4. Thule Shine

The Shine stroller 2in1 is from a brand that is known for its stylish, practical products. It is one of the lightest strollers available on the market and feels solid and robust to hold despite its simple design. It's also incredibly versatile and can be used right from birth thanks to the accessories that come with it that convert it into a bassinet Newborn Inlay, or Newborn Nest, as well as a Maxi Cosi car seat adapter (accessories are sold separately).

The Shine is not like other lightweight prams in the area of cargo storage. The 22-pound capacity of the Shine allows you to bring everything you require on a day trip without worrying about putting everything in the back.

It's also easy to put together, with the back wheels securing to the main frame right out of the box. If you choose to purchase the optional bassinet, it clicks on with ease and comes with carry handles similar to those of a Moses basket. And when you're done, the pram folds down to the perfect size, allowing you to fit it into the smallest of cars.

Thule's air purifier canopy is a standout as well, with an inbuilt fan that purifies the air you breathe to remove bacteria, viruses, pollen and other harmful contaminants. The company claims that it can clean 150 litres per minute of air and can be connected to an app which shows the air quality in the area.

The only downside is the price - although it is less than some other 2 in 1 prams, it still costs over PS1,000 for the complete kit. It's more difficult to swallow when there are cheaper alternatives, such as Thule spring. Thule spring which is smaller and lighter.

The durability of Thule's strollers is legendary and I have seen them tested at the Thule Hillerstop headquarters in Sweden. They drop prams from high places and then crash them down slopes, and then run them over bumpy trails in the snow to test their performance and strength. They look great!
