This is a wonderful stroller. I'm so glad I took a chance and ordered it, sight unseen.
br /
br /I ordered the red version, which is much snazzier in person than on the Amazon picture.
br /
br /It is fairly lightweight - much lighter than our Graco model, but heavier than those cheap little umbrella strollers, nice and sturdy. But it folds up in an umbrella fashion, so it won't take up too much room in your trunk and could be carried, if necessary.
br /
br /It comes with neat things like a rain cover, sun shade, and cold weather boot. The rain and shade covers are neatly contained in an attachable pouch and the boot fits easily in the stroller's basket.
br /
br /The canopy has a window, provides lots of shade, and is even partially removable to let the breeze run through on a balmy day. Coolest of all, it has a built in mesh pouch that doesn't take up any room but still manages to hold everything I need: sunscreen, hand sanitizer, wallet, keys, cell phone, and sunglasses. It's stretchy mesh, so if you don't have anything it just lies flat against the hood. But it does have a plastic lining, so it's waterproof! Also, it zips, so your things can't fall out and aren't accessible to your two year old, either.
br /
br /The basket is large enough for a medium sized diaper bag, although a small bag would fit best, especially if you want to keep the boot in there.
br /
br /The best part is that everything is snazzy. Everything looks nice, the materials feel great, and it's well designed. The parts that should be removable/washable are.
br /
br /It's a snap to put together (took just a couple of minutes) and everything locks into place in a smart way. It's very easy to fold and unfold. Also, it reclines beautifully and easily, including into a totally upright position. I became frustrated that my Graco model's most upright position was still too reclined for our one year old.
br /
br /The place where your child's legs hang down is neat. It is adjustable, so it could stick straight out, hang down, or even flip up for a very little one (maybe to use with the boot?)... Your kid won't get a weird stroller mark on the underside of their little knees.
br /
br /It has the newer style which I notice most new strollers seem to have where you only have to clip two things in to buckle a baby in. My Graco model (purchased last year) is such a complicated mess. You attach two things together on one side, two things together on the other side, then connect each side into the center. Arg! My son almost always fussed by the time I'd finished. Also, he was always sitting on one of the straps, which easily became twisted. My husband STILL has not figured out how to do this quickly. :) So this is a big improvement.
br /
br /It's also comfy! I can't vouch for that myself, of course. But my son settles down into it and looks perfectly comfortable. With the Graco model, he ended up with his legs flung over one side of the tray and if he wasn't tightly belted in he slouched down a lot.
br /
br /A few minor imperfections about the Zooper Twist.
br /
br /The cupholder is a mesh bag attached to the handle. It works well for a standard water bottle or something, but one of those giant mall-sized beverages might not be so great. You can easily remedy this by investing in a good quality cup attachment, if that is important to you.
br /
br /This stroller is great for me - I'm 5'5. It would be nice if the stroller handles were adjustable.
br /
br /This isn't a jogging stroller. It does offer a nice feature where you can lock the front two wheels so they do not swivel, which makes going over rough surfaces safer and easier to manage.
br /
br /This isn't the kind of stroller that is going to hold everything but the kitchen sink, if you are looking for that kind of stroller. There isn't a cup and snack tray for your child. No clock.
br /
br /This is just the greatest stroller and I'm so glad to dump our awful Graco stroller. Hated. that. thing. This is snazzy, well designed, handy, lightweight, convenient, and offers everything we need!

This is a great little stroller for me as I am in Japan where you really need a stroller that fits in small spaces. The stroller is very sturdy but light which is great for quick trips in and out of the car. The recline is good for my 4 month old but I did put a neck insert in for extra support when she falls asleep. The basket is decent size for this size of stroller(will fit small purse or diaper bag). It folds very nicely and has the handle on the side for carrying. Another thing I like about it is that the canopy is hugh and covers my daughter completely. I love the fact that it comes with all the accessories too! I really don't have any complaints exept that the handles don't adjust so a taller person might say that they are too short(I'm only 5'2"). Overall I would recommend this stroller to anyone.
OH MY GOSH!

I had a weekend trip to Chicago and wanted a great travel stroller. My son never wants to stay in a stroller, not too mention I knew he would have to nap in it, so it had to be a good one. My son is not even 2 yet and weighs 32 lbs and is very tall, so that too was a concern.
br /Well... I was soooooo glad I got this. He LOVED it and not ONCE cried abotu being in it, PLUS he slept great in it! The extra calf support was so wonderful!
br /The basket under it is kinda crappy but it was never an issue.
br /I would recommend this stroller 100% PLUS!

I have been searching for a light weight stroller for about a month now and after looking everywhere I found the Zooper Twist online. I was a little hesitant because there was only 1 review on it and I could not locate it in a store to see for myself. I am so happy that I went with my instincts and purchased it. I love it!! The features on it are great and it's so light!! It is so easy to carry and it comes with a handle that's attached to the side. It is also very easy to open close. It even came with a rain cover and a boot.I wanted something with good quality without spending a fortune. I couldn't believe the price on Amazon and for free shipping you couldn't beat it. The only thing that some people may not like is the basket being so small but if you can get past that I think it's a great stroller. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Great lightweight stroller with good canopy

This is a great, basic stroller. We used it to replace our Chicco stroller when the wheel broke off after only one year! This stroller is lightweight and has a much better canopy than the other umbrella strollers I've seen, so my son has much better sun protection. We use it every day and it's great. If you're tall, the handles might be too low for you, and the wheels are smaller so it's not as easy to manuever as some other strollers I have, but the straps are easy to use and my son loves it and begs to go in it!
