General Review

I love this stroller and prefer it to the Bugaboo Chameleon which I also own. I never liked three-wheelers but now I own/have owned Quinny Buzz, Quinny Zapp and Quinny Speedi and love them all.
I purchased this stroller second hand and it has a few flaws that seem to be more related to wear and tear than anything else.
It is good to steer and I like the recline in the bucket steer. Unfold is super dooper easy but I don't have the strength in my fingers to fold it down for some reason- need to press in and pull forward this button thingy and I always get DH to do it for me- probably I would get it if I absolutely have to.
This pram is not 'tippy' like the Zapp and seems quite stable.
The basket and Buzz Box give me a good amount of storage. Harness is hard to adjust though. Love that it takes the Maxi Cosi too.

Pros

Gorgeous pram!
Stable.
Easy to push and turn.
Can fold with seat on.
Semi-Automatic unfold.
Good brake system.
Enough storage space.

Cons

Isn't tiny folded, a bit smaller than the Bugaboo but wouldn't fit in some cars.
Canopy isn't fantastic, provides limited coverage.
Dreami bassinet is huge and heavy- but comfy!

I have the 2006 Buzz model. With the exception of it not staying closed when picking up/transporting, I thought this stroller was nearly perfect, until...this winter - my daughter is almost 2 and weighs 25 lbs., when bundled up in her winter coat, the straps on the stroller are barely long enough to buckle! I am VERY disappointed as our winters are long and she will be in a coat for the better part of the year. This stroller is SUPPOSED to fit a 40 lb child or up to 4 yrs old!!!! When I called Dorel, they were useless and didn't have anything to give me that was bigger - so basically this stroller won't last until the fall!

Pros

-compact
-comfortable
-rear/forward facing
-can be used with the dreamy bassinet for infant
-lightweight


Cons

-not much storage
-straps not big enough for a winter coat when child is 2 or heavy-set
-hydrolic closure swings open ofen when picked up
-front tire is not inflatable

we have an eight month old and I have used the buzz from birth.we bought all the accessories including shopping basket, umbrella and cosy toes. We have used it on the beach, in the country, on the train, in the city and have never had a problem with it.
I use it every day and so far have not had to pump up the wheels once.

Pros

Very easy to steer
Very easy to open
Baby can face you which is a definate bonus
Very adaptble with all the accessories

Cons

All in one raincover

So Nearlly Perfect!

General Review

A great travel system, we use the frame with the Dreami Carry Cot, Pushchair and Maxi Cosi car seat. The latter makes shopping trips quick and stress free, we have the seat base in the car too for quick swap-outs without having to wake the baby! A boon if it's raining too. If only Quinny had designed it with (or as an option) an inflatable front wheel. Off road it's a real struggle and as previously mentioned, once the front wheel's got dirty it gains a mind of its own, especially on smooth surfaces like supermarket floors.

Pros

Great Design
Compact
Flexible system
Easy to use


Cons

That damned front wheel!!
Not very solid feeling (but hasn't let us down yet)
Dorel customer service isn't great - no response regarding the front wheel problem or whether spare parts are available.

LOOKS NICE , BUT HAD LOADS OF PROBLEMS

Reviewed by: natalie from london, Jan 04, 2007

General Review

The pram looks nice but just isnt suitable for everyday use as in ie bus`es getting on front doors because it doesnt push through , shopping no where to put your stuff limited space . no good for average spaced car boot , not good for pushing as front wheel keeps getting stuck , very very high mantance pram as you have to check the screws as one of mine fell out of frame / tyre pressure to check at least 3 times a week & now my frame has broken at the bottom & my child is only 8months old & my rain cover has ripped in two places . at seams & at the bottom .

Pros

Pretty to look at
nice & cosy with cosy toes

Cons

basicly load of crap & not worth £465.00 better off with just a normal pushchair frm birth .
