Things we love
The weight (or lack of!) of this pushchair is the first thing we noticed and loved. It is super-light and very easily lifted from place to place. It has a curvy and smooth silhouette and is definitely one for the fashionistas who don’t fancy the look of your average stroller. All of the functions are easy to use, including the recline, which is operated by a lever on the back of the seat. The recline options are great and our little tester was happy to fall asleep in the seat and stay napping for quite a while so it is obviously quite comfortable.
The fold is small and it is great to have space in the car boot and hallway for other things as well! The fact that the fold is operated with one hand from the handlebar is also convenient as you can easily have baby on your hip and fold the buggy at the same time – perfect when travelling.
Things to look out for
The wheels are small and the front swivel wheels are stopped dead in their tracks by any sudden change in terrain or over rougher ground. If you came across a cobbled street then you might be in a spot of bother! That said, generally the push is nice and smooth and the rear suspension works really well. The hood is great and the extendable panel gives excellent coverage but the zip unzips totally so it is a bit of a fiddle to pinch it all back together to close it up – it would definitely be easier if the zip stayed intact at one end.
Our verdict
The MBX6 is an easy-to-use and sleek-looking stroller. The two available colourways are fun and modern, and ideal for families who like to stay on-trend. The seat is comfortable for baby and on smooth surfaces the push is pleasant for parents too. The included raincover, apron and cupholder give you an all-round, ready-for-any-eventuality stroller at a really good price.
