Product Description

Multi-award winner Zia ticks all the boxes for modern multi-tasking parents with its lie-back seat, so-easy fold and feather weight all wrapped up in a beautiful contemporary design. Weighing in at an astonishing 6.3kg we believe that Zia is one of the lightest, most stylish from-birth strollers on the market. Gorgeous to look at and a delight to handle, Zia's no-nonsense fold is simplicity itself. Once folded, Zia is so compact it fits perfectly into the smallest car boot or stores away neatly in the tiniest space. The contemporary aluminium frame makes Zia really stable, and its comfy padded reclining seat is perfect for nap-time

Reviewer: Impgreene,

I bought this buggy because we needed a buggy to take on holiday and our Bugaboo Bee wouldn't compact enough.

I wish I had bought this pushchair first, because it is much much better than the Bugaboo, and that cost over £400.

The positive's are:
- it can be used from birth (like a Bugaboo), which means you don't need to buy a new buggy after 9-12 months
- it is easy to fold and collapses in seconds (the Bugaboo is a real hassle to collapse)
- once collapsed it is extremely compact and small; great for keeping in the boot of your car (I bought the Bugaboo because it was very small when collapsed, but this is much smaller)
- it is very light and easy to carry
- you can steer this with one hand, and it is very manoverable

On some of the points raised by others:
- I can see the point that for a tall person (well over 6') would cause a problem - I am 6' and it just works for me, but if I were more than 2" taller it wouldn't
- also, the basket is small, pointless and impossible to access when the seat is slightly reclined
- the build quality isn't as sturdy as a £400 buggy (but then, if it falls apart, you can buy 3 or 4 for the same price)

So, most people would consider the Bugaboo Bee the best compact buggy (in terms of size, weight, manouverability), and this beats it hand's down - and for less than 1/3 of the cost.

It has a few minor issues, but for the cost it's brilliant.
Terribe. worst purchase I have made!

Hi,

After reading a lot of good reviews about this pushchair I decided to go ahead and buy it, after all, it was a very good price in comparison to others considering all of the accessories were included. However, here is what I found:

BAD POINTS:
- The raincover does not fit, if it is a windy day the bottom will continuously blow up off their feet, therefore it's pointless!
- Impossible to steer with one hand.
- The back rest is not ridged therefore baby slouches, my baby WILL NOT go to sleep in this at all but does go to sleep very easily in her original. She has just turned 2 and I have had it since she was 1 year 4 months.
- My husband is 6'2" and cannot push this for a length of time as it is so so low.
- On several occasions it has tipped over side ways when I have been trying to change direction on a tiny slope (the slope of the pavement as it joins the road). Luckily I caught it before it landed fully on the floor.
- Basket so small it is pointless and also impossible to access even if the seat is slightly reclined.
- No storage for items anywhere except the useless basket. A lot of other buggies have a drink holder or pockets down the back to hold things such as keys, phones, raincover.
- The cosy toes supplied does not fit for very long, my child out grew it a few months ago (a while before she turned 2). She is average height for her age. I suppose it could be used now but her feet would be squashed and she would be even more uncomfortable.

GOOD POINTS:
- It folds down quickly and very compactly.
- Cheapest available for a buggy that folds to this size that has all the accessories included.
- That's all.

Maybe I just bought a dodgy one, however, the wheel has now totally broken and it is impossible to steer it in a straight line, it was 8 months old when that occurred but the warranty is only for 6 months (I wonder why it's such a short warranty!!!!).
Compact and lightweight

I've had the Zia for a year now and still love it. Easy to fold and fits in any small car (mine has been in a corsa, micra, peugot 206 with no problems) Very easy to handle and reclines. My 2 year old sometimes has his nap in it without leaving the house. Can't access basket when reclined. Basket big enough for couple of nappies etc. Whole pushchair is too light to allow anything on handle bars but I use a rucksack change bag so not a problem.
Product recommended.

Reviewer: Shakil Rehman Shaikh,
We bought this for our first child, we did lot of research and after spending quite a lot time, we decided to buy this product for our child and we are very happy with our purchase and thanks to all parents who left their review over internet.

My child is very choose, if he doesn't like anything it means full-stop but thanks to God, he liked it and sit on it very comfortably.

Light weight (Not very light) but durable, good if you travel a lot.
Easy to fold.
Easy to move around.
Wheels are good enough for all surfaces.
Excellent pushchair - just what i wanted

Reviewer: N. Martin,
The main reason i chose to buy this pushchair is because it folds down really small and is very compact. It fits in the boot of my Ford Ka which is a bonus so now i dont need to put a pushchair on the front seet and get the seet all dirty. There is also room for a little bit of shopping in the boot when the pushchair is in. It is really easy to put up and down so now i dont look a fool trying to wrestle a pushchair.

I have found this pushchair really easy to push and steer. it is really good for getting up kerbs when you cross the road because there is only one wheel to lift up.

i am very pleased with this buy it was also a bonus as i didnt even have to alter the straps when i put my little boy in.
