For ChildrenStokke ® Xplory ®

Xplory: This pushchair is the ultimate system for parent and baby. The most refreshing aspect is its adjustability. Not just for the child but for the parent too:
Forward facing - so little eyes can see the wonders of the big wide world
Backward facing - great position for you to interact with your child
Up High - away from dirty ground and exhaust fumes and can act as an instant highchair. The diagonal frame makes it easy to bring the stroller close to the table so it is not obstructive.
Down low - adjust the height so they can join in the fun round a coffee table
Upright - When they are awake and alert
Lay Back - When it's nap time
Multi-adjustable handle - Comfortable for all parents, no matter what their height
Swing back wheels - will help you negotiate those stairs easily, and smoothly

Facing you

Solid Rubber Wheels: Never need to worry about getting a flat tire.

Babybag/Carrycot: Attach to the chassis to convert to a traditional style pram, with a very simple function to clip-on & clip-off. Balanced when removed for easy carrying.

Car Seat: Essential safety when travelling. Designed in partnership with Izi Sleep, to combine safety knowledge with Stokke's functionality. The car seat can be adjusted to lie flat or be more upright, and just like the babybag, is very easy to clip on and off the Xplory chassis.

Textiles: So many parents choose to have a second set of textiles, usually in a different colour. One for summer, one for winter, one for a boy, one for a girl, or to simply to freshen up the look with the latest fashions.

Parasol: As with all Xplory textiles, the parasol is UV protected - an absolute essential during the summer months. The bendy stem can adjust to block out the sun no matter where it is in the sky.

Summer Kit: Allows for added ventilation through the seat and gives extra protection from the sun.

Winter Kit: Warm and snug with real sheepskin trim and water resistant materials. The winter kit gives ultimate protection from even the most extreme winter conditions for the child, and with hand warmers that attatch to the handle your fingers can be as snug as your little ones.

Sheepskin: Add a bit of extra luxury, it's not a necessity ... but really adds to their comfort.

Rider: a little something for the older child, clip on the back of the stroller and away you go. And when you don't need it just fold it back up; it attaches magnetically and it's out of your way.

Pram Pack: We cannot recommend this enough if you intend on taking your Xplory or other stroller on an airplane. This travel bag has been designed in partnership with airline 'throwers' (a.k.a Baggage Handlers) to protect your Xplory. As a result the Pram Pack has been approved by airlines, so that in the unlikely event that your stroller gets damaged, you can instantly make a claim at the airport.

What is ISOFIX

ISO 13216 is the standard for fitting child safety seats in vehicles. Known as ISOFIX (which stands for "International Standards Organisation FIX") in the UK and Europe, it has been in use since the early 2000's and was designed as a "Plug-in" system for fitting child safety seats in cars quickly and simply. (The same system is known as LATCH in the United States).

The idea is very simple. All new cars are manufactured with inconspicuous attachment points in standard locations, whilst ISOFIX compatible child seats have latches on the back to lock onto the mounting points in the car with a simple push and click system.

Why was it developed?

ISOFIX car seats have been an important development in safety as many people find it difficult to fit child seats correctly. Surveys have shown that a large proportion of child seats are not fitted securely enough.

As only a properly fitted child seat can provide a child with the correct protection, the ISOFIX system helps to eliminate the chance of misfitting the seat, and provides a quick and easy way to correctly install a compatible seat by attaching it directly to the vehicles ISOFIX connection points.

What are the benefits?

Most child seats on the market are currently designed to be fitted by using a car's adult lap and diagonal seat belt. However, car seat shapes, seat belt lengths and their anchorage points can vary dramatically between different models of cars. These factors make it almost impossible to make a child car seat that fits all cars, and can sometimes make it tricky to fit a child car seat correctly.

ISOFIX was designed to solve all these problems and to improve the performance of child seats by rigidly attaching them to the car's structure.The ultimate aim is that any ISOFIX child car seat you buy will fit your car simply by plugging it into the locating points.

However, there are several versions of the ISOFIX system, you must check which is suitable for your vehicle.

The best way to know if your vehicle will accept an ISOFIX seat is to check your handbook or ask your local dealer. If this is not possible, you can tell by inspecting the car itself. ISOFIX anchorage points (where fitted) should be clearly labeled. You can also check along the crack between the back seat cushion and the back rest, and also on the boot floor behind the back seat.

All new cars introduced since early 2006 have been required by law to be fitted with 'Universal' ISOFIX anchorages for a minimum of two seating positions, however, many cars built before 2006 were fitted with the two-point 'Semi-universal' ISOFIX system.
