Quick answer: The Mima Xari Max is a full-size everyday stroller for regular walks, city routines, and longer outings. It combines a reversible seat, adjustable handlebar, extendable UV 50+ canopy, and two covered baskets.

At 13.3 kg, Xari Max prioritizes seating space, storage, and a composed everyday ride. For a newborn, use the dedicated carrycot, or attach the Mima Go Beyond with the car seat adapters, sold separately. The regular stroller seat is designed for children 6 months and older.

Quick Mima Xari Max specifications

The Mima Xari Max features that matter every day

Reversible seat orientation

The seat can face the parent for closer interaction or face the world as the child grows.

Three recline positions

The regular seat moves through upright, resting, and most-reclined positions. It is designed for children 6 months and older.

Adjustable handlebar and protective canopy

The four-position handlebar helps caregivers find a comfortable pushing height. The extendable UV 50+ canopy adds shade, ventilation, and a peek-a-boo window.

Five-point harness and wipeable leatherette

The five-point harness with magnetic buckle makes fastening more direct. Adjust the straps for the child every time and confirm the buckle is fully engaged before moving.

The sculptural leatherette shell is designed for straightforward daily care. Use a soft damp cloth and avoid abrasive tools or solvent-based cleaners.

Large wheels and suspension for everyday routes

The 18 cm (7 in) front wheels can swivel or lock, while the 28 cm (11 in) rear wheels and suspension support regular sidewalks / pavements and city routes. Xari Max is not designed for running or skating.

Two covered baskets

The front and rear baskets keep essentials separated and covered. Each basket holds up to 3 kg. Keep heavy bags off the handlebar so the stroller remains stable.

How does the Mima Xari Max fold?

Xari Max uses a full-size, two-hand fold. Remove your child first and keep them clear. The stroller seat may stay attached only when it is upright and world-facing. Remove any carrycot or infant car seat before folding, and secure the folding lock before lifting.

A practical fold check before buying

1. Measure the opening: Check the narrowest part of the boot / trunk, doorway, or storage area.
2. Choose your regular configuration: Decide whether the seat or wheels will usually stay attached.
3. Leave working space: Allow room for the carrycot, groceries, or luggage stored beside the stroller.
4. Test the lifting weight: Confirm that the person loading it most often is comfortable handling 13.3 kg.

How do you use the Mima Xari Max with a newborn?

The Mima Xari Max can be used from birth in two approved configurations. Unlike the Mima Creo, Xari Max does not have an approved newborn reclined-seat configuration. Its regular seat is for children 6 months and older.

The stroller supports two clear newborn paths.

1. Use the separate Xari Max carrycot for a dedicated flat newborn setup.
2. Attach the Mima Go Beyond with the car seat adapters, sold separately for transitions between the car and stroller.

The carrycot and infant car seats are sold separately. Confirm that your exact car-seat model is compatible, then follow the instructions supplied with the stroller and the selected newborn product.

Dedicated Xari Max carrycot

The Xari Max carrycot creates a flat from-birth configuration and attaches directly to the chassis. The linked carrycot manual specifies 0 to 6 months, a maximum of 9 kg, and a maximum child height of 63 cm (25 in). Stop using it sooner if your baby can sit unaided, roll over, or push up on hands and knees. Follow whichever supplied limit is reached first. Do not use it for unsupervised sleeping.

The carrycot is sold separately unless the exact product is clearly named as a stroller and carrycot bundle. Remove it before folding the chassis and include its size when planning boot / trunk or home storage.

Infant car seats that fit Xari Max

The Xari Max adapters fit the Go Beyond. Adapters and the car seat are sold separately.

Mima Xari Max buying checklist

• Everyday format: You want a full-size primary stroller rather than a lightweight travel model.
• Lifting: The 13.3 kg stroller weight works for the person who will load it most often.
• Storage fit: The chosen folded configuration fits through the narrowest opening and inside the usable cargo area.
• Seat age: The regular seat will be used from 6 months onward.
• Newborn plan: You have selected the carrycot, the Mima Go Beyond.
• Package contents: You have checked the exact product listing before ordering duplicate accessories.

Final assessment

Choose Mima Xari Max when reversible seating, full-size comfort, substantial wheels, separated covered storage, and distinctive design match your daily routine. Choose a lighter travel stroller when frequent carrying and compact transport matter more than these full-size features.
