Silver Cross Zest Stroller Review

Silver Cross is one of the trusted and reputed brands in Europe for its nursery products. Millions of people who want to give their babies a comfortable start love Silver Cross. It stands on its three pillars: uncompromising quality, practical designing and painstaking artisanship. The secret of their prams is the finest material they use where babies feel snug and safe.

Difference between Old & New Silver Cross Zest Stroller

The main difference between the versions is that the old version could accommodate only kids from 3 months and above but the new Zest Silver Cross is ideal for the newbies. Moreover, new zest is 700 grams less than the old Zest, which means it is more compact and easy to carry. Funky prints, colours, deep and large shopping basket, and contemporary designing gives the new Zest a fresh look.

If we go by the definition, then strollers are lightweight, easy to use, and portable with simple features. All these are included in a great product of Silver Cross, the Zest. It is a sturdy, front facing pushchair weighing only 5.8 kgs. This extremely lightweight and super comfortable product can accommodate children up to 25 kgs. Featuring in the tall back seat and a spacious seat it is an ideal pushchair for the growing munchkins. Above all, it gives you an option of flat lie seat, which makes it an even more worthy product.

Easy to Grip Handles

It has squish, soft gripping handles, which gives you an excellent grip and control over the wheels. Talking about the wheels, their manoeuvring is simple as they can be rotated 360 degrees. You will find brakes to either of the back wheels and requires only a firm push to apply the brakes and a gentle kick to the central bar to release.

The Large Canopy

The canopy is large to protect your little munchkin from the sunlight. You can lock the canopy on either of the ides using the brackets placed on each side. The flap has a spy hole to look after your baby and also it keeps the place dark while the baby is snoozing. Above all, this Zest pushchair features with a rain cover on top to protect your baby from unexpected rain.

Adjustable Reclining

However, the reclining is allowed up to 45 degrees but this pushchair is meant to be used for 3 months and old. You can easily adjust the reclining using a bracket that stops the backrest to your desired angle.

Perfect Aligned Footrest

Silver Cross knows what is right for the bay and with this in mind, they have added a footrest, which can be angled to 60 degrees. When your child becomes tall, they can rest their foot on the flexible footrest, which can be aligned from frame to front wheels.

Breezy Folding

When it comes to Silver Cross they manufacture these strollers where folding is a breeze. You can crumble this amazing product both horizontally and vertically until you get a rectangular frame at the end. Make sure that after folding you apply a little pressure on top to make sure that clips are in their place. You can always use the carry strap and sling the stroller wherever you go.

The Starfish Theme

The ventilated hood with a zip is made of UPF 50+ lining and a playful starfish design to protect your baby but with a style.

Value for Money

Some prams and pushchairs come with a higher price tag and give nothing in return. However, once you buy a Silver Cross product you will not feel the same. We cannot deny that there are many strollers available in the market under £130 but Zest Silver Cross has got something, which makes it worth your every penny. The fairly large shopping basket, big canopy, the comfortable and airy seat makes it a good deal.
