Libelle
across 5 reviews
3.0/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Exceptionally compact fold that collapses into two stages, fitting in an aircraft overhead bin
  • Low weight paired with a high child weight capacity, making it usable well into toddler years
  • Simple, fast fold and unfold mechanism that most reviewers found intuitive after brief practice
Reviewers push back
  • Recline is shallow — not suitable for newborns lying flat and only marginally useful for naps
  • Wheels and ride quality are suited only to smooth surfaces; not a daily-use or all-terrain stroller
  • Canopy is small, has no peek-a-boo window, and does not extend far
A genuinely compact, lightweight travel stroller with an impressively small fold, limited recline, and narrow suitability — best as a secondary stroller for families on the move.
— best for: Families who travel frequently and need a stroller that fits in an aircraft overhead bin, handles urban transit, and pairs with a full-size pram at home.

This was the best purchase I made regarding my child. I researched a lot, and this was the one that caught my eyes so I went for it and I’m so glad I did. It’s very lightweight, my son is a big boy for a 2 year old and he fits so comfortably with plenty of room left; I’ve been everywhere with it and not a problem with any floor textures. So if I can recommend one, I would definitely recommend this maxi-cosi.ie

We got this stroller for travel but we’ve ended up using it most day because it’s so easy and small to just throw into the back of the car! Folds really easily and it’s so compact. Baby’s considerably reclined but she doesn’t care. Will be using on our European trip in a month! Joanna I. · cybex-online.com
