Silver Cross Surf

When we saw that the Silver Cross Surf had just launched 3 new colours in their range – I just had to have one!

In a word: stylish!

You can now get the pram in lilac, lime and tangerine, as well as black and chili - providing mums with a myriad of beautiful colours to choose from. And, at the newly reduced price of $999, the Surf is a stylish and affordable pram choice for mums.

Additionally, mums will be able to buy a ‘Surf essential pack’ in the various new colours, meaning they could buy a black Surf and then change out the colour components for a new child, or just because they felt like a change. The ‘essential pack’ includes a hood, padded apron, reversible seat liner and parasol and is $249 per pack.

The Silver Cross Surf is a unique all-terrain reversible pram and pushchair combination. The lightweight magnesium alloy chassis is air sprung, giving maximum strength and minimum weight, whilst providing unrivalled comfort and maneuverability. The seat unit faces forward and rearwards, allowing eye-to-eye contact with a newborn, and has numerous recline positions with a large adjustable hood to protect against the sun.

Supplied with the Surf is the Babynest which allows a full lie flat position for newborns and is finished with a sumptuous fleece for warmth and comfort, keeping your baby gorgeously cosy in the cooler months. And for those who need a little extra storage an additional basket is included as part of the package.

Our new Silver Cross Surf is portable and packs neatly in the boot of our car. Apart from the stylish look of the Silver Cross, it is light and has a handy ‘one-click’ brake. As it is new, I did find clicking it together a bit fiddly and took a bit of getting use to the mechanics of it.
