Pros and cons
Baby Plus
Pros
- A money-back period of 30 days, ranking 5 of 30 compared stores on returns.
- A catalogue of 110 brands, 2 of 10 compared stores on range.
- Walking gear covers full size, compact and travel system, and the car seat pages cover infant, convertible and booster in the same place.
Cons
- Standard delivery costs €6.95, ranking 17 of 23 compared stores on delivery cost.
- Free delivery only starts at €50, placing it 12 of 28 compared stores on that threshold.
- Stroller prices start at €599, well above €42.97 at the lower end of listings across the site.
Silver Cross
Pros
- Lightest listed pushchair weight is 5.6 kg, among the lighter figures on the comparison.
- The Nia folds with one hand and to a cabin-friendly size, with folded dimensions of 54 x 45 x 23.
- Seat range covers infant, convertible and all in one, so a newborn setup through to a booster can come from one maker.
Cons
- The top of the range reaches £3,715, so a full travel system pushes the outlay well beyond the entry point of £149.
- Pushchair types cover full size, compact and travel, and the pram and double formats sit at the rarer end of what the comparison lists.
- Support runs on phone and help centre only, with no live chat or email contact listed.
Who each suits
Baby Plus
Who it suits
- Parents shopping in the Netherlands who want a long returns window and one site for gear, car seats and sleep.
- Parents building a full first kit, with sleep products in cot and mattress and carriers in soft structured, wrap and hip seat on the same shop.
- Shoppers who prefer a named range over a marketplace, with 110 brands listed.
Who should look elsewhere
- buybuy BABY, if a free delivery threshold of $49.99 fits your basket size better than €50.
- Mothercare, if the free delivery threshold of SGD 60 lines up better with how you shop in your market.
- Albee Baby, if you would rather clear $99 for free delivery than €50.
Silver Cross
Who it suits
- Parents starting from birth who want a lie-flat seat, since the Nia lists lie flat seat.
- Families who want pushchair, car seat and sleep space from one maker, with cots and a bedside crib in cot, bedside crib and mattress.
- Travellers who want a fold that meets cabin size and a warranty behind the pushchair.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone on a tight budget, since the range runs to £3,715 and Evenflo Company covers a similar set of stroller types at full size, compact and travel.
- Shoppers wanting a live chat or email route, because support runs on phone and help centre.
- Buyers outside GB and IN, where Kids2Shop lists a comparable stroller spread of full size, compact and travel.

Questions about each
Baby Plus
How much is delivery and when is it free?+
Standard delivery costs €6.95, and orders of €50 or more ship free. That means a small top-up to your basket often costs less than paying the delivery fee. For bigger items like a stroller, the free delivery threshold is usually cleared in one go.
How long do I have to return something?+
You have 30 days to change your mind, a longer returns window than most stores in this comparison. That is the safety net to keep in mind on a car seat or a cot, since a seat you dislike after a week at home is far easier to send back inside a generous window.
Silver Cross
What does a Silver Cross pushchair cost at the entry point and at the top?+
The pushchair and stroller range starts at £149 and reaches £3,715. That is a broad spread, so the entry price is only a guide to the cheapest single pushchair. A full travel system with a car seat and a cot will sit well above the entry figure.
Which Silver Cross pushchair is the lightest to carry?+
The lightest listed pushchair weight is 5.6 kg, and that model places among the lighter options in our comparison. The Nia also folds with one hand and folds to a cabin-friendly size, measuring 54 x 45 x 23 folded.
