4.0 out of 5 stars Highly reccomended for a minimalist!, July 19, 2005

This review is from: Combi Savvy EX Stroller - Claret (Baby Product)

I purchased this stroller after having a horrible expirience with another one. I chose this over the other similar model because it had a few upgrades that I found important

PROS
- Removable belly bar w/ two cupholders for baby
- PADDED five-point harness
- large canopy with peek-in-windows and storage
- taller handle(than the one found on my other stroller) for my husband (6"0)
- large and sturdy wheels
- storage compartment for keys, sunglasses, cell phone etc.
- two water bottle holders (NOT for anything without a "leak proof" lid)
- the stroller folds easily
- once the stroller is folded theres a carry strap to lug it around the airport
- its small and easy to fit into a trunk with 1,000 other things crammed inside of it
- we purchased ours from BRU and it was easy to assemble (snap on wheels, canopy, and belly bar).

CONS
- Baskets a bit on the small size, no shopping can fit
- The seat takes two hands to recline it, and I have to stop what I am doing
- I really wish it came with a boot, or attachments so it could be a universal stroller with infant carriers

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEW, AND OLD MODELS
- This model has a seat that sits fully upright (this is a PRO for the new model!)
- This model is a bit sturdier (PRO)
- The new one is also a bit more expensive (CON)
- You can have speaker bonnets in this model (I am not sure about the other though) (PRO)
- There isnt a color selection with this model (CON)
- The handles are much better than the other ones, but are still a tad short (my husband slouches and complains within 45 minutes of pushing) (CON)

I am not too sure about Combi's service with THIS model, but after a miss-hap with another one of thier products, they were very polite and sent me the replacement part (as well as a few other things, like the last reviewer mentioned) and the shipping was free and fast delivery. I really reccomend this stroller, thus earning 4.5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing stroller, June 4, 2005

I have 2 kids, 2 1/2 year old daughter, and my almost one-year old son. I wanted a nice, compact, lightweight stroller after struggling with a huge travel system the last time!

I didnt purchase the "matching carrier" I bought a snugride, and just didnt use it with the stroller. This was easy to do since it reqlines all the way and comes with (atleast ours did) a boot to keep baby in a nice bassinet! The seat is very comfortable, extremely well padded, yet its not too plush so that it makes baby swet... the perfect combination! It has a very secure, very impressive 5 point harness. Some strollers try to get away with the flimsy 5 points that are like helmet straps, or worse... they go for the lapbelt! For us it was important that our baby was safe and secure. The baby has a nicely sized "tray", it really only has two cupholders, one for a bottle, and the other for a sippy for my daughter, or for some cheerios in a snack-cup... It actually snaps open, and closed which is easy for me to do, but my son hasnt yet figured it out. The canopy is large and much better than the Aria (the other stroller we were looking at!) We didnt want to have to also purchase a jogger, (since we have a hand-me-down twin jogger) just to go to the park or for visiting relatives in the city! It COMPLETELY covers his head, and theres a nice peek in window with a cover. This canopy is very durable and I have never had problems with it. Theres no real "parents tray", but little pouches. Theres two for a bottle with a cap, like a soda bottle, a water bottle, or even your own cup with a lid to place coffee in... The pouch can store keys, a pacifire, my and my husbands phones, my wallet, and even some little toys that the kids got out of the eggmachine! I have heard that most strollers arent going to be putting actual cupholders on anymore due to the risk of mommies and daddies dropping their hot beverages on baby, this is, in my opinion, a better solution anyway. The basket is small, but I can fit kids jackets, my small purse, my small baby bag (diapers, wipes, powders, extra bottles, and a few pacifires) so if you love to carry everything, dont expect to get much use outta this one! If we are going out shopping, I make sure to just cram my purse things into the baby bag and the small compartment, I either make the kids wear long-sleeves, or a jacket to tie around their waists, and I can fit some shopping in the basket, and over the handles without tipping the stroller. It rides smoothly for a 14 pounder, and I dont find it bumpy or rickity at all... the only time its bumpy is if I go over grass or a curb... not the strollers fault at all. Its easy to turn and I bet it could turn on a dime! I have brought this thing to my MIL's apartment in Manhatten (where I am stopped atleast twice and am asked where I got it), I have brought it to the zoo, aquariums, museums, parks, malls, airport, CHRISTMAS SHOPPING, neighborhood walks and even to the beach and the park. This stroller is easy to fold, we manage one handed, and theres a convinient carry strap for when you are at the airport, or about to go into a zoo exhibit which doesnt allow strollers, no need to just drop it off and rush the kids through the place to make sure its "okay", just haul it over your shoulder. I too found it easier to fold before going outside on yucky days to ensure that the stroller doesnt get gross as well.

I found this stroller easy to use, and easy to push. My son LOVES it, and thankgod my daughters independent or else I would have to be using a twin stroller! Its durable, lightweight, easy to use, and a great price... you cant get anything better than that!

I really love this stroller and I did my homework before I bought it. It was between this one and the lightweight Peg Perego which was the same price. The only thing missing is a parent tray (well really a cup holder) but now that I see how it folds up, I see why it would be hard to put a parent tray in unless it popped off before you folded it up. It steers really easily and I love the zip pouches that I can put my keys. Plus, I prefer the fact that there is a button release for the seat reclining positions instead of a strap that you tighten up. I also thing that the sun shade is alot better than the other brand which has such a small shade that it is almost useless. I also love the shoulder stap. At first I didn't think I would, since it seemed in the way but this strap makes it so easy to carry. Has nice padded seating and comfortable straps for my little tyke!!

I think it is a great purchase to replace my worn out travel system stroller that has served it's purpose but is very worn out. I love that it is so compact and takes up such a small space. Worth the money for a great ride.
