Mothercare Spin Pram & Pushchair System

Loved this pram! – I purchased the spin when my second child was born. we had not liked the Valco we bought the first time and there were certain things i wanted from my second pram. I wanted a pram that could face forwards and backwards with out having to take it off and turn it round - i wanted just 1 seat so i could flatten the seat if my baby was sleeping - i wanted an easy to collapse pram. The spin did all this and i loved it! It was so easy to turn the baby round when we were in cafes etc and once she was older and in the seat configuration it was fantastic to be able to undo the straps under the seat and turn it into the flat bassinette with out having to take her out the pram or change the seat! I was very happy with the product and would and have recommended it to anyone. easy rear and forward facing mechanism, only having 1 seat instead of having to change between 2.

Great when it works – The features are fantastic when they work however I've had to take it in twice already, which means 2 times where I haven't had use of this pram, was given a replacement but not the same thing. 1st time they replaced the frame because the spin mechanism didn't work and the one hand collapse was sticking, second time they gave me a whole new one, this time the collapse mechanism was sticking, about to take it back again for the same reason. Spin mechanism great for when bub wants to look out or look at you without having to take the pram apart. Spin and one handed collapse mechanise keeps failing

Not as good as expected..all luxury features and essentials are not up to scratch!! – The spin pram was really good at first but went downhill fast. The seats are not stable as they wobble and in bassinette mode, my son always slided to the bottom end. I used the maxi cosy capsule instead. When my son was older and we changed to the seat mode, it is inpractical to change the seat from flat when he falls asleep as it is almost impossible to change it back to seat mode while he was still in it.

At 8 months old, my son is now too big for the seat entirely and am having to purchase another pram all together..not because he is too heavy, but at only 75cm tall his legs not longer fit due to the non-adjustable foot rest. Great spin feature, can attach capsule, very narrow with great turning circle, easy folding (can get stuck sometimes), comes will bootcover/sleeping bag and raincover. Tiny basket, unstable/wobbly seat, baby slides to bottom in bassinette mode, footrest very short (only lasted my baby until 8 months old), small weight capacity (15kg max), need to remove seat to fold so need large boot for both chasse and seat.

Love it! Fabulous design! – I bought this pram yesterday and I love it. It has everything you need that you would pay so much more for in other brand names. (I already have 4 prams so on baby nber two, I knew what features I needed!) I was so incredibly impressed about the Spin mechanism and the recline into a fully flat bassinette. So practical, easy to use and just fab, fab, fab. Didnt find the hood ‘noisy’ and the quality of the fabrics and the chassis is wonderful. I love it has adjustable height handle (am only 5 feet tall but partner taller!) Plus Mothercare give a two year warranty. I loved the fact that it had hard wheels, reversible forward-facing/rear-facing feature in one swift movement (great if in tight spots or cafe and you need to feed baby or simply turn them towards you!), full flat recline option without needing a separate bassinette (wow, wow, wow!) and it can be used with their capsule. Fabulous!!! Thank god I didnt pay another $400 and get the Silver Cross Surf which although I loved, means you need to physically lift seat to reverse it and tiny basket and to be honest, I would be paying for a brand name which although very good, was not necessary for me. This Mothercare Spin pram is fantastic value and I would certainly recommend it to anyone! I previously had a Chilcare Reversible handle pram, Steecraft Cruiser (which broke twice as was faulty) and then a Roger Armstrong for my toddler (which I still for rough trips off roading and I do love it!!) and then a Emotion stroller from Babyhome from Madrid and a basic umbrella stroller. So I definitely know which features I used most from all of the prams and have them all in one pram now! Wahey!!! Reversible in one spin, turns into bassinette by pulling some straps down so goes completely flat, height adjustable handle and hard wheels, price and quality are excellent.
