GB Q*fold

DISCONTINUED in 2014

The GB Q*fold is a narrow umbrella stroller with an atypical design. It has a compact 3D fold. You can recline the softly padded seat fully, suitable even for small babies. With the purchase of an optional car seat, you can create a 2in1 travel system. Newer versions have an improved, expandable hood with mesh.
