Quinny Buzz 3 Wheel Stroller, Black

Quinny Buzz 3 Wheel Stroller, Black The Quinny Buzz stroller is immediately recognizable by its superb design and unique automatic fold-out system. Thanks to a specially preformed ergonomic seat, the new Quinny Buzz offers even more comfort.

With its futuristic design, the Quinny Buzz is a real eye-catcher. The use of a revolutionary gas spring technique means that the stroller unfolds itself fully automatically. No more wrestling with the stroller to open it. The Quinny Buzz is made of lightweight matte silver aluminum. The double swivel wheel on the front ensures exceptional maneuverability.

Optimal comfort
The new and improved seat design on the Quinny buzz guarantees optimal comfort. The ergonomic design is child-friendly and the seat is made of soft material.

The front and rear wheel suspension make sure that even the smallest of children lies comfortably in this shock resistant stroller. There is also a choice of three reclining and sitting positions and the option to place the seat in a forward or rear facing position.

The all-weather set included with every Quinny Buzz consists of a sun canopy, rain cover and windscreen, making it the ideal all-season stroller.

  • Unique and revolutionary folding system (automatic unfolding)
  • Lockable front swivel wheel
  • Forward or rear-facing stroller seat
  • Height adjustable pushbar, adjustable foot and backrest
  • Includes under-basket for extra storage space
  • Ideal travel system in combination with matching Maxi-Cosi car seat

Customer Review: Clunky and prone to punctures - I wish I hadn't bought this
We thought this looked good and would be a comfortable ride for our little guy, but unfortunately we've not been able to use it for the last SIX weeks because one of the back tires has disintegrated. We used this maybe 30 times over the course of 5 months and had several punctures that are now beyond repair. We've been waiting for over a month for Quinny to send a replacement. Aside from this, the stroller is large and really heavy. There are probably far more useful strollers out there that still look good - I noticed Maxi Cosi has one that also connects to its mico car seat (which we have, and it is great). Avoid the Buzz!
Customer Review: decent but nothing special
This is a 3-star stroller, maybe a 4-star, at under $200.

At the current price, it's a big fat zero, but I have to give it one because it looks neat.

If you want to pay an enormous amt of money for looks, rather than giving the difference to charity or buying books or putting it in your kids' college fund, then go to town.

I was not impressed however ... but like I said, if you've got money to earn and price is immaterial to you, go for it.
