Parent reviews of the Knorr Baby Volkswagen Convert
- Very solid frame
- Large canopy - no more sun in the eyes
- Stylish, original design - few people have such a stroller
- Stroller pushes very easily
- When the baby is in the lying position, it is impossible to get at all to the things stored in the bag underneath
- Folding and unfolding is quite difficult at first, some force is needed
- No accessories - bag, apron, blanket are missing
Very high quality and sturdy stroller. It has two positions, sit and lie down. Like most golf buggies it is very lightweight and can be easily folded into the car so that it looks like a pair of golf clubs. The wheels and hood have the stylish original Volkswagen logo. The "mattress" and fastenings are very comfortable. I was a little short of some accessories, a custom made apron or footmuff would be nice. It can be bought in red and black, blue and black or grey and black. I paid 80 euros for it, I think a fine price for that honest German quality :)
Your questions about the Knorr Baby Volkswagen Convert
Hello,
I got this model of a stroller but it’s missing a bumper bar. Is there a possibility to buy it separately somewhere in Germany or Austria?
Greetings, Nina.
Hi, Nina,
I'm afraid the only thing you can do is to write directly to the manufacturer (knorr-baby GmbH | Am Schafberg 4 | D-96489 Niederfüllbach | Phone +49 (0) 9565 9449 80 | Fax + 49 (0) 9565 9449 85 | info@knorr-baby.de). It is possible, though, they might not communicate or not provide spare parts, so be ready for that possibility. You can also try retailers of this brand, but the model is not sold much anywhere, so I'll probably recommend using it without a belly bar. It is absolutely possible.
