Concord Neo

DISCONTINUED in 2020
see 20 parent reviews

The Neo is Concord's flagship stroller. It was released in 2008. It has a unique design. The frame has a specific Y shape in the front. The wheels with all-round suspension ensure balanced and smooth ride. The bucket seat is placed higher. It can be tilted to a fully reclined position. The leg rest can also be adjusted. For greater safety, it is possible to lock the 5-point harness so that a child cannot undo it. A thin apron is hidden in the swing-away bumper bar. The hood is complemented by the included detachable awning.

With the purchase of accessories, you can convert the stroller into any desired set, or you can buy a complete stroller system. You have a choice of two types of carrycots. The Sleeper creates a Travel Set - it is sturdier and can also be used in the car. The Scout creates the Mobility Set - it can be folded to a size of a handbag. You can also attach a Jané or Be Cool carrycot to the chassis.

You can identify the older models by the smaller mesh shopping basket and a non-extendable hood with no peek-a-boo window. Front wheels as well as the seat were somewhat smaller. Another difference of the older models is the milder suspension without visible springs.

The Neo was also released in limited editions: the 2016 Viver Qualidade, the Special Edition Milan or the Jungle, and the Emerald Limited Edition and the Ivory Limited Edition in 2017. It is also available in the luxurious limited Carbon edition with a carbon chassis.

Parent reviews of the Concord Neo

4.4/5
Add YOUR review
if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^

I am very happy with the stroller, I will definitely choose this brand again for my second.

  • quality German product
  • compact enough
  • the seat part folds together with the chassis in one piece (no matter if it is folded towards the mother or towards the front)
  • bucket seat style
  • brake on the handle
  • ypsilon chassis shape is great to manoeuvre - like a tricycle, yet it's a quad :-D
  • narrow design - fits well in shops in narrow aisles
  • front foam wheels
  • when the child is unrestrained, I would accept a crotch strap on handle so the child doesn't slip out (like the Polish prams have)

If I have another kid in 3 years, I'm buying Concord again :-D

I love my Concord

4
  • Not wide 😉 fits even in narrow aisles in the store
  • Easy to operate/manipulate with one hand
  • Very handy and sturdy brake on the parent handle
  • Bucket seat
  • Quite deep hood coverage
  • Handy child handle release when you want to "let the baby out"
  • Easy to fold
  • Built-in rain cover in the child handle
  • Seat can face in both directions
  • Small storage space under the stroller (the basket can't carry larger purchases, unfortunately)
  • Canopy could be more practical, like the Fusion's 😊

I love my Concord 😉

Excellent stroller

  • Everything
  • Nothing

I can't get enough of Concord 😍 Excellent stroller.

Absolute happiness

4
  • Suspension
  • Hand brake
  • Large basket
  • Quality material - neoprene waterproof hood
  • Waterproof material on the whole stroller
  • Apron hidden in the handle
  • Easy maintenance - everything can be washed in the washing machine
  • Easy folding with seat in both directions
  • Suitable for off-road use
  • Comfortable for baby
  • Spacious, even with a footmuff there is plenty of room
  • Practical step for sibling
  • Nice design and colours
  • Practical bassinet - foldable
  • Short hood - I would accept a bit longer, although my younger daughter likes it best with the hood up

Absolute happiness with this stroller, I use it already with my second daughter. We went through everything with it. Practical, foldable, high quality.

Really awesome

4

Really an awesome stroller, it's just a pity that it has a bucket seat, which bothered us. Otherwise there is nothing to complain about. The construction is solid, scratch-resistant (which cannot be said about the Concord Wanderer). Quick to fold, doesn't take up much room in the trunk.

A bit heavier than others, but for me an absolute top. Easy to handle. The bassinet is not so huge, so I can fit it everywhere, and it doesn't get in the way. And what's great is that the bassinet can be used to carry a grandma in the car by strapping it with the harness.

It's mainly suitable for the city

3

It's quite alright, but it's mainly suitable for the city (small front wheels). Lightweight, portable.... I wouldn't buy it again because of that though.

Quite ok

4
  • A very lightweight pram
  • Carry cot usable as a car seat
  • Modern design

It's quite ok. Very light. I liked the design - it looked modern, also the possibility of using the carry cot as a car seat.

But I have reservations:
- I had a purple colour in combination with grey and black - the purple faded a lot, compared to e.g. the purple Britax I have at home, which keeps its colour
- I don't like the shape of the cot that much - specifically the rotating mechanism at the end of the cot, which regulates the height of the baby's lying or sitting position in the cot, its appearance reminds me of toothpaste
- the carseat has only a thinner slat as a roof, it could be thicker. In the car against the sun, it is enough; but if you want to put the egg on the frame and walk in cooler weather, not great.

THE stroller

5

Good quality, lightweight, easy to handle stroller. Waterproof materials, yet completely thin. For me, THE stroller!

Your questions about the Concord Neo

1)

Which baby carrier is compatible with the Neo stroller?

Hey, Gaby,

All Concord and Jané car seats fit the Concord Neo, no adapters needed.

My Concord Neo's rear wheels have already worn out. Been using it for 3 years. How do I get them replaced?

Hi Zati,

There's not that much you can do. This model was already discontinued and spare parts are never widely available. That means you can only try to write the manufacturer (here's the contact form) or go and browse through classifieds. This is what I would do - I'd try to find one pre-owned that has wheels in better condition or find a person that sells their own older stroller for parts.

P.S. Worn-out wheels are not a functional error, it's just normal after some time - especially with EVAN foam. If your stroller still works and you won't find a solution, you can still use it as it is. Otherwise, it might be it's just been used till the end.

We bought Concord Neo stroller, it's the best stroller in the world ❤️

Till what age we can use it?

Hello, Lily!

The Concord Neo is a pram/pushchair that is officially usable up to 15 kg (around 3 years of age). As a reversible stroller, however, and a bucket-seat stroller as well, it is, of course, less spacious than a non-reversible pushchair or a buggy, so it will actually last you a bit less than the usual three years (also, moms using it confirm that). The real usage of the Concord Neo ranges around 18-24 months, and that is how long you will probably use it.

After that, most people pass to a lightweight, non-reversible stroller (the needs of the parents, as well as those of the child change around that time, and something simpler and more lightweight & compact, will be much more appreciated, believe me).
