Edwards & Co vs Redsbaby
Edwards & Co Oscar MX Stroller
Features
The Edwards & Co Oscar MX Stroller is an all-terrain, three-wheel pram with a reversible, parent-facing seat. It can be used from day one, thanks to the Newborn Insert Cushion.
But that’s not all, the Oscar MX Stroller is lightweight, weighing only 10.3kg and features puncture-proof tyres.
Price
$899
Pros
Parents in the Tell Me Baby community love how lightweight and easy to manoeuvre this pram is. Lots of reviews mention that having the ability to move the seat facing forwards and backwards was a big pro too. The Carry Cot (purchased separately) also received rave reviews.
“Not only was it lightweight, but very easy to put up and put down for both my partner and,” said one reviewer.
“The pram has been to the beach, on countless kilometre walks, out a night, out at dawn break, out in the wind, out on rainy days and hot 40 degree days and has always provided amazing coverage, comfort and safety for my Bub.”
Cons
A couple of reviews mention that the canopy could be longer to protect bubs from the sun. “Only drawback I found, now that the sun’s out in full force, is that you need the additional sunshade cover as the canopy doesn’t have full shade bub’s legs,” said one parent.
Example review
“I have recently purchased this pram and absolutely love it! Super smooth and easy to manoeuvre. So light and folds compact. I have used it on The trails near home and have even been able to slowly jog with it. A nice big basket and I love that I can face baby towards me or away from me. Newborn insert came with it and is great! Also, love how it looks.”
