Petite Star Zia Pushchair - no alternative to Quinny
Petite Star Zia PushchairI bought this pushchair not long after it was launched in September 2007 as it was lightweight for my holiday. However, before anyone else makes a decision to buy one, PLEASE BEWARE! The wheels frequently come off when walking down the pavement or crossing the road due to a fault in the design. The manufacturer's have dangerously placed a 'quick release' button for the wheels only 2 inches from the ground so any bump in the ground or going up and down curbs knocks the wheels completely off.I chose the Petite Star Zia as it was advertised on ebay as being like the Quinny Zapp but with recline and for 99.99 I thought it was worth a try. I was wrong - the quality is no match to a Quinny product and after using for 2 months it fell to bits!
