I’ve been looking for a lightweight stroller for a while as my kids are now 3 and almost 2, so we don’t always need a buggy when we’re out, but it’s useful to have one for stragglers and naps-on-the-go. My trusty Silver Cross Pioneer was starting to become a bit cumbersome, and to be honest, a bit of a space-stealer.
It’s served us well for more than three years with two babies, but we decided we needed something more compact. Well let me introduce you to the Aries Prime Auto-Fold Stroller by Ickle Bubba , which was exactly what we were after. It’s a seriously light stroller , weighing in at just 6.
1kg, and it auto-folds seamlessly at the push of a button. Its folded size is perfectly compact, and it’s easy to tuck it away in the house or sling it in the car boot without taking all your storage space. I was nervous that a smaller stroller wouldn’t be as robust or as comfortable for my little ones - but this buggy has a padded extra-large seat which is perfect for toddlers , with a multi-position seat recline and adjustable leg rest, so it’s comfy whether your little ones are sitting up and looking around or lying back for a snooze.
It also features front and rear suspension for light, agile steering and PU wheels for extra shock absorption, so it’s a smooth ride - something I wasn’t expecting from such a li.
