Default Zooper Twist?

Does anyone have this? Do you like it? I'm wondering if it's a good replacement for my Mac Volo, since the Twist seems to have a much better canopy, and can also recline.

TIA!

My Twist is 2 1/2 years old, so maybe the newer ones are better. But, as much as I loved my older Twist's features (included accessories, nice recline, leg rest, big hood), it was really hard to push and steer once its occupant weighed more than 20 lbs.

After 1 year, I got so sick of trying to maneuver my Twist that I bought a Maclaren Quest. Which was more expensive, included nothing extra, and weighed more...But, it easily steers one handed, even on rough surfaces.
So 1 free hand for older siblings (or baby in the sling). And much much less tiring. And does have the leg rest, adequate hood, and okay recline (so much more comfortable than the Volo).

I'd make sure I could try one of the newer Twists IRL, with a good sized toddler on board. If the steering is better now, it's a lot of bang for the buck.

Good luck
