anyone have the combi twin savy?

I'm currently looking for a new stroller. Ebay has the Combi twin savy sport that i am currently bidding on b/c i had talked to another twin mommy and she loved hers. Does anyone else have expereince with this? is it worth it?

 

I like ours. I have had it for over a year. Seems a bit flimsy but it has held out well. I love the way it trifolds and takes up so much less space in my van. I bought mine on ebay too.

 

We've had ours almost 2 years now and I love it! It takes up 1/2 the space of the duoglider and has really held up well. We got ours on strollerdepot.com and got $100 off w/ free shipping (was a close out color, but we liked it anyway!)

 

I've had my for over a year and have been really pleased with it. It has held up thru all my day to day errands and many trips, including one to Disney. It folds up nice and isn't really heavy. I think you would be happy with it.

 

I like mine real well! Only thing, is that is doesn't travel well on any surface that isn't hard...ie: grass, dirt etc. I know most people don't travel in the dirt, but we went camping and it was real hard to get around in. It is definately a city stroller and not an off road stroller.

 

I LOVE mine. Does the sport have cupholders though? I have the older version before they made two versions and it has big shades and cupholders for the kids. I definitely recommend getting the cupholders!

ugh no cup holders here but i'll deal, we throw them anyways and end up sittin with them beside us.....rather the boys do....lol... i ended up getting it for 137 on ebay - not bad comapred to the stores. But i'm going to buy the stroller pack when i have the money that comes with the cup holders and stuff....

Thanks for all the great reviews! i had talked to a lady at OUAC and she loved hers and it turned me to the sbs b/c we had the graco duoglider.....still do but the boys arent working out well with it...

Don't waste your money on that! It's a waste. I've never used it. It's too small!

 

Sorry I got here late, but have to say I LOVE my stroller!

 

Thanks for posting this! I'm about to buy one, but people who have never used it keep trying to talk me out of it!

 

quick question about this stroller:

Do the seats sit straight up or is it always at an incline. This is specifically why I'm looking for a second stroller. I have a jogging stroller but I don't like the fact that they are always leaning back and that their knees are always higher than their bottoms. I can't imagine that it's comfortable for them to sit like that for long periods of time. They also can not see on the sides very well and they can't see each other.

 

We bought one used and only spent $100. Personally, I wouldn't have spent more on it. I love the compact/lightweight aspect of it, but it's very flimsy and has not held up well at all! The stroller was in great condition when we got it and now it seems like it's falling apart and we rarely use it as our girls prefer to walk. I also agree that it's not good on grass or rough surfaces. It is what it is, but I would definitely not say it's a great stroller. JMHO

 

If you only use it to do indoor things, its great! However it does poorly on uneven surfaces and even worse on grass.

 

I like mine! I push it to the limit too! And it does go over rough terrain (with my kids bouncing all over the place though ), but it has held up for me. The seats do not sit up completely, but my kids do so it hasn't been a problem. Got mine new on ebay for about $130 with shipping included and I bought the one with the cupholder in the front.

[SIZE=14pt]Love my Combi, but GET THE CUPHOLDERS!!! It's worth the extra $$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/SIZE]

 

I LOVE my Combi. We've used it almost every day for about 2 years, and it is still in tip-top shape. It is bumpy when you go on grass or dirt, but it's not really a problem, and actually my girls enjoy bouncing around "off roading" as my husband calls it. They laugh their heads off whenever it's bumpy. I do use the stroller pack (but not to hold my own drink, because that doesn't work, but for keys/sunglasses/cell phone/etc.) and honestly we almost NEVER use the cupholders. We use them VERY occasionally to hold snacks. We don't tend to carry sippies around with us, though, we do them just at meals.

 

I LOVE my Combi. I bought the cupholder, thing but I haven't used it yet...I am hoping soon.
I would agree that it is not meant for off-road. I have a jogger for trails and stuff. I did hear that if you have problems with the wheels you can new ones, by contactin the company. We have not had to do this, but I heard this from another twin mom.

 

I have lOVED my twin savvy since I got it- I used it from the time they were infants.
That said, my boys aren't particularly big or anything, but now that they are over 2, they just don't tolerate it. They don't sit up straight enough, they can unsnap the harnesses, and it seems HEAVY now that there is 60+ pounds in it.
It's a great stroller, but it is getting to be less and less so the bigger my boys get.

 

I have one and have really enjoyed how light it is. I do think it is a little flimsy but it works great for mall trips etc. I did see something the other day and thought...hmmm, wished I had known about this when I bought the combi. It is the babyplanet unity twin stroller. It is very similar to the combi but everyone has raved about how easy it is to steer with one hand and it has this "groovy" design for extra room while walking behind it. Also, every part of the stroller can be recycled. They will even send you a shipping bill to send it back when you are done and they will recycle it for you. I thought that was really cool. HTH!

 

I'm on my second combi. I love it. In fact when my first one snapped, and I was looking at strollers, none of them even came close to the combi.
I wound up getting a brand new combi ex for $68 due to the the broken stroller being out of warranty but used for less than a year.

Last week I was at the mall with a friend. We grabbed lunch in the food court. I was having a hard time with the tray, soad and stroller. My friend pulled my combi while pushing hers. SHe could not get over how smooth it was.
