Hauck Colibri Stroller Review: 5 Reasons Why This is the Baby Stroller You Need

Time to read 4 min

Finding the perfect stroller felt like an endless quest with the endless options in Singapore. I needed something lightweight, easy to fold, usable from birth, AFFORDABLE, and - let’s be real - something that didn’t take up half the living room when not in use! Enter the Hauck Colibri stroller, my unexpected hero.


I didn’t expect to love a stroller this much, but here we are. Whether we’re navigating shopping aisles in NTUC, or simply heading out for a stroll at Botanic Gardens, this stroller has made life so much easier (and more stylish, too!). So, if you’re in the market for a sleek, user-friendly ride for your little adventurer, let me tell you why the Hauck Colibri might just be the stroller of your dreams.

1) The Hauck Colibri is lightweight and compact at only 6.9kg

Let me just say, the Colibri at only 6.9kg is light enough for me to carry with one hand - yes, one hand - while wrangling a diaper bag and a toddler in the other! Folding it up is a breeze too, and it actually fits in the trunk without playing Tetris.


Whether I’m hopping on public transport or throwing it in the back of the car for a weekend trip, the Colibri’s compact size makes it ridiculously easy to take anywhere. Trust me, your arms will thank you!


Although not cabin-sized (cabin size strollers tend to be incredibly tiny with limited functionality), the Colibri can easily be gate-checked before you board the plane, and is compact enough to bring around on holidays.

2) The Hauck Colibri can comfortably be used from birth to toddlerhood

One of the things I absolutely love about the Hauck Colibri is that it grows with your little one. From day one, it’s ready for action with a fully reclining seat that's perfect for newborns. The seat unit is detachable from the stroller frame, which allowed me to use it in the parent-facing position with baby facing me. I absolutely love that the stroller is reversible because being able to see my baby’s sweet face during a stroll makes every outing feel a little more special and connected!


Fast forward to toddlerhood, and the Colibri is still going strong! Unlike ‘cheapo’ strollers with thin seat fabrics that use a ‘drawstring’ type of mechanism to recline the stroller, the Colibri seat uses a solid shell frame which provides good support as baby grows bigger.

The swivel wheels are a dream—whether I’m dodging crowds at the grocery store or navigating narrow sidewalks, this thing turns on a dime! Even on bumpy paths, the suspension does its magic, giving my little one a smooth, comfy ride while I steer effortlessly with just one hand.

Every feature is practical, but it also looks really good - like, the kind of stroller that gets you compliments at the park.
