What do Ryanair class as a fully collapsible pushchair?

We are travelling with our 9 month old with Ryanair in a few days and knowing what they can be like about charging for everything I wanted to check what they class as a fully collapsible pushchair but I can't get through to speak to them as their phone lines a constantly busy. The pushchair we are taking collapses flat but isn't one that collapses 'umbrella style'. Has anyone else taken a similar pushchair when flying with Ryanair?
The online guidance just states one fully collapsible pushchair is free when travelling with an infant.

Well. In my experience, flying from stanstead, I have taken a stroller and a larger fold in half (fat but still quite big) kinda buggy and both have been fine. They had a label pout on them when I checked the bags in but no one checked it as such. You the keep your buggy with you until you get on the plane where you fold it up and leave it by the stairs on the run way or as you go into the tunnell thing. I would say as long as it folds at all, it wil be fine xx

Also, you are only entitled to take a free buggy if the child is under 2. We took our 2 year old to Spain last year (had to pay for her seat) and had to pay something like £30 to take the buggy EACH WAY! Luckily we have family in Spain, so left it there for next time

I would guess it means not one which takes a car seat/carrycot which in itself won't fold? Just using the seat part attached.

I flew with them a few weeks ago and there was everything from umbrella folding buggies to huge stokke going in the hold so you should be ok.

Generally it's one that folds in one piece to gate, but any can be checked in with luggage

I'm sure i've taken a pushchair for dd2 when she was over two at no extra cost on ryanair.
