Bargain Quinny Senzz alert! (great alternative to bee+ or umbrella fold)

Bargain Alert Quinny Senzz very much discounted direct from the manufacturer Here NEW in the boxes - a fab alternative to the Bee+ or an Umbrella fold for your urban trips.
I found some good reviews online and it seems to suit even very large children. (although as usual weight limit is set at 15kg in the UK as that is the max uk testing goes up to - but in the USA it's 50lbs....). suitable from 6 months as a buggy or from birth with car seat or carrycot attachments.
Just thought I'd share as who isn't on a budget these days? x

My Ds is 93cm (3y old) and its good for him, so my answer would be yes.
I had a zapp for my daughter, which was fab to push, but the senzz feels more sturdy, has a decent basket, and a recline for naps. Unless I specifically needed a very tiny fold like that on the zapp, then the senzz makes a comfortable alternative.

I am not a fan :( The Senzz is very much a shopping centre pushchair. Unlike the B-Agile DD (almost 3) wouldn't keep her feet on the footrest and thus kept stopping the wheels. Grr!
It was annoyingly, for a lightweight stroller type pushchair, a two handed push partly because the fold button is right in the centre and if I held one handed on either side then it veered off in that direction!
At first I didn't mind the flat handle but later on I did! It's not comfy! But it's a good height.
There are some great design features though like the fold (although it's a tad tricky to tip onto the back wheels to start the fold), the wind breaks, the recline. The basket is shallow but took my bag.
I tried to remove the seat to try the car seat on and gave up. There's four clips on the sides and then several at the back that I couldn't undo - so it's not a quick switch between modes like the Zapp Xtra.
I ended up asking DD to get out 2/3rds of the way into our walk and she walked which made the Senzz easier to push! It's not really the idea though!
I am glad I have tried one but it's already back in the box. The B-Agile was tons better apart from the low handle - oh and the rocket speed recline which scared the life out of my baby! I need to practise a slow seat let down!!

So far Ds is sitting v nicely in his senzz so no trailing feet on floor! That would really bug me I don't think its occurred to him to try that. Yet!
I quite like mine, I find its not so bad a push on normal paths, and the suspension is good. I do wish the swivel lock worked then it would be nicer to push on the school run, its not terrible but just could be better if I could lock those wheels off. I find the steering slightly lighter than the bjcm.
How did you find the harness Tiggy?

The harness was huge on my 3 year old. I am not going to put my 14 month old in there.
