Steelcraft Enigma Layback

Compact but heavy – I received this as a secondhand pram. It came with the boot cover and I believe it is a nice- looking and very solid pram. it is suitable from birth but I used this for my daughter from around 6 months of age. It has a full recline, comes with a baby head support/liner, peekaboo window, and a handy large pocket on the back of the hood. There… Read more

are a couple of things I dislike about this item: I feel it is heavy for an umbrella fold stroller, and its folded length is very long; I also dislike how the canopy distorts because of the way it folds. The black vinyl gets hot on a sunny day so your child must be careful not to burn their feet on it.

All up this is a good pram if you want something less bulky for frequent trips to the mall. Reliable, strong, pram features built on a stroller Canopy distorts from regular use

Good – I thought this was an excellent pram. My hubby was dying to buy something for the baby when i was about 6 months pregnant because I kept telling him we should wait before buying anything but he made me go to the baby shops to buy a pram. The sales assistant saw us looking a more expensive pram and she shouted out "you dont want that pram" so we… Read more

looked at another one and she shouted out again "you dont want that one either" so I called back "which one do we want" and this was the one she suggested. It was about $600 cheaper than the other ones we looked out and I figured she wouldn't do herself out of a larger sale if it wasn't true. Anyway my hubby insisted we buy it and I figured it was cheap enough that if it turned out to be useless it wouldn't be to much of a waste.

As it turns out we love it for what we use it for - You probably wouldn't be able to push it while jogging though. Lightweight, easy to fold and compact so doesn't take up the whole car boot. It is difficult to access underneath basket when fully reclined

OK – was a great pram till he started getting heavy then noticed the impracticalities of it i di enjoy having it as not many others had it but ended up throwing it out as was to expensive to repair expected it to last longer and be safer for parents use great colours suitable for either sex cheap to buy looks comfortable and practical easy to fold and… Read more

fits most boots and fits through checkouts very hard to recline like others said lost skin in attempts to do so not much room for shopping broke within 8 months of use parents hard to access front wheels hard to turn

Bad – Love the light compact feel when pushing around the shops for quick trips but would prefer a more sturdy pram for longer shopping expeditions to be able to fit shopping underneath in basket alleviating the carry load in my hands when trying to control a toddler. Would not recommend due to the recline mechanism it is extremely painful when your… Read more

finger gets pinched in it. Lightweight for quick shopping trips which is what i purchased it for. Easy to steer around shops. Easy to fold down and fits in boot very well. Small basket which doesn't hold much is impossible to get to when baby is sleeping which is nearly all the time for the first few months. Long harness straps which are impossible to fit a smaller baby tight enough so she tends to slip to the side when in a seated position although i am yet to find a pram that this hasn't happened with. Baby seems to sweat alot with the seating material and bottom part where legs are can get hot as previous reviewer mentioned. Not good to use for long walks very bumpy ride for baby. Recline function for seat is hard to use and i have got my finger caught in this twice now the second time resulting in a huge chunk of skin being taken off the inside of my knuckle and lots of bleeding which is a little difficult with a baby and a toddler to deal with at the same time.

Good – I would not use this stroller from birth. I bought it when my son was 7 months and been quite happy with it. He is awake most of the time in it (especially at 18 months) so the basket underneath is not a problem to reach. I would completely satisfied with it if it seat more upright- i'm annoyed i didnt check this when i bought it. But its weight,… Read more

sturdiness and ease to use are all excellent. very light, easy to fold and fit in boot and easy to manuevore, can fit in in any store/aisle i've been in. have trouble occasionally lying seat back- also got my finger stuck and lost a bit of skin. The basket cannot be reached when child is sleeping. The hood disfigured in the heat, but only the once and was fixed under warranty. I do not like the way the seat slants back, so my child is not upright- it frustrates him.

Bad – I regretted this purchase. Whilst lightweight etc, I found this hard to push and my daughter was uncomfortable. I bought another brand and am 10 times happier with it and so is my daughter. Lightweight, easy to fold, easily fits in car, great for traveling and shopping, narrow, suitable for newborn and compatible with unity capsule. Hood pops… Read more

off when folding, not as easy to steer as other strollers, difficult to access basket, especially with seat reclined, my child was not comfortable in this stroller- she slumped to the side. As a result she never slept in it and was only happy in there for a short time. We ended up buying a different brand and she is so much more comfortable that she sleeps in it regularly and is happy to sit for longer.

Excellent – We have had 4 different prams and this is the best. Compact and light. So easy to use. Moves around the shop displays etc really easily. Excellent. Really easy to use, fits capsule in, light, easy to control
