Micralite Stroller

Launched in Europe four years ago, the Micralite has been consistently ranked the number one stroller by MotherCare Catalogue, the largest specialty juvenile retailer in the UK, with stores throughout five continents. Micralite has also been given a "Best Buy" distinction by Prima Baby Magazine and Mums Net and has received a Practical Parenting 5 Star Award. Micralite strollers are known for thier light weight, fast folding action, and ability to stand when upright when folded.

The Micralite Fastfold Stroller and Micralite Newborn Plus stroller are the absolute lightest weight and tightest folding 12" wheeled strollers on the market today. After 2 years in development, testing, and redesigns, the UK-based Micralite released the Fastfold and its infant compatible companion the Newborn System to broad acclaim and not a little excitement.

These strollers are part of a growing movement in stroller design that was inspired by the popularity of Bugaboo Strollers. With 12” rear wheels and a tiny fold,  Micralite strollers can handle any terrain at walking speeds, and minimize the burden imposed by bulky jogging strollers.

Micralite Fastfold Stroller has nearly all the benefits of owning those other high-end strollers--plus a few of its own: a small fold, smooth ride, easy push, and a very eye-catching design. The Micralite Fastfold Stroller is a compact and ergonomic stroller. It is easy to maneuver using one hand and has a single handed fold, making it great all around. The Fastfold from Micralite is designed to meet all a child's transportation needs from 3 months and up.

The removable chunky rear wheels and pneumatic tires can handle all sorts of terrain. The swiveling front wheels make it very manageable on the streets. A lightweight carrycot is easily attached and provides the child with comfort. It has all of the features needed in an effective stroller and is very lightweight. The Carrycot is fitted with a washable padded Mattress; allowing for easy cleaning. The carry straps fold into the side pocket when installed on the stroller.
