Valco Baby Snap Ultra Tailormade
The Valco Snap Ultra Tailormade is a lightweight urban stroller with a high weight capacity. It is a higher version of the Snap Ultra featuring premium melange fabrics. The seat looks similar to the Snap Ultra seat, but unlike that, it is not a bucket-type of seat. It can be reclined fully, laying flat. The leg rest is also adjustable. In order to maximize the comfort of the newborn, you can add a carrycot or a car seat to the chassis, or use the newborn insert instead. All-terrain wheels with air-filled tires are also an optional accessory. By replacing the foam wheels, you can create the Sport version of the stroller.

Parent reviews of the Valco Baby Snap Ultra Tailormade
- Lightweight
- Reversible seat
- Large basket
- Variable adjustability of both backrest and footrest
- Folds easily
- Canopy can be extended all the way down
- No suspension
I bought the stroller based on my babysitting experience. But there I always carried a child older than 1 year and I bought it with a fixed seat for the baby.
It is absolutely unsuitable for a baby. It has no suspension and the baby gets knocked around on the slightest bumps or even just on cobbles, of which there are plenty in the city. Luckily my son wasn't a stroller baby to begin with, so it didn't have a chance to hurt him as we always rode max 30 min around the house on smooth pavement.
Despite this, I don't give the Snap a miss. It's an amazing stroller and I'm saving it for when my son is older.☺️
- Lightweight
- Compact
- Narrow seat (a larger toddler in winter clothing + a footmuff is quite cramped inside )
- No push bar adjustment, better for taller parents
We're happy with it. Easy manipulation, large basket for any shopping, reversible seat – which is very nice with small babies, and there's an expandable canopy protecting from the wind which also has ventilation mesh for the summer... and an adjustable calf rest.
- reversible
- easy manipulation
- lightweight
- none
For me, excellent. Lightweight, easy to push, with a great folding system, seat unit fully adjustable, and the carrycot can be reversed.
- Lightweight
- Spacious
- Beautiful
- Easy to push
- Perfect hood with a mesh part
- Large shopping basket
- Nothing
A perfect pushchair, would buy it again 🙂👍🏻
- Forward- and rear-facing
- Lightweight chassis
- Extendable hood that covers the whole seat
- Ventilation net on the hood
- Affordable
- Large underslung basket
- Simple fold - but you do need two hands
- Suitable for tall parents
- No suspension
- Rain cover is sold separately
- Narrow seat
An affordable combination of all I needed in a pushchair.
