Ocarro or Oyster 3?

First baby due in April and struggling to decide which pram/travel system to buy - think I have narrowed it down to these two but can’t choose between them! It needs to fit in a small boot, have sturdy wheels for dog walking and be pretty! Any advice very welcome :)

I am feeling the same. I think I’m. Leaning towards the Ocarro because we can get much cheaper second hand.
They look like the same Pram though don’t they

Yes they are very similar - that's why it's so hard to choose I think!

Are you buying new? If so I think I would go oyster 3?
Fractionally lighter
Slightly smaller fold
Rocking base on carrycot

I wasn't going to but family have just given me a nice donation towards it so I think I will now. Lighter is definitely good, but then I thought the wheels on the ocarro looked more chunky and it looks a bit more robust overall

Admittedly I dont know anything about the oyster but I love the ocarro. Has a one handed fold that works in parent or world facing positions. Fits in the boot of a ford fiesta. Very easy to put together. Has a large basket and a large hood that goes almost completely over. Good wheels and suspension so goes over bumps very easily. M&p were doing good offers on it in the sale.

We’ve gone with the Ocarro for the same reasons you mentioned. Seems to tick all the boxes.

We’ve gone for oyster 3. Also fir April

We NEARLY bought the occaro, like you say pretty functional, looks good, and gets a good review for being off road aswell (I’m sure it’s won awards/been named best off road pram of year?)- and mamas and papas had a really good Black Friday deal on it (or you get their personal shopping discount). Never seen or tried the oyster, we ended up going for an Uppa baby vista instead :-) also due April! (Days are going by sooo slowly just now!)

Thanks for replies all. Gone for the ocarro in navy. I know what you mean about the days dragging 😒 I'm impatient to meet my little chap 😍
