Maxi-Cosi Loola (Full)

DISCONTINUED in 2012
see 1 parent review

The Maxi-Cosi Loola (also called as the Loola Full) is a robust umbrella stroller with a reversible seat. The backrest can be reclined fully, and while being reclined, the leg rest is lifted up automatically. To create a full-featured stroller system from birth, you can change the seat for the carrycot or a car seat. Depending on the type of the car seat, you might not need adapters.

The chassis is made of aluminum and steel. It allows for a compact, telescopic fold, even with the seat attached in whichever direction. Once folded, the Loola is also free-standing, so you don’t need a lot of storage space. Rotating twin handlebars, which are quite unusual for umbrella strollers, have three different height positions. Front double wheels provide better stability. To handle uneven surfaces, you can lock the swivel front wheels while standing behind pushchair thanks to the Modulo Drive system located on the side of the stroller. So practical, you no longer need to be bending in front of the stroller. What is more, the stroller is equipped with a simple brake with two pedals, activated by pushing one pedal and deactivated by pushing the other one. This stroller was also launched under the sub-brand Bébé Confort as the Bébé Confort Loola.

parents say thx^^

An average umbrella stroller

3
  • Spacious sleeping surface
  • Rotating handles
  • One-hand recline
  • Sturdy chassis
  • Perfect folding system (my hubby loved it)
  • Wheel locks on the handlebars
  • Soft upholstery - my DD always slept comfortably in it
  • Heavy - it's not easy for a woman to put in the car boot
  • The rubberized canopy is not breathable at all - the good thing is, however, that it's rain- and wind-proofed
  • Not much suspension - I had a cheaper umbrella stroller as well, and they were easier to push on grass
  • No way of driving your kids without harnessing it in - the child slides down
  • I am 172 cm tall, and I hunched over to push it - the handles were too low for me

An average umbrella stroller. You can have the child facing you. The chassis is really compact when folded - the seat will fold in itself.
