Description:

The Maxi-Cosi Noa is an incredibly light, manoeuverable & compact pushchair. The Noa is surprisingly strong and sturdy for even a larger toddler. It's amazing one handed fold allows the pushchair to be opened & closed quickly even with an older baby tucked under one arm. Good suspension and a two position reclining seat offers a comfortable ride for a child.

Pros:

A lightweight pushchair that folds into a very compact shape which is easy to carry and freestands. The fold is one handed and is done quickly and easily. A telescopic handle allows the Noa to be pulled along behind you. A zip recline & suspension, offers comfort for a sleeping child. Raincover, basket and parasol clip are included.

Cons:

The basket is small - but is able to take more than you think.

Description:

A truly amazing pushchair!! This three wheeler offers supreme luxury for the child, whilst being great off road. The fold is awesome - a one handed process which folds the Babyzen Zen into a neat flat package. Even the wheels fold in! The Babyzen Zen also boasts a light with hazard option for winter days. Absolutely brilliant and a dream to push!

Pros:

The amazingly slim fold means the Babyzen Zen stores easily flat against a wall or fits into a small boot. Gorgeous thick, reversible, washable seat pad and harness strap covers. Easy zip recline. Comfy adjustable handlebar. Solar powered light at the front for winter days. This can be used as a hazard light to warn oncoming traffic - may seem gimmicky but in reality is very useful eg if you walk down country lanes after dark. Great to push, and fab off road. 20kg tested seat weight. Front wheel automatically locks when going over bumpy ground. Can be pulled along or slides sideways when folded. Lightweight.

Cons:

The fold does take a few steps to do, but its been well thought through and once you have the knack, the fold is simple and easy. Small basket. The harness is very easily adjustable but as a result as a journey progresses the harness slackens off which gets annoying. Tall people may kick the back wheels. The top of the harness is a little odd (but logical)!
