Maxi-Cosi Stella
The Maxi-Cosi Stella is a renewed, slimmer version of the all-terrain Mura. The chassis is equipped with large rubber wheels and a rear suspension so that it can handle all sorts of terrain, even an off-road drive. It can be folded with the seat unit attached, but for a more compact and easier fold, the seat should be taken off the chassis.
An ergonomically shaped seat with an original T-bar is extra padded. The seat covers are easily removable and washable. The reversible seat unit can be reclined flat, including the adjustable leg rest. You just need to pull a lever at the back of the seat and the unit can be taken off. The Stella can also be turned into a full-featured stroller system suitable from birth with the optional spacious, foldable Oria carrycot or the older Dreami. Alternatively, using a different set of adapters, a car seat can be added to the chassis too. The Stella was also released in an exclusive designer edition Stella by Edward van Vliet (van Vliet for short). The van Vliet version comes with accessories included. This stroller was also launched under the sub-brand Bébé Confort as the Bébé Confort Stella.

Best Deals for Maxi-Cosi Stella
Parent reviews of the Maxi-Cosi Stella
- The hood extends up to the child's legs
- Reversible seat unit
- Height-adjustable handlebar
- Perfect manipulation
- Puncture-free, indestructible wheels
- It started to squeak a little over time
This stroller is truly great, Easy to fold and unfold, an excellent hood that unzips to extend up to the child's legs... An adjustable leg rest, simple seat reversing system... You will get adapters for the carrycot as well as for the car seat included with it. The wheels don't get damaged overtime at all. The only disadvantage for me was the slight squeaking that started to happen over time - but it was nothing, really. The manipulation is truly perfect - bumps, holes, terrain, grass were no problem. Even my husband said it's excellent.
Lightweight, compact, with a simple folding/unfolding system. Takes up only minimal space in the car.
