Cybex Coya vs Joolz Aer+
Both are travel pushchairs, and the Aer+ is the lighter of the two by 1.3kg. The Aer+ is no longer made (the Joolz Aer2 replaced it), so you would be buying it used.
The verdict
Choose the Coya if you want
On paper it doesn't beat the Aer+ on anything we measure, so it comes down to how it feels to push, and price.
