STROLLER COMPARISON

Silver Cross Clic vs CYBEX Libelle

Both are compact, similarly priced travel strollers with a 55 lb weight capacity - but they take opposite approaches to fold size and newborn readiness.

Overview

The Clic and Libelle are close in weight and both top out at 55 lb, but they solve different problems. The Clic is built to be usable from birth with a genuine lie-flat recline; the Libelle is built to fold as small as possible, at the cost of starting later.

Fold and portability

The Libelle folds to 12.6 × 7.8 × 18.9 in - dramatically smaller than the Clic's 21 × 18 × 9 in. If overhead-bin space is the top priority, this is the biggest single factor.

Comfort and ride

The Clic's recline goes all the way to full lie-flat, beyond the Libelle's near-flat recline. The Libelle answers with front-wheel suspension, which the Clic's listing doesn't confirm.

Newborn use

Full lie-flat recline is usable from birth per the manufacturer. The Libelle takes a different approach: Seat is for 6+ months. A compatible infant car seat is sold separately; this finder does not rank that configuration.

Price

The Clic costs around $399.99, about $50.04 more than the Libelle at around $349.95.

Which one should you buy?

Choose the Silver Cross Clic if you want genuine lie-flat use from birth in one stroller.

Choose the CYBEX Libelle if the smallest possible fold matters most and your child is already 6 months or older.
