My Babiie MB30
Notice updated on 9 June 2023
My Babiie has identified there have been a small number of MB30 pushchairs that have been sold with an incorrect part. This part is a small R clip that is used to fix the rear wheel to the axle.
The R clip that’s provided with your MB30 pushchair is already fitted to your axle. Customers remove these clips, install the wheel, and push the clip back into place. Unfortunately, a small batch of stock has been sent out with the wrong size R clip. This means that in certain circumstances, one of the rear wheels can detach in use.

This only affects product sold in Argos between 27 April 2023 and 30 May 2023 with a batch date of PO1098, PO1099 or PO1100. All other product remains unaffected.
What do I need to do?
If your My Babiie MB30 is one of the pushchairs produced with one of the three batch numbers / PO numbers listed above, please stop using it until you get your replacement clips which can be obtained by contacting My Babiie at info@mybabiie.com, upon receipt of the R clips, you will also receive information on how to remove and fit the R clips. Once the old R clips have been removed, these can be disposed of.
