Obaby Zynergi Zoom Seat Units x2

Comfort

The Zynergi Zoom includes 2 seat units, both of which are very comfortably padded and feature a padded 5-point safety harness. Both seats also come complete with a padded bumper bar, which can be easily removed.

The Zoom seat units can be positioned in any possible combination to suit you and your children. For example the can both be forward facing, rearward facing or facing into each other….you will be spoilt for choice!

The Seat units both come with generous sun canopies/hoods to shade both your children

Travel System Compatible

One of the best features about the Zoom tandem is that you can have two newborns on the same system…perfect for twins. The Obaby Zoom can be used in combination with the Obaby Zynergi Carrycots, Obaby Zynergi Rider Car Seats or with the Maxi Cosi CabrioFix Car seat and Obaby Cabrio car seat adaptors.

The seat units, carrycots and Rider car seats can fit in any direction on the chassis. If you have twins you can have two carrycots or two car seats on the chassis, or if you have 1 baby and 1 toddler, you can have fit 1 carrycot and 1 seat unit in any direction…the options are endless!

Practicality

The Zoom features a large shopping basket which runs almost the length of the chassis. The basket is large enough to fit two changing bags.

The Obaby Zoom raincover is not included without the pushchair, but is available to purchase separately

A single bar adjustable foam handle makes the zoom comfortable to push for smaller or taller parents. The handle height ranges from 90cm to 105cm.

Folding and Unfolding

You may thing that tandem buggies are going to be very tricky and cumbersome to fold, with the Zoom this is not the case. The Zoom is very compact for a tandem buggy once folded, still leaving you with space in your car boot for all that shopping!

To fold the Zoom you must first remove both seat units from the chassis, which only takes a few seconds to do. Then simultaneously lift up both grey levers on either side of the chassis frame, whilst pressing your foot onto the central support bar at the rear of the buggy…pushing the handle bar forwards to collapse the buggy.

Manoeuvrability

The Zoom is so effortless to steer with its foam comfort handle and front lockable swivel wheels. When you encounter bumpy or uneven terrain such as cobbles, grass or sand, simply lock the front wheels into their fixed position for easy pushing. For smoother terrain and around the town place your wheels into swivel mode.

The Zoom is great for around the shops, as it is no wider than a normal single pushchair…just longer.
