Loved It

The Ickle Bubba Altima travel system impressed UK parents with its blend of style, functionality, and value. Many compare it favourably to premium brands like Bugaboo, praising its sturdy yet lightweight design, generous storage, and versatile features from newborn to toddler. A few find the one-handed fold tricky at first, but most agree it's an excellent choice for city living or active families needing a high-quality yet affordable option.

What parents love

Stylish and premium-feelingParents love the Altima's sleek, modern look, with metallic and leatherette details that give it an upscale feel.
Versatile from birth to toddlerThe Altima's carrycot, reversible seat, and multiple recline positions allow it to adapt as the child grows, making it a great long-term investment.
Smooth ride and handlingLarge wheels and a sturdy frame provide a comfortable ride over different terrains, while the lightweight chassis is easy to steer and manoeuvre.

Worth knowing

One-handed fold can be trickyWhile the Altima's one-handed fold is a selling point, some parents find the process a bit fiddly and not as intuitive as advertised.
Low bumper barA few parents note the bumper bar sits quite low, which could be inconvenient for taller children.
Bulky when foldedDespite its lightweight frame, the Altima is still quite large and bulky when folded, which could be an issue for small car boots or tight storage spaces.

Best for

  • City-dwelling parents who need a stylish yet practical travel system
  • Active families seeking a high-quality, all-terrain pram on a budget
  • Growing families wanting a single travel system from newborn to toddler

May not suit

  • Parents with very limited boot or storage space
  • Taller children who may find the bumper bar uncomfortably low

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Check the folded dimensions to ensure it will fit in your car boot and storage space.

Getting the Most Out of It

Spend some time practising the one-handed fold until it becomes second nature.

Safety Note

Always use the harness and bumper bar to keep your child secure, especially on uneven terrain.
