Tailored for optimal support and comfort
The R82 Chilla is a flexible buggy which can be adapted as your child grows. It is built with an adjustable seat depth and back height, as well as an adjustable seat and back width using accessories. The R82 Chilla also comes with a seat which can be turned to be front or rear facing, depending on whether the child wants to view the scenery or the parent. Its adjustability supports long-term comfort and support in children, reducing the frequency of replacing your buggy.
Tilt-in-space and back recline functions support your child's rest as you journey through the city or run errands. The stroller comes with posterior tilt and back recline between 80 - 160°, which helps decrease fatigue; the features conserve your child’s energy by reducing the effects of gravity, allowing your child to engage in activities for longer.
Outdoor-ready for family adventures
From city strolls to countryside paths, the R82 Chilla supports outdoor adventures with its optional adjustable suspension. When travelling over uneven terrain, it improves stability and helps to absorb vibrations and shocks. The suspension creates a smoother, more comfortable ride for your child and greater peace of mind for you.
Maximising portability, the stroller weighs between 9.2 kg to 10 kg, depending on the size you opt for and if you include the suspension. The R82 comes in two frames. The smaller frame supports up to 43 kg while the larger frame supports up to 60 kg. The frame can carry essential items, while seat accessories provide added support, comfort and weather protection — ensuring practicality in all conditions.
Incredibly simple features
The R82 Chilla is designed to be hassle-free for caregivers. Simplicity is integrated into your routine with the R82 Chilla; its back recline does not require any tools for caregivers to make adjustments to the child's seat. The stroller removes the need for complex mechanisms without compromising on safety.
The frame can be folded with the seat and accessories mounted for optimal convenience. If space is limited, the seat and frame can also be folded separately, offering additional flexibility when loading into a car or storing at home. This practical design ensures Chilla fits seamlessly into everyday family life.
Our verdict
The R82 Chilla is a great choice for caregivers looking for a highly adaptable buggy that combines postural support and long-term adjustability. Its reversible seat, tilt-in-space and back recline functions allow children to sit upright to engage with their surroundings or recline comfortably for rest.
The Convaid Rodeo stroller is another tilt-in-space buggy with a reclining function. Similar to the R82 Chilla, the Rodeo is well known for its lightweight folding frame and compact design. The Rodeo differs from the R82 by offering 12.7 cm of seat depth extension, four seat width options and a greater weight capacity of 77 kg. If your child requires a larger, sturdier seat, the Rodeo can be a better option. However, the R82 Chilla comes with a flexible front and rear-facing seat and has a larger reclining range.
The Leggero Trak stroller comes with 45° of tilt and rear suspension. Most paediatric buggies do not come with suspension by default, making the Leggero Trak a great option for children who often travel outdoors with the family. While still lightweight, the Trak weighs 13 kg, which is slightly heavier than the R82 Chilla. In terms of adjustability and recline range, the R82 Chilla is a more flexible option.
Overall, the R82 Chilla remains an excellent option for families seeking a supportive and adaptable specialist buggy that grows with their child. The Convaid Rodeo is best if you'd like a greater range in seating sizes, and the Leggero Trak stands out with its rear suspension.
