Chicco Bravino Plus vs Zoe Tour V3
The Zoe Tour V3 is the lighter stroller by 6.5 lb, 14.5 lb against the Bravino Plus's 21 lb, and $19 more at $299 against $280. The Bravino Plus folds to 16 x 20 x 28.3 inches with one hand and stands; the Tour is 26.75 x 21.75 x 10. Chicco's Plus has a lie-flat pramette seat with a removable insert, four recline positions and a handlebar reaching 41.5 inches, and takes KeyFit seats natively. Zoe includes an infant cocoon, a 10 lb basket, a 60 lb limit against 50 and a two-year warranty, and sells adapters for Mesa, Pipa, SnugRide and KeyFit separately. A KeyFit family gets the car seat carrier without buying anything, and that is the Chicco's best argument; on weight, child limit and warranty the Tour is ahead.
Folded, the Zoe Tour V3 makes a 3.37 cu ft box to the Chicco Bravino Plus's 5.24 cu ft. Neither fits a 22 x 14 x 9 in carry-on sizer: the Chicco Bravino Plus misses by 7 in and the Zoe Tour V3 by 7.75 in. The Zoe Tour V3 is 6.5 lb lighter by its maker's figure (14.5 lb to 21 lb). The Chicco Bravino Plus is newborn-ready as sold; the Zoe Tour V3 needs a bassinet, insert or infant car seat for the first months. Chicco KeyFit / Fit2 seats click straight onto the Chicco Bravino Plus; every seat listed for the Zoe Tour V3 needs an adapter.
