After some Internet research, we decided for this buggy. The Joie brand is relatively new on the market and comes from Great Britain. Us the Name Joie was unknown prior to our research. On the Internet there is a manufacturer's site, which has been translated in German. Ultimately, this site was the impetus for our purchase of Litetrax. 3
For us important buying criteria were:
- Quickly and easily collapsible
- Acceptable weight
- Large shopping basket
- Large sun canopy
- Adjustable backrest
- Full-length handle
- Tested for harmful substances
The delivery arrived quickly, the structure of the stroller (if one can call it so ;-)) was very easy. Had only three wheels mounted (inserted) are. The first impression of the buggy is very high. The steering also works with child (11 months, 10.5 kg) very easily.
Now to our buying criteria:
quickly and easily collapsible
The buggy is actually collapse with a single handle, it is this merely a tab that is located in the seating area, and already pulled the buggy is folded.
acceptable weight:
The weight is for me as a man absolutely fine, my wife does not feel the buggy to be too heavy, but there are certainly lighter (quote). ;-))
Large shopping basket:
Although we live "in the village", but we do most of our shopping on foot, thus was eingroßer basket important to us. At first glance offers the basket enough storage space to stow purchases. (Practice test still follows). There, however, the first mini-minus when the stroller is in the sleeping position, you get only very poorly to the basket. However, since the backrest is adjustable, this should be no great problem. How does that translate into practice, I will report.
large sun canopy
The sun canopy is very big in our eyes and offers enough protection against the sun's rays.
adjustable backrest
The backrest is easily adjustable. The only very minor complaint; when the backrest is at the bottom (sleeping position) to get difficult at the basket. (See also "large basket")
continuous handle
Very subjective purchase criterion, but very important for us that the handle (handlebar, ...) is continuous.
tested for harmful substances
To this end, I can not say anything yet, but currently I have requested from the sellers and manufacturers (03/21/2015), if there is this test, investigations, etc.
Will occasionally update this review in order to document the medium and long-term usage ...
Conclusion:
So far we are satisfied with this top buggy ... (Stand 21.03.2015)
