Just a few weeks ago my Graco Evo Mini turned up for review. My first thoughts were detailed on this YouTube video here..
The first thing I noticed when unpacking it was the compact size…
Same length as baby Emma’s bouncer! The exact folded size with wheels attached is actually L79.8xW48.3xH22cm super compact!
I have a small car boot, and knew in no uncertain terms that this would fit, before I had even tried. It is actually so small that I can fit it into my foot well which is brilliant.
Sturdy. This is so sturdy for a lightweight pushchair, the frame feels solid. Going up and down kerbs has been brilliant, it feels solid and I trust it with my baby girl as well as my toddler. There is no squeaks or rattles, and the handlebar feels rigid and strong.
Slimline. The Evo Mini is slim line, and means it fits through doorways and aisles of shops easily.
Spacious. Despite the small size of the pushchair when folded, and how slimline it is when unfolded, the seat unit space is not compromised. My son outgrew one of his pushchair seat units before he was One, as he is so long, but he still fits in this at 3 and 106cms tall! Although we don’t use a pushchair that often for him, when he is poorly it has been a school run live saver! As you can see, he still has plenty of headroom, and he was sat slightly more forward than normal.
Massive Hood. The hood looked massive, and after using it I am impressed, it blocks the sun out of little ones eyes really well.
Large shopping basket. One of the things that I find when you get a lightweight stroller, is the lack of a shopping basket, but the basket on the Evo Mini is large….so large Marky can fit inside. Please note, this is not recommended and not recommended for use like this, ever!
However, I can recommend it is large enough for all this…
Well fitting raincover. Yes we live in the UK, bad weather is what we get for the majority of the year, so a raincover which is easy to put on and keeps your child covered, is a must. This does just that, it has velcro to secure it on. It is folds up nicely under the pushchair.
To summarise, the Graco Evo Mini is slimline, spacious, compact and has a massive hood and helpful large shopping basket. I think for the RRP of £179.99, this is a brilliant price and you will struggle to get a better pushchair for this price, I am yet to find one! You can find out more about the Graco Evo Mini online at http://www.graco.co.uk/cdetail.php?catCode=134 and you can buy it exclusively at Mothercare.
We were sent a Graco Evo Mini for the purpose of this review, all thoughts are our own and 100% honest.
