Bob Motion 3
3 reviews
Wish I had shopped around more – Bought this when I was pregnant with my first but I wish I had researched prams better. Paid $450 for the pram only, didn't get capsule etc, and thought I was making a good investment. Have since discovered you cannot jog with the pram, thought my pram just had the issue but have now learned that 2 friends with the same pram all feel rickety motion like a wheel is about to fall off when doing a light job. it cannot be used with any toddler attachments so is not great for future proofing. The seat has little to no padding, I had to spend money on extra inserts to make this comfortable for my daughter and to stop her head tilting into the side of the pram. The straps I swear have a mind of their own and each time I put my daughter in have had to readjust them, regardless of it being a week or an hour out of the pram. The underneath storage basket is difficult to access and is only really good to a keep a blanket or 2, I had to hand my nappy bag over the handle bar and purchased hooks attachments of ebay for my pram to carry any shopping. I will say that it is easy to keep clean & extremely easy to fold up and down. Now pregnant with my second child and I am having to look at second hand prams that can do a better job as this pram is no good for daughter or baby #2. Please research your pram before buying, I wish I had :(
Hard to find something to complain about! – So easy to maneuver, light and rolls very smoothly. I would recommend not inflating the tyres too much, just medium otherwise they are susceptible to punctures. Easy to fold and open and I find holding onto the side of it to carry is easiest. Aside from that this is a good sturdy and reliable product.
Loads of room but so Compact! – The smallest of the BOB range, but still has a large seat with plenty of room. Comparing it to the Mt Buggy Swift, which was our original choice until we saw the Motion, It is narrower at the wheels by about 2cm, had better ventilation because the entire rear back flap could be rolled up, larger sunhood, much bigger seat, great suspension (Swift had none), comes with Safe & Sound Unity adaptors, one hand fold which is awesome and was $100 cheaper.
2 best features: very spacious & compact easy fold. We were blown away with the value of this pram, loads of accessories to choose from, even has a snack tray available.
