Anyone have this stroller

[pigget74]

I was looking at Combi and was wondering if it was any good. It folds up very thin and has a built in shoulder strap. Let me know if you have one and like it or not.

which Combi is it?

I have 2 combi strollers. I got my 1st combi in 1995. It's just a saavy. It weighs 7 pounds and is very easy to push and fold. In 2004 I bought an ultra saavy. It weighs 12 pounds and had an attachment to for an infant carrier. This stroller folds up nicely and has the carry strap. It does not push as easy as the old combi. I find my cheap graco stroller pushes easier. It fits in the car nicely since it folds in fourth.

Sorry, It is the City Savvy or the Savvy Soho---really not sure in the difference. I have a Preg Prego and a Graco Travel system, but I wanted something that would fold up easily and compact for use on the disney buses. We are planning the trip for May and November and possibly March. Since we have AP's and are DVC members--just basically need a stroller to use at Disney.

We had the savvy. Two things to keep in mind. Its short, taller people can find it uncomfortable, expecially after a while. Also, its got like no storage.

We have a Soho we bought at Target specifically for our WDW trip. My only complaint is its not easy to steer. We were used to a huge Graco Quattro Tour which steers so smoothly and goes over anything. The Combi can be hard to handle but the convenience of easy fold up for those buses was great! It is lightweight and the shoulder strap makes it easy to pack through the airport or on any of the buses. My DS loves his Combi. Sometimes the Combi can be hard to navigate on anything but a smooth street too.

Its okay for doctor's offices or other places with narrow halls, but its too short for my 5'7" height, and it's hard to steer my 22lb son. I woudnt recommend it really unless you are 5'0 and have a lightweight

Thanks for the responses.

I just bought this stroller for our upcoming WDW trip in May, and have started using it in the mall,etc. I like it's compact fold, and while I wish it had more storage space, I think it will be good, since I will really have to think twice before bringing too much stuff along. Anything you bring you have to carry on to rides, unless you are not concerned about it being pilfered! I am also 5'7", but find the height is not an issue. My DD will be 18 months old at the time we go, and currently (at 15 mo) weighs 26.5 lbs! I still find it easy to push along. And I have used it off-road (on grass) already. Should be great for the trip.

Just my thoughts.....

I used to have the travel savvy. I bought it b/c my parents took us on a cruise when my oldest DS was 6 months old. I wanted something small to have in the cabin since they are SO small. It folded up small enough to fit in the overhead compartment on the plane and took up next to no space in the room. DS was only 6 months so he fit fine in it but a year later he looked squished in there if I tried to use it then. No the best steering though.

I do have a Volo which folds up like an an umbrella stroller and has a carry strap. Steers GREAT too. LOVE that stroller, it's perfect for WDW (unless of course it is for a baby who need the recline but for older kids the way the seat sort of slings them they can rest their heads back and nap just fine).

I looked at a Combi last year at Babys R Us and didn't like it at all. It was short as someone above mentioned and seemed cheap to me. I ended up getting a Silver Cross, which is better for taller people and seems very sturdy. It fold up with a shoulder strap and is about 9 lbs.
