Cybex Priam vs Cybex Mios
Folded, the Cybex Mios makes a 5.49 cu ft box to the Cybex Priam's 7.66 cu ft. Neither fits a 22 x 14 x 9 in carry-on sizer: the Cybex Priam misses by 15.4 in and the Cybex Mios by 8.1 in. The Cybex Mios is 7 lb lighter by its maker's figure (21.4 lb to 28.4 lb). The Cybex Priam is newborn-ready as sold; the Cybex Mios needs a bassinet, insert or infant car seat for the first months.
