Parent reviews of the Baby Merc Q9
- low price
- accessories included
- deep bassinet is super spacious
- reclining even in the bassinet
- rocks nicely
- positioning of the legs on the seat
- plastic covered handle in front of the child as wee as the space for the feet (great for sweaty hands and dirty shoes)
- the handle in front of the child is adjustable
- harder to store in the car (takes up the whole trunk)
- a bit of a rattle on the cobbles
- takes a grip to take the bassinet off
It's not a super modern model, but it does the job well...
- Spacious
- Great for bumpy roads
- Good to sleep in it
- Big shopping basket
- The bag that comes with it
- The car seat is hard to get out of the stroller skeleton
- Too heavy
- Very big to put it on car
The stroller itself is very comfortable for the baby, but not so much for the mom. I say this because it is very heavy, if you are alone and you want to put it in your car you will probably need help from someone, it is not recommended if you travel a lot since it is very big. The stroller material is very qualitative, I have washed it and it’s good as new, but I don’t like the plastic-like material where the baby keeps the hands, because she has bitten it and it is all chopped. Another thing that I dislike is the quality of the buckles, they are not very adjustable and are made of poor quality.
I like that it has all the stuff that a stroller needs, the mosquito net, rain and wind cover, diaper bag, etc., all included in the price.
Overall the stroller is okay, but it could have been better and possibly lighter.
Baby Merc’s after-sale service is very poor! We bought a Baby Merc and were unhappy with the quality (compared with previous models the lining is not the same: the current material used causes tiny hands to dirty it very quickly; the car seat’s material was also of a much cheaper quality material. I used to be an extremely enthusiastic supporter of Baby Merc products, but am now EXTREMELY disappointed! Complaining to them did not help (and I truly believe I was polite!) they (the importers are Baby ‘n More) replied with snotty and arrogant remarks.
ALSO BEWARE!! Do not buy anything early in your pregnancy! We bought it 7 months before our little one was born and when we opened it to use it, realized it was not what we wanted. They refuse to exchange or refund or even just LISTEN.
My first pram - and I wouldn't want any other. :-) Even though the seat reclining was not the smoothes, still, I wouldn't choose differently.
The best pram/stroller system I could possibly have. Beautiful, lightweight, affordable, and everything can be washed... a top choice for me. We used it fully with both of our children.
- Low price
- Suspension
- Bulky
- Heavy
- Gets stuck
- The car seat is a catastrophe
My first stroller system. I would not want it again. I would rather buy a pre-loved carrycot-only pram, and then some practical stroller later on. There are better stroller systems than this one.
Satisfaction. It is, however, more suitable for shorter moms (parents) - it is not very high. The baby has enough space in it, though. We were very using it until our little one was one year old.
- Click on system
- Ours doesn't lay flat
- Manipulation is not good
We are not too thrilled about it.
It's a superb pram, in my opinion.
Great for all-terrain, but after only half a year, the chassis broke completely. So it went... away.
Your questions about the Baby Merc Q9
Hi there :)
Is the handle reversible? As in, am I able to face the child or change so that the child can face outward?
Thank you
Hey, Tracy,
No, the handle doesn't reverse. It can only be height adjusted.
You can, however, turn the whole bassinet and also the seat to face you OR the road. SO those click-on parts are reversible.
Hello, the front wheels don't turn left or right. It is difficult to maneuver. Is there a way to smoothen it?
Hey, Koo,
If it's not locked in the fixed position (there's a wheel lock over the wheel, try to change the position of the lever over the wheel), you can also try cleaning the wheel and oiling it. If nothing of that helps, there may be a problem that needs servicing or replacement. I am pretty sure though you just thee to release the wheel lock over the wheels.
