Great start to 2020 for Oyster 3

Oyster 3 Best Buy Award

2020 has started in fine style for Babystyle and the Oyster 3 Pushchair ……following in the footsteps of the original Oyster by BabyStyle, the Oyster3 Travel System has been awarded a Which? Best Buy in the Pushchair category.

The revolutionary Oyster3, is quite simply one of the ‘best pushchairs’ BabyStyle has ever designed, with the review saying, ‘The Oyster 3 is a great all-round pushchair’ and with ‘every single tester’ saying they would buy the Oyster3 because it makes life easier with its ability to fold with the seat unit attached, carrycot fitting and car seat compatibility.

We have been selling the Oyster since the original version was launched 10 years ago, we knew it would be an instant hit from the first time we saw it at the Harrogate nursery show. In those 10 years we have had thousands of happy Oyster customers, and each new model has received improvements but still retains the original Oyster usability.

Below are a few of the main benefits of becoming an Oyster 3 parent.

Larger Stroller, smaller fold.

In a world where space saving engineering is key, the Oyster3 may be larger than the Oyster2: it sits higher, has a larger footprint, larger turbine wheels and even takes a 22kg child. But making life easier, the Oyster3 fold is exceptionally compact for it’s size and it folds with the seat unit attached. There is also a retractable carry handle making it easier to handle, whether storing away or on public transport.

Versatility

This is a stroller that in pushchair mode, will fold with the seat in both the forward and rear-facing positions. Removing and refitting the seat is both easy and ergonomic; simply reach and pull up the strap nestled between the seat and backrest and lift.

The seat features:

  • Full ‘lie-flat recline’ (in both positions) making it suitable from birth
  • A 5-point safety harness
  • Shoulder pads and a headrest for extra comfort
  • An unzip extendable canopy featuring UV 50+ protection
  • A pull-out sun visor and ventilation net for hot summer days.

Design Engineering

The beautifully crafted Oyster3 chassis is available in either the popular Oyster City Grey or Mirror (chrome). It is intricately finished with a handstitched bumper bar and handle, which features a telescopic adjustment design. BabyStyle have integrated an ultra-smooth ride with new larger turbine design wheels housed by ER-foam filled tyres that are both highly durable and puncture-free. Oyster3 also features a softer suspension for multi-terrain outings as well as swivel front wheels, which are lockable via a single switch.

What’s really impressive about Oyster3 is the fact the it grows with the passenger from baby to child. There are two release buttons on the edge of the hood that when pressed simultaneously allows the parent to adjust the height of the canopy and harness without touching the straps.
