Babystyle Oyster 1

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Babystyle Oyster is smart looking compact travel system with car seat and carrycot options. The Oyster has a reversible seat unit and is narrow. It is packed with good quality features like a button recline, easy pop off seat, adjustable footrest, autolock and large shopping basket. The Oyster has an amazing range of colour packs and a choice of chassis colour.

Pros:

Good value for money. Forward and outward facing. Large basket. Easily customisable with a large range of colour packs. Carrycot, seat unit and car seat options. Narrow - just 56cms wide. Integral UV sunshade and net. Folds with the seat on in both directions. Packed with features that are usually found on a higher priced pushchair. Extendable hood - both with a visor and zip out section. Adjustable handle. Seat pops off very easily. The hood slides up the frame to allow room for an older child.

Cons:

The child feels exposed in the seat. 2 handed fold. Oyster 1 is not suitable from birth without the carrycot. The harness is a bit short once the liner and footmuff are in place. The rear facing fold is long and an odd shape! The seat has a small ledge in the back which means some children don't look like they sit correctly in the seat. The hood doesn't push back flat against the seat. 2 step fold. Will fold with the bumper bar folded down - however the fold is not quite as compact.
