Bad points

Bad Points

  • Serious safety failure: During the kerb mounting test one of the frame tubes snapped on one side, making the stroller effectively unusable.
  • Minor safety failures: 1. The seat can be pulled away substantially from its normal seated position, meaning a harnessed child wriggle further than from the stroller than they should. 2. The wrist tether strap is elasticised and is too long.
  • Very minor safety failure: Warning labels are not properly displayed.
  • Not easy to adjust the harness straps.
  • Tyre pump not included.
  • Bulky when folded, and very heavy to carry.
  • Very awkward hand action to release the locking device to fold the stroller, and the front wheel has to be put in a particular position.
