I've read all of this thread and it's been extremely helpful! With regard to the zapp-vs-aria topic, which would u guys recommend for a newborn? Paul, I can see you've had both and would choose the quinny for your little fella now he's older. But, for a newborn- would you choose the aria as this can be reclined and used from birth, or would you choose to use quinny frame with car seat attached until 6months? sorry to ramble, but ARRGGHHHH- my head is spinning! Thanks x

We are very happy with our purchase... it has suited us well. However I'm not sure I'd recdommend it for high use situations... it does feel flimsy. But then It might last forever.

Thumbs up Got One!

Bought a Quinny Zapp based on the evidence in this thread, and Boy am I glad I did!

Fits in the boot easy peasy, and still loads of room (sort of) for all the usual cr@p

Ultra small, Ultra Compact, Ultra Manoueverable... Bit like the Mini.

Thanks Guys and Girls!

Sorry, only just saw this post. Personally, from birth, I'd go with the Aria.

I bought this too, and used it from birth with the Maxi Cosi car seat - it's been fantastic - don't have to risk waking my son up to get him into the pushchair. Only downside for me is there's no storage underneath, and it's worth getting the weights for the front as it can tip easily if you're into putting shopping on the handles.
