Valco Baby Snap Questions & Answers

Is this pram suitable for jogging?
Hi! We have a Valco baby snap 3, which has been great but its quite old. The brake cable on one side recently snapped and one of the wheels is in permanent brake position as the spring-connected metal rod is locked in one of the brake holes. I have removed the wheels and disconnected the axel part of the pram with the snapped brake cable, but can't remove/open up the part at the wheel end to get rid of the spring. Is there any chance I can replace this part for a reasonable price? Thanks.

Is the foot rest for valco baby snap 3 adjustable?
From memory I don't think it is Our son is 4 now we no longer have it sorry
Hi Bing,
Thanks for your questions.
Our Snap 3 model from mid 2018, has an adjustable footrest.
My 14mo baby keeps tipping / rocking forward in the valco snap. He thinks its a fun game because the back of the seat doesnt seem to be secured and he is able to lean quite far forward, bringing the entire seat with him. Does anyone else have this problem or have i got a probelm with the set up?
I didn't have this problem but I did see a tip once for strollers that tip to put leg weights you know the valcro ones people strap around their legs. And put these around the just above the wheels.

Hi yes they also have bassinets available but the pram itself is fully layback
Hi there, is the snap a jogging pram?
Hi no not really
In that it has rubber tyres not inflated.
Hope that helps

Does the Snap Sports pack (Air filled tyres) fit the Valco Baby Snap ( 3 Wheeled Stroller). When I checked the product page of Sports Pack, it is mentioned the compatible models are Snap Ultra, Snap 4 and Snap Duo. But In the Snap Stroller page, the accessiories section Snap Sports pack is shown as a compatible accessory. Can some one confirm this please.
Hi Srida, I do apologise our website is in the process of being updated. The Snap did come with Sports wheels but unfortunately, these are no longer in-stock you may be able to track down some second hand. The Snap 4 Sports wheels are not compatible.
Hi can you buy replacement bumper bars?
Hi j_crompo thanks for the question :) It will depend what the customer service team has in stock for spare parts. If you call them on 03 9581 8000 they will try and assist you.
I just bought the valco baby snap 3, and once it was assembled I took it for a try out on our floorboards, and it has a distinct wobble.
I tried on the carpet and then again on the floor boards not pushing vigorously, just a slight push and it wobbles incredibly bad.
I took it apart and tried again and still the same..
It is the front wheel that seems to be the issue. Is it a normal thing for this pram? Or is it defective because I'm unable to use it with my baby.
Thanks
I cant say i had that problem. I would contact them, you may be missing a small part or something.

What is the difference between the Snap and Snap LX? Thanks
Hi Samsyd8, the Snap LX comes with a removable hood you can choose the colours for and an adjustable footrest when compared to the older Snaps. There are only limited colours available in the hoods and the Snap is now with an adjustable hood, so there was a different previously but this is getting smaller.
Does the valco snap 3 come with any extras like a cup tray, rain cover ect.
Does it face forward and rearward ?
What age does it go upto ?
No extras included. Needs to be purchased separately. Fwd facing only. We started using it once our son turned 1 but the material is very slippery so he keeps sliding sideways or downwards.
Hi Hayleylouise, thanks for your questions. No the Snap does not have a reversible seat, it is only forward facing. You can get universal accessories to fit such as the cup holder, there is also a snack tray, mirror mesh and storm cover that will fit this pram. The pram is from newborn up to 20kg.
How do you fold it down
Grey button on handle bar and grey snap lock on side of frame, then a quick flick one peice fold down mechanism. Then lift into car. Its super easy once you find the buttons.
