Stokke Xplory

Description:

The Stokke Xplory is a uniquely styled pushchair with offers a high seating position for the child to give it a good connection with the parent. The Xplory is a travel system with a large seat, roomy carrycot and car seat options. The Xplory is easy to push about town. The seat can parent or forward face, and can be adjusted to suit children from birth to 4.

Pros:

High seating position gives a great view for both parent and child Good choice of recline and height positions for the child. Huge parent and forward facing seat - the seat is suitable from birth with the included Stokke newborn insert which is depth adjustable for different ages of children. One handed recline and footrest adjustment. Can be folded one handed. Two wheel function to pull eg across the beach or to go up stairs. No cross bar to kick at the rear for a long stride. 3 year warranty.

Cons:

Price - very expensive! The accessories are very expensive too! No suspension. The buttons controlling the seat height and recline are tucked away underneath the seat unit and mean bending down to find. Raising the seat is a little tricky. The fold is bulky and long. The seat unit is bulky to store. Will only fold with the seat on forward facing. No basket - there is a small shopping bag included. The seat fabric at the rear gets dirty and damaged easily if the seat is laid on the floor eg putting in and out of the car.
