For the price how can you go wrong, it is absolutely FULL FEATURED, besides a lot of features of the stroller itself, you get a uv shade cover, a raincover, and a cover for the legs (the boot; useful when it is cold). Easy to open and close, a breeze to push, I can even manage with one hand, baby is happy in it. Only wish it could recline with one hand. The two buttons you have to press to recline the stroller, get a bit stuck on ours, but maybe 'cos it is new. Even if I knew that would happen, I still would buy this stroller, it is something I can live with. It is almost half the price of the 2007 models, which only differ from the 2006 in color and fabric. The color though is not really what I expected from a teal, it is more of a dirty blue.

br /Update on October 23: We have used this stroller for 6 months now and it still works great, the recline buttons are still sticky but other than that everything it works fine. I do however wish that the seat was a bit higher. The seat is as low as the Maclaren triumph and Quest (I always compare the height when I see other strollers near ours) but the Peg Perego Pliko P3 (and maybe Pliko lite or Peg Perego Aria) have a higher seat and the plikos as well as the Chiccos (C5 or C6) have a MUCH smoother push. Personally I still would probably choose this stroller or possibly the Chicco C6 'cos of the much much lower price. The Chcco C5 only comes with a rain cover and does not come with all the accessories that this one comes with.

I have been using a Maclaren Triumph for the past 18 months, and have been envious of all the features my friends strollers had. What my stroller was missing? - a leg rest, window through the canopy, a greater sun shade, the ability to increase the recline thoroughly, are all found with the zooper twist, plus more. I love the matching boot, and that the accessories are included. I may go ahead and order a more structured cup holder cuz I dont trust the mesh one for coffee. Also, the wheels are smaller than what you might find on a more expensive stroller, so for longer walks you may want a nicer zooper model. Other than that, it is gorgeous, and perfect for mall walking/ shorter street walks. My friends now have stroller envy of me for a change, and thats fun. ;-)
Excellent, light, and durable stroller

We were looking for a durable umbrella stroller to take on our 2 week trip to Rome and London. After examining the Zooper Twist, Maclaren Triumph, and Inglesina Trip, we chose this because of the extra features (leg rest, rain cover, UV shade, boot, and viewing window in canopy) for a lower price. The Maclaren was easier to fold, included a shoulder strap, and seemed a little more durable but it cost more and lacked the previously mentioned features. The comparably equipped Maclaren would be at least $100 more.

br /We have a 17month old and a 3 1/2 old and purchased 2 of these because we felt it would be much easier to bring 2 compact umbrella strollers instead of a double stroller. Both strollers held up very well under extensive and harsh use (several hours a day including daily naps for the kids, over cobblestones, being bounced up and down numerous subway stairs, and being dragged on and off trains and buses).
br /
br /The compact fold allowed us to put the stroller in the airplane storage closets and allowed us to tuck the strollers in to various nooks and crannies at restaurants. The UV shade was a great bonus in Rome giving the kiddos shade in the hot sun. The raincover was great to have in London as the weather continually shifted from sunny to rainy. The leg rest proved far more useful in giving he kiddos a good napping position than I would have imagined.
br /
br /Although we have returned to suburbia and will probably move back to our suburban big stroller, I highly recommend the Twist as a great travel stroller or even a primary stroller for the more city living types out there.
br /
br /The only negatives we have are with the folding. The latch to hold the stroller closed sometimes slides on the wrong side of the frame. In order to ensure a good fold, we did need to use 2 hands.

The Twist is great for quick trips. It is very sturdy the rain cover UV shade are wonderful! I wish the seat reclined further so that it would be more comfortable for 3-4 month olds. It folds opens easily and is compact when folded. The color is great for a girl or boy!
Great Stoller

I did a lot research for an umbrella stoller and I accidently came across the Zooper Twist while I was checking on line. I have to say I'm soooo glad I took the chance and purchased this stoller. It's really light and sooo convieniet!! My son who is 16 months old likes this stoller better than my Bumbleride! I feel so much better when shopping because the stoller fits every where. The only thing I wish it did have was an adjustable canopy. It does come w/ a sun viser that you put over the entire front of the stoller but my son just plays w/ it and it comes off. Also, I wish the handles were adjustable for my husband he is
br /taller than me. Oh yeah a better cup holder but not a problem. I would highly recommend this stoller!! Very sturdy and well made too. It has all the comforts of a bigger stoller but compacted in a umbrella style. Which makes life a little easier.
