I bought the 2014 babyzen yoyo pram for my first daughter after we needed a 2nd pram for commuting and airplanes. While it worked, it was a good pram. light, so we could get around and so necessary for airplane travel. Here is the thing, I used the pram in total about 18 months as a back up pram for both of my children. Being nearly £400 you would want it to well made. After a while it was really wobbly in the steering. You had to firmly place both hands on the hand bar to keep it from flipping over or wildly steering off course. This can be quite exhausting. Especially when holding a coffee or holding your older child's hand. Maybe they have fixed this in newer models, but I've heard this from other mums too. Then, about a month ago, while coming home, my little daughter collapsed to the ground in the pram. The entire pram frame just broke apart. Luckily, we were close to home and even luckier the metal bars that sheered from the base didn't puncture her legs. The frame legs that broke were so sharp that they cut your finger to the touch. I contacted babyzen yoyo about this to report this as a safety fault. Their customer care was a joke. After contacting them 3+ times, with 0 response, I went through the company that I purchased it with, they got in touch with me and chased baby zen about it. Several days later their outsourced customer care department got in touch. They cited all of the safety standards that they adhere to and requested pictures. Which I sent and I will post here if photos are allowed. My daughter could have been seriously hurt and how can the frame of a pram just disintegrate like this? She was well within the weight limits. Anyway, after alot of annoying back and forth the company finally agreed to pick up the pram and 'see for themselves'. A month goes by, I hear nothing. Finally email them and they say that the fault is not covered under warranty (2yr warranty). Mine was expired, and it was. They offered 20% off a new frame. That's it. So I could buy another and risk the same thing happening again.
Look, faults happen, but we paid a lot of ££ for this pram and used it as a back up for a pretty short period of time - on and off for 18 months). My Uppa Baby Vista was used like a tractor and was in solid shape ready to be passed on to the next mum. The Yoyo just fell apart and was kind of a pain in the a* to push due to how wobbly it was. The company doesn't stand by the product when this happens and acted like they also could give a s$% about my claim. I looked on all the web forums and no bad review of yoyo exists. I think they must pay to have them deleted. Or this is the first one. Maybe newer models of the pram are better, but their customer service sucks and if their pram collapses to the ground while you are out on the street with your baby - they could care less. So now you know! There are other competitive airplane models our there now and I'd look into those much more affordable versions before investing in this pram. Chances it won't last and it is not worth the ££.
