What they say:

“The CYBEX PRIAM is not only beautiful, it is also the most co-ordinated 3-in-1 travel system available. Its frame allows it to be used as a pushchair with matching carry cot, a travel system with one of the award-winning CYBEX infant car seats and, later, as a luxurious forward or rear facing buggy. Extremely sturdy and versatile, yet incomparably light, the PRIAM is designed for children from birth up to 17kg. Available in seven gorgeous colours and with a comprehensive range of add ons and accessories to choose from, the PRIAM can be tailored to suit every family's needs.”

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I absolutely loved this pushchair, it’s very classy looking and designed so well. We had a lot of compliments from both friends and strangers while we were out and about. It’s a good size but it folds down nicely and comes in two parts so it can be separated if needed to fit in a smaller car. It’s so easy to put up and down and it’s not too heavy to lift. I love the fact that you can adjust the hand hold as I'm quite tall and don't like stooping over a smaller pram. It looks and moves like a dream.

How did this product make your life easier?

I like the fact that this pushchair has an easy and smooth recline when baby falls asleep. I also found it an easy pram to push. The wheels move in the direction you want them to and it’s a nice smooth ride. It made travelling very pleasant for both of us!

Would you choose this product to win?

I would choose the Cybex Priam with Lux Seat for my baby. It is one of the best! I love the fact it has a large space underneath for carrying items like shopping. It’s very generous and can fold up and down to allow for more space. It’s a beautiful looking pushchair and gives the impression of style and class. It’s so easy to handle and easy to transport.

What changes would you make to this product?

The one feature I would change is the brake. It worked perfectly fine but sometimes it was hard to tell if it was on or off. Most prams have a written or coloured system to show when the brake is on or off. I think a red line or an arrow pointing at the on/off direction would help improve this feature.

Tested by mum Aime Knight for the M&B Awards 2017:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would recommend the Cybex Priam with Lux Seat to other mums as it so easy to put up. Very easy to use/push. Baby looks so comfy when in the seat. I really like that the seat recliner is built into the back of the seat so it's easy to lie baby down if they have nodded off sitting up. It is great that you have the option to collapse the product as one unit or as two separate parts.

How did this product make your life easier?

The Cybex Priam with Lux Seat made my life easier as a mum as it is so easy to put up this makes moving baby from the car to the product so quick. The recliner was easy to use and great that it was in the back of the seat so it only needed one hand without waking up baby. It was easy to manoeuvre around. I like how lightweight and sturdy it was.

I can’t find anything I would change about the Cybex Priam with Lux Seat!

Tested by mum Sarah Kitchener for the M&B Awards 2017:

Would you recommend this to other mums?

I would definitely recommend the Cybex Priam with Lux Seat to other mums. I easily assembled the pram myself without need to look at the instructions. The design of the pram is very modern and sleek in design. It's lightweight and easy to fold once you've got the hang of it! It felt sturdy and I feel it would be able to be used for many years. My daughter looked comfortable in the pram. It was so lightweight to push and the best pram to go up and down curbs with.

How did this product make your life easier?

The pram would make life easier as a mum because of the ease of manoeuvrability. I found it so easy on country walks to go over uneven ground but also easy to use round town. The pram felt so lightweight to push and I was able to easily go up and down curbs with not issue at all. The height adjustable handle was very easy to use and the fact that it folded right down meant that when stored in the house the pram could be made very compactly.

What changes would you make to this product?

The main change I would make to the product would be the shopping basket. I didn't find it to be big enough for what I required. I generally go to the local shops pushing my daughter in the pram and I was unable to buy the normal amount of shopping. The basket is also made of material do nothing heavy could be put in there.
