Great pram – Pros: sturdy, handles beautifully, great on uneven terrain, big seat accommodates tall babies, huge basket, looks great, option to fold in one piece (Front facing mode only), outstanding quality. Baby is very comfortable. Cons: two-handed recline, you lose the basket when you add the second seat, huge when folded (keeps same footprint just loses… Read more · 1
height) and takes up all of boot (although this is to be expected given lovely big seat/basket/wheels), visor doesn't extend as much as competitors (UV shade is expensive and should, I think, be a standard feature), only 3 recline positions. Great if you walk a lot - I hardly ever use the car anymore for groceries.
It’s a rust bucket – My pram is 4 years old and all it’s nuts and bolts are rusting and it does not allow the pram to work correctly. I contacted the company but they are trying to blame me living near the beach. I live far away from the beach and I also clean my pram weekly. They refuse to replace the pram as well. Plus now they are trying to get this review erased and making me jump through hoops. Show details

Good pram but very heavy and bulky - UPDATE – This is a good sturdy pram with lots of storage if you need a pram for long walks and shopping. Not a great pram if you often need to take it in and out of the car or carry it upstairs. The five point harness is unnecessarily complicated to click together, especially with a squirming baby. The sun cover is very impractical as it needs to be… Read more
stored flat, so you can’t just keep it handy in the pram. Attaching it to the pram with the metal studs is really difficult too and it’s quite ugly.
Removing the seat/bassinet is HARD as you have to press both sides at the same time but need two hands to get one side to press! So if the baby is sleeping is very difficult to remove the bassinet to bring them inside. Or if you want the baby to face toward you/away it can be tough!
The silver part on the hood scratches easily. And accessories are also expensive!
I do like this pram in many ways but would not recommend it, especially for the price.
UPDATE After having baby number two, I opted to buy the Valco Baby Snap Trend Duo, for about the same price as just buying the second seat for the Joolz. It is a MUCH better pram in every way. So much lighter, easier to fold, a nice big basket even with two seats, so so easy to move the seats and fits through all doors. I dread getting out the Joolz when I only have to take one child now.
Hello Anne M Thanks for your feedback, we greatly… Read more
Amazing pram still love it after two years – We bought this pram, like many people, after a lot of searching. It's very easy to use and manoeuvre. We have a Golf station wagon (Mark 7) and it fits in the back no problem when folded. Have tried it in a Golf hatch (Mark V) and you really need to remove the wheels too in order to get it all in (might be ok in the newer Golfs). We live in the… Read more
inner suburbs of Melbourne so the pram rarely gets put in the car anyway. It's a well thought out pram. We have had to replace an inner tube (much cheaper to grab a wheel barrow inner tube from Bunnings) and the tyres are starting to crack (our fault though, we didn't keep the tyres pumped up so the side walls have been flexing too much). Our little one loves it but and although she can get into it she can't undo the clips which is a definite plus. The pram seems narrower than many others and the sliding handle means you can park it in a lot of places without it getting in the way. I'm well over two metres tall and it was one of the few prams we could find that suited as both. The sliding handle is so quick to adjust (you can do it in less than a second) that it's no problem swapping who pushes regardless of their height. We have the sun shade (which I highly recommend) and the rain cover (which is also good but our little one doesn't like it). The fabric has stood up to 2 years of abuse, as has the leather handle. The only signs of wear are on the aluminium frame where we have scraped things and where the handle slides. Also, the tyres as mentioned above.
All in all a fantastic pram. Worth the money if you are a heavy pram user.
Good pram but need improvement – This is my first pram. It's very heavy but it feels solid. Bassinet and storage for mono mode are spacious. I'm looking forward to using the summer seat - added accessory. We are planning to travel OS but decided not to take this pram with us as it's very heavy and Joolz don't make travel cover. Within 2 weeks in use, the left front tyre was… Read more
indented. This happened when the right tyre sat on the left when the frame was folded in the hot car. Joolz replaced the wheel with proof of the damage.
The frame is easy to fold away and heavy to lift. It's at least 10kg. If you've just had the baby, I don't know how you're supposed to lift it since you shouldn't lift anything heavier than your baby. I had mum helping for 2 months. The chrome frame also marks easily. I guess other prams are all the same??
After 3 months of use, I still need to use 2 thumbs to press the release button of each side of the bassinet.
It's difficult to access storage when I use the bassinet. It's easier to access the storage when using the capsule or rumble seat. I hired the Mico AP capsule from a local business but I had to purchase the adaptors as Joolz isn't popular enough for them to stock the adaptors. I find it's really difficult to clip/lock the capsule into the adaptors. I'd give this feature 1 star.
I'd like the hood to extend further. This feature is far behind the bugaboo's breezy hood. Joolz really needs to come up with a comparable design since its pricing is similar. I give this feature 2 stars.
Nappy bag is rather small. In my opinion, it'd only suit short trips. I purchased another bag that is bigger for day trips.
I bought this pram for its quality, manoeuvrability and ability to add a seat for the 2nd child. As a mono pram, I think it's pretty good but it needs some improvement. However, I've learned that you can't have it all. I think if I was to add the 2nd seat, I'd be very annoyed as I won't have any storage. The side pocket would be too small for a mother of 2. Beside, with the infant in the bottom seat, you wouldn't hang the nappy bag directly on top. And the lower seat is too low to lift a baby up. This might give me back pain.
Positive reviews
Absolutely love this pram! – The Joolz Geo is so easy to maneuver around, in fact, at times when it was necessary I have easily been able to push it around with one hand. It is way to fold once used to where to put the pressure. I love the quake ty of this pram and it looks so stylish! A little bit for the boot but I work around it fine.
Perfect pram for everyday! – Super easy to maneuver and I love that you can fold it one piece. Seat is comfortable and everything is very easy to set up. Love the option to purchase personalised bumper bars. Definitely a very stylish pram and have received many comments on it. Perfect for every day use!
Near perfection – My joolz geo... what can i say? Wow!. Live in an area where no bitumen footpaths exsist only stoned horse trails. My geo handles it immaculately! Even puts baby to sleep in minutes without the baby sliding in the bassinett or sliding down the seat. Folds up small enough to fit into my small suv. Light enough to luft after a csection. Everything… Read more
undose to waah easily in the washing machine. The only thing i can fault is the seat size. It could allow for a taller baby.
Negative reviews
Looks great – Really good pram and very stylish. The biggest problem is the wheels, you need to lock the wheels before folding it down and storing it away otherwise the pram will squash the wheel and cause a dint which we learnt the hard way. It is also quite hard to change the lying position.

Nice looking pram and stability but impractical when folding – Good looking pram, spacious and comfortable for our little one and easy to maneuver however its impractical aspects and frustrating at times. Mostly when folding the pram. You always have to lock the front wheels to ensure they are aligned parallel and locked in so that when you fold the pram the wheels don't get damaged by the pram frame. It is… Read more
frustrating to always have to lock and unlock the front wheels specially when in a hurry. At times when in a rush you miss to lock one front wheel to then find it damaged after folding. This is a flaw in the folding design and user experience. I front wheels have buckled twice because of this impracticality and poor folding design.
The instructions or shops don't tell you that you must lock the front wheels, but when you call for warranty and replacement they pretend that you should have known that you must lock the front wheels. You cannot be at easy, you always have to double check the front wheels locked properly to ensure the wheels don't get damaged.
I'm now looking into selling my Joolz geo particularly because of this folding impracticality
You would expect for a pram to cost $1500 to fold in one action without having to lock wheels to prevent them from getting damaged.
I'm really annoyed at this, if I would have know this fault prior to purchase, I would have not bought it.
Solid Pram – Don't buy this pram unless you enjoy pushing bricks. No doubt this is a solid pram. its a VERY solid pram. so solid, I really do mean, buy this pram if you enjoy pushing bricks. and no, the brake isn't on. This pram really is just a statement piece. its incredibly bulky and does not pop up onto kerbs well at all. the turning is dreadful… Read more
and I am annoyed I bought this pram in the first place. At first I was raving about how great it was. Now I've changed my mind.
Now days it's used as a day cot for my son. that's it. I can hardly take it for a walk without it getting freaked out by every raised lip on a footpath. it literally can't go over them well. you can only 'pop' it over a lip or kerb if you have the handlebar on the highest setting, which is dumb for a short person like me.
the shopping basket is what sold me. I'm a frequently shopper to the local supermarket, and I enjoy walking there, but as I discovered, I can't tilt the seat parent facing if the basket is full, thanks to the foot well not being able to be lifted or adjusted, it ends up inside the shopping basket, which kinda defeats the purpose of an extra large shopping basket.
The other issue is the brake is only on one side of the pram, which is really terrible if you have to park it in a place and you can't easily reach the brake. brakes should be central or easily accessible from both sides of the pram.
If you want this pram for style, this is it.
If you live in an mythical place where every service is smooth and flat, this is it for you.
If you have someone who can unload the pram from the car so you never have to feel how heavy it is, this is the pram for you.
I'm well aware not everyone will agree with me, I know it's a pram loved by many. I'm not one of them sadly.

Great pram – Great pram although viser doesn’t come low enough to keep sun the out of my little ones eyes. Easy to maneuver, fold, unfold and good quality! Ensure front tyres are in lock position and back break is on before it’s folded away in the car otherwise the tyres can disfigure in the heat
Hi MaryP74, Thanks for your feedback, great to hear you… Read more
Love it, simple to use – I love my duo, so easy to use. I can have so many different configurations too. Say I only have one child with me I click the shopping basket back on and away we go. Easy to use and get around country areas as well as city areas. I am only short and husband is tall but with a simple click of the handle bar it is comfortable for the both of us.

Great Pram for Big Babies – We love our Joolz Geo.... it is really easy to maneuver easy to get in and out of the car and fits a bubba who is on the larger size easily!! Looking at all of the other peaks available there is no way in which our baby, who has always been and the longer and larger end of the scale, would have been able to fit into the cot for long! We were… Read more
fortunate enough to discover that the Standad size of the Joolz geo is larger that the other peaks available, and it is easier to assemble, our in the car and get through tight spaces!
We love it, and it looks good too!
The quality of the fabric that it constructed with is phenomenal and can be easily spot cleaned.
It is a pram that you can easily go walking with and even jog if you are that way inclined!
Love – I absolutely love my Joolz Geo it is so easy to manoeuver, easy to fold and unfold , and looks great I get many compliments. The pram basket is a great size great when your out shopping. Couldn’t be happier with the Joolz Geo especially love the size of the bassinet so handy when you travel when Bub is young.
Best all rounder pram! SO much basket space – This pram is so easy to put up and down, get in and out of the car and has so much basket space for all of the bits and bobs required when taking bub out and about. It fits in the boot perfectly and has withstood the messiness of a 7 month old baby.
About to use it as a double pram second time around – This pram has stood the rest of time. I am about to covert it to a double for my second bub. The bassinet has been brilliant. Such a safe and supportive sleeping space with so much room, we also use it as a portable bassinet for day time sleeps when out visiting. The basket has so much room and would definitely recommend it over a Joolz Day for the extra space if you do a lot of walking in replace of driving for shopping etc.
Love this pram – Easy to fold and unfold, sturdy quality, easy to steer on and off road, rear or forward facing for child. Basket underneath is huge plenty of room to carry everything you need. Child always seems comfortable. The toddler skateboard for older siblings is great. Very nice to look at. Overall happy with this pram.
Easy to fold/unfold & manoeuvre – I love my Joolz Geo- it’s very easy to move around and load/unload from the car and the basket is ample storage for one baby. My favourite feature is the fold up hood from the back with mesh to allow air to flow through the seat or bassinet on a hot day. I’m currently only using the bassinet but look forward to using the seat so the pram folds down in one piece. (I do get lots of comments about the look too!)
Amazing pram! Practical and stylish – I love my Geo... I bought with the intention of only having one bub but with the second seat option just incase. To my surprise I found out I was pregnant when my first was 12 months. The use we’ve got out of it being able to add the capsule to it is invaluable. I’ve had some minor problems but the customer service is amazing and the problems have been corrected within a day and the replacement at my doorstep!
Beautiful pram – Love the pram! It looks beautiful, is narrow enough to fit anywhere comfortably, has a huge storage basket and the high seat means my baby is always close to me. It’s also very easy to fold, can be used as a high chair at cafes and restaurants and has an optional second seat.
Love our pram! – Have had the joolz geo as a mono for 1 year with my daughter. Baby number 2 came along not long after and I was SO happy I purchased this pram. I just had to purchase the extension kit for bub to use at the bottom. My toddler didn't have to be kicked out of the pram so soon! She's now 2 and a half and bub is 1. We use the skateboard attachment for… Read more
her but if she's tired we pop her into the bottom seat no problems for a quick nap. It's big enough for her. Only downside is that i don't have the geo2 :-D my sister purchased the geo2 after she tested mine for the day. Soooo jealous as it has extra hood length and magnetic harness.
Love our pram. The only issue I had once was a dented wheel after not being aware I had to lock it into place. However joolz sent 1 out to me within few days no problem.
If you are looking for a duo pram go for the joolz!!

It’s wonderful! I can’t live without it – We absolutely love our Joolz Geo not only does it look great, it’s really easy to manoeuvre and easy to fold and put in the back of the car. The height of the pram is absolutely fantastic especially when going out it’s a perfect height to sit at a table
Wouldn't have any other pram! – Love the Geo! Smooth ride, baby sleeps for hours in it, easy to set up and love that you can fold as one piece. This was a huge draw card for me. The quality is second to none I found after lots of research and their customer service even better! Huge fan!
Lovely pram – We have had our Joolz pram for just over 2 years now and it is a beautiful pram, it certainly turns heads when we’re out and about and has lasted daily use so far. It’s easy to maneuver one handed but we have found the back wheels have been going flat and needed a pump more often. We love the large basket and the option for a second seat too and… Read more
love the fact that it can be laid flat so baby can nap and put little one loves a pram nap! Like others we were also not told about having to lock the front wheels before folding, nor was it in the manual. We have since had them replaced by the lovely joolz team I would love to see a snack tray in the future but otherwise a great pram
Our dream pram – We love our Joolz! Practical and stylish, it always turns heads. Our daughter is always comfortable, and especially loves the seat (was a reflux baby so we have mostly used the seat). Can't wait to use this pram when we have two. Easy to manoeuvre, quick to fold and easy to clean.
We love our joolz geo2 – Very happy with joolz geo2 perfect double pram , easy to get around shops . Bub or toddler fit perfect either up top or bottom The quality of material used for the pram is fantastic and easy to clean . We upgraded from the joolz day & both have been fantastic .
Best pram! – Absolutely love our Joolz Geo. It’s so easy to manoeuvre, easy to collapse and assemble, and our baby girl never fusses whilst in it. It is easy to push across wet grass and gravel and easy to clean. Whilst more expensive than other prams, it is worth every cent. My only complaint would be that it can be difficult to find stockists for the accessories
Best pram. I love it – Great pram that I fell in love with when I was searching for prams. It has so much storage. Super comfy. It is abit heavy but all good prams that I tried were the same. Love the look of it. It’s very easy to maneuver. Folds easy. Haven’t had any problems with it at all
Best double pram on the market by far!! – I’ve been a happy Joolz customer since my first son was born in 2014. We originally purchased the Joolz Day Studio - AMAZING!! We then fell pregnant with our 2nd and it was a no brained upgrading to another Joolz Pram. We opted for the Geo Duo. It has been nothing short of amazing. So easy to move & steer with both boys in the pram. Not bulky at… Read more
all; can still fit in those tight spaces with absolute ease. We now have our 3rd on the way and our eldest has now outgrown the pram so I cannot wait to use it as a duo again once our little girl arrives in September!!
Dinted wheels – We live inner city and rarely put the pram in the car but since using two seats we have had to fold he pram more often. We’ve just noticed our wheels are dinted and gave only just seen that we were supposed to lock the wheels. We had no idea about this. We were never told this when we purchased the pram - not when we purchased the second seat. For… Read more · 2
something so important (so that the pram doesn’t bend) it hasn’t been communicated very well and it’s a bit disappointing given how much money is spent on the pram.
Best investment! – With so many prams on the market, making a decision wasn't easy but we definitely made the right one. The Joolz Geo is easy to manoeuvre, has a great turning circle (and can be pushed easily with one hand), has a generous-sized shopping basket, and is easy to fold and unfold. The bassinet is roomy, and the upright chair has three positions. At… Read more
times it can be a bit tricky to change the position of the seat with a sleeping baby inside but in all, the quality is great. It is a but pricey but it's well worth the investment.
Love it! – Love how easy it is to steer, you have so much control with such little effort. Beautiful looking pram. It has the ability to be used as a high chair at restaurants which is very convenient. The Pram is also super easy to fold and store away. Also have used it traveling and comes apart quiet well to pack.
Love this stylish pram! – I love my Joolz Geo! So easy to steer and turn. Very convenient to use with the Maxi-Cosi Mico AP capsule (little extra cost buying adaptors for it but the convenience is worth it). Easy to fold/unfold. Looks so stylish, I always get compliments on it :) So far I have only used my Geo in mono/single but I intend to use it as a duo in the future.
The only pram my son likes! – I've had a number of different prams for my 2 sons (now 5 and 2) over the years, but none compare to this. My youngest is still happy to sit in the stroller at the shopping centre (which is a win in itself) My guess is it's because he's up high and feels like he's part of it all as well as really comfortable. We have the Summer Seat accessory -… Read more
an amazing mesh seat (swap the seat fabrics with this mesh fabrics) that is perfect in the summer time - it allows airflow and baby can see behind as well
The basket it great - fits so much in it and can be removed and used as with handles to carry inside if need be.
The pram itself is so easy to manoeuvre and I love that the seat and frame can be folded as one and popped into the back of my car.
My only regret is that I couldn't buy it as a duo when both boys were in a pram as it wasn't in Australia then.
