Best travel stroller ever!

I got this stroller at a fantastic sale price after noticing how stylish and masculine they looked. I ended up with the lime green colour. My daughter who is using it is 22 months and a pram escaper.This stroller is light and easy to fold. It is a dream to steer on shopping centre floors and doesn't do that badly on pavement/cement. Not an off road pram though, the wheels are small and hard plastic.
Seat is a tad small with the sunshade/hood on, DD touches the top of it. The footwell could be a little deeper, and the seat doesn't recline- even a slightly reclined seat would be a bonus.
The brake is fantastic and easy to apply. The handles, while not adjustable are a fantastic height for me (I'm 5'11).
The harness is good but the buckles can be hard to do up with a screaming child.
Folds so flat, it could fit anywhere. The bag it comes with is super nice as well. No shopping basket, you can buy little ones that don't distrupt the fold though. Limited range of accessories, good choice of colours though.
Does tend to tip over, do not hang anything on the back and always make sure your child is strapped in. DD tend to throw herself backwards and that has caused this to tip a few times.
Pros
-Fashionable and funky-Good colours
-Super easy fold
-Compact
-Good handles for tall people
-Turns easily
-Good brakes that are easy to apply
Cons
-No recline, very upright seat-Not fantastic for taller kids
-Tend to tip over
-No basket
-Small footwell
-Harness needs to be threaded together to work and can be hard when your child is throwing a tantrum
-No good for off road
It's pretty but uncomfortable for baby & unstable

We bought this a month ago because we needed a compact stroller for our trip in the US. Yes it is very compact and light however it's very uncomfortable for our 9 month old baby to sleep in. we went to disneyland and we ended up swapping stroller with our friends one. My friend's daughter is 18 months old. we were resting on the resting station, we were sitting on the bench and the babies are in their stollers. to our horror, the quinny zapp stroller tipped backwards with my friends daughter in it. Luckily she was ok! we were so shocked that this stroller could tip backwards. a stable stroller should not be able to tip. the road was not bumpy , it was flat and we did not hang any bags on the stroller. So Please think twice before buying this stroller. it's very pretty but it's unstable and inconvenient.Pros

LOVE IT TO DEATH! Buy one now

The Quinny Zapp is great ! We were keen to get the large pram out of the boot and the Zapp fits into the footwell of where little Noah sits. He loves it too !! The boot is free. It took me a couple of goes to put it up and down but that's standard and now goes up and down like a breeze. We are very happy with the Zapp and highly recommend it for those that travel and need more boot space. The Zapp is also so light when you push it, it moves with ease and you don't feel like your hauling something around.Pros
Easy to fold up and downFits in a small space
Easy to push around
Cons
No bag space but I put my handbag around the handles.Really nifty stroller, smooth ride

I love this as a compact stroller. Its so comfortable for my children who range from 1-7 years. Folds compact, and love the carry bag. Colours and style make the usual boring stroller, much more groovy. Very happy with this strollerPros
CompactSmooth ride
Small turning circle, easy to steer
Many colours, stylish design
Cons
Shopping basket not included (can can be brought)Its an upright stroller, so not suitable if you need a recline function.
Hated it and so did my daughter!

Bought this for a weeks holiday as it folded so compactly and let us carry a large amount of luggage. However it was terrible. My daughter (16mths) could not sleep in it and constantly looked uncomfortable. She cried virtually the whole time. I hated the fact that there was no shopping basket and absolutely anything on the handles caused a weight imbalance and the buggy would tip. It is not at all padded, although the footmuff is very cosy (but obvioulsy no good in the summer!) I sold it as soon as we got home and bought a Peg Perego Pliko lite (truly fanstastic in comparison!!) Might be ok for an older child for a trip abroad just to sit in when they get tired but for a little one, please think twice!Pros
Folds very very compactlyCons
No reclineNo basket
Tips easily if you hang anything from the handle bar
No suspension
Bumpy ride for baby
Only suitable from about 12mths

Really trendy little buggy. I am very pleased with it and it lives in the boot of our car. You can't beat it in shops and indoor areas. It's very easy to manoeuvre and fits in a neat little package in the boot. However, it's not as good for long outdoor walks as it only has one position and just is no good on uneven ground. But I suppose it's not designed for thatPros
Super lightVery small
Trendy looks
Very good steering
Cons
No shopping basketCan't fold with one hand
Only one position
