The Cybex Gazelle is a highly customizable stroller that can be adapted to your family. It has over 20 combinations that allow you to use it in single or twin mode right from birth. The car seat adaptors are integrated into the frame, meaning you don't need to purchase a separate infant seat. This makes it easy to change it from a mono stroller to a twin one.

The stroller comes in four gorgeous fabrics that complement the sloping contours of the frame and the taupe-tinted aluminum chassis. The sleek design has an elegant, sleek look that's ideal for any parent.

With the Maclaren Techno, parents can take advantage of a pram that offers supreme comfort and compact design. It features a fully-reclining seat with an extended leg rest and a head hugger to ensure babies are at ease on long journeys. A fully-coverage extendable sun visor and full-coverage hood will shield your child from the elements. The parent tray, with its cup holders and storage compartments, is a convenient space to store your essentials.

Its streamlined profile also makes it easier to push across uneven surfaces. The rear-facing seat and reversible footrest help you reach the door of the shops easily.
Another wonderful aspect of the Maclaren is its quick and easy fold. It is a little slower than the average but it only requires one hand to open or close. When closed, it's a tiny pram that can easily fit into tight spaces.
This model is not recommended for babies. However, it is suitable for children aged 3 months or older. You can buy one of Maclaren's lightweight umbrella strollers if you require a pram for your child at this stage. It's an excellent option for older toddlers and babies because it's so comfortable that they'll want to lay down in their seat at home or while on the move!

3. M&P Pramette
The M&P Pramette is a great pushchair/pram combo for families with two children or for parents who are new to the world of parenting. 2 in 1 carrycot and pushchair comes with a carrycot approved for sleep at night and easily converts into a double pushchair when the time is right. It's not the cheapest option but its gorgeous design and features make it worth the investment.
Claire found the pram easy to maneuver on various terrain and in confined spaces such as narrow aisles in shops. The swivel wheel assisted her guide the pram with precision. Its compact size makes it easy for you to store it at home. The large air-filled tires offer an enjoyable ride and can also be used on off-road surfaces. The hood can be pulled down right to the baby's feet to provide sun protection or a cosy sleep and is very simple to use.
Another great feature is the reversible seat that lets you alter the direction that your child's face is. The reclining seat also provides excellent back and head support, so that your child can have a comfy and peaceful nap in the seat or carrycot. Claire liked the large shopping basket that is accessible from the seat or carrycot at any angle. It can accommodate the entire nappies pack as well as a changing bag.
The Xplory X is a top-quality pram from Stokke and is suitable for babies from birth. It comes with the chassis, a pushchair seat and a lie-flat carrycot but other accessories like the rain cover will need to be purchased separately.

4. Thule Shine
Thule is a name known for its cool and practical products, and the Shine stroller is no different. It is one of the lightest strollers on the market and feels solid and solid to hold despite its simple design. It's also extremely versatile, allowing it to be used as a bassinet or Newborn Inlay from birth, as well as a Maxi Cosi car adapter.
In contrast to other lightweight strollers that are lighter, the Shine will not let you down in terms of cargo storage either. The 22-pound capacity of the Shine allows you to take everything you need on a day trip without having to worry about putting anything in the wrong place.
The wheels are also very easy to attach to the frame. They snap on straight from the box. The bassinet is also easy to put together and has handles that are similar to those of a Moses basket. The pram can be folded down into a compact and neat size, so it fits in even the smallest cars.
Thule's air purifier canopy is a standout as well, with an inbuilt fan that purifies the air you breathe to eliminate bacteria, viruses, pollen, and other nasty nasties. Thule claims that it can clean 150 liters of air per minute and can be connected to an app that displays the air quality in the area.
The only downside is the cost. Although it's cheaper than some other 2-in-1 prams, the complete kit still costs more than PS1,000. It's a bit difficult to swallow when there are other options like the Thule Spring which is lighter and more compact and costs half as much.
Thule's strollers are known for their durability, and I've seen them go through the testing rig at the Thule Hillerstop HQ in Sweden. They drop prams from high places and then slam them down slopes, then ride them across a bumpy buggy track in the snow to test their performance and endurance. 2 in 1 stroller come out looking great!
