Easywalker Buggy XS – what is the real weight capacity of this pushchair?

26 Feb 2020

Hi Eli.

I would like to confirm the weight capacity of the Easywalker Buggy XS. The Strollerbase description states that the seat can hold up to 20 kg, but the official website claims the maximum weight of the child should be only 15 kg. Is your information verified?

Hello!

The total weight capacity of the Easywalker Buggy XS is stated differently for different countries. I suppose it is due to the regulations and other specific requirements of each country. I usually take into account the most the highest possible weight capacity I can find - I mean if, e.g., in the USA the buggy can carry 22 kg, what is the difference in Europe if it's the same model with no changes..?

In this case, the total weight capacity of up to 20 kg was stated for some of the countries, while you'll find a recommendation of 15 kg for multiple European countries. However, the manufacturer would not have mentioned 20 kg if the stroller can't hold as much in real situations.

Generally, a three-year-old child weighs about 15 kg, and the stroller can clearly handle that weight. If you don't push the limits too far, any average stroller should be able to carry more than that.

Your -very berry- Eli.

Now, this is your place to ask. I'm listening.
