Concord Wanderer

DISCONTINUED in 2016
see 13 parent reviews

The Concord Wanderer is a versatile all-terrain stroller. In 2013, it replaced the popular Fusion and a year later, it won the iF design award. The distinctive aluminum chassis is color-matched with the textiles. In addition, it is equipped with elastomer suspension in the back. Using the strap, you can recline the reversible seat flat. 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. A shorter hood is complemented by the included detachable awning. The Wanderer has a compact fold, so it also fits into smaller cars. In the folded state, it is held in place by a manual locking strap on the handle.

The stroller is either sold separately with an optional carrycot and a car seat, or available as a complete stroller system with a carrycot, a car seat and a diaper bag. 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. The carrycot can also be replaced with a soft carrycot. The Wanderer was also released in the limited Jungle Green, Rusty Orange and Sweet Curry editions.

Very good stroller for all terrain

4

Very good stroller for all terrain. Large basket for shopping, plenty of room for baby to sleep. I was just annoyed that the frame scratches quickly compared to the Concord Neo - it's better quality there.

The best pram I've ever had

5
  • Plenty of sleeping space
  • Large basket at the bottom

The best pram I've ever had. Great for the terrain. Even a bigger child sleeps comfortably in the reclined position. I recommend.

  • very light
  • foldable
  • modern
  • huge seat
  • easy to drive
  • the front wheels were spinning at the expense of weight
  • the Concord bassinet was replaced by a Jané Micro (bigger) after a while

I don't know if it will be possible to find a better stroller in such a reasonable price range. It pushed very well, it was light, but the front wheels would often spin, probably due to the low weight, they weren't as if they were well weighted. The seat setup was divine, huge, modern design, we had a Concord bassinet with it but had to soon swap for a Jané Micro bassinet because of the size.

The best of the best

5

The best of the best. We went over everything without much effort.

It did what I expected of it

5
  • Also suitable for off-road, forest roads and manoeuvres well in the snow
  • The seat unit can be folded together with the chassis
  • None

Excellent stroller, I didn't get tired of it. For a long time I was looking for a stroller that would be suitable for off-road, on forest roads and that would maneuver well in the snow. And I did well to choose the Wanderer. It may look robust, but it did what I expected of it.

  • Very cushioned, soft stroller, very comfortable for babies, yet quite light
  • Good handling
  • Suitable for terrain
  • The seat can be put to face both directions
  • Huge space in the seat
  • Large basket
  • My hubby likes how big and convenient it is
  • Problem with the wheel lock, it falls out
  • Comfortable for bigger kids, but for mom it's too big and harder to handle than a light Valco and similar strollers
  • When folding the stroller, it is necessary to fold down the seat and the chassis. First you have to put the chassis in the car, then the seat, so you have to put the seat somewhere without getting it dirty
  • In the field, the wheels sometimes get stuck, the locking system would solve it, but it falls out

A proper stroller. Ideal from baby, because it is softly, beautifully cushioned.

It can do it all

5
  • Sturdy
  • Flexible
  • Spacious
  • Stylish
  • Practical
  • None

The best stroller so far. Solid chassis and great wheels that go over any terrain. Large canopy, spacious seat surface, easy handling.

For me, a really great pushchair whether in the city or in the mountains - it can do it all. Its weight equals its quality, so I don't mind that it's maybe a little heavier than rattly buggies.

Spacious, off-road

5

Super solid frame, superb wheels. Spacious, off-road.

We struggled with it with 2 kids

2
  • spacious seat (up to approx. 3 years of age)
  • brake malfunction
  • squeaking of the frame
  • colour fading

Compared to the high price, we expected excellent quality. The chassis squeaked from the start, the brakes were also faulty - bad locking and the brake connecting rod was also falling out. We claimed warranty 5 times, the stroller still worked for 2 days and then the same faults. We struggled with it with 2 kids.

We do not recommend it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It handled even harsh trails

4
  • Super sturdy frame
  • Easy to drive
  • The carrycot can be attached to the back seat in the car as car seat (we didn't use it like that)
  • Nice basket size

The stroller has a perfectly sturdy construction. It handled even harsh trails, and forest paths, all perfectly fine. I was very happy with the handling. The pushchair part could be more upright for the baby, but otherwise, it is designed for smaller babies, it can be put in a full lie-flat position.
