Chicco Echo Twin Stroller Coal - Black

Product Information

Britax would likely not classify the Britax B-Lively Double Stroller as an umbrella stroller; however, I would. The dark fabric is robust though and doesn’t stain easily and, while the seat covers aren’t removable, they can be wiped with a damp cloth and mild soap. During testing, mud cleaned off the frame without much effort and the wheels cleaned up well with warm water and detergent. What’s the Echo Twin like to look at? Age range: Newborn to 3 years | Maximum load: 15kg | Product weight: 13.4kg | Dimensions: 38 × 40 × 105cm (folded); 78 × 82 × 108 cm (unfolded) | Travel system-compatible: No | Orientation: Side by side What we love Despite not being able to push the pram through her front door, Liz liked the simplicity of its design and found it useful when taking her eldest to nursery and going for walks. What about the seats?

Stroller Canopy:The stroller has a single-panel canopy that helps provide both of your kids with some shade. The BABY JOY Double Light-Weight Stroller is quite affordable. While it’s not the cheapest double strollers available, it’s definitely an easier price to digest and convenient too. This is a basic umbrella stroller that works for short outings or travel as it’s safe, comfortable, lightweight, breathable, and flexible. I think this is a good option if you need to buy a double stroller that you don’t need to last forever. This would work well for preschoolers that have outgrown the need for a stroller but need a cheap option for a trip. It is Great for TravelReversible Cushion: You can switch between having a regular knitted fabric and having an air mesh fabric for the stroller seat. The knitted fabric keeps your kid warm in cold weather, while the air mesh fabric helps to improve air circulation and keep your kids nice and dry in hot weather. The buggy bumped over kerbs well and the swivelling front wheels give it a fairly tight turning circle. The handlebars are padded for comfort but not extendable, though they are a decent height which suited Liz’s tall partner (6ft 3). While the buggy can be pushed one-handed, it’s difficult to steer, which is mostly down to the split handlebar. We’ve tried so many double buggies but have found the Mountain Buggy Duet to be our favourite” - recommended by Mumsnet user, river12 Our verdict

Chicco’s Echo Twin Stroller is the double version of the popular Echo and, although basic, there’s a lot to like about it. Launched in 1958, Italian brand, Chicco, has become popular around the world for offering affordable yet functional baby products, including educational toys, bouncers, cots and buggies. From the size of the wheels to the pram’s set-up to how far the seats recline and the storage basket, there are a lot of features to consider.The handlebar is split and, though Chicco says it’s not designed to carry a changing bag, Liz hung her own off one side to test this out. Reassuringly, the buggy didn’t feel unbalanced or topple, even when her four-year-old jumped out of the seat unexpectedly. One of the biggest factors when considering what pram to choose is how much you want to spend. Double buggies can be expensive, but you don’t have to spend over the odds to get a decent model. This Britax model is pricier than many other umbrella strollers but it has the lightweight convenience of an umbrella stroller. It is of better quality than most umbrella strollers and can still work as a travel system. It has a lightweight but durable aluminum frame and adjustable handlebar that may allow you to use this as your everyday stroller. It is Great for Everyday Use

The Chicco Echo Twin Stroller has two individual baskets that sit under each seat. Unfortunately, this makes them quite small – holding up to 2.3kg each – so aren’t adequate enough to fit bulky items.
