Pros and cons
Ickle Bubba
Pros
- The lightest stroller in the comparison weighs 4.9 kg and places 2 of 42 brands, with a one hand fold and a cabin size fold on the same collection.
- A warranty of 2 to 4 years across the stroller range, plus 14 days to return a purchase after delivery.
- Stroller types listed are full size, compact and travel, and the jogging and pram options do not appear in the Kids2Shop range of full size, compact and travel.
Cons
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, so there is no phone line for a problem that cannot wait for an email.
- Mattress included is a no for the Coleby Classic bed, so the 140 x 70cm mattress is a separate cost on top of a frame that converts to a toddler bed.
- A product safety notice covers the Solar Group Isofix car seat, listed as Solar Group 1 2 3 Isofix Car Seat 01/02/2024 23/02/2024, so owners of that seat should read it before fitting.
Mamazing
Pros
- Prices start at $89.99, a first purchase that sits well under the €58.11 median free delivery threshold across the site.
- A one hand fold and a cabin size fold are both stated, and 96.7% of ranked brands fold down to cabin size.
- The lightest listed weight is 5.3 kg, lighter than the 8.23 kg upper quartile in the strollers ranking.
Cons
- Mattress included reads no for the Evonest crib, so the outlay runs higher than at brands that bundle a mattress.
- The range is a single market, US, so parents buying elsewhere compare other names.
- Sleep products meet astm f833 and rental option reads no, so a short stay still means a full outlay on the crib.
Who each suits
Ickle Bubba
Who it suits
- Parents assembling a full set in one place, since crib, cot and bassinet and infant, convertible and all in one sit in the same catalogue.
- Travellers who want a one hand fold, a cabin size fold and a 4.9 kg frame, where the Kids2Shop range of full size, compact and travel stops at full size, compact, travel and travel system options.
- Shoppers in the United Kingdom, GG and IM who want 14 days to return a purchase without visiting a store.
Who should look elsewhere
- Parents set on a wrap, ring sling or hip seat carrier, because the only carrier type listed is soft structured and a carrier specialist is a better stop for that choice.
- Families who want a double specialist, since Harppa Baby's double is built around double models, while Ickle Bubba spreads across full size, compact and travel.
- Parents hoping for connected sleep monitoring, since smart features are a no on the bed and a monitor brand is the better route.
Mamazing
Who it suits
- US parents who want a single brand to cover a stroller and a first crib
- Travellers who need a cabin size fold and a one hand fold
- Parents pairing a bassinet setup with a car seat they already own
Who should look elsewhere
- Parents shopping outside the US, since the range covers a single market at US
- Anyone wanting a double stroller, where the Evenflo Company range at full size, compact and travel goes wider
- Buyers who expect a mattress in the box, since mattress included reads no for the sleep range crib

Questions about each
Ickle Bubba
How much do Ickle Bubba strollers cost?+
Stroller prices run from £99 to £1,099 across the collection. Both are product prices paid at purchase rather than a plan that renews, so the entry figure is the whole outlay for a smaller frame. Since both numbers are charged at checkout, they compare more directly with rival brands than a monthly fee would.
How small do the strollers fold, and do any suit cabin luggage rules?+
A one hand fold and a cabin size fold are both confirmed on the stroller collection, and the folded size for the compact model is 45 x 25 x 56 cm. The lightest frame weighs 4.9 kg, well under the 7.34 kg median for the category, so the small end of the range suits airports, stations and small flats.
Mamazing
How much does a Mamazing stroller cost?+
The stroller range starts at $89.99 and reaches $499.99 at the top. That entry price places Mamazing in 6 of 43 brands in the strollers ranking, while the top price sits in 14 of 41.
Does a Mamazing stroller fold with one hand?+
A one hand fold is stated, and the folded shape measures 48.3 x 25.4 x 61 cm. The fold is also a cabin size shape, which 96.7% of brands in the strollers ranking manage, so the fold suits overhead storage and aircraft cabins.
