Now taking Pre-Orders on the Silver Cross Cove 2

The Cove 2 is really exciting!  Finding a stroller that balances comfort, performance, and portability can be challenging. Many full-size strollers deliver a smooth ride but take up significant trunk space and can feel cumbersome in everyday use. The Silver Cross Cove 2 aims to solve that problem.

As part of Silver Cross's newest stroller lineup, the Cove 2 combines all-terrain capability with a surprisingly compact footprint. It offers the larger wheels, suspension, and durability parents expect from a premium stroller while remaining lightweight enough for daily errands, travel between destinations, and family adventures.

With a newborn-ready design, flexible seating options, and a fold that is smaller than many competitors, the Cove 2 is built for families who want one stroller to handle nearly every stage of childhood.

Silver Cross Cove 2 At a Glance

Highlights

• Lightweight full-size design at 25.5 pounds
• Advanced RideTech suspension system
• Large all-terrain wheels
• One-hand self-standing fold

Designed for Everyday Adventures

The Cove 2 is intended for families who split their time between city sidewalks, parks, trails, and everyday errands. Rather than creating a stroller focused solely on urban environments, Silver Cross designed the Cove 2 to adapt to a wider variety of surfaces.

Large treaded wheels and responsive suspension help smooth out rough pavement, gravel pathways, grassy parks, and uneven sidewalks. The result is a stroller that feels equally comfortable during a quick coffee run or a longer weekend outing.

Compact Without Sacrificing Capability

One of the most impressive aspects of the Cove 2 is its folding system.

Many all-terrain strollers offer excellent performance but become difficult to store once folded. The Cove 2 takes a different approach with a compact, self-standing fold that requires minimal effort.

Even more convenient, the stroller can be folded with either the seat or optional bassinet attached. This eliminates extra steps when loading the stroller into a vehicle or storing it at home.

The integrated carry strap adds another layer of convenience for parents navigating stairs, public transportation, or busy parking lots.

Newborn-Ready From Day One

Not every stroller offers multiple newborn solutions right out of the box. The Cove 2 provides families with several ways to start strolling from birth.

Fully Flat Reclining Seat

The included stroller seat reclines completely flat, creating a comfortable and supportive position for newborns without requiring additional accessories.

Optional Folding Bassinet

Parents who prefer a traditional bassinet setup can add Silver Cross's folding bassinet. It provides a cozy environment for newborns and folds conveniently for transport and storage.

Infant Car Seat Compatibility

For families frequently moving between car and stroller, the Cove 2 also functions as a travel system when paired with compatible infant car seats using adapters.

This flexibility allows parents to choose the setup that best fits their lifestyle while keeping the stroller useful through multiple developmental stages.

Built to Grow With Your Child

As children become more curious about the world around them, the Cove 2 adapts accordingly.

The reversible seat allows babies to ride parent-facing during their early months before transitioning to a forward-facing position as they grow. Multiple recline settings, an adjustable footrest, and an expandable canopy help maintain comfort throughout the toddler years.

With a maximum weight capacity of 55 pounds, the stroller is designed to remain useful well beyond infancy.

All-Terrain Performance That Lives Up to the Name

Many strollers advertise all-terrain capability, but few perform confidently once the pavement ends.

The Cove 2 stands out thanks to its combination of oversized wheels and RideTech suspension. Together, they help absorb bumps and improve maneuverability on a variety of surfaces.

The stroller performs particularly well on:

• Uneven sidewalks
• Grass and park trails
• Gravel pathways
• Boardwalks
• Packed snow
• Slushy winter sidewalks

While it isn't intended as a jogging stroller, it offers enough capability for most everyday adventures families encounter.
