Ickle Bubba Venus Double Stroller (Space Grey with Black Handles)

Product Information

Boasting a five-point harness, UPF 50+ sun hood (essential for sun protection), and a sturdy footbrake, the Ickle Bubba Aries is a reassuringly safe buggy.

Unpacking the Ickle Bubba Venus Prime took a super-speedy 15 minutes, and the instructions (both guide pictures and text) were simple to follow. The wheels are large, have thick treads and feel really high quality and ready for anything – plus, I really like the fact the treads are in the shape of hearts when looked at from my pushing vantage! Claire says, “I love that the brake is in the middle saving me from having to remember which side it is. The stroller doesn't fold to cabin size, but it is very compact and extremely lightweight to carry at only 6.

The soft leatherette handle and bumper bars are easy to clean, ensuring a pristine appearance at all times. It was quick and easy to assemble and the foldaway method is by far the easiest I’ve experienced with a double. Also, once it’s folded, it takes up very little space when storing in the house so I found my porch to be a lot less cluttered in comparison to other doubles I’ve used before. We have used this buggy for everyday use as well as for running and enjoy pushing it as it is super smooth on all terrains.

Ickle Bubba continues to wow with its latest launch, as the nursery brand unveils its first ever double buggy. Kerbs are handled with ease and I haven't experienced any of the front wheel wobble I’ve seen before with other pushchairs. And, my favourite feature, it has a handy zipped pocket in the hood, just the right size for your keys/phone/wallet. Boori operate a deposit system: At checkout you will be asked to pay a deposit, with the remaining balance to be paid directly to Boori within 2 working days. When it was done up correctly, my son couldn't climb out which is reassuring when rushing around from place to place, and the straps were easy to do up and undo quickly.

But whether you’re getting your head round home birthing or wondering about weaning, the important thing to remember is: you’ve got this.

The game-changing one-handed auto-fold mechanism means the buggy folds itself down when you press two buttons on the handlebar. Introducing the lightweight and nimble Venus Double Stroller, perfect for every family adventure with two in tow!Its handy auto-fold mechanism is a particular highlight as it allows the stroller to fold down in a matter of seconds - a game-changer for busy parents who travel often, whether that’s in the car or on public transport.

Our tester Claire says, “I would highly recommend this stroller as a lightweight, easy-to-open-and-fold option for parents who are on the go a lot. Double travel systems are generally around 11-16kg (roughly 25-35lbs), with double jogging strollers at the top of that range. Ventilated roll-up fabrics help keep your children cool in warm weather, while the full-length protective rain cover keeps them dry in the rain. Its frame is made from aluminium, which helps to keep it lightweight, and the PU wheels provide extra shock absorption on different terrain. Mum of two Claire says, “The harness clips are all plastic which doesn't initially feel very luxurious, but they do the job well, which is what's most important when it comes to safety.My twin girls are also quite tall for their age so tandem pushchairs in the past have always been a little cramped for them but the side-by-side version from Ickle Bubba offers lots of room with a great seat length and adjustable calf rests.
