Silver Cross - Wave 3

I’m not sure stroller compatible + 360 + used lasts while toddler exists. We went for the first two of those three. We got the maxi-cosi pebble 360 with the isofix base. It not only swivels but also pulls out towards you to make it extra easy to access. We then got the extra adapters for the silver cross wave and could use them together. Was really nice when he was younger to be able to buckle him in while in the house and then just lock the entire seat in instead of me having to bend over post c-section to strap him in. We’ll need a different seat once my son is over 13kg but it uses the same isofix base.

We did something similar. I have a silver cross wave as our every day buggy for cobblestone streets or going out into the country and then have a Babyzen yoyo for travel

The better it is on uneven terrain/inclines the less foldable and heavier it’s going to be. You’ll have to decide if you want to split the difference and get something in the middle or get two. We ended up getting two. We have a silver cross one that barely folds down and is relatively heavy but it’s incredibly sturdy, has great suspension, a massive basket and has been taken on many a countryside walk across mud, gravel, rocks etc. We then also have a yoyo for travel that folds down small enough to go in the overhead compartment in a plane.

I’d absolutely get a compact stroller for travel as well. We got a similar stroller to you (the silver cross wave) as it’s sturdy and good for all terrain but it barely folds down. We can take it on vacations where we drive but no way we’d do it by plane. We got a Babyzen yoyo secondhand at half price to use when travelling and it’s been brilliant being able to take it onboard the plane with us.

The Silver Cross Wave has been a great stroller for us! Easy to steer with a heavy toddler on the front and has a bassinet option for baby

You're going to have trouble with this for multiple reasons. 1. Budget - $500 is pretty low for a durable stroller. Most will be closer to $700-$1200. Although I did see that Thule Urban Glide 2 is on sale at Amazon right now for under $500 2. Purpose - jogging, travel, compact, all terrain, newborn-toddler, single, double, tandem... there are a million types of strollers that all serve a different purpose. Those purposes may seem silly now, but they do matter. 3. Kids' preferences - your kid may HATE whatever stroller you choose making it a total waste of money. Like I got a single stroller that could be converted into a double (SilverCross Wave). My first loved it. Used it everywhere, then my second came and they DESPISED being front/back. We had to buy a side-by-side stroller so they could see each other (Zoe Twin) - -Another note is that a lot of jogging strollers (which is what you should look at if you want all-terrain), are meant to only be used from 6-9+ months. You may be able to find one with a car seat adapter, but not a newborn bassinet. Jogging strollers will also be heavier, bulkier, and not fold as compactly - so make sure it will fit in your car or home storage. The good news is there are always a ton of jogging strollers available used on FB marketplace. I've gone through 5 strollers and wagons in three years (SilverCross Wave, SilverCross Jet, Wagonfold W4, Zoe Twin, and a jogging stroller) My recommendation would be to get a travel stroller that has a lay-flat seat and is compatible with your newborn car seat, get through postpartum, let baby develop some head control, and THEN get a jogging stroller. I also recommend going to a local baby store and actually try pushing whichever stroller you get in person before purchasing!

Silver cross wave. We have an uppababy vista and while I love it I don't love that I HAVE to buy a $300 rumble seat to have two kids sitting in it. It's infuriating that I can't put the toddler seat on the bottom and a newborn on the top!

We wanted a single to double option, and ended up with the silver cross wave 3 with the clek liing infant seat. The silver cross wave is sturdy and perfect for walks, but it takes up tons of space in the trunk. So we’re buying a silver cross travel stroller to allow us to be more mobile. Of all the single to double options, the wave has the most reasonable option of toddler up front and baby closer to the parent up top.

Bugaboo Donkey hands down. We had the Silver Cross Wave system, which is one behind the other. It was fine while they were newborn in the car seats, but they wanted to see each other after the first few months and even the "universal" Silver Cross ride-on board for our oldest doesn't work with the Wave. Most tandems (in front and behind) are much wider than you think, and not actually that different than some of the side by sides. The Wave was so easy to drive, but was simply so long it caused issues plus the twins wanted to interact, so we switched to a used Bugaboo Donkey. Was 100% the right move. The Donkey is also collapsible so it can be used as a single pram if someone does occasionally only take one twin out, though not sure how often that realistically will happen as I can't think of a single time that happened for us. Both prams took up about the same amount of boot space. Even if you decide to not get the Donkey, get a side by side, not a tandem. Having driven a few of both, they're not that much narrower.

FTM here too - we went with the silver cross wave system - comes with a bassinet and a chair and works with the infant car seat we bought (clek liing). So far easy to set up and use. We splurged on this too as I like to walk a lot and it came with both the bassinet and seat. 

Baby is three months and we have the silver cross wave as our regular stroller and the silver cross jet we used for travel and I really love both of them. I would also like to get a Thule chariot at some point. We have a pretty rambunctious dog so the weight and durability of the wave has been helpful in not getting toppled over when walking with both of them

Had Silver Cross Wave and loved it. It is a tank - once an idiot on electric scooter ran into the pram in Chelsea turning a corner on a sidewalk, and the baby didn't even wake up, even though the bags fell off. The pram is very heavy, but it worked for me bc we were in central London and I mainly walked places or took a black cab. I kike walking, and having a comfy pram with loads of storage was great. If I had to take the tube, I used our travel pram (Silver Cross Jet). Now that we are in zone 3 and I use the car several days per week, was planning on going with Yoyo after the bassinet stage - the Wave frame is heavy and bulky for the car use.

We opted for the Silver Cross Wave for everyday and Doona for travel! We will be buying the Silver Cross Jet as a travel stroller when baby outgrows Doona. The Nuna Pipa car seat is compatible with the Silver Cross Wave, we purchased the adapters.
