Kinderkraft Askoy
.eli
The Kinderkraft Askoy is a 2022 renamed version of the Kinderkraft Cruiser – a simple, lightweight pushchair with a modern design, pastels color, and urban functionality. The differences between the Kinderkraft Cruiser and the Askoy are in the updated details: an improved folding mechanicm on the handle, a new design of the wheels with an open spring suspension and a white circle on the wheel rims, a new style of stiching on the footrest and the backrest, and a logo update. The minimalistic colors and shapes will grab your attention just as much as its affordable price, the one-hand fold, the extra-large shopping basket, the fully reclining seat, and the rubber wheels with a rear suspension system. This versatile stroller is a simple asset of an undemanding urban mommy suitable even for younger children. Instead of a conventional belly bar, the Askoy features a practical child tray and a cup holder, a rain cover, and an apron (all included in the base package).

Parent reviews of the Kinderkraft Askoy
Your questions about the Kinderkraft Askoy
Which is the best Kindercraft stroller for a 3-year-old, school run, and car boot?
Heya,
For a 3 years old, you need a lot of space in the seat. I would go for a Kinderkraft Grande line for that.
Is the bumper bar removable? I am interested in making it as easy as possible when the child is put in the pram?
(Fromoriginal Romanian: Bara de protecție este detasabila? Ma intereseaza sa fie cat mai usor atunci cand copilul este pus in carucior?)
Hey, Anna,
Yes, the belly bar can be removed. It, however, cannot be gate-open, only removed as a whole. I don't think a child can do it, it will have to be you removing and putting it back every time.
Please can you tell me if this is suitable for a two year old and do the wheels make a plastic sound when being pushed
Hey, Dee,
This stroller is not the sturdiest, and overall is best for flatter, smoother surfaces. The wheels don't make a plastic sound, they are covered with a layer (a thicker-ish layer) of foam so the surface itself is not that hard, but they are on the rattly side and also can get pebbles stuck inside. You can fit a 2 years old inside, yes, but not with crazy much space to spare.
