Parent reviews of the 4baby Rapid
- takes up little space wen folded
- bad to push
- bad, cheap materials
- no suspension
I wouldn't buy this model again.
- Large basket
- Lie flat seat
- Light weight
- None
Awesome.
- lightweight
- compact
- large basket
- can be put in full lie-flat
- non-adjustable handle
- not very good reclining system
Lightweight, compact, huge storage basket. What I specifically don't like is that it is only put in the lying position with the "drawstring" system, and also that you can't move the handle, so one trips over the brake.
- light
- well designed belts
- washable
- canopy can be pulled all the way down
- not suitable for worse terrain or cobblestones in the city (which I knew beforehand)
Great price, usually these types are quite expensive. I was also impressed with the colour scheme and it is very lightweight. The wheels are a problem for me, but they can be adjusted so they don't spin. When my son moves, the buggy goes sideways and is hard to steer.
- super easy to use
- weight is just over 6 kg
- smart
- quickly foldable
- spacious
- the turquoise colour is beautifully vibrant
- we are happy 😍
- occasional stumbling on the brake
- the top window bothers my little one, so we have a diaper draped over the top
Great stroller for the road, but also for moderate terrain. So far it has gone over everything 😀 Little one likes it. Super stroller at a super price, I recommend it 😊
- Large canopy against the sun
- Large storage basket
- Lightweight and compact for the car
- Insulated footmuff
- Adjustable handle, handle height 108 cm
- Smaller rattling wheels
- Not really suitable for winter
- Can't get into the basket when the backrest is reclined
We have had the stroller for about 2 weeks, so far so good. We needed a lightweight, nimble stroller for walking into town, which the 4baby Rapid is. In my opinion, it is definitely not suitable for winter because of the smaller wheels (they also rattle a bit). The height of the handle (108 cm) suits my height of 180 cm as well.
- ??? there are none
- It's small - max 80 cm, my 11 month old won't fit in it
- It rattles, it's about to fall apart
- In the sand and on the pebbles it'd rather break a wheel than go through it
- I've read it's up to 35 kilos... can't even carry 12
- Poor quality
I don't recommend it!!!
- canopy
- lightweightness
- quick to store
- terrible wheels
- the brake is in the wayping
- looks like it's about to fall apart
Best for quick tranfers, but not for permanent daily strolling. For short easy routes it's fine.
Quite nice. Spacious shopping basket and quite practical. However, more difficult to manage with heavier children.
- price
- large basket
- easy fold
- hard, no suspension can be felt
We bought the stroller for a holiday... and we still have it at my grandmother's. It's a fairly light, nimble stroller even for a larger toddler.
