The Yezz is Quinny's latest breakthrough concept in design, style, materials and folding technique.

The Yezz brings together all of those features into one superior stroller."

Strong, durable and easy to use, the Yezz makes the city your playground and features the sleek, notable European design of Quinny. Additional features include:
