Egg Quail

Best Buggy rating:

Description:

The Babystyle Quail is a smaller version of the standard Egg stroller, making it perfect for the urban environment. The Quail has maintained the stylish look and feel of the Egg using luxury fabrics, striking colours and the curved seat back, which provides the distinctive ‘quail-like’ shape. The Egg Quail is both parent and forward-facing, and folds down like a clamshell with the seat unit on in both positions. Once folded, it can also stand on its own. It can also be a full travel system, once you’ve attached the additional adaptors. The seat reclines fully, so claims to be suitable from birth. The Babystyle Quail has an impressive adjustable harness and hood mechanism, which are moved up and down using a slider on the back of the chair. This makes it much easier to vary the position and the mechanism is covered with a removable, magnetic cover, which comes in a range of colours.

Pros:

Suitable from birth. Compact travel system. Easily adjusted harness and hood. Gorgeous choice of colours. Fitted raincover included. Forward and parent facing seat options. Compact fold which stands on its own. Optional extras include a footmuff, changing bag, bottle holder and toddler ride-on platform.

Cons:

Fiddly seat removal - but the pushchair folds with the seat left in situ facing either way. 2 fold clips to undo. Seat can flop backwards if not opened correctly
