Combi Torino DX Full-Sized Lightweight Stroller in Ember

Combi Torino DX Full-Sized Lightweight Stroller in Ember

Combi Torino Stroller The Combi Torino is a fantastic stroller. It is one of the premier Combi strollers because of its lightweight and easy maneuverability. This Combi baby stroller is fantastic because it has stylish fabric combined with sophisticated, modern safety features. It comes in two terrific colors which will fit either a girl or a boy. The Torino DX is a lightweight stroller, perfect for quick trips or long vacations. Weighing in at under 20 lbs, this stroller from Combi is the perfect choice for families looking for a lightweight stroller, but with all of the features of a standard sized stroller. The canopy is designer and features European styling to help give the Combi baby stroller a modern, fashionable look. The canopy on the Combi stroller also extends for increased coverage from the elements. Self standing when folded, the Torino is perfect for stowing in the trunk or other places.

I absolutely love this stroller I have only had it a few days but it is amazing, I got it for my very large 19mo old littler girl (34lbs) and she loves it also. It is super lightweight, turns on a dime, and I love how the seat lays all the way back. I lay it back and let my daughter sit all the way in the back with toys. The basket is smaller, but you can not have everything, but it will hold her jacket, a lunch, and a few toys. The canopy is huge and I love it. I did purchase a cady with hooks to hang from the handles for extra storage. It also folds and unfolds very very easily. I would definitely buy this product again.


CustIuse every feature on this stoller!
i am not the type of parent that buys tons of baby gear with all the bells and whistles - i knew most things would be used for less than 6 months so i contented myself with consignment shop finds. however, i was determined to find a stroller that i wanted since it was to last me 3 years or so.

i ended up with the Combi Torino and i love it!! i have a small frame and needed a lightweight stroller. the Torino is only 16 lbs but provides all the amenities of a full-sized stroller. it also has one of the biggest extendable sunshades - perfect for babies that won't wear hats. there is one a panel of clear plastic in the shade as well that lets you see baby while you push. the stroller i used for my older child didn't have one of those and i was constantly stopping to peek around and check if she was sleeping/in the sun/lost a toy/etc... i also love the harness system on this stroller. it has the full 5 point harness, but the arm straps are looser and adjustable to allow more freedom of movement without having baby's head dangling out the side. the arm straps can also be unclipped easily when baby is ready for just the crotch harness.

the other thing i looked for in a stroller was maneuverability - i like that there is just one handlebar that goes straight across as opposed to 2 curved handles. i have a dog to walk everyday and it is infinitely helpful that i can steer one-handedly while holding the leash with my other hand.

i had considered getting a cheaper model by the same brand, but decided that having a parent cup holder and adjustable handlebars was worth the extra $40. there is almost a foot difference b/w my husband and i in height so the adjustability was key. and although i haven't had to wash it yet, the seat comes off and is washable! besides that, it is well padded and is made of breathable fabric.

of course, there are cons, though very minor. i wish the wheels were made of rubber, not plastic. the brakes are easy to apply with your foot, not so easy to disengage with same foot. i have to bend down to disengage the brakes with my hand depending on what shoes i'm wearing. maybe it will loosen over time. folding the stroller is also a tad difficult (though not a deal breaker for me) b/c the front wheels have to aligned just so in order for it to fold properly. you also need two hands for folding...

in short, this is a great lightweight stroller with tons of features for the price. hope you enjoy yours as much as i do!

7A.M. Enfant "Blanket 212 Evolution" Extendable Bunting Adaptable for Strollers - Gray/Black

7A.M. Enfant "Blanket 212 Evolution" Extendable Bunting Adaptable for Strollers - Gray/Black 

7A.M. Enfant "Blanket 212 Evolution" Extendable Bunting Adaptable for Strollers - Gray/Black it Great product!
i bought this for my 9 month old to use while he's in the stroller and i'm running. minnesota can get cold in the winter, so i needed something that would keep him extra warm. i've only had the chance to use the Blanket 212 Evolution twice, but both times (with the temperature being around 30 degrees) he has stayed very warm. i didn't find it difficult to use, install in the stroller, or adjust the size/length. as of right now, i am very happy with my purchase.
7A.M. Enfant "Blanket 212 Evolution" Extendable Bunting Adaptable for Strollers - Gray/Black  it poor quality - didn't last one winter
I was thrilled to buy this, and I thought it was a genious idea, especially since my son won't wear a hat or gloves no matter how cold outside. It works like a polar-expedition sleeping bag, and it fit my Phil & Ted's stroller perfectly. Baby was snuggled, warm and comfy in the worst weather, without having to wear bulky winter outerwear. For 2 months I couldn't have been happier, even though one of the adjustable pulls broke almost the first day I used it. However, once the hood zipper broke in the middle of winter, this $200 product became as useful as the $40 JJ Cole Bundle Me. I'm willing to pay the price for a high-quality item, but if 7am Enfant is going to charge as much as a North Face polar expedition sleeping bag, they should deliver the same quality. In the end I was terribly disappointed and felt like a sucker for shelling out so much money for a shoddy product.

Customer Review: Nice Stroller
InStep Suburban Safari Double Jogging Stroller (red/grey) This is a very nice stroller for the money. My boys are a little tall, but fit just fine when the seat is back a little. I have little trouble fitting through doors, but feels like it is self-propelled. It runs very well, but investing in an extra sun-visor is a must.

Snuggle Bub Lamb’s Wool Stroller Wrap- Large(Navy)

Protect-a-Bub manufactures sunshades for all sizes of strollers, joggers and car seats. We also carry sun protective swimwear and introducing our newest products the Bunny Wrap and Snuggle Bub.
Customer Review: Amazing purchase -compare with bundleme
I've had bundle me toddler and this. the difference is huge: real lambswool is twice warmer than synthetic wool imitation, the length of bundle me toddle will serve you for one year - max up to 2 years of age, if you baby happened to be tall european baby - 18 months is a top. Snuggle bub in it's turn served us from 12 months to 3 years, when we stopped using the stroller. yes, we had to put it lower, and by the age of 3 it was covering the lower part of the baby from the waist, but still. and absence of zippers make it less problems to worry about breaking. great purchase.

Kelgar Stroll'r Swivel'rs Stroller Hooks

Holds purses, diaper bags, shopping bags and more! Swivels 360 degrees. 2 hooks included! Versatile! Can be used in nursery, bathroom, almost anywhere!

Customer Review: get a big 'D' ring from a home improvement store instead
I kept buying these Stroller Hooks, hoping for the best. The first set were broken on a walk in cold weather (the plastic becomes very brittle in the cold) and the second set broke shortly thereafter. I went to a baby store and bought a big metal D type ring that has "mommmy hook" written on it and then went to Home Depot and saw the same thing without the writing for about 4 bucks less...wish that I'd have looked there first! The metal one works great.
