It comes with a carrycot approved for sleep at night and can easily be converted to a double pushchair when the timing is right.

Thule is a brand known for its cool and practical products and the Shine stroller is no different. It's among the lightest strollers on the market, and feels solid and sturdy in your hands despite its simple design. It is also extremely versatile that it can be used as a bassinet, or Newborn Inlay from birth, as well as an Maxi Cosi car adapter.

Contrary to other lightweight strollers like the Shine will not let you down when it comes to cargo storage either. Its 22-pound capacity lets you to take everything you require for a day of travel without having to leave anything behind.

The wheels are also easy to attach to the frame. They clip on straight from the box. The bassinet is also easy to attach and comes with handles that are similar to those of a Moses basket. The pram 2in1 folds down to a compact and small size, which means it can fit in even the tiniest of cars.

Thule's canopy air purifier is also an excellent feature. It comes with an air filter that eliminates dust, bacteria, viruses, pollen and other nasty things. The company claims it can remove 150 litres of air per minute and connects to an app that shows the air quality in your area.

The only drawback is the price. While it's cheaper than other 2 in 1 buggy-in-1 prams complete kit still costs more than PS1,000. This is especially difficult to accept when there are other options like Thule Spring. Thule Spring, which is lighter and smaller and costs half the price.

The durability of Thule's strollers is legendary and I've seen them tested at the Thule Hillerstop headquarters in Sweden. They drop prams from heights and then slam them down slopes, and then ride them across bumpy tracks in the snow to test their quality and endurance. They certainly come out looking good!
