Help- I saw a great looking pushchair but can't find it......called a 'combi'?

[ZombiePlanB]

I saw a couple with a very light, small frame rearfacing buggy. I asked them what make it was and they said 'combi' and it was written on the side.

Now I have searched the web but can't find it. I can find front facing ones but I really want a rear facing one.

Anyone know what it is or better still, have one?

oooh fraid i don't but it sounds awesome so am googling on your behalf and bumping for you coz i want one too!

it wasn't the cosato cabi was it?

Hello! No, it was much smaller than that. It resembled a mini chameleon with four tiny wheels. The Combi website looks like it but they don't mention if any buggies are rear facing.

Was it this?

I have that carseat and it is fabulous but I don't think you can get it in this country (got it in the US).

Lets.........no it wasn't that one either, as it didn't have the carseat into , but a proper seat. thanks though!

I was in Hyde park so maybe they were tourists and I just won't be able to find it

I thought the pram-experts of mumsnet would know.

This type? There are others on the website that are also rearfacing. I want one.
Another is the Bumbleride Flyer but it is not sold in the UK either.

oooooooh I want one of them! Sigh. Lets get loads of mumsnetters to demand they start importing some!

Check on ebay. I had a great lightweight (forward facing) Combi stroller that I bought brand new on there. Have also seen second hand Combi strollers so you may find the model you are after.

Oh man, that is it!!!!! Tabitha8 thank you. I want one . They look brilliant. Why can't they make them here?

com.hk..............yes the couple looked hongkongese.

Right, off to ebay. Failing that will email the company and report back.

One step ahead of you mate! None on eBay and emailed company! Hehe!

I have a pal whose wife is Taiwanese and they stick em there I think so I may try bribery and corruption for their next trip!

well I have found something on ebay....

here

but no feedback stars, dare we risk it?

I love the look of the Combi...I've a Graco Citisport and M&P Aria which are very similar in design but obviously only forward facing...Be interested to see if you get a reply...My DD loved the look of it as well, she's 17 months!!!

I daren't -my husband will leave me! But you feel free to be the guinea pig .
am getting a bebe comfort loola instead I think.

that looks like a really nice pushchair, the only thing is the weight. Why do all rear facing buggies weigh so much?

This is the Aprica brochure.
Pushchairs begin on page 58. Not sure these are the same as on Ebay, but they look lovely.
Check out the shoes as well. Very cute.
Their products are for sale in the UK but, perhaps, not their pushchairs?

Oh I gave up and got a second hand Bee. So far it is great. Thanks for all your help tho

Well I had a reply from Combi:

But yeah a second hand bee is the way to go.

oh no- i want a combi now!!

I love the way the Combi folds up.
It's comical, isn't it? We know they are not available here. The question is why not? Perhaps they don't meet our safety stds?
I've just emailed them to ask.

That catalogue is so cool! I did not know I needed a Fendi pushchair but it turns out that I do.

Milan used to be minibreak territory.............boo hooooooo.

I bet they cost a fortune
