The Valco Baby Snap Ultra Trend is new for 2019. It is a superior Trend version of the original Snap Ultra and the latest Snap Ultra Tailormade with a new type of wheels; elegant, glossy, black chassis; Tailormande melange fabrics and two times extending XXXL hood featuring an added peek-a-boo window. The stroller is also equipped with a bonus 'bootinet' - an elevated safety apron with an integrated net, and an extended bumper bar, which can transform the seat unit into a safe place for the youngest children. Just like other strollers from the Snap family, the patented one-hand fold, the extending hood and the ultra-low weight of 5.6 kg is a matter of course. The stroller can be folded even with the seat attached in whichever direction. The matching Snap Trend Ultra carrycot, as well as well-known brands of car seats with adapters, can be added to the stroller chassis.

The seat unit can be reclined sufficiently even for children that can’t sit independently yet. Although the seat can be used from birth too, it is still better to use it with a newborn nest or an insert. Another advantage is the strap mechanism of the backrest that can be operated using just one hand and a lot of positions of the leg rest (including an elevated one).

parents say thx^^

The ability to fold the stroller without removing the top part was crucial

zuzekk - 26 Aug 2022

Lightweight and compact
Nice non-slip fabric - Tailormade
Easy to assemble
Easy to use
Great to have the canopy opening up over the legs - no light rain to deal with + no more shades against the sun!

It can't get away with all terrain, it's not a terrain pushchair

The ability to fold the stroller without removing the top part with the combination of two-way travel was crucial.

We'd buy it again

danusa50 - 25 Apr 2022

A great pram, we'd buy it again if we had to choose again. 😊

Nanoznik pre jarne/letbe babatko posluzi ako vanicka

bajka3 - 20 Apr 2022

Reversibility
Apron for the pushchair
Large basket

No suspension
Without air-filled wheels, it rattles
Lasts up to two years of the child at the maximum

I'd underline the apron that is superb for a spring/summer baby instead of a bassinet-

No suspension, but with the optional inflatable wheels is the ride much smoother

Petra - 01 Jul 2020

a reversible seat (one of my main priorities)
super easy to fold and overall lightweight (before we owned the Oyster 3, that was heavier)
when the child lays down, you can open a very large ventilation window - our DD likes to lay in her belly and look out through it as well
the xxl hood is genius - when you extend it fully, there's plenty of shade even for a nap; we, however, never tried how waterproof it really is..?
the normal viewing window is magnetic-closed - so you won't wake up your child (like in our Britax B-Motion 4 Plus)
the leg cover with the extra bumper bar (like the one you see in the Youtube video) are included

inflatable wheels are not included!!! We had to buy them extra, and they were quite expensive, compared to the overall price of the stroller... but of course, this may seem different to different people
even if they claim a full recline, the laying position is not completely flat, even though, it's deep enough
the reclined position makes the whole seat similar to those ergonomic/bucket-type seats (the Valco Snap 4 Tailor Made Sport has this better designed)
the original leg cover fits perfectly; I do miss, however, side access with some kind of zipper. The zipper is only on the top side, and you can only get the child in through the top - like into a sleeping bag
no suspension, but with the optional inflatable wheels is the ride much smoother

I bought the Valco Snap Ultra Trend in May 2020 for my 7-month-old daughter. Our requirements were:

*a reversible seat unit
*inflatable wheels
*large internal space to fit even a larger child
*large hood
