Peg-Pérego Pliko Mini 500

 see 3 parent reviews

The Peg-Pérego Pliko Mini 500 is a luxurious, designer version of the ultra-lightweight umbrella stroller Pliko Mini, inspired by the iconic Fiat 500. Compared to the basic model, the Pliko Mini 500 comes in a different color scheme. The stylish leg rest covered in leatherette is also easier to clean.

When folded, the telescopic handlebar enables the stroller to stand independently, so it does not take up much storage space. Thanks to the simple functionality, low weight, and small dimensions, the stroller is suitable for the role of a secondary stroller for running errands, quick trips to the store and traveling. The seat is suitable for babies too as it can be reclined flat.

parents say thx^^

I have three children and with all of them, I bought it again and again

4
  • large seat
  • lightweight
  • beautiful covers
  • goes almost to lying down
  • upright seat in my opinion
  • rattly wheels (on cobblestones)

Excellent buggy - my favourite. I have three children and with all of them, I bought it again and again.

Really roomy even for a three year old. Super lightweight - I routinely lift it myself, loaded with groceries, and the baby onto public transport. The canopy is sufficient. The only thing that bothers me a bit is that the wheels rattle on the cobblestones, but that's about all umbrella buggies.

It handled a lot

4
  • Low weight
  • Reclining seat
  • Also suitable for a three year old
  • For me not upright enough
  • Difficult to take down the covers (I couldn't get the canopy off at all)

The biggest plus is its lightness. It handled a lot, even a buggy board with his sibling.

Perfect for the car - fits in even the smallest ones

4
  • Light
  • Well positionable - lies flat
  • New extended canopy
  • Fits everywhere
  • Easy to fold
  • Perfect for the car - fits in even the smallest cars
  • Window in the canopy
  • Backrest can be fully reclined (flat)
  • The basket is just a net - it needs to be reinforced
  • The wheels rattle on uneven terrain (lock pavement, etc.)
  • Cannot be operated with one hand (no connected handle) - but otherwise easy to handle

Newer model (2018) with round, extended canopy and positioning up to lie flat.
