we bought this to take out when we mind our grandchildren and it has been a blessing. It was affordable, easy to take out and easy to manoeuvre when we were out.

Fantastic addition to our Redsbaby family!
We needed a smaller pram to take on trips to visit family as our Jive 2 Platinum takes up a little too much space in our boot to be able to take the 1000 other things we need to take for our 10 month old. From ordering our Skip to it arriving at our front door was less than 18 hours! It is a great compact size but still quite sturdy, fantastic handling and our little guy is as comfortable in the Skip as he is in the Jive. Love it!

Great stroller, folds up neatly, easy to manoeuvre
This is a great stroller, it folds up neatly and is easy to manoeuvre. We previously had the Redsbaby Jive, but when our daughter reached 2.5, it was more than we needed, so we sold it and bought a Skip, which we're very happy about. Obviously doesn't hold as much in the basket as it's smaller (which is a bit annoying given we often take the pram/stroller to the market), but it handles really well and feels solid. Folds up fairly easily, once you get the hang of it. Is great for apartment living.

Handy but stopped on Qantas
We bought the skip when it first came out as we loved our full size Jive and it was more affordable then the alternative on the market. We do like it, naps on the go are good, I do wish it would go more upright but thats a minor thing. We flew Qantas over 50 times domestics and international with no issue until today, a domestic Brisbane to Sydney, and they actually stopped us once ON THE PLANE, bottlenecking everyone, googling the dimenstions... we were confused saying we had done this dozens and dozens of times and that it absolutely fits in ...Read more
the overhead but low and behold ... she did some calculations and said it was 122cm vs the allowed 115cm. Im pretty gutted as we only fly Qantas and we would have bought the more expensive 115cm option (I wont mention the brand). I understand rules are rules but inconsistencies drive me bonkers, theres no good reason this shouldnt have been brought up at check in the last 50 times we flew in the past year!! Anyway just a word of warning to fellow Qantas flyers!Purchased for $399.00.

If you'd like to take the SKIP onboard as cabin luggage we strongly recommend that you check carry-on specifications with your airline carrier before you travel and to always place the SKIP in its complimentary cover bag. As all airlines are different, we recommend checking and also carrying the least amount of hand luggage as possible. If a flight is at capacity, they do have the right to refuse extra hand luggage - it can also depend on the staff on the flight as well which is maybe why you had luck on most of the flights. Thank you for your feedback and helping other customers decide if Redsbaby is the right fit for their family. RB Team xxSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Such a great travel pram / stroller
We purchased the Redsbaby Skip for travel, and we have the Redsbaby Jive2 (which we love). I must admit I was slightly sceptical about travel prams that fold up really small - I thought they would be flimsy and not have any useful features like their bigger sisters. I was wrong about the Redsbaby Skip. It is amazing. It is much smaller than the Jive2, but it does almost as much. Its not difficult to fold and unfold, it is sturdy enough to get around and because its much smaller, it is so easy to manoeuvre!!! We use it now for weekends away and sometimes even just when we want extra room in the boot. Highly recommended.
Purchased in August 2021 for $320.00.

Works great for footpaths
generally compact and easy to use, the only issue is folding it up, one of the latches doesnt operate easily, and once folded the handlebar doesnt stay in position and easily pops open again which is annoying.

A fantastic pram!
This is a great pram! Its perfect for travel, small and fits in the car great, easy to use! I wish the basket was a bit bigger and it had a water proof roof and went down flat. But in saying that, we have stopped using our other redsbaby and use this because its more convenient. Great pram

Great stroller. So easy to use.
Love this stroller. It's lightweight and so easy to push around. It folds up to a small cube so takes up hardly any boot space. Also means it's great for plane travel. Bub seems very comfy and the back lies almost flat so happily sleeps in it when out and about. I use this more than my Bounce now that bub is a bit older. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

I was sceptical at first but once I received my skip it was the best choice Ive made, we have 3 small children under 5 and already owning the redsbaby jive this was a nice edition for our travelling needs. Would definitely recommend this product for anyone needing a small compact stroller.

Life simplified
We got the skip as an easy solution for quick trips. It took a while to work the fold but now I can flick it open one handed! Its so light but had a sturdy feel and featherlight steer which others dont.
Our 3 year fits fine. Shes not uncomfortable at all but at an age where she wants the security of a pram but wants to walk too. So Skip is perfect! I love my Jive but Skip makes it easier for the days we need a pram but not the whole shebang!
Basket is fine. Some people want bigger but Ive found the bigger the basket the more you carry.

Excellent pram for traveling!
The Skip is a really great lightweight travel pram, it is very smooth to push and it folds up and down extremely easily! I took it overseas for a trip and it was absolutely perfect. I also love the shoulder strap, it is super convenient for hopping on and off public transport.

Amazing pram to push single-handedly
I love this pram for so many reasons but a few things could be better to give it 5 stars. The pram is really light, compact and after some practise really easy to put in the car. The best feature by far though is how easy it is to push. It glides so effortlessly single-handedly and it has a great turning circle. It lays almost flat which is what I was looking for and the extension cover which zips to the hood to block UV and light is awesome. The basket is surprisingly spacious. The brake works well but is a little tricky to release when bub ...Read more
is laying flat. It doesn't have a pocket for phone/keys but I use the extra extension on the hood ( which is zipped closed if not in use ) as an extra pocket. The straps and buckle are awesome and you don't have to attach all 4 straps if you don't need to. The seat would be better off if it sat more upright. The buckle at the back to lay the seat flat is meant to be easy to use but I find it sticks and I often need both hands to put it all the way up or down. The material does allow you to look through in certain light but it really does need a peep window. I frequently can't tell if bub is asleep or not without looking under the hood. But the hood does give awesome coverage! On uneven ground it goes quite well given it's not designed for this but you will get stuck in sand.. no surprises there! Also my toddler will often sit in front of my bub if he wants a ride at the shops. It's not designed for this but works well if his brother doesn't kick him off! It also can fit in a trolley plus shopping if you need it for part of your outing but then also have some shopping to do. I would recommend for an every day lightweight run around pram!Purchased in April 2021 for $399.00.

Love! Love! Love!
We bought this to go to NZ with. It was compact and light to carry. The bag that comes with it was great to store it in on flights. It fit in Qantas and Emirates overhear lockers. It lays down fairly flat and the canopy is large. It sits up well, our toddler didnt have a problem !, you can buy other straps to make it sit up straighter if you wish. We love it.

Great pram, but one small issue
This pram really is a wonderfully constructed piece - portable, lightweight & compact. My only concern is the fact that the pram does not lock when folded up. When travelling around without the travel bag, it makes for a difficult item to hold when it has a tendency to open back up. This is particularly frustrating when travelling - especially when passing the pram between taxi drivers, concierge etc.

Brilliant travel pram, we now use it everyday!
This pram is so handy, we bought it for an overseas trip but now use it on the daily. It slides into the foot well of our car, at our babies car seat so is really convenient popping it in and out of the car. It whizzes around the shops and people are always stopping to ask which pram it is as its so easy to handle. It works well for both of our boys (3y and 6m, as we can lay it flat or sitting up depending on who is in it) I cant recommend it highly enough!

The perfect travel pram exists!
Lightweight, extendable canopy and ability to fully lie flat were some of the features that drew us to the Skip. We travel a bit both domestically and internationally. And while we can't get the Skip on the plane as hand luggage (although we feel this isn't something we needed) the Skip has exceeded out expectations. The harness is easy to clip in and get off, really easy to adjust and there is plenty of room under the pram. My only gripe is that it takes a bit of practice to fold down, but once you've got the hang of it it's fine. Highly recommend!

Light and practical
I used a Jive for the first 18 months with my son and never took it travelling as I found it too big. We bought the Skip as a second pram and haven't taken it for much travel but I now prefer it for everyday use. It's compact and easy to keep in the car but also sturdy enough for a toddler. I love that when it lies flat it doesn't take the hood down with it (like the Jive does) as it makes for a much better 'sleeping room'.

Questions & Answers
Simon K.asked
I'm worried that my son who's 14 months and 80cm will be too tall for the SKIP or will outgrow it quickly. Any ideas?
3 answers
It may be best to try out the SKIP at one of their product demos to see how your son fits into it. The seat dimensions are on the website but my son, who is 12 months & 76cm, still fits in it fine.
Thank you travelingmum you are right about the Redsbaby website. All the information about their prams and strollers is readily available and there are many more helpful reviews. I personally found it to be more generous in size compared to some of the other compact strollers brands I tested. I chose the Skip because of its price, quality and the fact that its an Australian brand. Its very reassuring to me that I can call Redsbaby and a team member will always answer any questions I have.
RedsbabyRedsbaby
Hi Simon, Thank you for getting in touch. The SKIP is suitable for toddlers up to 20kgs. We have had some of the Redsbaby team use with their 3-year-olds who fit comfortably in the seat for sitting and also naps on the go. The SKIP seat is an open design and reclines to a flat position so that you can use from newborn through to toddlerhood.
We host demo days around Australia so you can come and see the SKIP in person. I have added the link below for you :https://redsbaby.com.au/attend-a-demo-day/
Please let me know if you have any questions at all - we are more than happy to assist.

Hi Ange,
Thank you for your question. The 30-day trial only applies to our JIVE and METRO prams. The SKIP isn't included in this.

I’m wondering what is the age range or weight range this product is for?
1 answer
RedsbabyRedsbaby
Hi Haotian,
Both the JIVE and METRO are designed to hold up to 20kgs in the main seat. Most children will need or use a pram until they are around 3 years of age but prams are based on weight rather than age as all children develop differently.
I hope this helps
