We had the maxi cosi lara2 for our oldest, it was great. Went abroad twice with us, and once to Mew Zealand when I lent it to a friend. Still in good condition so will get used again for our second. So would definitely recommend

I have the bugaboo fox 5 and the maxi cosi Lara 2 as our holiday/travel pram, which it is great for but absolutely could not use it every day. The brake gets in the way and it’s just not as sturdy. I know the fox 5 is bigger but I would absolutely always recommend bugaboo. They just feel so well made and well thought out for every day

We've just got the Maxi Cosi Lara 2 from amazon as it was recommended to us. Very light to handle (overall it's very light so not great if you need to put loads in the basket), easy to collapse and put up with 1 hand.

TLDR baby is now 8 months and we've just swapped from a huge Silvercross pram to a lightweight, easy to fold Maxi Cosi pram. We bought a Silvercross travel system on FB marketplace for £100. The seller had barely used it, it had every single accessory you could think of, bassinet, car seat, all the rain covers, etc. It's been brilliant for the last 8 months, but we've been fed up of it taking up the entire boot, so we've picked up a Maxi Cosi Lara 2 (apparently suitable from newborn) new in the prime day sales for £130. I'll resell the Silvercross pram as although the wheels now have some wear, it's in otherwise excellent condition.

Just to give an alternative to thr joolz Aer (which I agree is great!) we recently got a Maxi Cosi Lara 2 off the back of a recommendation from a friend. It cost £~130 in the black Friday sale and we're pleased with it so far, it's very light and easy to 1 handed fold down. It lies flat and has a decent sun shade. It's not as smooth as the joolz, however compared to the massive travel system we had before, it feels great!

I actually do think you need two lol! We have the uppa baby which is great for snow, the basket is soo huge so Great for jackets bags everything honestly. But it’s way too heavy to travel with so I have the maxi cosi lata for that! It’s great but I really missed the basket size and smoothness of the uppa baby when I was travelling but knew it would be impossible to take with me

I have the Maxi Cosi travel system and a compact SUV - Mitsubishi RVR and agree with this. It fits well in the back, but the passenger seat needs to be moved up extremely closely to the dash. It doesn’t fit in the middle well because then both seats need be adjusted the same. I do like it overall though, I saw many reviews about the wheels being bad but it’s worked nicely for us (only been using it 3 weeks so far) for casual walks. I don’t find the car seat too heavy, but to be fair I didn’t test a lot.

Our Maxi Cosi travel system is wonderful. There are a few different style options but they all have the same stroller with bassinet that converts to a seat for bigger kids & todlers, and attachments for carseat. Highly recommend.
