Last year Cybex released a new gold collection of strollers called M-Line. To be clear, there are no strollers made out of gold. LOL.
This new line includes 6 models for any kind of lifestyle. Whether you want three wheels or four, all-terrain tires or light tires, reversible seat, or regular seat, Cybex got you covered! This collection is not only super stylish but is also VERY practical.
All models have features like a one-hand compact fold, flip-flop-friendly brake, large canopy, roomy seat, deep recline, adjustable handlebar, all-wheel suspension, swing-away bumper bar, automatic lock, and standing fold. So you really don’t have to compromise when choosing the right model for you.
At first, it could get confusing because all of them look very similar, but after you take a closer look, you will realize that the biggest difference is in the wheels. There are three models with all-terrain wheels and three models with lighter everyday wheels.
The other difference is in the reversible seat and the number of wheels. That’s it! All other features are the same.
I’ve also decided to post the main competition for each Cybex model in the same category.

Cybex Balios M vs Competition
All of the models below feature a reversible seat and roll on four all-terrain wheels. I was thinking about adding Uppababy Vista but decided not to because one of Vista’s main features is the ability to convert from a single mode into a double mode.
Also, after the 2015 changes it got much heavier and bulkier.

My Review | My review» | My review» | My review» |
Hi After reading all your reviews I am Trying to decide between the cybex bilious M and the Nuna mixx. For my now 1 month old. They look pretty similar other then the 1 hand fold and the 2 pound difference. I live in Brooklyn but often visit family in the suburbs and enjoy various kinds of terrain. Often take the subway And really want something I can easily use All the time from going to brunch to running errands. But has tires that can easily work for a park or slightly rougher roads . Which would be your recommendation ?
Hi Emily. It sounds like you need something compact with one-hand fold so I would get Balios M. They are both great stroller, but cybex is more convenient to run errands with because of the fold. The wheels on Cybex are also a little better.
Thanks for the quick response . One more question at what age or weight can you use the balios M without the bassinet option ?
Thank you so very much for these reviews; thanks to them, these are now my frontrunners! It has proven extremely difficult to find other reviews of these strollers, particularly from parents who have used them for an extended period of time and might have encountered difficulties / might be absolutely loving them after a longer period! Stores don’t seem to carry them (and I’m in a major U.S. city) and I’m pretty wary of committing to something without trying them. I really don’t want buyers remorse after the many many hours I’ve put into researching this stuff! My priorities are lightweight (I have some back problems), ability to do some all-terrain (uneven city sidewalks, some dirt paths/grass in park), ease of fold, and overall quality. And not breaking the bank! I’m thinking the Eternis M3 is my best option. Followed by Iris (reversible seat sounds like a great option, but FTM so not sure how important this is!), and Agis M3. I see that one of the strollers you compared the Eternis M3 to was the City Mini GT, which was previously on our list, but knocked off because of people’s and babygearlab’s experiences with it tipping backwards, even without stuff hanging from the handles. Do you think the Eternis M3 could have this problem? Also, at what point would you say infants could go in the normal seat without an infant insert? Any last words of wisdom before I take the plunge? Thanks again!
Hi im looking for a reversible stroller with a compact rear facing fold, flat recline, good range of infant car seat options. I love the armadillo flip xt bht I want a second choice just in case. Thanks
Hello, I love your stroller reviews and comparisons! However, I haven’t found what I was looking for: I had Bugaboo Cameleon 3 so I’m used to rather versatile strollers and now I am lioking for a reversible one-hand fold stroller with good suspension. Could you please advise me, which one is better: bjcm premier, cybex balios M or S? At the moment, we’re using bjcm GT which I will keep for snowy weather and rough terrain and babyzen Yoyo for shopping. My main focus is the reversible seat and a good footrest in both directions (I had bubaboo bee and it lacked a footrest when parent-facing).. I’m really confused with all the options avaikable on the market..,
Hi Anna. I would get Nuna Mixx2 or Cybex Balios S because both have a reversible seat, great suspension and FLAT recline (something Cameleon doesn’t have). I think flat recline is very important for a great nap.
Hi Katrin! Can’t realize the difference between Balios s and Balios M ! Having my second baby on the way and used to have a chicco lite way but now I want something more comfortable…
