Ickle Bubba Altima 9 Piece Pram Review: Is It Worth £379?

We review the Ickle Bubba Altima 9 Piece Pram, a £379 bundle with carrycot, seat unit, changing bag and more. Here's whether it's worth it.

The Ickle Bubba Altima 9 Piece Pram is a £379 travel system aimed at parents who want a full set-up in one purchase, without paying separately for a carrycot, changing bag and weather accessories.

The bundle includes a pram chassis, carrycot, pushchair seat unit, carrycot apron, footmuff, all-seasons seat liner, rain cover, cup holder, and a changing rucksack with mat. The seat unit is suitable from birth up to approximately 22kg, or around four years old, and offers three recline positions and two leg rest positions.

One-handed fold, seat included

One of the Altima’s standout features is its one-handed fold. The pushchair folds down with the seat still attached, in either parent-facing or world-facing position, which should appeal to parents managing a fold with a baby or bags in hand.

The hoods extend with mesh panels for breathability and include pop-out sun visors, along with a viewing window so parents can check on their baby without unzipping anything. The chassis has a height-adjustable telescopic handle, a gate-opening bumper bar, self-locking front wheels, and a large shopping basket. All wheels are removable for cleaning or storage.

Comfort across the seasons

The all-seasons seat liner is reversible, with breathable mesh for warmer months and a fleece side for winter. The carrycot comes with a plush mattress and a quilted apron that includes a privacy panel, plus memory buttons for quick removal.

What’s in the changing bag

The included rucksack is finished in soft-touch leatherette with gunmetal trims, and comes with a changing mat. It has insulated bottle holders, a wet-wipe pouch, and hidden storage pockets.

Verdict

At £379 for nine pieces including a carrycot, changing bag and weather protection, the Altima bundles together items that are often bought separately, which should work out cheaper than piecing together the same kit individually. Combined with the 4-year warranty, it’s a pram worth considering for parents wanting a complete set-up from one purchase.
