Pali Magic

The autofold ultra-compact
.eli
see 4 parent reviews

The Pali Magic is a lightweight, ultra-compact stroller, magical mainly for its innovative folding system. After unlocking the button situated on the handlebar and releasing the handlebar, the Magic folds automatically, using just gravity - no need for bending or any assistance related to the fold. Once folded, the stroller is able to stand independently, and you can even put it into a carry bag for protection when traveling. The carry bag is already included with the stroller. The seat can be reclined fully - something you will appreciate if you are a parent of a young child. The seat unit is featuring a small-ish but extendable hood, as well as matching belt pads.

parents say thx^^

The fold is really awesome; otherwise, it's quite a simple travel buggy. Not the most upright, not the most slanted either. For traveling and around shops, it will work.

I love the 'magic' fold. It makes my life easier (but you will pay extra for that). Otherwise, the cons of the buggy are pretty much the same as for the other travel buggies, so the fold is the only (or the only main) plus you will get. If you never had such, be prepared for quite an angled sitting position.

  • the seat is quite wide
  • the fold is really magical, super-easy and even great to look at
  • a gate-open bumper bar and travel/storage bag included
  • high weight capacity
  • nice-size canopy with UV protection
  • very short backrest
  • I don't think it can take a 22kg child in
  • the unfolding it is not so smooth, maybe a strange center of gravity

Overall, a nice second stroller for travels or to keep in the car. The fold is amazing, but I am not so thrilled about the short backrest - it is not so suitable for taller or older toddlers, which makes the nice weight capacity a bit useless.

  • Self-folding
  • Lays flat
  • Different colors and patterns to choose from (we went with the neutral beige)
  • Basket is too low to the ground and can get destroyed by high curbs (over time)
  • Length of the sleeping surface
  • Handlebar could be too low for tall dads

Quite simple, and the fabrics are not as stretched as one would imagine - but the fold and overall size + weight make it perfect for occasional use (like trips to grandparents or holidays).

Your questions about the Pali Magic

1)

How many years is the warranty for Pali Magic?

Hello, the warranty mainly depends on the country you live in - since it's usually stated by law. Also, it can depend on special promotions, etc. I suggest asking the shop you're planning to buy the stroller - in any case, the manufacturer states a warranty of two years.
