The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It's easy to comprehend why it has received praise from its customers. It is incredibly lightweight - the wheels and chassis weigh only 6.5kg. It is also very easy to assemble. In fact I was able put it up and running in just five minutes, which is pretty amazing considering that it also included attaching the fabric for the carrycot!
The seat is large and comfortable for Annie, who is just 12 months old. The recline lever was simple to operate. The basket has plenty of room and I am impressed that the handle bar comes with pockets to keep your phone and keys safe.
The handlebar is a bit low, which can be an issue for parents who are taller. However, it's coated in a gorgeous leather-like material that's soft and comfy and wipes down easily, making it still easy to push even with children and bags on your hands!

The puncture-proof wheels are big in size - 22cm and a whopping 30cm - which means they can handle all kinds of terrain. They also have a handy flap that opens or closes to let more air to circulate if you need it, which is a nice addition. It's a bit bigger than some pushchairs but doesn't feel heavy or bulky when you are pushing it over bumpy surfaces.
The fabric of the seat is machine washable, as are the frame and faux leather grips are simple to clean. It is also quieter than other pushchairs and I was comfortable with it on busy urban streets.

The hood can be used to block the elements of wind and rain, but it's not waterproof. The single pram can be fitted with the Comfort Wheeled board (not included) that gives your child more legroom.
