Oyster3 Stroller Honest Review

Table of Contents

Purchase Process

I was torn between the Orbit G5 and Oyster3 for my baby’s stroller and ultimately chose the Oyster3. Among stroller types—deluxe, hybrid, and portable—I initially considered a hybrid, but when I heard that a newborn’s head could shake too much, I decided on the heavier but more stable deluxe model.

I visited Yangsan Baby Plus in person and tested both products. The Oyster3 was much easier to fold and unfold, which was the deciding factor. Plus, they were running a promotion where I could purchase the Oyster Mini2 portable stroller together at a great price, so I didn’t hesitate and bought it right away. Both products together cost around 1.5 million won.

User Experience

What I Loved:

Very minimal shaking on the road. Even on bumpy surfaces, my baby sleeps comfortably.
Spacious storage basket—convenient for groceries and outings.
Clean and attractive design and color scheme.
The seat cushion is cozy and provides excellent stability when the baby is seated.

What Could Be Better:

It’s quite heavy, so it’s difficult for mom to lift alone. We always need dad’s help when loading and unloading from the car.

Satisfaction

The Oyster3 has excellent durability—our first child Royul used it, and now our second child Gayul is using it with no issues at all. The design is nice too, and overall, I’m very satisfied.

Recommended For: I highly recommend this to parents who prioritize newborn safety and stability above all!
