The Quinny Buzz, considered a high-end designer stroller, receives wildly mixed reviews. The futuristic design of the Buzz is distinguished by its tricycle shape (with a double wheel front and center) and a reversible seat (this version is also known as the Quinny Buzz 3 to distinguish it from the Quinny Buzz 4, which has two separate wheels in the front). While some reviewers find maneuvering easy, others say the Buzz is unsuited to rough terrain. A selling feature is the spring-assist unfolding mechanism, but some reviewers say closing the stroller requires a bit of effort. All agree that the Buzz is heavy and offers minimal storage. Although many parents seem to have bought this stroller based on its looks, in general they are very satisfied. If the Quinny Buzz is outside your price range and you want a stroller with more storage space, parents are very happy with the all-terrain Jeep Liberty Limited (*Est. $160).
The best review of the Quinny Buzz comes from one professional testing organization, which puts the stroller through its rigorous testing process. Dozens of strollers are reviewed, so it's easy to see how the Quinny Buzz stacks up against similar strollers. The Buzz is rated on safety, ease of use and maneuverability. User reviews are also plentiful at sites like Buzzillions.com and Amazon.com.
