BEware of this stroller, January 25, 2007
Reviewer: dadgrl from Phoenix AZ

Overall Grade   2.00/10  (2)


Pros: The red color
Cons: The straps, the basket, the canopy, the cupholder

I have never written a review but feel compelled to do so. I bought this on the advice of Baby Bargains and they seem to be pretty right on with everything else but this. This is the worst stroller ever --- Will be going out to buy another tomorrow. Bought this on ebay brand new and tried to use it and it is awful. There should not even be a basket cuz it is useless as well as the cupholder. The only thing it will hold is a bottle of water. The straps are impossible. I hope I can save someone out there money -- Will be sellling mine at a garage sale. I miss my snugride snap and go. It was awesome. Hope this helps.

Not all it's cracked up to be, April 20, 2006

Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Wobbly, too short, kinda chintzy

I bought this stroller on a few recommendations. In a word, yuck. First and foremost, I'm 5'8" and altough I may be tall for a woman, I'm not a giant. I can only use this stroller on really short mall trips because when they are over an hour long, my back starts to ache from stooping.

And speaking of the mall, where in the world am I supposed to put anything besides the baby's cup? I can't even get a book back there let alone purchases.

The straps are a pain because of the constant twisting and they just don't seem that sturdy.

The back wheels aren't free wheeling therefore taking tight corners are a pain.

I got this stroller specifically for the convenience of being able to close it fast to get on the train. By the time I get to the train, I'm ready for a nap.

This is my second stroller and maybe I was spoiled by the Peg Perego Venezia but I think even if this were my 1st stroller I would still be dissapointed.

I'm selling mine, any takers?

OK- Difficult to fold and small cargo areal, September 2, 2005
Reviewer: kimtchicago from Chicago, IL

Overall Grade   5.00/10  (5)


Pros: Lots of padding, peek-a-boo window
Cons: Requires 2 hands to fold

I chose this b/c it was lightweight and had a lot of padding. I hadn't used a stroller before, so I hadn't realized that wheel size is important if you're walking on rough sidewalks. With this Combi, I've hit a big crack or bump, and even at a walk my daughter has nearly flipped over a couple of times. The steering is great. I hate the fold- it requires 2 hands, and upon reflection, I should have gotten the Inglesina Zippy instead. I also think the storage mesh backet is woefully inadequate. This is a fine stroller for malls, but not for real city streets with bumpy sidewalks. I'll probablly keep this as a mall stroller and purchase a jogger for my outdoor long walks.

good compact stroller, June 10, 2005

Overall Grade   6.00/10  (6)


Pros: great fold, easy to carry, comfy seat cushion, really light
Cons: harness isn't tight,not good for tall people,small basket

I like this stroller for my above pros, but DH could never push DS around b/c the handle is too short for him (he's 6'0") and the stroller handle doesn't adjust. The harness on it's tightest was easily escapeable. The basket can hold a sweater and that's it. Having said that as a lightweight stroller we love it. When DS was first born I could carry a diaper bag on one shoulder the stroller on the other shoulder and him in his Graco Snugride and leave the house no problem. It was great.

High quality stroller, lightweight yet fully functional, June 10, 2005
Reviewer: kamal from Phoenix, AZ

Overall Grade   9.00/10  (9)


Pros: Lightweight, full recline seat, storage bag, maneuvrability
Cons: Need two hands to fold.

We have been using this stroller from the time our baby was 3weeks old. It was easy to use with the carseat or with the seat fully reclined. Now our daughter is 18months old and the seat is still plenty big for her to sit in comfortably, and I like the great maneuvrability this stroller offers. Not to mention the stylish looks of aluminum construction. This has been a good stroller for us and I'd recommend it anyday to friends. We love using it everywhere and practically have no need for an additional umbrella stroller as this is light enough and yet so much more comfy for the baby.

The only cons are the need for two hands to fold it down and that it may be slightly pricey -but IMO, well worth the slightly higher price than the bulky travel systems that everyone tires of lugging around so quickly.
