I (Karen) participated in a Focus Group back in September for moms in/near various cities all over the world. I represented NY among a few other moms, on the final week we were told it was a focus group for Quinny strollers. I was told from the beginning I would be paid $40 gift card to Amazon when the community was completed with possibilities of prizes. Little did I know I would be selected to be among the moms to receive a new stroller! Who doesn’t love free stuff?
It is their lightweight travel in mind umbrella stroller, with a price tag of $279USD, a steep price for an umbrella stroller, but it keeps up with the Quinny reputation and price tags of being awesome and expensive. I received the Red Signa color and it took literally 3 minutes to set up, just add the seat on. Only complaints/issues is the ease of opening and closing, it is a bit stiff and take a minute to open/close, others reviewed this stroller with the same complaints. It is made especially for the urban communities and city life in mind, folding up to praticially nothing and with a strap to carry on your shoulder up stairs or down and onto buses, cities or trains.
