I have the whole 3 in 1 system. Too bad I won't give it 10 points just because of the seat part.

The carrycor is absolutely TOP! The best I've seen - size, sturdiness, canopy, detachable from the chassis, materials, ability to use as a cradle when removed from the chassis - just totally awesome, and spacious too.

The car seat is also TOP - it has sides around the head, which not many car seats have (I've seen quite a few). The baby's head is really well protected. It's roomy, has a newborn insert, and can be used as a highchair on the go if needed while baby is not sitting :-)

Minus 2 points were taken because of the Pop Up seat. The canopy is fine, and the seating space (height/width), too, but it has one flaw - the leg positioning is unstable and my baby kept sliding off it. As long as he was lying down it was ok, but if he was sitting up (even in the footmuff) I still had to straighten him up all the time.

The chassis is super foldable; completely unsprung, though, so you can hear some rattling. Mine didn't squeak because we took care of it and oiled it regularly with WD40.

  • Light
  • Easy steering
  • Spacious bassinet
  • Facing rearward and lie-flat positioning
  • No suspension can be felt
  • Squeaks
  • Loose
  • Car seat is too big

Disappointing for me, I felt you pay more for the brand than for the quality.

It is easy to handle. The bassinet is spacious, the canopy is rather classic. The positioning of it is peculiar - when lifting the head, it also lifts below the knees, which did not suit my child.

We used the car seat twice, because it is too big and the baby is drowning in it. The seat part is classic, it goes into a full recline and faces also the parent.

3.7/5
