Beautiful Design & Incredibly Easy to Use!
December 4, 2018
This stroller looks great, has a lot of different ways you can customize to fit your needs/environment, and is easy to collapse. I have a few strollers at home, including UppaBaby and Mountain Buggy, but I've found my new Cybex Mios stroller to be best one. The Mios stroller is a great combination between a high quality durable stroller and a travel stroller - I love that it feels sturdy, yet has the ability to completely fold down for ease in transporting.
Some of the features that I love the most: 1) The choice between a mesh or padded backing. You can remove the padding for hotter summer days (or even trips to the beach for easier clean-up) or with quick velcro attaching you can add the padded backing for colder days 2) The sun canopy extends to really completely cover the seating area and even in front of the child's face if it's really sunny/rainy out or if your little one is napping, as opposed to some canopies that only slightly shade. The canopy even has UPF 50+! 3) Again with the collapsing - such a great feature! Using one easy button on the back of the seat you can collapse down the seat and then using one button on the main stroller handle you can then collapse the main stroller base onto the folded seat - very simple! 4) I've yet to utilize this, but since you can easily remove the canopy and seat padding, Cybex has lots of great different color options to customize the stroller. That way, you can mix and match colors between different kids or seasons.
In terms of downside, there were only a few things that I noticed 1) Setup took a little longer than I've found with other strollers. Some of the parts such as the canopy came in a few pieces that took some time to put together. Doesn't matter much for day-to-day use since you only do it once. Overall from box opening, I was able to put the whole thing together and get the hang of the different functions within 30 minutes 2) I noticed that the mesh backing had two layers of mesh with a gap in between, so I'm a little worried of how clean-up in that area will look overtime. No issues yet, but more of a potential future concern.
Overall, very pleased with the Mios! The ride is very smooth and yet feels like it has some nice suspension. My two year old loves it and looking forward to using the add-in cot for our new little one on the way!
