POP

Age: Birth to toddler

The new Silver Cross POP is distinctive, lightweight, portable stroller that folds down quickly and easily, for use from birth to toddler. It gives you the freedom to get out and about quickly and easily. As its name suggests, if you want to pop out to the shops, hop on a bus, nip over to a friend’s house for coffee or just head down to the park to feed the ducks, all you need is Pop. It’s easy to open, easy to fold, easy to store and easy to recline: it has a unique, one-handed adjustment system that smoothly lowers your baby to a recline angle suitable from birth. Its lightweight frame means that it’s also ideal if you’re thinking about heading abroad on holiday.
