main problem is that when you unzip it, you uncover a piece of fabric in peek-a-boo style that doesn't filter the sun. It's like having a window on a "slice" of the canopy.

The basket is hardly accessible, probably because of the low height of the stroller. You can only put small objects in there. Really hard to put a bag in.

Very nice city buggy

  • Practical
  • Good fabrics and coverage
  • Could be lighter

A very nice city buggy. We're happy with it. I just expected it will be a bit more lightweight, I guess.

Just a bit heavy to me

  • well padded
  • wide seat
  • large hood
  • nice basket
  • easy fold
  • adjustable handle height
  • a bit heavy
  • a bit noisy on terrain
  • leg rest feels short

As a mid size pushchair, GOOD. I like it overall. It's just a bit heavy to me.

Returned it

  • Looks great
  • Very nicely padded
  • Handle adjusts (finally!)
  • Canopy
  • Front wheels
  • Weight

We returned it. I couldn't lift it in the car (I am quite petite) and the front wheels did this wobbly sound if not on smooth surfaces.

The wheels are not much for terrain

We really like it, just the wheels are not much for terrain. They rattle on bumps. Also, the seat is fantastically padded but a bit short to my taste. But the large canopy and good sun coverage are awesome, and I love the large storage.
