I realize that many questions about Zoopers have been asked, but I'm suffering from pregnancy brain(lol) and don't want to do a search.Please bear with me-my question: Are Zooper strollers on the same level as Peg Peregos,MacLarens and so on? Or are they more like the cheaper brands like Evenflo and Graco?

I consider them luxury or upscale strollers for lack of a better word. Very sturdy, comfortable, and solidly built.

I have had a walk air for 1 year and just LOVE it.

Well, actually, Zoopers were designed as less expensive knock-offs of pricier European brands. They are mass-produced at a factory in Asia, the same as Evenflos and Gracos. Kidco is about on the same level. They were the former US distributors of Maclaren, and "copied" them at factories in Asia. That said, many people really like Zoopers and Kidcos. And since Maclaren and several other formerly European lines have also moved production to China, the quality line has become much murkier. To confuse matters even more, some European brands have split their lines, like Chicco and Quinny. They'll produce some models in CHina and market them at a lower price in the big chains, like BRU. Then, they'll do more upscale models at their European factories.

I consider Zoopers on par with Pegs etc.
