Silver Cross Wave
This is the Wave 3 (2024), the version that comes with the carrycot, main seat and tandem seat in one box, so it works as a single or a double straight away. It is a large, sturdy pram with a smooth ride and a big basket, but it is heavy and takes up a lot of boot space. It suits families planning a close age gap who want one pram for both children.

Questions
How much does the Silver Cross Wave weigh?
The Silver Cross Wave weighs 13.5kg (chassis and seat; carrycot 4.2kg).
How big is the Silver Cross Wave when folded?
Folded, the Silver Cross Wave measures 95 x 60 x 40cm, about 225 litres. That's roughly 5.1 times the size of a 55 x 40 x 20cm cabin bag.
Is the Silver Cross Wave suitable from birth?
Yes. It comes with a carrycot for a newborn, and the carrycot is approved for overnight sleep. The seat takes children up to 25kg.
Can you take the Silver Cross Wave on a plane?
Not as cabin baggage: its fold is bigger than most airline cabin-bag sizers. Most airlines will take it at the gate or in the hold instead.
Is the Silver Cross Wave still made?
No, the Silver Cross Wave has been discontinued. You can still buy it used, and it's still worth selling one.
