Combi Savvy Z -- DEFINITELY Not Worth The Sticker Price

by dannyzmom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Aug 14 '00
Pros: Lightweight and compact
Cons: Flimsy, uncomfortable, small basket, wheels lock up
I got this stroller on a friend's recommendation and am not so happy with it. I was looking for a stroller that I could take on an airplane. I wanted it to be light-weight and to be able to easily fold it into a compact size. I also wanted it to be...

Savvy Z was not for me!

by neuhofer , Jan 23 '02
Pros: A+ for stylish. Amazingly lightweight. Shoulder strap is perfect.
Cons: Binding swivel wheels. Poor, flexing frame design. Short-average height parents ONLY!
My rural Manitoba location makes it difficult/impossible to test-drive most of the strollers available across the USA. I had read about the Combi Savvy Z extensively on the 'net and it had great owner satisfaction.

I also read that it was good...

Combi Savvy is a Baby Staple

by forkids Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 14 '99
Pros: Combi is the best in its class.
Cons: Pricey and a measly storage basket.
I swear by my Combi. This is one of the best purchases we have ever made and every new parent/expectant parent should have a good look before deciding on anything else. Combi makes many models in three different categories---Carriage, Travel, and...

Combi Savvy Z - Expensive, but probably worth it

by tlbwriter Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 30 '00
Pros: Compact, lightweight, and extremely cool
Cons: Price
It's not often that strangers stop you on the street to ask where you bought your stroller, but the Combi Savvy Z (in a snazzy leopard print) inspires that kind of reaction. OK, so it's cool, but is it worth 200 bucks? Let's see…

by prfstars Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 14 '00
Pros: Lightweight, very compact, has most of the features of a full size stroller

The Combi Savvy combines the features of a full size stroller with the convenience of an umbrella stroller. I highly recommend this product to anyone for whom space is at a premium. If you have a small apartment, or even a small trunk, the Combi Savvy is...

Pros: Lightweight, durable

Before a friend gave me a Combi Savvy Z as a gift, I thought the high-end, light-weight strollers were a waste of money. My sentiments were based on the fact that I survived my first son's toddler-hood with a $49 Graco stroller (sure...it was hard...

My Little Sports Car - the Savvy Z

by tamiam , Jan 08 '01
Pros: Super light, quick 'n' easy fold/unfold, neat canopy pocket, removable front bumper.
Cons: Three- (instead of five-) point harness, tiny storage basket.
Do you want a stroller that folds into almost nothing? That you can take out of the trunk with one hand? That unfolds and sets up in about 1.5 seconds? That has a great little pocket behind the canopy for your keys and phone? That is AT LEAST as narrow...

Savvy Z is a great stroller and worth the money
by digitaloz ,Mar 07 '04
Pros: Light weight, excellent quality, lots of features
Cons: More expensive than most
The Savvy Z is a great travel stroller. It is very compact when folded up and is very light weight. The construction is solid and it has very nice trim details. While it is more expensive than most umbrella strollers, there is a big difference in the quality of the materials and construction. Even though it is a light weight stroller, it has a canopy, two cup holders, a pouch and a basket. The price of this stroller includes the canopy for blocking sun and rain, so keep that in mind when comparing against the price of the Macleran Volo, for example, where it is an additional $40 item.

Perfect for Travel
by cmaeh ,Jul 13 '07
Pros: Stable,convenient,light weight,easy to use
Cons: Handle is short,doesn't recline all the way.
We bought this stroller when our little one was 7 months now 21 months. We have been to London, Italy, Washington DC, and Southern California. And, the stroller looks brand new. It is lights and fits not only on the overhead compartment on airplanes but also on European trains. The width of the stroller was also a plus on the side streets of Florence and Rome. The sidewalks are extremely narrow and the stroller was just the perfect width for all of them. Also, narrow passages were a breeze with its design. After a long day of walking the stroller worked great as a high chair and fit in the tiniest of restaurants. Along with it being easy to maneuver,and working well in restaurants, it is easy to fold-up at the end of the airline boarding gate and get onto the airplane. If your little one is still in the infant car seat the handle of the car-seat slips over the stroller handle for easy check-in at boarding. The perfect stroller for travel.
