Light, nimble but still tough enough for a trip to the beach. Through the gate, down the stairs, round some tight bends, put the capsule on the frame and away – couldn’t be simpler.

So easy to steer, especially compared to our last buggy that had a fixed front wheel. The pivot makes all the difference and just feels so smooth and fluent.

The +one is superb on the bumpy grounds... went over an area with a lot of tree roots with both boys in it, and it handled it like a dream! It’s also super easy to steer with one hand holding the baby and the other pushing the stroller with Porou in!
