Mamas&Papas Mylo

DISCONTINUED in 2013
see 2 parent reviews

The Mamas&Papas Mylo is a high-end stroller in a unique design. It was designed by the daughter of the Mamas&Papas founder and released in 2011. It attracts attention with its unconventional design and an ergonomically shaped seat. The stroller is available in a set, or you can personalize it by mix and matching different colors. The wheels with soft suspension can handle all kinds of terrain. For a full-size stroller, the Mylo is relatively compact after folding.

The wide carrycot offers a possibility of inclining the mattress, atypically for the brand. You attach the apron using the practical silent magnets. The seat is fully reversible and can be reclined flat. The baby will be comfortable in it thanks to the extra padding. For the smallest ones, the stroller also comes with a head hugger. The unusually shaped hood can be extended. You can hang your baby´s favorite toys on the hooks on its bottom part. You can attach a carrycot and a car seat on the central oval bracket instead of the traditional two-point system on the sides. The Orbit Baby brand is also known for using this type of attachment.

The stroller features a small, closeable shopping basket. The capacity of the limited storage space can be increased by an optional storage bag which you can easily attach to the chassis. There are many other optional accessories available, including a carrycot stand for a baby to sleep on at home. You can also attach the seat unit or a car seat to the stand and use it as a high chair, suitable for feeding.

parents say thx^^
  • Lightweight
  • Easy folding
  • Not everyone on the street has one 😊
  • Works even with bigger kids
  • Wheels are harder for the terrain, ideal for the city

I can only recommend it. Great handling, low weight, and what's most practical about it - it can be folded quickly, with one hand. We bought it because we travel a lot, including by plane, and for traveling the seat unit is perfect in my opinion.

  • Modern design
  • For taller toddlers, too
  • Both forward and rearward facing
  • Extended canopies
  • Scratch-free frame
  • Extra spacious cot
  • Heavy, metal chassis
  • Hard to fold one-handedly
  • Bassinet fades quickly
  • Availability/price
  • More difficult handling
  • Hard, rattly even on pavement

Overall rating - 50/50. It's not perfect, but it's one of the better ones that you don't see every step of the way, but it doesn't hit you in the eyes with its colours either. It's impractical in a lot of ways, but it has a lot to offer.

I don't recommend it for frequent folding and unloading from the car - it's too heavy for that. Even the leather hand has become scratched from it.

The handle can be extended, suitable for taller parents.

Design-wise, a very nice pram. But it sits too hard even on the city sidewalk, at every crack or hole it rattles too much. Folding with one hand is not great, because the frame is metal and heavy. But there are no scratches on it at all, it still looks like new.

Otherwise it is very spacious. The positioning of the back and legs is good and easy, offering several positions. Very soft materials on the seat, but prone to fading. The bassinet is huge, spacious, adjustable and rocks on the floor, the best of the whole pram set.

The basket is very spacious, the zippers are harder to operate.
