Combi Single Stroller Review
The stroller is affordable and comes with a traditional umbrella folding and an elegant aluminum frame. It has a cupholder for parents, large basket, and canopy pockets for all your essentials.
The stroller is prone to flexing when pushed, especially over rough surfaces. This can be a problem for parents on the go who wish to use their stroller regularly.
Here are a few examples of
Combi strollers are designed to make caring for children more enjoyable and less stressful. They are simple to use, light, and stylish. They also have a number of safety features like 3-point and 5-point harnesses as well as a reversible handle, a large canopy and a suspension that can be adjusted. Some come with a cupholder for parents and a large storage basket.
The Cosmo is the Combi's top stroller that can also fit car seats. It didn't fare very well in CR's traditional stroller and car seat compatibility tests, however. single stroller with bench seat offers, the Flare and the Shuttle, have gotten better reviews on the internet.
Its ability to fold is one of its most impressive features. It folds in just three steps and it doesn't need you to bend over. It is also simple to move and can be used on various terrains. It comes with a large umbrella that shields your child from harsh conditions such as wind and sun.
The frame is constructed of steel which makes it extremely robust. The wheels are also made of a special fabric that absorbs bumps and shocks from the road. The 53cm high seat keeps your child off the ground and prevents contact with dirt or allergens. The Combi stroller also comes with a parent cupholder and a large storage basket.
The Cosmo did well in the stability and manoeuvrability tests, however, it was not able to compete in head-tohead competitions with top performers such as the Cougar 2. It was capable of holding its own in the test of tilting sideways with a score 33 degrees, but it was not close enough to the highest scores. The front-lock swivel wheel and suspension help with its decent score in this metric. A single step brake pedal locks both rear wheels, which is helpful for tight spaces and improving maneuverability. Available in a wide range of colors, you can buy it at most department stores and chain baby stores and independent stores.
Design
The first look of this stroller is good and its unique fold is appealing but that's really where the benefits end. In tests, it did not perform like its competitors and didn't offer anything exceptional in return. It only holds one car seat, which means it is not a good choice for twins, and its padding leaves much to be desired for a truly comfortable ride over time. It is heavy and clumsy to maneuver, and although it has storage it's minimal and difficult to access.
The frame of the Combi Twin Cosmo has many connections and parts, making it appear less expensive than its competitors who have frames with smaller pieces that are welded instead of riveted. It also has a bizarre appearance when it is collapsed because the seats' backs aren't flat against the frame. It has a decent capacity for weight and it is a little more easy to load into the trunk than its rivals, but the size could cause problems with public transportation as it's likely not going to fit on any 2'X4' rules that are in place.
Despite its size and weight, despite its size and weight, the Combi Twin Cosmo earned a decent score in our test of maneuverability. It took 25 pounds of weight suspended from the handle bar before it tipped over in the opposite direction, which is better than the rest of the competition but not as impressive as the top performer in this metric that is the Chariot Cougar 2.
The rear wheels with wide tires can be locked to improve maneuverability. The single-step brake pedal locks and unlocks the rear wheels at the same time which is ideal to park in tight spaces. Storage space is offered by a cup holder and a large basket, but not as much than other products.
The canopy has a small storage compartment on the back, but it's too low for larger items like diaper bags or grocery bags. Two cup holders are provided, but they are too close together to be useful when sharing drinks. The canopy offers adequate sun protection by using a three panels of sunshade, which block over 99 percent of UV radiation.
Comfort
A key component of strollers is the capacity to sit children in a comfortable place. This stroller has a reclining seat and a large canopy that extends to the back. There is also a parent cup holder and extra storage in the canopy. The stroller also comes with a telescoping handlebar for easy moving and can be parked easily in tight spaces.
This stroller scored high in our quality metric, but it did not impress in the other categories. It was the stroller that had the greatest flex when pushing, and its connection points were constructed of plastic, not an softer material as with other strollers. There was a lot of movement in the wheels and this might make it hard to use on uneven surfaces.
It's a good size and weight, however its maneuverability is limited. It took more force to push it, and this might be difficult for smaller parents to perform on a regular basis. It is able to maneuver through narrow aisles and doors with ease, but it may be hard to fit it into an elevator with a lot of people.
The storage area under the seat is a bit small and was a disappointment for testers. The storage area was difficult to access, and there is a bar that stops larger items from fitting. A diaper bag with two kids' toys did not fit and even the standard size purse may have a problem with the storage space. The additional pockets on the canopy are a nice addition however they don't make up for this poor storage space under the seat.
The stroller's unique fold and carry strap makes it an excellent option for transporting it to and from public transport. However, the weighty stroller can make it difficult to fit in crowded buses and train cars without causing harm to innocent pedestrians. This stroller is ideal to commuters who can easily transport it inside their car. It's light enough to be carried up and down escalators, but it will need to be folded to fit on buses or trains.
Safety
The Combi Fold N Go Stroller is lightweight and compact with a number of useful features. It has a reclining chair with plush harness pads to ensure your baby's safety and comfort and a huge canopy to block the sun, and a large storage space. Its dual front wheel suspension and locking front swivel wheels ensure a smooth ride while allowing air to flow freely in and out of the seating space. The parent cup holder, large basket and adjustable handlebar lets you customize the stroller to suit your personal level.
This stroller earned a excellent rating in our tests of ease of use. The CR testers were impressed that this stroller folds in three steps without bending over, it's light and narrow enough to fit through doorways, and it features a simple-to-use locking brake system. The stroller's leg openings are also narrow to stop infants from slipping through, and it's easy to steer. All of these factors are crucial when selecting a stroller. But, it's equally important that your child is secure in the car seat. This is why you should select a stroller that can fold, unfold, parked and secured with the car seat without requiring any complicated steps or tools.
When the stroller is reclined make sure to attach the child's safety belt and close the gap between the seatback and grab bar. This will prevent your toddler from climbing up and becoming a strangulation or fall risk. Also, ensure that you keep purses or diaper bags away from the stroller handles to avoid entanglement, and reduce the risk of the bag falling over. Registering your stroller with the manufacturer will permit you to be informed in the event that there are any recalls.
A single stroller that is a combi model is a great option for parents who intend to travel or run errands frequently with their toddler and infant. It can be folded and put in your trunk or in a closet, until you need it. It can be carried by hand for easy transport when you need to get from point A to point B quickly.
