Love this pram – Have had many prams and strollers with my kids. This has been the best without a doubt. love the reversible handle, large canopy and basket. Easy to steer. Easy to fold and unfold (often I've done this one handed). Also easy to pick up out of boot when folded due to carry/grab handle, and stands by itself while folded. Fits in the boot of my small… Read more
car. Plus it has a built in toddler step. All round goodness! Reversible handle, Large canopy, Large basket, Toddler step, Carry handle, Easy fold/unfold.
OK – I was really happy with the reversibility factor and the fact that infants can lie flat as they were my two priorities in a pram. The wheels have made walking challenging at times (if I need to cross grass etc) and actually they even jar going over the kerbs in my suburb. I have kind of regretted purchasing this pram simply because it cost so… Read more
much money and is unsatisfactory in the wheel and brake area, however I think it would be difficult to get a pram where I am happy with everything (the perfect pram), so I am happy to live with it now. Reversible handle, lies flat for infants, easy to fold once you figure it out, quite light, folds up to a reasonable size, big basket, looks nice, seems cosy, my little man likes hanging on to the bar at the front now he's one. Wheels are pretty hopeless on everything but the smoothest surface, the brakes sometimes don't lock properly (which I think is a major safety issue), the harness is only temporarily fixed at the top and not very secure, the wheels are a bit worn after a year of use, the netting at the side of the basket has a hole in it but I have probably abused it a bit! Oh and it cost A LOT.
OK – This is a good brand when it comes to baby product, a bit expensive then other brands, serves the purpose. The reversibility of the handle is a good factor,and babies can be comfortable in it at all times, but the problem is the wheels can be a pain to manipulate and will sure give you a hard time while walking, crossing the street or at the… Read more
grassy areas of the park.It wont cooperate with you as if it got a mind of its own.I guess If youre a budget conscious you can think again and buy your baby a cheaper brand that will be more comfortable to manipulate and that your baby will be comfy as well. Reversible handle, washable cover A bit expensive, manipulating the wheels could be hard at times
Good – I was given this pram (a reject from my sister in law) and thought i'd give it a go before making an opinion. It was a great pram. My son loved it and slept really well in it. It lies down totally flat which alot of prams dont do and had plenty of room for him and for shopping. It was not too heavy and really easy to fold up. If you are a jogger… Read more · 1
though I would not recommend this pram as the wheels are little and get stuck on rocks etc. Luckily I was just going shopping and eating in cafes most of the time! Oh and I have an older version that was blue check and a girlfriend told me 'thats an ugly pram' so if you are into style over substance this is not for you! i liked how you could have the baby facing you and how easy it was to use and also the shopping basket being big got stuck on rocks on footpaths
Good – I got my Venezia second hand from ebay, the previous owner had seriously abused this poor little pram. I gave it a service and it has been great ever since. I like that I can change the direction my baby is facing really easily and that the pram can still steer as either set of wheels (or all of them) can be fixed or steer. I like the… Read more
floating harness, it is great for my 14 month old as she is fully secured but can move around. I love how my toddler can ride on the back of the pram without me needing to install a fiddly toddler board. The hood is too small but it is adequate. The basket holds a lot of shopping. It is easy to fold, but the mechanism does need some regular TLC with a can of WD40. Overall, I think that this is a great shopping pram, but I would suggest that second hand is the way to go, I don't think it is worth the money as new. I am thinking of getting another one that is newer than mine I like it so much. I have been looking around and can't find anything that does as well as the Venezia. Reversible handle, large basket, washable fabric, four steerable wheels, boot cover, easy to fold, extendable leg rest, toddler stand. Hood is too small, fold mechanism sticks, wheels can be shaky
Good – I loved the versatility of the pram/stroller, especially since I was able to lay my newborn in it very comfortably. The design is absolutely superb in that in lays flat for a newborn and looks so cozy. The reversible handle is perfect so you can easily see what bub is doing. The only real downside was the occasional difficulty in steering. The… Read more
wheels would sometimes lock up at certain angles when turning. Overall, still a good pram, especially if purchased second-hand. Reversible handle, easily and quickly converts from bassinet mode to seat mode, and very light to carry in and out of the car. The wheels can sometimes be a hassle to handle.
OK – Not bad but not great. I bought this for my first child and spent a fortune, I have now bought another 3 wheel jogger as well for taking out for walks and for the more outdoorsy activities for my 7 month old. The pram has held up OK and is still fine for shopping centres et and is narrow enough not to get caught in narrow aisles or checkouts… Read more
like some of the larger joggers can. Oh, and my husband found it hard to drive especially when bub s faced towards you as he is quite tall and he keeps kicking his shins on the pram base. Also, isn't quite tall enough for the guys I think (my husband loves the jogger as he can steer it with one hand and it has a great step length for him) I love that it is easy to reverse the handle so that you can shade your baby if they are pointed into the sun and that you can see them and talk with them, it is fairly light and does fold down well, it is great for a newborn to sleep in and it is a good harness for when the baby gets a bit bigger and pulls around. I like how you can look one or four wheels for easier steering. Quite expensive for what you get. Mine is showing some wear and the small tyres make it really difficult to move on uneven surfaces (even footpaths if they have large cracks). I have broken one of the catches so that only one side looks now when I put it into the boot and the wheels are starting to rattle and wobble a bit. when you put the pram up, the harness can get stuck and you have to fold up the pram again to get them out (this can be a real pain when you have the baby already in the pram and you have to move the baby back into the car seat etc)
Excellent – Great pram will last my child until they dont need it and i will use it for the next child i recommend this pram for blokes cause its a piece of cake to fold and unfold Very lightweight easy to use once shown packs into boot easy has a quality feel to it and extremely versatile in the ways you can push it it was a bit pricey wheels are sort of a… Read more
pain to lock them in straight does not like uneven surfaces example crossing a road up a driveway a bit uneasy
Terrible – I would not recommend this to anyone! I bought this stroller before the birth of my first child based on rave reviews of a friend. It is now used as a highchair at my mother-in-laws house. I have since gone on to buy a Phil and Teds Sport and a Maclaren, both of which I love. I regret the money I wasted on this stroller, for a 'premium' brand… Read more
it was a huge disappointment. Probably the worst baby product I have bought. After using it for 4 months I was going crazy and bought the Phil and Teds. The handle flips so you can have baby facing you or away. You can use it with a travel system, good foot muffler, folds nice and flat Everything else! It goes terribly on anything other than a flat surface such as indoors at a mall. It seems quite flimsy and I now have trouble locking the handle into place. The storage area underneath broke very quickly. It is fiddly to lock closed and basically impossible to do with one hand
The handle snapped off completely!! Hubby was only trying to go up the curb and that was the end… Read more
Terrible – MY pram has been a total lemon from the day I used it for the 1st time got stuck at a shopping centre as it wouldnt close it has been repaired but now I have found other faults. What a waste of money!!! Im still fighting for a new one no one wants to take the responsibility I like the colour basically there isnt much I like about it The wheels are hopeless the pram has a mind of its own does go straightthe clip doesnt stay attached to hood
Terrible – I HATE this pram. Big waste of money. I don't usually go for brand names but thought that this would be a good pram as I had seen a lot around and people raved about it (don't know what planet they were on!) When folded, the pram still takes up a lot of boot space. The five point harness is a complete joke as it is not even attached to the back of… Read more
the pram, it is attached with a flimsy hook type system.If your bub is just starting to sit up and you sit them upright with the five point harness they are likely to hit their face on the front bar as there is nothing to stop them from falling forward.This is my second one as the first one I had, the frame broke into two with one of my toddlers in it. Lucky I was holding my newborn while hubby pushed our other child in it. Peg would not give me my money back just replaced it with a new one. Would have preferred my money back. Save your money and buy something cheaper. You will be happier with something else that does the job well. Reversible handles- that's it! Wheels, five point harness(what a joke!)bulkiness
Good – I am now using this pram for my second child, so the pram is going on 3yrs. Great for shopping in small places, stable and washes up well. Colour has lastest with no fading, basket has seen better days. Have no regrets buying this pram it has served well in cold weather but does need a sun protector for baby. Light weight, easy to fold down once… Read more
you master it, stylish black that doesn't fade if left in sun. Harness can get stuck underneath seat when folding out pram.
OK – I do love this pram, but I needed a second one with larger wheels for rough surfaces. This one is great for shopping, taking to friends homes and use around your home. We live in Adelaide, so our footpaths are pretty even so it's ok, I took it to the city of Sydney and it was really hard to get arround due to the uneven surfaces. I do recommend… Read more
thid pram, but there are many more compact ones with large tyres coming out now that weren't around when I bought this... oh , they are also cheaper. revesible handle, converts from bassinet style, to pram to stroller. Large basket, sun hood unzips to convert to a canopy. Light weight, folds flat so heaps of room left in the car wheels are small so only practical for smoth surfaces like a shopping centre, terrible over gravel, grass or any rough surface

Bad – For the amount of money this pram costs you should be able to get a better one in the same cost bracket. I like that it has the functionality to lie baby down flat. When the pram is in the baby-facing-mum position (and the front wheels are on 'swivel') the front wheels wobble/shudder terribley. The pram has been given a wheel alignment and had the wheels replaced..the shudder still happens worse than before.
OK – This is a great pram if you only want to use it indoors. It is a dream to push around the shopping centre, it fits everywhere. Height Adjustable handle makes it comfortable to push. Reversible allows bub to face the pusher or the outside world. Folds up book style and is able to stand alone on its end, which means that the pram seat doesn't touch… Read more

Terrible – I was very disappointed with this pram. Thankfully I bought it on special at Toys R Us. The fact that both sets of wheels are lockable is great (suggest locking the wheels on the side you are pushing from) but the wheel treads wear out quickly, became wobbly in no time (I only use it for slow walks) and it's very bulky - even with a big boot in… Read more
our car this takes up alot of room. It is not worth the RRP of over $500. The 5 point harness hooks onto the back of the seat so it's not really that safe. The attachable bottle holder is useless and you'll wear your drink before drinking it. Some PP products are great - this however is not. Spend $150 on something else and get better value. Easy to set up, not too heavy. Extremely overpriced, wheels are wobbly, not very easy to clean, 5 point harness not very good, buttons from hood to side of pram do not work.
