New in 2021 photo: Silver Cross Silver Cross Comet Stroller
Babies can enjoy this sweet ride from birth up to 55 pounds without any required add-ons. In this one-seated premium stroller from Silver Cross, kids can sit four ways: reclined, rear-facing, forward-facing or in a car seat (with adapters). With your purchase, you also receive a bassinet-like babynest to cocoon newborns, along with a rain cover and two aprons (one lightweight, and the other a warmer apron for chilly days). We especially love the innovative features on this stroller: Elevate adapters raise the seat 3.5 inches, bringing baby closer to to the caretaker (great for taller adults or those with back issues) and giving you more room to access the under-seat basket. And a magnetic buckle makes it easier to get baby buckled in safely.
