Cheap Pushchairs For All Terrains
Based on the lifestyle you have and your preferences, a low-cost pushchair that is suitable for all terrains could be a great investment. The most affordable strollers are light and easy to fold, steer and transport.
This is a great choice for those with limited space or an insufficient boot. Our testers loved how compact it folded, with the frame overlapping and wheels tucking into it to make space.
Maxi-Cosi Zelia 2-in-1
The Maxi-Cosi Zelia 2-in-1 is a nifty and affordable option that transforms from a lie-flat pram to a seat as your baby grows. It can be used right from birth using the included light Mico Luxe infant car seat, which comes with Side Impact Protection and premium PureCosi fabrics to keep your child comfy. The pram mode is also easy to convert, and you can decide if you want your child to face you for reassurance or out into the world to see the sights.
This pushchair features a large shopping basket, smart one-handed recline and a handy one-hand fold. Its large canopy has a flip-out visor and peek-aboo window to shield your baby from the sun. Its expandable hood gives your baby additional UPF 50 protection and a padded seat with an ergonomic shape ensures they're comfortable and secure. The cup holder is handy, and there's also a storage compartment for everything you need.
Our tester took the Zelia for a stroll through the town and was pleasantly surprised by the way it performed. Its front wheels can either be locked in a forward-facing position or a quick flick of the switch on each allows them to rotate to help navigate through rough terrain. She tried it out on a bumpy, stony trail and was impressed by how well it managed even though it isn't designed for a lot of off-road activities.
She was also happy by the ease with which the seat unit was to fold. It has a lever at the back of the chassis that is easy to pull and reach, which raises the seat off its base. It's a great design since you don't have to remove the seat to open it and fold. Just pull up on the catch. The handlebar can be adjusted to match your height too. The Zelia comes with a rain cover, booster cushion and cup holder, and you can purchase Maxi-Cosi capsule adaptors separately. It is suitable for any Maxi-Cosi car seat. It's a lightweight, 2-in-1 stroller that offers an excellent value and comes with a 3 years of warranty.

The mums were impressed by the ease to move around and how light the stroller felt. The padded seat, large extendable hood and padded seat were a hit with them. It was also a plus that it came with a free cup holder and rain cover.

Baby Jogger City Mini
The City Mini is a full-size stroller that doesn't really make a statement in any way except that it's very lightweight and compact when folded. It also scores well across all categories. However, it doesn't score as highly as some of its peers due to a poorly-placed peek-a-boo and storage that's somewhat blocked.
But, it's an excellent stroller, and one of our top picks for families who need something that will get them through daily use and even occasional adventures. It has a very wide footrest and is well cushioned, so the little ones will be able to relax. The seat reclines fairly flat however, it took us two hands to achieve. The adjustable calf supports are an attractive feature that will allow your child's feet to lift up when they are tired.
Like many of the other strollers on our list, the City Mini has a huge canopy that is UV50 and that parents love. The sun shade is constructed beautifully and can be pulled completely down. This is fantastic because it shields your child from sun, without having to constantly tuck the shade back in place.
Another excellent aspect of the City Mini is that it is able to be converted into double strollers by attaching an accessory kit. It is possible to use any Baby Jogger car-seat and create an entire travel system from the beginning. The only downside to this is that the addition of a second seat changes the look and feel of the stroller significantly and some parents might find it a bit difficult to manage once they are used to it.
Another option to the City Mini is the City Mini GT Double Stroller. This model is slightly pricier than the single City Mini, but it comes with some additional features including "forever-air" rubber tyres. It also comes with suspension that allows it to be used for off-road adventures. It comes with an adjustable handlebar as well as a parking brake that can be operated by hand and a more user-friendly design than the regular City Mini.
