 DO NOT BUY THIS STROLLER, IT IS A HAZARD TO YOUR CHILD SAFETY October 15, 2007

Buy this stroller only if you think your child will never ever move.
It just tipped over and my daughter wasn't even moving that much. She hit her head on the pavement, we were in a public place and few people around us witnessed the accident. It was scary...this stroller is dangerous and should NOT be on the market. If you look at the back wheels you will notice they should extend much further in order to offer proper balance. Quinny has made the smallest stroller around when it comes to folding, but it has sacrificed safety.
A very good travel stroller for jetsetters September 27, 2007

The Zapp (US version) is a very good stroller for traveling types. The addition of the four-point ride for the US version (instead of the original three-pointer in the EU) has resolved any stationary or moving stability problems. The Zapp is light, but not too light like a cheap, flimsy umbrella stroller you'd find at the dollar store, and thus, it's great for traveling or for small cars with even smaller trunks. It's easy to push and maneuver, and it has good looks.
Will it replace my Bugaboo Gecko? No! It's not as easy to drive one-handed since there is no handlebar, only handles. With the Bugaboo you can center one hand on the bar and maneuver it nicely one-handed. The other reason why my Zapp will not replace my Gecko is the ride. Bugaboos have primo suspension! When I push the Zapp on the street or sidewalk, it's a bit rattly, and the wheels make *noticeable noise* almost like a shopping cart's. At that moment I knew I was missing the utter silence and smoothness of a Bugaboo ride.
Since the Bugaboo does not travel as well (it takes a bigger, longer transport bag), I am recommending the Zapp for traveling and zipping in and out of international subways. Why didn't Quinny call this the Quinny Zipp? Its light weight at around 15 1/2 pounds satisfies although my Gecko weighs only 18 pounds. Its vibrant color is oddly soothing. Its folding has a short learning curve, and since the Zapp comes with a travel bag and a bunch of accessories, it's a *good value* for those who want to combine modern style and futuristic design with travel ease.
 The zippers gave me blisters! August 8, 2007

I purchased this stroller because it was lightweight and compatible with my Maxi-Cosi Cabrio car seat/ carrier. I was excited because I heard so many great things about it. However, I was really disappointed by the quality of the zippers. The seat attaches to the frame via zippers and velcro. You need to zip off the seat and attach the car seat adaptors in order to use it to carry the car seat. This is a pain in itself, but the zippers were really difficult to open and close. The zippers collapsed and were impossible to close. There are zippers around the whole thing! One would think they would use quality zippers. Trying to zip the zipper around the bottom corners gave my husband and I blisters! We literally worked on closing the zipper for over a half an hour. I am returning it unzipped.
I really like the color, the way it maneuvers and its size, but I can't deal with the aggravation of the zippers. The Maxi-Cosi products I ordered recently are different than the models from Europe. I am not sure if it is the same with the Quinny. I can't imagine people singing the praises of this stroller if they used the same zippers.
 Love it! Love it! Love it! October 20, 2007

We have only had our Zapp for a few days but it is AWESOME! Lightweight, folds small and looks fabulous! We have gotten too many complements to count in 3 seperate outings. Yes, it will flip backwards if you put TONS of weight on the back of it, but any umbrella stroller would do the same. It was just fine with my large purse hanging on it. You can't expect this stroller to be everything (i.e. weigh next to nothing but still behave like a full-size) but it sure does come close. It turns on a dime, with only one hand. I easily found a cup-holder/tray to fit it for just 10 bucks. Me and my husband both enjoy handling it, and today we decided to give away our travel system to be replaced with the maxi-cosi infant seat to go with this for our next child. We love it! Oh and I think the previous poster has a faulty stroller as our wheels and the sample in the store both rode without squeeking or rattling! Buy this stroller, you will love it!
Pros and Cons November 2, 2007

We bought this to be the compact/travelling stroller that would compensate for the not so compact Bugaboo stroller that we own. Friends of ours had bought one in a Europe a year ago and talked about how compact and easy to fold it was. Here's our list of Pros and Cons:
Pros:
- Fun colors, overall very cool design
- Compact when folded, takes up minimal trunk space in our sedan
- The four-wheel American version isn't as prone to tipping as the 3-wheel Euro version, which means you can also hold some items (bottle holder, small changing bag) off the handle bars without worrying that the stroller will fall over when you get the baby out
- Maneuvers nicely in narrow spaces, although clearly not as smooth a ride as the Bugaboo
Cons:
- Doesn't recline; our 8 month old still falls asleep in it, but it doesn't look like it's comfortable enough to take her through a full nap of more than one hour on the road; we're planning to buy a SnugHug neck support to see if this makes it more comfortable for naps
- The 3-wheel Euro model has the nice hydraulic "auto open" feature that the Quinny Buzz has, but the 4-wheel American version doesn't; overall, the stroller is very easy to fold-down, but without the hydraulic action, it's hard to open up (hard to explain, but you need to pull out this one piece in the back, and so far we haven't been able to do it without turning the stroller on its side; that's fine if the baby's still in the car, but not if you're just off an airplane and trying to unfold the stroller with the baby in your arms and people trying to get by)
- we were told by our friends that it was small enough to take on board the plane; that may be true, but it's still pretty cumbersome; even with two of us travelling with the baby, it was too much of a pain to carry that plus our diaper bag, plus any work/reading stuff, so we checked it in at the gate
