Rank #3 in Best Travel System Pushchair 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why 25 kg Means 22 kg
Maxi-Cosi Zelia Select Trio 3 in 1 Travel System
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Maxi-Cosi Zelia Select Trio is a 3-in-1 travel system at £319.99, third in our travel systems guide. In the box you get the Zelia Select pushchair seat, which the listing describes as suitable from birth to 4 years, an attachable i-Size car seat, a nursery bag and a rain cover. The seat converts between a pram body setup and a toddler seat, and it can be mounted parent-facing or world-facing. The car seat included is the CabrioFix S i-Size, which the listing puts at 3.6 kg and limits to babies up to 15 months (13 kg).
Here is the reason this one sits where it does. Across the ten systems in this guide, the headline weight and the spec-table weight usually disagree; the bullets promise one number and the specification field gives a smaller one. The Zelia Select is the exception. Its first bullet says 0-22 kg and its Maximum Weight Recommendation field says 22 kg. The same listing then shows a second, lower ceiling that the 0-22 kg headline hides: the car seat is capped at 13 kg and 15 months, so the 22 kg figure belongs to the pushchair seat alone, not to the whole system. The weight arithmetic also holds: an 11 kg item weight against a 7.3 kg frame and a 3.7 kg seat, which adds up. What the listing does not do is add the 6.8 kg basket to the 22 kg the way hauck's Runner 2 adds its 3 kg basket to 22 kg to reach 25 kg — if you did, this one would read 28.8 kg, and Maxi-Cosi never claims that.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“A complete set of baby pramThe was easy to assemble and light weightLove the material finishing and the shells were study and easy to manoeuvreBest purchase”
Verified purchase“Really pleased with this travel system overall. The grey colour looks smart and doesn't show dirt as badly as you'd expect. Folding it one handed takes a little practice but after a couple of days it becomes second nature. The pushchair feels solid and handles well without being too heavy to push around. Clicking the car seat in feels secure and you don't have to keep double checking it which gives you peace of mind. The bassinet is a great addition for a newborn as well. Only thing I'd say is it takes up a fair bit of boot space but that's the same with most travel systems. Would definitely recommend it!”

Questions people ask
Does the 22 kg limit cover the car seat as well?
No. The Maxi-Cosi Zelia Select listing gives the pushchair seat 0-4 years and 0-22 kg, while the included CabrioFix S i-Size car seat is for babies up to 15 months (13 kg). The two limits are separate.
Do the headline and the spec table agree on weight?
Yes. The first bullet says 0-22 kg and the Maximum Weight Recommendation field says 22 kg. There is no gap between the two, unlike several other travel systems in this guide.
Can I add the 6.8 kg basket capacity on top of the 22 kg?
The listing does not say that. It gives a 22 kg maximum weight recommendation and a 6.8 kg basket capacity as two separate figures, with no combined total anywhere in the listing.
How heavy is the Zelia Select Trio?
The listing states an 11 kg item weight, a 7.3 kg frame and a 3.7 kg stroller seat. Frame plus seat comes to 11 kg, which matches the item weight given.
Can it be folded with one hand?
The listing says the compact stroller can be (un)folded with only one hand, and that it has an adjustable handlebar and a swivel bumper bar. The folded size given is 86 cm x 43 cm x 65 cm.
Is the car seat and base included?
The CabrioFix S i-Size car seat is included. The listing states it installs with ISOFIX or a seatbelt, and that the FamilyFix 360 base is sold separately.
