As your baby grows, their needs change—and so should their stroller. Whether it’s due to comfort, safety, or convenience, knowing when and why to upgrade your baby’s stroller is key to ensuring smoother experiences for both you and your child. If you’re considering a stroller upgrade, read on for expert advice.

WHEN TO UPGRADE YOUR STROLLER?
1. By Baby’s Development Stage
Newborn strollers typically include a fully reclining seat or bassinet. These are ideal for babies who need to lie flat. As your baby grows, they need a more upright seating position. That’s when it’s time to upgrade your baby’s stroller to one designed for older babies and toddlers.
The Crolla Baby Stroller Collection supports children from newborn up to 5 years (22 kg), with the exception of Crolla Fleex, which supports up to 3 years (15 kg). These models grow with your child and help reduce the need for frequent replacements. Still, if your stroller no longer meets your lifestyle or comfort needs, it may be time to explore a newer model.
2. By Weight and Size Limits
Every baby stroller has specific weight and size limits. If your little one is getting too big for their current stroller, they may start to feel cramped, or the stroller may no longer feel stable. Upgrading your baby’s stroller to a model that accommodates larger toddlers ensures both comfort and safety, making outings more enjoyable for everyone.
3. When It’s No Longer Comfortable
Is your baby fussy during stroller rides? It could be due to poor padding, stiff suspension, or limited recline options. In that case, it’s smart to upgrade your baby’s stroller to one with improved cushioning and customizable seating positions.
Crolla One and Crolla Aurora are ideal for comfort. Crolla One features ultra-breathable mesh, while Aurora offers 3D SoftAir padding. All Crolla strollers include high-quality suspension systems to ensure smooth rides.
4. When Your Lifestyle Changes
As your life changes, so do your stroller needs. If you’re a frequent traveler, a compact, lightweight stroller that’s easy to carry and folds into a small space can make your trips more convenient. Our travel-friendly stroller collection – Crolla Fleex, Crolla Air Swift and Crolla Premium Air Swift – are the perfect companions, with the ultra lightweight Crolla Fleex at 5.7 kg and the other two at 6.5 kg. All of these strollers fit the cabin-size standard and are easy to fold. Additionally, the Crolla Air Swift and Premium Air Swift feature an auto-folding system.
For active parents, consider a stroller designed with anti-shake wheel suspension and powerful all-terrain wheels. Our models with both features include the Crolla Flexxi and Crolla Flexxi Blossom.
WHY UPGRADE YOUR STROLLER?
1. Your Child’s Needs Have Changed
As babies grow into toddlers, they need more sun protection and upright seating. An upgraded model with a larger canopy and UV protection keeps them comfortable outdoors.
Models like the Crolla MiiNie, Air Swift, Flexxi, One, and Aurora come with expandable SPF 50 sunshades and multiple seating modes.
2. Improved Comfort
To upgrade your baby’s stroller means choosing one with adjustable footrests, reclining seats, and extra padding. Most Crolla models include these features, except Crolla Fleex, which lacks a leg rest but does recline.
3. Baby’s Transition to Walking
As toddlers begin walking, they may not need a stroller the entire time, but a place to rest is still important. A lightweight, foldable stroller can be a lifesaver.
Lightweight travel-friendly options:
– Crolla Fleex (5.7 kg)
– Crolla Air Swift (6.5 kg)
– Crolla Premium Air Swift (6.5 kg)
4. Improved Safety Standards
Modern strollers come with better brakes, harnesses, and locks. If your current stroller is outdated, an upgrade could offer peace of mind.
All Crolla Baby Strollers include five-point harnesses. These models also feature magnetic buckles for added safety:
– Crolla One
– Crolla Aurora
– Crolla Flexxi
– Crolla Premium Air Swift
– Crolla Flexxi Blossom
Don’t Forget About the Car Seat!
If you plan to upgrade your baby’s stroller, consider evaluating your car seat too. Many modern travel systems allow a smooth transition from car to stroller. Choosing a compatible stroller and car seat combo can streamline outings and improve convenience.
