Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Just got this stroller today. Really impressed with the huge canopy that goes down to the child tray, deep parent cupholders, large basket, one touch brake, and suspension.
Easy to fold - 3 steps - click button between parent cup holders, pull red strap above basket, push down on the handles. It's easier to stand the stroller up by itself folded if you lock the front wheels first, but you don't have to. The Inglesina Zippy is also this way.
NOT easy to unfold - 5 steps - press the safety button, use your foot to step down on the lever above the brake, use your hand to press down on the side of the stroller on the left and right sides, push down on the bar between the parent cupholders. This will take some getting used to. Since I only plan to take this on all day trips, where I will not need to fold and unfold more than one time, I am okay with the tedious unfolding process. I would get really annoyed with it if this was my everyday stroller.
The Cleo is very similar to the Inglesina Zippy as far as seat fabric and large canopy. The basket on the Cleo is bigger than on the Zippy, but the cross bar does get in the way a bit. The Zippy has this same problem. The Cleo only has a child tray, but the Zippy has a child tray and child bar. Both strollers have removable and washable seats, but the Zippy also allows you to remove the canopy to wash and the Cleo doesn't. The Cleo reclining mechanism feels cheap. It's just a strap and is a bit too reclined even when pushed up as far as possible. The Zippy reclining has a much easier to use lever that allows for 4 positions.
The major difference between the Cleo and the Zippy is the folding and price. Zippy really does have a one step fold and unfold, except it's easier to fold if you lock the front wheels first. The Cleo is a 3 step fold and 5 step unfold. However, is this worth hundreds of dollars more?
Some small surprises on the Cleo were the small zippered pouch in the canopy, 2 bottle holders and small velcroed pocket in the basket, and small pocket on the side of the seat for child to put small toys or tall sippy cups.
Even though this is a umbrella fold type stroller, it's heavy enough to not tip over if you have a diaper bag hanging on the handle bars. Also, even with my long strides, I don't kick the back wheels of the stroller like with the Zippy.
Update April 2010 - My two year old is getting a too wide and tall for this stroller. I got a Baby Jogger City Elite instead and she is much happier.
