Mutsy Spider
The Mutsy Spider is a unique, lightweight and compact stroller offering an option to attach a car seat as well. The name of this stroller is inspired by the specifically shaped, three-wheeled chassis with the bold axle reminiscent of spider legs. An advantage of the chassis is the easy maneuverability and the height-adjustable handlebar.
The spacious, front-facing seat is softly padded and ergonomically shaped. It can be reclined only partially; therefore, the Spider is only suitable for older children that can sit independently. However, as a travel system with a car seat, you can use it as a secondary stroller right from birth. The Spider comes only with a raincoat included. Other accessories are available separately and include a practical carry bag, which you will appreciate if your Spider goes with you on the board of the plane as hand luggage.

Your questions about the Mutsy Spider
Hello Eli!
Why has the Mutsy spider been discontinued? It was such a great product!
Greetings,
Danie van der Walt
Heya, Danie!
This model was, as pretty much most stroller models are, discontinued simply because of progress, updates, moving on to newer models. Probably the demand was not as high as the manufacturer wanted or needed, so it slowly stopped being produced and replaced by more successful models. This happens A LOT, and not only with strollers.
So, no worries, there was no recall or any danger there, it was simply pushed aside by newer strollers out there.
