Cybex - e-Priam Platinum

We have a Cybex e-tron and the power assist makes a huge difference if you are frequently walking up hills.

I went with the Cybex E-Priam. Wife goes on walks with the kid when I’m working. Has an electric motor that helps uphill and slows downhill. Also the stroller rocks itself when you’re at a restaurant or wherever through an app. It’s a bit pricey but worth it, cost us about $2000.

Do you have a shop near you that stocks all three? I really thought the e-Priam ticked all our boxes on paper (we also live on a hill and could use the assistance) but because of that motor it is easily the heaviest pushchair I have tried out. I realised there was no way I could lift it by myself to put in a car boot and then I was worried if I forgot to charge it or the battery ran out halfway home, it could be even harder to push uphill than a regular stroller. But it seemed really good apart from that.

I HIGHLY recommend the Cybex travel system. The Balios is a bit more affordable which I love. And they don't require the adapters like most of them do, even Nuna. They are also compatible with a bassinet which is not an expensive add on.

Are you considering more than one kid? We initially had a hand me down peg perego system that we loved but it got damaged on a flight and we got reimbursed its original price. We chose the cybex over the uppababy as our replacement because both seats can hold up to 50lbs

My suggestion if you can is go to a store and try them out. My partner and I were pretty set on a cybex travel system but on trying them out we ended up with a per perego as the fold mechanism and swapping components was more intuitive for us. We also got the isofix base for each car we have and once baby has outgrown the car seat we can just but the next seat without the base that is suitable for bigger children.

We have the Cybex Priam from 2021, it looked amazing but it's just an overpriced design stroller. Unless we received it as a gift I would never buy it again, it's **terrible**. **Pros**: Easy to fold and pack away, switch between seats. Use the Cloud-Z carseat and click it right on the stroller if the baby is asleep. It looks nice. **Cons**: Everything else, rain cover does not fit in more than one position. The canopy does not cover sunlight. The faux leather on handles rip easily, the plastic parts (rose gold) crack and causes your fingers to bleed. The tires are making constant noises, it's embarrassing. The front wheel lock gets worn down and does not work. It's ONLY design, no good functions or robust materials/production.

These are relatively cheap. We went for Cybex 3in1 eventually, and it was super costly. Although 2in1 would be enough. I prefer to buy car seat separately

Cybex does two carrycots as well. You need to buy the second cot and an adapter. But it’s basically like the uppababy vista with the added benefit that the lower seat has the same weight limit as the upper one

I’ve tried the bugaboo, and then 3 of the stackable ones. The bugaboo is nice because you can see both and it’s not much wider than the others but it manages to do that by keeping seats and carrycots incredibly narrow. The others go like this in terms of advantages - gazelle: both seats are the same weight limit - uppababy: one handed detachment of carrycots and a huge basket - icandy: you can see both babies in their carrycots at once (it has way more flexibility in adapters eg see the picture for one option that’s not available on the others afaik) [icandy stackable visible option](https://www.babybabyonline.co.uk/pushchairs-prams-c3/shop-by-type-c26/twins-tandems-c386/icandy-peach-twin-pushchair-dark-grey-twill-phantom-p7060)

Yeah, I put my cybex priam with bassinet attachment straight into my van without folding but that doesn't make it a travel stroller 😂

I have a cybex priam with the travel system and baby and I both love it. My toddler likes the toddler seat as well but he's rarely in it because he prefers the balance bike. It's not a proper off road stroller but it does hills, cobbles, park lanes etc no problem and it's light enough to put in the car easily.
