e-Priam Platinum

We have a Cybex e-priam. They now have a gazelle that similarly has a motor but can accommodate two kids. Anyway. The bassinet is longer than typical so it lasted us longer. The stroller itself is a BEAST. The motor kicks in when you’re going uphill, downhill, or go on uneven terrain like grass, gravel, sand, snow. It also has this thing where you push in the wheels so you can safely get the stroller up and down the stairs with the kid in it. The basket doesn’t fit too too much. Two things here: 1) we’ve never actually had an issue with this but maybe we just don’t lug around crap I’m not sure (I always thought I’m not a minimalist mom) and 2) the basket weight limit they cite is crap. We’ve put like 40 pounds of groceries and other stuff in there all the time with zero issues. The car seat that is made by the same company reclines flat in the stroller which prolongs how long you can have a baby in a car seat. It won’t recline flat in the car. We’ve also used it for 2.5 years and it looks and drives like new. The stroller is expensive. The gazelle version is half the price. I can’t speak to it at all because I’ve never seen it live but I suspect the bassinet is smaller.

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 actually ended up with the e-priam, but we got it used from fb marketplace so it was cheaper than buying most strollers new! It's definitely heavy but it's nice you don't have to control the throttle yourself. The people I got it from lived in Glen Park and they said it was basically necessary for them. They only were selling it because they had a second kid, and they got the e-gazelle. They said they liked the e-priam better if you only have the one child. We haven't done a lot of stroller walking yet but already I can say that having the braking for downhill is SO GOOD. The only thing is that I would love to have the bassinet attachment but it's very expensive and hard to find on fb marketplace, since Cybex has different seats for all of their strollers. The e-gazelle would likely be easier to find attachments for. I don't know where in the city you live though! I will say I haven't seen anyone else with this stroller around yet

Current stroller is great. Cybex e Priam. Baby loves it, so we do. Kid number 3 now. Before with 2nd daughter we had vista. She hated it. Sold in brand new condition. For car seat idk, she is 96% tall and barely fits her car seat. Should buy convertible, we rarely drive and never used it on a stroller at all.
