Posted by Claire on 9th Feb 2021

The BABYZEN YOYO is undoubtedly one of our best-selling compact strollers and every day, parents all over the world use to YOYO to get their little ones from A to B. Whether you’re off on your afternoon walk or hopping on a plane to take on a new adventure, the BABYZEN YOYO has got you covered!

Today we wanted to talk you through some of our most frequently asked questions about the YOYO and if you’re thinking about buying, hopefully this FAQ will answer any questions you may have!

BABYZEN YOYO from birth.

The BABYZEN YOYO is suitable from birth so you can be used right from day 1 with the option of a newborn bassinet or a 0+ fabrics pack but one of our most asked questions is…

What is the difference between the bassinet and 0+?

The YOYO bassinet is the newer option of the two and offers what you may recognise as a traditional carrycot whereas the 0+ is a fabric pack that attaches to your seat turning it into a parent facing position. The main difference between the two is that the YOYO can be folded with the 0+ attached so if you have less space at home or you’re hopping on and off public transport, this may be the better option for you.

The bassinet is compatible with all YOYO+ and YOYO² models.

BABYZEN YOYO rain cover

The weather is always a concern when were out walking, especially in England where its usually raining, and we often are asked.

Does the YOYO come with a rain cover?

As the BABYZEN YOYO is a product that is sold worldwide (in a lot of countries that don’t often have rain!!) the YOYO doesn’t have a rain cover included but they are available as a separate accessory for both the 6+ and newborn options. They even come in a handy storage case!

The rain cover is also washable at 30 degrees or under so you can keep it squeaky clean!
