Combi Single Stroller Review

This stroller is a steal at a price, with a traditional umbrella folding feature and an elegant aluminum frame. It comes with a cup holder for the parent along with a large basket, as well as a canopy pocket to store everything you need.

The stroller bends when it is it is pushed, particularly on rough surfaces. This can be a problem if are a parent who is on the move and you want to make use of your stroller regularly.

Features

Combi strollers are designed to make caring for children more enjoyable and simpler. They are lightweight, easy to use, and look attractive. They also have various safety features including 3-point and 5 point harnesses, reversible handles large canopy and adjustable suspension. Some models also come with cups for parents and a large basket.

The Cosmo is the Combi's most popular stroller that can also fit car seats. The stroller did not do well in CR’s traditional stroller-and car seat compatibility test. The company's other models including the Flare, and the Shuttle have received more favorable reviews online.

One of the most impressive features that this stroller comes with is its simple fold that can be accomplished in three steps, and doesn't require bent over. It is easy to maneuver and is able to be used on a variety of terrains. It comes with a large umbrella that guards your child from harsh conditions like wind and sun.

It's also very robust, due to an extremely sturdy steel frame. The wheels are also made of a special material that absorbs bumps and shocks from the road. It also has an elevated seat that is 53cm tall, to keep your baby above the ground and to avoid contact with allergens, dirt and other substances. The Combi stroller also comes with a cupholder for parents and a large storage basket.

The Cosmo received a high score in the stability and maneuverability tests however it was not able to compete with top performers like the Cougar 2 in our head-to-head comparisons. In the test of sideways tipping, it held its own with a score of 33 degrees, but it was not as close as the top scores in this metric. The front-lock swivel wheels and suspension help with its decent score in this metric. The single-step brake pedal locks the rear wheels. This is helpful for tight spaces, and enhances the ability to maneuver. Available in a variety of colors, you can find it at many department stores as well as chain baby stores and even at independent shops.

Design

The initial appearance of this stroller is okay and its unique fold is appealing but that's where the positives come to an end. In tests, it did not perform as well as its competitors and offered nothing spectacular in return. It is only able to hold one car seat so it is not a good option for twins. Its padding leaves much to be desired for a truly comfortable ride over time. It's heavy, awkward and difficult to maneuver. Although it has storage, it's small and difficult to access.

The frame of the Combi Twin Cosmo is very large and is packed with many connections and components that make it appear less expensive than some of its competitors with frames that are cleaner, use smaller pieces and feature joints that are welded instead of rivets. The backs of the seat don't lie flat against the frame when it's collapsed. It has a decent weight capacity and it is a little more easy to load into a trunk than some of its competitors, however the size could pose a problem for public transport since it's not compatible with any rules for 2'X4' that apply in the area.

Despite its size and bulk despite its size and weight, the Combi Twin Cosmo earned a reasonable score in our maneuverability test. It took just 25 pounds to tip the Combi Twin Cosmo backwards, which is higher than the majority of the competition. However, it falls short of the top performers in this test that is the Chariot Cougar 2

The wide rear wheels can be locked to enhance maneuverability. The single-step brake pedal locks and unlocks the rear wheels simultaneously which is ideal for parking in tight spots. A parent cup holder as well as a large basket, and canopy pocket provide storage space but they are not as big in comparison to other items.

There is small storage space on the back of the canopy but it's too small to be of much use to store larger items such as diaper bags and groceries. Two cup holders are included but they're too close together to be useful for sharing drinks. The canopy offers decent sun protection with three panels of sunshade that blocks more than 99 percent UV Rays.

Comfort

One of the most important features of strollers is the capacity to allow children to sit in a comfortable posture. This stroller offers a reclining seat with a huge canopy that extends to the rear of the seats. The canopy also has an adult cup holder and additional storage. The stroller also comes with an adjustable handlebar that can be telescopically adjusted for effortless moving and can be parked easily in tight spaces.

The stroller scored well in our quality measure, but it did not impress in any other categories. It had the highest flex in its frame when pushed and its connecting points are made of plastic instead of being a soft product like other strollers. The wheels were extremely flexible and may be difficult to use on uneven surfaces.

It has good maneuverability but this is offset by its weight and size. It took more effort to push it, and this could be difficult for parents of smaller children to accomplish on a daily basis. It can easily maneuver through narrow aisles and doors but it may be difficult to fit in an elevator with a lot of people.

The storage area under the seat was not ideal for the test participants. It was hard to access, and there's an open space in the middle of the area that prevents larger items from being able to fit. A diaper bag filled with two kids' toys was not able to fit and a standard sized purse might have a problem with the storage space. The additional pockets on the canopy are a nice touch but they do not provide the needed storage option underneath the seat.

The unique carry strap and fold makes it an ideal choice for transporting passengers to and from public transportation. However, the bulk of the stroller will make it harder to fit on trains and buses with a lot of people without hitting innocent pedestrians. This stroller might be best single stroller for commuters who are able to easily transport it in their cars. It is light enough to be carried and down escalators, however it will need to be folded if you wanted to transport it on a train or bus.

Safety

The Combi Fold N Go Stroller is compact and lightweight with a number of useful features. It comes with a reclining seat with plush harness pads to ensure your baby's safety and comfort as well as a large canopy to block out the sun, and a large storage space. The dual front wheel suspension, lockable front wheels and large canopy ensure a smooth ride and allow airflow into and out of the seat area. The cup holder for the parent large basket, as well as the adjustable handlebar lets you customize the stroller to your preference level.

This stroller received a very excellent rating in our tests of ease of use. Testers from CR liked the fact that the stroller folds down in just three steps without having to bend over, it's light and narrow enough to fit through doors and also features a simple-to-use locking brake system. The stroller's leg openings are also small to prevent children from falling through, and it is easy to control. Those are all important aspects to consider when choosing a stroller, however it's also crucial that a child can be securely secured in the car seat. You should choose a stroller that can be folded and unfolded quickly, parked, and secured with a car seat attached.

When the stroller is reclining, always remember to secure the child's safety belt and close the gap between the seatback and the grab bar. This will prevent your toddler from climbing up and becoming a strangulation risk or fall danger. Keep diaper bags and purses away from the handles of the stroller in order to avoid the possibility of entanglement. This will also decrease the risk that the bag will tip over. It is also important to register your new stroller with the manufacturer so you can be notified of any recalls.

A combi single stroller is a great choice for parents who plan to travel or run errands frequently with their newborn and toddler. It's compact and light when folded, and can be easily tucked away in your trunk or closet until you are ready to use it again. It is also able to be carried by hand when you are in a rush to get from A B.
