Customer Reviews

Exactly what I was looking for
I spent hours researching online to find a stroller that was lightweight but still offered the benefits of a full-size stroller, namely a snack tray and at least some storage space. We already had a little Kolcraft umbrella stroller for the car but I wanted something less cumbersome than my Graco Vienna to keep in the house for strolls around the neighborhood.

While I can't do a full-scale Trader Joe's run with this stroller the way I could with my old Graco, this one is about half the weight and that's especially noticeable when pushing my toddler uphill. I also love the idea of the carry strap--I haven't used it yet but if we go on a bus anywhere it will make the trip even easier. There are a few downsides (I think every stroller has some), but I am very pleased with my choice and would recommend this stroller highly.

Pros:
- really lightweight!
- seat fabric is soft and well-padded (much nicer than most strollers), my son loves sitting in it
- snack tray! (I don't know why so few lightweight strollers have this)
- detachable stroller pack is really convenient
- carry strap
- storage space is decent for a lightweight stroller
- stylish look, not cutesy like other strollers
- easy to put together

Cons:
- it's not really a one-handed fold (but it is an easy two-handed fold and the extra tri-fold is nice)
- no parent cupholder (though the stroller pack can easily hold a bottle of water or a closeable plastic coffee tumbler)
- steering one-handed is sometimes difficult

Fabulous stroller!!!
After looking for an eternity for the "right" light weight stroller, I was ready to give up when I accidentally came across the Combi Flex. I bought it without even trying it out in stores and I am so glad I did! I love almost everything about it! It's SUPER light weight and folds down in half and then half again! It will hold a child up to 55lbs despite it being a light weight stroller. Although I know my child will out grow using a stroller before she's anywhere near that limit. That said, there are a few things I wish were better. The canopy needs to be larger and the seat back would be excellent if it sat more upright. Also, if you are a taller person, say 5'8 or taller, it might feel a bit short. Other than that, I think it's perfect! I does take some time to get used to a Combi stroller. A lot of people may say it feels cheap, or not sturdy, but it's the tri-fold design that makes it seem this way. Beacause it folds down twice, there are more joints in this stroller than others. It was designed to be slim and light weight and that is exactly what this stroller is. If you are so tired of lugging your large, overweight travel stroller as I was, but want all the features we've gotten used to, give this one a try. The more I use it, the more I am so happy I bought it.

Happy Mama
I ordered this as a replacement for my Combi city savvy all weather stoller that my husband and 5 year old killed while racing at Ala Moana. There are stress points on Combi strollers that cannot be fixed once broken- I called customer service, warranty, super glue, welding tools, you name it. This is the second Combi stoller to die due to the beloved men in my life racing although the deaths happened three years apart and I guess that is why everyone forgot to take care of the strollers. I guess I just need to ban the older children (husband included) from use (abuse). I loved my other stroller and knew that in order to feel the same love, I would have to get a high quality Combi. The low end ones work great too, but I like the extended visor and the general sturdiness of the higher quality Combis. It is noticeable and Amazon has a great price on it as they are selling it at the local baby store for $130 more. Feel confident that you are buying a solid albeit lightweight stroller that you will use for years as long as my husband doesn't his hands on it.
