Not what I thought it be – Please do not get this pram if you a) don’t have a big car b) need it for a toddler and new born and c) have a c section you won’t be able to lift it. I bought this pram thinking it would be great for my baby and toddler however as stated before was a little disappointed with the expandable set as I feel the design wasn’t fully thought through… Read more
for a family with a baby and a Toddler, new born has to be on the bottom and there’s no storage at all also on the days when you only have the baby (when toddler is at nursery) the system doesn’t work very well. You either have to change the upper seat back into a flat bed bassinet which isn’t easy and not something you would want to do very often. The second option is to have the baby in the lower expandable kit and remove the toddler’s upper seat but then the system looks very odd and you have no storage. It would have been a much better design if there was a way to clip the lower expandable kit into the space for the upper seat too or have it so that the toddler seat can go on the bottom but with baby on top. If that was an option it would be brilliant, however as it is i feel it’s expensive for something that has design flaws.
I spent a lot of money and it’s one of the biggest and heaviest prams ive ever had to lift and fit into my prado also so hard to keep toddlers seat clean as if they have a snack in the pram all the crumbs catches at the bottom and is extremely hard to brush out. trying to sell on now and buy Baccani Lusso Double Pram much cheeper and has a way better design
Not ideal for Tandem – The Configurations for the tandem are not practical and extremely limited, the other child’s seat is literally in on top of the bottom one. I can’t understand how the pram comes at the price tag it does, especially if you look at the redsbaby and baby bee for half the price: I haven’t used these ones personally, but after using the Joolz I wouldn’t recommend it (unless your one of these people that are just for show and not practicality)
Expensive - wear marks will appear from general normal use – I purchased the Geo2 from Baby Village in August 2018. I have also purchased many of the accessories over time - foot muff, nappy bag, cup holder, board for toddler to stand on, capsule adaptors, raincover etc. All up I’ve spent approx 2.5k with the brand if not more. Not impressed that after 3 (almost 4) years there are wear marks on the frame… Read more
from the pram being put up and down. See pics. The marks are actually worse in person and continue all the way around the part that goes up and down, with some parts looking worse than others. For the cost, you would expect better quality.
I contacted the company to find out what could be done to rectify the issue and was told there must be something stuck in the frame causing it to catch ie blaming me, and asking for another $900 for a frame. The pram has always been stored inside our home or in the boot of the car and has always been wiped down and been taken care of.
Overall, it’s a decent pram, but I would recommend purchasing something else if you intend to use for more than one child as the wear marks look awful.
The pram manoeuvres easily and looks great until the wear marks appear.

Very happy new mum - beautiful and functional pram – I have had this pram for 3 months with no issues - I take it to Dendy Park in Brighton Melbourne and can wheel on grass and the dirt footpath no problems. It glides very smoothly. Its really sturdy, love the leather handle too and the huge storage basket. It pops up and down ok and the bassinet is long so it will last for a long baby you also dont… Read more
need Joolz linen other brands do fit although I bought their baby nest and it sits great in it. It is in the larger side and a bit heavy but its worth it just check it fits your boot. I also bought adapters and put my maxi cosi capsule onto this pram.

Stylish but impractical – The pram is very smart, has a lovely big basket and manoevers well. The positives end there. The major flaw is the seat is way too shallow. My 2 year old slips off the seat and is held up by the strap between her legs making it too uncomfortable for her to use. She is very lean so her size is not the issue. I bought the Joolz branded polar… Read more
footmuff but when placed on the seat it becomes even narrower and it doesn't even leave enough space for my 8 month old (bottom 2nd percentile) to sit on properly.
Other things to consider are: 1. The seat tilts but the formation cannot be changed, i.e it cannot be completely flattened and the footrest cannot be raised - having a foot rest that raises up to create a level surface for bottom and feet would address the narrow seat problem if the kid is happy sitting with the legs up. 2. The two buttons to take off the seat/bassinet are stiff and need two hands 3. The front wheels need to be locked before you can collapse the pram 4. The hood/shade is more limited than other prams so I found myself constantly having to drape a muslin over the top to extend it to avoid the sun shining into my children's eyes. 5. The buggy board is an afterthought. It interferes with the break as it clips onto the rod that operates the breaks. It doesn't store away/fold up when you don't want to use it so end up tripping over it. I had to devise something makeshift to hold it up but it was a real faff and caused issues with the breaks so I ended up unclipping the buggy board whenever my toddler decided to walk and put it in the basket (which isn't really big enough for it so it would often fall out and stop us using it for other things). The bugaboo buggy board, for example, can be flipped up with a flick of your foot when you don't want to use it. 6. If you have 2 young children both of whom need a seat or bassinet, Uppa Baby Vista is much more practical. With the Joolz you cannot switch between seat and the full bassinet because they both use the same frame. Unless you purchase another frame at huge expense. The extra 'bassinet' that fits on the pram with the seat must be positioned really low down on the level of car exhausts/fumes. You also lose the basket and when you have 2 kids when you need it more than ever.
A few issues but otherwise a great pram – The pram travels quite smoothly on most types of terrain although I do live in the city so we haven’t really been anywhere besides parks and paved footpaths. The sun hoods provide ample shade. My oldest son sits on the top seat and always seems comfortable. The harness can be hard to use sometimes especially with a wriggly toddler. My youngest… Read more · 1
son is 3 months old and is using the cot. He unfortunately hates it. The cot tends to be on a slight decline so when going for walks the top of his head always ends up touching the top of the seat. I’m assuming this happens as there’s no real support underneath the head of the cot. We have had to put a small pillow underneath the mattress to make it even. I’m looking forward to when my son is old enough so we can convert it into the seat.
As other people have mentioned, having the extra step of clicking the two front wheels is tedious. I have also forgotten do this and now one of the wheels is dented. Does anyone know how I can purchase a replacement?
Not to do with the pram but a Joolz product - The coffee cup you can purchase as an extra is a waste of money. You have to drink half your coffee otherwise it will just spill everywhere. I’ve used it once but I found it too dangerous having a baby underneath.
To be totally honest for the price of the Duo I didn’t expect to experience these types of issues. I believe if I were to only use it on my toddler I would be very happy but I am very disappointed with the functionality of the second seat. The only pro I have found is the fact that it is very compact compared to other double prams and it is easy to navigate around cafes, shops etc.
Love the Joolz Geo 2 – Every time I say that I must review my baby products, I forget to or just never bother! But I am doing it now as I research high and low looking for reviews before purchasing a baby product as it’s very important for us mums as we constantly go through doubled items lol or buy one and throw it out after finding out it’s not as great as we wanted… Read more · 1
it to be! So here I go lol.
Currently using my Joolz Geo2 in single mode, but cannot wait to use in double!
I had purchased another pram for the birth of my baby over a year ago. That pram I loved, however, it could not accommodate my taller than average toddler at age 13months!
I do regret not looking at this pram during pregnancy and having my heart set on another, missing the opportunity to have had this pram much much earlier!
It has been an absolute gem to push around! The style & overall finishing touches make you & bub look a million bucks haha!
A lot of effort was definitely put into the design & overall quality of the pram :) so the price tag makes sense! You pay for quality right?
The seat has plenty of room upwards for my LO to fit in there for many more years to come & even when the extended canopy is all the way back, it doesn’t sit on my LO’s head
Positive reviews
Good quality – We loved our Joolz pram. It was extremely well made and wore well. The only thing I would have changed was to make the basket at the bottom bigger to be able to carry more shopping. The pram is easy to clean and fit easily into my small car boot. Show details
Love this pram – I love my joolz geo2 pram. It’s so smooth and lightweight to push and takes bumps well. It’s a very comfortable pram my daughter loves it. We will be getting the double extension soon for our second child. Only thing I find hard is it’s heavy to lift into the car and takes up lots of boot space. We are very happy with our purchase.

Good customer service/warranty – Had a problem where my pram chassis had faded from black to bronze and was disappointed considering the price tag however was completely impressed with how the company handled my complaint. After seeing photos of the damage they with no hesitations sent me out an entirely new chassis. No losing my pram for weeks of assessment, just replaced no… Read more
questions asked. Fantastic customer service, wish every company would be so easy to deal with. Thank you very much Joolz!
Negative reviews
Do not buy Joolz – So I bought my Joolz pram this year. As I stopped using the bassinet, I put the other seat in and after a couple of days, the little buckle from the seat belt fell out. I was so lucky that I noticed it before my 6 month old did as he could have easily put it in his mouth and choked on it. I emailed complaint and receipt to customer service and all… Read more
they did was send me a cup holder as compensation. That is pathetic from a company who sells expensive prams. I bought mine for $1500 and I am disturbed that it had a choking hazard and could have seriously caused damages to my baby. So please do not purchase Joolz.
Don’t waste your hard earned money – Bought the noir geo2 joolz. Received our pram 6months after purchasing. Was not told when we went to pick it up to register for lifetime warranty so missed out by few months after cut off due to their strict terms and conditions so was only provided standard 2yrs instead. Seeing how much you spend on the product you would think they could at least… Read more
see the circumstances and allow it as a once off but no as they are strict with their Terms and conditions. Was given a promo summer seat with pram but didn’t fit because it was for another model. Took this up with head office only to pretty much be told it was out of their hands and to take it up with Toddler town as it is a Toddler town promotion not joolz promotion. Very inconvenient having to call and return seat to Toddler town than waiting a few weeks to pick up the correct one. Only positive note was the service I received from [name removed]. For what you pay it’s definitely NOT worth it. Especially when your child out grows it quickly. We bought it Boxing Day but received 6months later so by than my daughter was already crawling and wanting to stand and try walking. By time she started walking she was not interested in just sitting in stroller. Real waste of time and money. Pram is also heavy so if you are out on your own can be tricky loading and unloading in to the car. The low scoring is due to fact I had not really had much use for the product seeing as she already out grew it and mainly due to circumstances that I had disclosed to joolz regarding the registration of life time warranty.

Barely used and still has sooo many issues – The pram is very heavy so it isn’t great on grass and is not compatible with sand. The structure of the pram does not support suspension so I am onto my second set of wheels as they keep creaking. Also had issue with break not kicking off and handle bar being Woodley. It does fold very easily and looks fab. Joolz customer service are quick to… Read more
respond to concerns, however process of having the pram that is still under 2 yr warranty picked up to be assessed is frustrating.

1st Pram – CONS Shade hood is too small This pram is huge, takes up our whole boot- even without bassinet adaptor. Sometimes the wheels lock in without clicking them too. PROS This pram pushes so well, so smooth. This pram is easy to pack up and down I love that it’s tandem Show details
Love my Joolz pram! – I absolutely love my Jools, especially the bassinet part. It's easy to put together, very sturdy, and can go on any sort of surface (lots of off track walking). My girl is 14 months, and I still find that she can't use the fully seated position without falling right onto the seatbelt, but the middle position is great. Show details
Great quality – I’m using the bassinet in this still but am very happy with it so far. It is very sturdy which also means heavy. But I’d prefer to have the great quality over a super light pram. Show details
Love it! – I absolutely love my Joolz geo. I have just changed it to the seat and my little one seems comfortable. Suspension is fantastic. The only thing is to always remember to lock the front wheels! My front wheels are dinted as my husband forgot to lock it. How do I go about getting replacement for these as it is still under warranty? Other than that it a fantastic pram and I would recommend it to all my friends. Show details
Love! – Love this pram! It's stylish, light, and maneuvers easy. Constantly getting compliments on my pram then when they look inside and see my baby, i get compliments about him too LOL I love that there's an option to change bottom basket to another cot in case of a new baby. The bottom basket is also very spacious, has handles and is removable and can… Read more · 1
be used like a shopping basket
My baby is a chunky 5mth old and is still using the cot so once he's big enough to change to the bigger seat, I'll update my review. But so far, i love it! The hood can extend and provides amazing coverage from the sun
Another plus is lifetime warranty. How awesome is that? All i need now is for Joolz to send me a freebie for my awesome review *wink wink* lol jk. This is my honest opinion though.
Looks great but not great. Need to buy a new pram after four months use!!! – manoeuvres well and is easy to fold worth nice high handlebar however the pram seat isn’t deep enough for bubs to sit comfortably, straps are too thick and close together, clip is nightmare to do up. I’ve only been using my pram for four months and the chassis is creaking and sounds like something is broken already. Front wheels also get jammed on… Read more
tiny little bumps in the road. Easy to fold up etc, which is what I focused on but in hindsight I wouldn’t purchase this product again which is a shame as I loved it before I started using it and realised all these issues.
Hi Helen D. Thanks for your feedback but something… Read more (+2 replies)
Looks good but remember to lock! – Couldn’t agree with rest of posts more. The pram looks amazing and handles super well however the extra step of needing to lock front wheels can be a real pain. An extra step busy mothers probably don’t appreciate. Yesterday I forgot to lock the front wheels before I collapsed the pram and now they are dented. How can I get replacements and do they need to be replaced by a professional? Show reply
Best pram!! – I’ve been using my Joolz Geo2 for the last 4 months since our bub was born. I can say hands down it is a great pram. It is super sturdy and easy to manoeuvre. While it is definitely on the heavier side compared to other prams it has not been an issue for us. Another great feature is the UV cover which can be bought as an accessory. It protects our… Read more · 1
baby from the sun but also removes distractions when sleeping - we don’t have to use the wraps like other prams to do this which is a potential safety hazard. The basket below is also awesome. Would highly recommend!!
Beautiful looking - needs minor improvements – This pram performs beautifully, the suspension is amazing and even going uphill it doesn’t feel like you’re pushing anything heavy. Looks great and has a big basket at the bottom. Good accessories range as well. Some minor improvements that could be made: - Even when in full upright mode there is a slight incline to the seat, if you have a nosy… Read more · 1
baby like mine he will want to crane his head forward the whole time
- It would be great if you didn’t have to fully remove the seat to go between parent and forward facing (ie if the handle was on a hinge and just flipped between modes)
- only collapses down when in forward facing mode
Other than that I adore the pram, it’s very stylish and functional.

We had twins and this was a must pram to get – We surprisingly had twins and large too so we had to upgrade our single pram and trade it in for this one as it was Hevesy duty and not bad on price. The staff showed how easy it packs away but assembly was difficult not very good instruction book but overall both girls love sitting in the dual pram Show reply
Beautiful pram that is super practical! – First time mum here. I literally spent 6 months of my pregnancy researching and looking at every type of pram. Baby expo's ect. Just before baby was born I finally decided on the joolz, not only is it the most beautiful pram on the market it was the most practical for our lifestyle. We live on a rural property and I needed something with sturdy… Read more · 1
big wheels so I could go for walks outside on rough roads and gravel ect - works a dream. The bassinet is better than most actaul bassinets you can buy and due to having a c-section and living in a two story house - I use the pram with bassinet for her day time sleeps, for this reason when we are out she loves being in the pram because she is in her bed and she loves it! The pram is really easy to assemble and put in and out of the car, I have quite a small hatch back and it fits. The large shopping basket is fantastic for a quick trip to Coles to put your things in there. I love the mesh vent section of the hood, perfect for airflow on hot days. I also chose this pram for the ability to convert into a double pram when the time comes - much more appealing compared to the bugaboo donkey as its huge! Looking forward to using the seat option as the pram will then fold down in 1 easy step. Totally worth the investment! Very easy to use, can push with one hand very easily, super monervable and sturdy. Cannot recommend this pram enough!
Beautiful pram – The joolz is such an eye catcher and stylish pram. It moves almost effortlessly and has puncture proof tyres. After a few tries, I'm now confident in taking this pram out and about alone. I can easy fold and unfold the pram and fits in my hatchback car. It does have a bit of weight to it but the design outweighs the heaviness! It feels good… Read more
quality and always have people complimenting me when they see me using the joolz. A bit pricey but I know I will have this for years to come.
Perfect – I loooove this pram .. very easy to use very easy to fold , very light weight , and its very classy and elegant .. i love the basket it so big and it can fitt alot of things im so happy and satisfied with it .. i highly recommend it .
The best Pram by far available! – The most stylish easy to use pram available. It is worth absolutely every cent. As a first time Mum I could not be happier with how easy it is to setup and take everywhere with me. I can't wait until my little Beau is big enough for the full seat to road test that feature. The Bassinet is incredible for naps both inside and outside the home. I'll never buy another pram.
New mum, dream pram – I’m a brand new mummy and knew I needed a pram that was going to fit my lifestyle with our new Baby on the way. I have to say the Joolz prams stood out to me from the start from their quality, functionality and style was a big factor for me too. My husband and I (and baby) have loved using our Geo2 and has stood up to all of our expectations as new parents. Thanks Joolz!
Best pram on the market – We are so happy with our joolz geo 2. We got the double and it’s so easy push to with two kids. We absolutely love the one fold and it’s super easy to carry. The extended hood is perfect to prevent bibs from the sun. We love the look, quality and customer service at Joolz is definitely 5stars!
Love my Joolz! – So easy to fold and unfold, making it a breeze to take in and out of the car. Easy to maneuver on hilly, windy walks and around all those tables in cafes :). Now, the build quality... let’s just say my husband backed into the pram with his car and the car came out worse! (Baby not in tow!!!). I’m still shattered about the tiny dint it put into the… Read more
frame of my beloved pram :( but am astonished that it was not caved it with the force that it took! Love this pram!
Joolz Geo2 is fantastic – Ok so I have rated this a 4 and although it’s perfect for me and I wouldn’t choose any other pram it’s not perfect for everyone. I love how stylish it is, how comfy for my baby, the functionality to change to a dual pram is fantastic. I can push it easily I can fit so much in the basket including the dog. The accessories are worth the extra you… Read more
pay and I love the colour selections of the pram. I find it easy to fold down and put up even when I’m in a rush and I love how the straps are soft and adjustable.
The only negatives which don’t impact me but could others are it’s quite big and heavy and you can’t fit much else in the boot of a small car (Mazda 3)! It’s worth the price you pay but I’m too scared to travel with it overseas as I didn’t want it damaged and let’s face it most airlines do damage prams, so I had to buy a cheap pram for this. The weight means it’s not extreamly easy to push “off road” like the farm we often go to.
However for me this is a 5 star pram and I love it.
Best pram! – Choosing a pram was a big decision and I did lots of research. I couldn’t be happier with my joolz geo. It’s such good quality, easy to maneuver and the storage basket is huge!! It’s great knowing it can easily adapt to a double pram in the future. i get lots of comments on how nice it is!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT – I LOVE my joolz Geo2 not only does it look stylish but it is such an amazing pram. The chair itself sits high which is amazing when eat at restaurants and pushing up to the table it’s like your very own high chair. The bassinet mode is also great and comfortable for bubs from birth my son loved it and slept so well in it (better than his actual… Read more
bassinet). The pram Drives like a dream. Also is easy to fold and has a decent size shopping basket which can be removed which is handy. Another great thing about Joolz is their customer service team is amazing!!! We had a slight issue with our pram over the Christmas period when they were closed and when we contacted them during this time they rectified the issue straight away! I would buy Joolz again just for the customer service alone!
Best pram for first time mum!! – This pram is amazing! Super maneuverable, easy to collapse and pull up, its stylish, sturdy, has heaps of storage space, is the perfect length for our long baby girl and as a bonus is the perfect height for her tall parents! I would 100% recommend this pram to all first time parents!
Stylist practical pram – I love my Joolz pram. So easy to manoeuvre And I love that it collapses to fit into my car in one piece rather than having to separate the seat from the frame. I love the stylist colours and the leather handle bar. The wheels are great on all terrain. Our toddler loves going for walk in it!
