Silver Cross Sleepover Sport

DISCONTINUED in 2013
see 1 parent review

The Silver Cross Sleepover Sport (also known as the Sleepover Classic, or the Sleepover Deluxe emphasizing the high comfort and quality) is a retro-style stroller on the rocking chrome chassis with large, fixed, foam wheels. The Sleepover Sport is a 2in1 stroller system. By removing the liner, attaching a bumper bar, and tilting the leg rest, the newborn-friendly carrycot can be transformed into a reversible seat unit with full recline. The carrycot part is well ventilated and suitable, even for overnight sleeping. The wooden stand is available separately or as a part of specific pre-made sets, allowing the carrycot to be used as a cradle. The stroller comes with an apron, and a changing bag included. Using the optional Ventura car seat, the Sleepover Sport can be transformed into a travel system. The urban Linear chassis with smaller, dual, swivel wheels, is available as well. Using this chassis in combination with the same carrycot and the seat, you can create the Sleepover Linear.

parents say thx^^
  • Rocking
  • Large carrycot
  • Seat unit is short
  • Takes up a lot of space - even after folding
  • Hollow foam wheels

I had this pram for a very short time, as we never became 'friends'.

A 2in1 pramette seat is a unique piece but not a winner, in my opinion. The carrycot is still ok, but the seat unit is very short and too deep. The direction of the travel can be easily changed even with the baby inside. The canopy is extendable - at some angles, however, the child is not protected from the sun.

The chassis is pleasantly rocking, with an adjustable handlebar. The shopping basket is big. However, it has large holes. Thus, you have to be careful, so the small things will not be shaken out or get splashed on. The break is easy to operate - a foot break made so you won't ruin your shoes.

Perhaps the worst thing is the wheels. I still do not understand why they are hollow - most probably, this is the original feature of this model. The ride feels the same as with standard foam wheels. The only difference is the fact that when a bigger stone gets stuck in it, it goes directly inside the wheel and cannot be taken out, so it rattles inside... I would prefer air-filled tires.
