Return Redsbaby JIVE2 Platinum Lover – We are a very active family, always out and about outdoors and travelling interstate and overseas. After using the Redsbaby JIVE2 Platinum for over year (including 2 trips with it overseas), we found we were pregnant again!!! No problems, with the JIVE2 Platinum tandem (adding the extra seat to make it suitable for 2 kidlets). I have used it all… Read more · 2
over USA, including off-road in national parks (see photo) and it handled beautifully. I had ALOT of questions from American mums about it - they loved it's construction (great high canopy coverage for the bub and narrow enough to fit easily at the shops) and stylish colour.
I loved having the winter cocoon accessory as it saved on bringing a blanket and kept my toddler nice and snug as a bug (meaning he was happy to nap in the pram while we explored). I have recommended this pram to all my pregnant (and not!) girlfriends, with 4 buying one this year alone.
It's exceptionally well built - the zips, frame and fabric is very durable and I have no issues keeping the Glacier colour clean with a gentle wipe. All the accessories are well thought out and useful for each season - I'm a massive fan of the Airflow seat, which ensured my son was nice and cool as we ventured around the neighbourhood in the summer months following his birth.
But don't take my word for it - attend a Demo Day and have a play with one yourself :)
Absolutely amazing, very happy with decision and would not change it for the world – This pram has great performance on pavement, at the beach (sand), grass, shopping malls and hills! All terrain so far that I have tried, this pram has breezed through! The pram suspension is great and is all even. My child is very comfortable anx enjoys nap time in the pram! Baby started off in the bassinet but now has grown old enough to use the… Read more · 1
toddler seat. I can also turn the seat around so that she is facing me, which is a relief because i get to see her and she gets to see me. The pram has many vents to allow the air to come through, much needed in this hot, Australian weather. I love the fact that the Jive2 has an oversized cover, allowing perfect nap-time. It can also be fully reclined. A little bit heavy but comes easier with practice, very easy to fold down and will fold down with the toddler seat attached! Easy, one-handed steering and small enough to maneuver in shopping centres. Extremely satisfied and I love it. Thank you!
Easiest pram to use and take wherever you need to go! – We live a very active lifestyle and have a puppy dog that needs exercise every day. This pram holds up on all surfaces. It is lightweight to pack up and put in the car, but incredibly sturdy too! Just today we were able to detach the bassinet so we could quickly take a dog for a swim at the beach, we absolutely love our pram! Show details · 1
The perfect pram! – I absolutely love, love, love my Jive2 Platinum. It took me a long time to buy my pram because i was comparing the features of different brands on the market. I honestly believe this pram wins in every category. It has bigger wheels and handles tough terrain and sandy footpaths easily, the suspension is awesome, it's ridiculously light compared… Read more · 1
with other prams, it's easy to steer and it's super easy to fold up and down. On top of all that I am impressed with the trendy look of the pram and the added features that most other prams don't have. It has an extra long canopy, lots of different air vents on the bassinet, I can attach another seat and it's not big and bulky. I cannot speak more highly about Redsbaby. I am so impressed with the quality of my pram and the finer designer details included for the incredible price. There are prams on the market that charge double what i paid and I still don't believe they have all the features that i listed and still be so trendy looking. Thank you for making being a first time mum a little easier and for keeping my little one so comfortable.
Best baby purchase!! – Me and my baby love our Jive2 Platinum! Cannot fault this pram, and I recommend to all of my friends who are expecting. Bonus points for easy folding and great design for a newborn in Aussie summer (great aeration!) Lockable front wheels mean can handle rough terrain. Great suspension, I have not had any problems with any off road terrains. My baby has loved his walks in the pram, always is smiling and happy on our walks Show details · 1

Bought preloved - good but not great – I bought preloved for $400. So it’s easy to brush over some of the small irritations but i don’t think i would be happy if I’d payed full price. Important note- The break system jammed a few months ago ,got stuck on locked. I had to call someone to come and pick me up as, though customer services had temporary solution to get me moving, it… Read more
involved tape which i didn’t have access to. Apparently this is a known flaw on the 2018 model as I called Redsbaby who referred me to a repair shop in my area and replaced it free of charge- so great customer service. The good Design and both seat attachments look great, and the material wares and washes well. My newborn was comfortable in the bassinet- i used an insert to stop them from getting jiggled around too much - The extended shade, UV cover and mesh ventilation areas are really good for hot days. Easy to put bassinet on and off of extended clips The buckle system of the seat is good once you get the hang of it - no awkward arm loops , easy quick release to get Bub out. The three different positions for the seat are good and i found the latch is very easy and smooth to use Extendable handle is great at full height for me at 5’10/178cm The bad- though the basket is an ok size, the soft structure is flimsy resulting in it unclipping from the bar, stuff spilling over walls as they collapse or being difficult to access. The placement of support bar within basket means a large bag cannot fit but you can jam smaller items around it. Make sure you check your bag will be suitable. Front wheels don’t take going down curbs or over bumps very well… at all! I was genuinely shocked at how it responds e.g. lurching forwards almost tipping both my partner and the pram over themselves when trying to cross quickly at traffic lights. I thought there was a problem with mine, perhaps with it being second hand something was loose or not working properly but after reading reviews i found other experienced the same ‘supension’ problem. It’s fine to bump on the back wheels sometimes but entirely impractical to have to do it all the time. Especially if you have a sleeping baby or in those early weeks. Impossible on rough gravel or uneven grassy field… no not a good off roading pram. I find the seat tricky to unclip from frame. The break pedal placement is SO inconvenient! It’s right beside the wheel and floppy basket wall. It’s fine for putting the break on but getting it off is difficult, most of the time i have to bend down and do it with my hand, or take my shoe off to get my foot in a good position to release it.
I was hoping to keep this for a second baby but will be trying something different.
Absolute standout pram. Best on the market by far – The perfect pram! After HOURS researching prams when I was pregnant with my first baby at the end of 2017, I coildnt get past the redsbaby jive 2 platinum. Id heard of all the big brand competitors but after seeing them I store and trying out those of my friends I was completely underwhelmed. There were basket issues, steering issues, folding… Read more · 1
issues, some were big and clunky, some were flimsy and felt unsafe, some were just plain ugly!
Redsbaby has popped up a few times over various conversations both in person and online Id had with fellow Mummas. Everyone who had a redsbaby RAVED about it. Skeptical but lazy and tired (well I thought I was tired, didnt I have a lot to learn) I decided to take the plunge and put in a preorder for the Redsbaby Jive 2 platinum, Id briefly tested out a Jive and was impressed.
On delivery setup was a breeze, From that moment onwards this pram has never let me down. Its safe, durable, comfortable, the steering is amazing (like Aah-mazing!) puncture proof wheels, sturdy enough for all surfaces, even bush tracks and rocky driveways are no problem. The pram and frame are strong but wonderfully stylish ( I get actual mums fan girling this pram regularly ) the basket is tidy, understated but functional, has no problem holding $100 shopping or more.
Safety is super important when it comes to anything thats for our kiddies, thats why I as a mum love the 5 point harness, the one touch release harness clip, the simple to use strap adjusters and the shoulders pads for added comfort! The hood of the pram and the entire bassinet attachment are covered in secret little zip compartments that quickly open to a mesh panel to allow amazing summer airflow that puts competitors prams to shame.
The accessories are amazing, sun protection, rain protection, caddy bag, cup holder and more! Everything you would want or need is available. Ive since had a second child and with the close age gap needed to upgrade to a double pram, second seat attachment it was! Now its the most commented on, stylish easy to use, fold, steer, manage with 2 under 2 double pram Ive ever seen. You will not regret choosing this pram. I 100% guarantee you will be happy with your purchase! As someone who spent a lot of hours researching prams you wont find anything better. The quality speaks for itself, the recommendations and RAVING redsbaby owners is proof of the standard of this pram.
It is great value for money – I didn’t really look at any other prams apart from the redsbaby and the bugaboo chameleon. I found the redsbaby to be so much cheaper, lighter and easier to collapse to put in the car. The frame and bassinet were a tight fit in my boot but I have a hatch back. I did have to have the brakes repaired as a part of their recall however, the repair… Read more · 1
took a whole 5 minutes and I haven’t had any problems since. I love that it’s suited for any terrain and even when going over a bumpy surface, bub still seems still so the suspension is great. The basket is a bit annoying as it folds down all the time but this is to accomodate the second seat should you need one. Bub seems very happy whilst she’s in the mood fam and is comfortable enough to sleep in it when it’s reclined. I also love the 5 point harness as it gives me peace of mind that bub is very well strapped in. It’s easy to adjust the straps if need be as well. It was a bit of a struggle to put the bassinet together but I didn’t use the bassinet attachment for long as bub preferred to sit upright. I’d highly recommend the pram for anyone looking at a middle of the range pricing for top of the range quality.

A great and light weight pram! – This pram is very lightweight but has big tires which makes it great for all terrains. The suspension is great, it was never something I worried/thought about when on my walks. I would give the comfort a 9/10! The bassinet has a nice cushion and the seat lays all the way back to make nap times comfortable. The pram also has many air ventilation panels that you can open on those hotter summer days to allow some air flow! Show details
Good pram but not perfect – Nice pram to use and gets alot of comments on how good looking it is. Easy to set up once you get your head around it. Not the most space saving design, hardly fits in my wife's new vitaras boot so it wouldn't be suitable for most smaller cars. And the push handle could be longer for taller people but it's definitely not terrible. Show details · 1
Everything you ever need – I bought a redsbaby jive 2 for my baby who arrived sept 2019. Since then it has been everything we need. They really have thought of absolutely everything when it comes to this pram and it covers all age stages. The ordering and delivery was seamless and the accessories are brilliant. I’m so pleased we chose a redsbaby pram, and since I have gotten mine all my friends have gone on to buy one too and ditched their other prams!! Show details · 1

Worst pram ever can’t even go over a palm fond – Had it replaced twice, as though an issue as could never go up gutters like a normal pram, couldn’t even go over a palm fond without getting stopped in my tracks, baby sits so low in the seat, basket is horrible falls down 24/7 then to use the second seat - see ya basket thanks for not coming … ever. Very disappointed and think it’s horrible all… Read more
these influencers are getting these prams for free then posting for them - to boost the sales. Even for example Chloe szep doesn’t even use hers she must hate it so much

No leg room for second seat – My 2 year old child is not comfortable at all in the second seat. The frame provides no room for her feet so she sticks her feet out of the pram and most of the time refuses to sit in the pram and says it is “too squishy” The front wheels don’t seem strong enough when going up the gutter. There is also no storage space once the second seat is on. I would not recommend getting this pram Show details

Poor quality product – Redsbaby are cheap and poor quality . We brought a Jive2 pram in September 2019. The batch number on the pram was from a recalled batch which was recalled by Redsbaby in October 2018. Why did they sell us a pram they knew would fail? Now stuck with a broken pram and been waiting for 5 days to a response from my warranty claim. Avoid at all costs - I would recommend buying from my established brands who value their customers.

Great Pram – Great pram, nice and compact and easy to use. I love the look. Show details
Good pram, but has some major flaws – I purchased this pram in 2018 and have now used it for two babies. On the plus side the canopy is great, the harness works well, my children have been comfortable in it and the airflow kit is great. On the downside, the basket is terrible and if you have two kids in the pram you completely lose your basket space, which you desperately need with… Read more
two kids. The basket barely fits a nappy bag and is definitely not big enough to get groceries in or a picnic rug, baby stuff and snacks. The break has been fixed twice and is still broken. It only releases on one side. If I were going to buy a pram again, I’d definitely go the metro over this one. You should check out the Redsbaby Buy and sell Facebook page for more feedback.
Good, solid pram – We have been very happy with this pram as a single seat pram. It has all the features I wanted and is solid and easy to use. Only disappointment is the additional seat, it is not well designed and the clips underneath the basket come off constantly. I wouldn’t recommend this pram if looking for a dual seat option.

Was a godsend! Best pram – This pram has seen me through 2 children over nearly 4 years. Its great to use a double or single pram. So easy to assemble and dissemble. Any issues, customer service was quick to find a solution and so kind. The extended canopy is amazing and so versatile. Best pram Show details
Poor quality – After using this pram for 2 years my 2 year old had his feet up on the belly bar and it snapped at the hinge. As a product sold as as a “product for life” I expected better. The plastic at the hinge is very thin which you don’t realise until it’s in 2 pieces. It has always been very well looked after and stored indoors when not in use so deterioration isn’t an issue but poor design and quality. Show details

Love Love Love – So happy with our pram. Stylish, comfortable for Bub, light enough for me to lift post berth. Most importantly so easy to collapse down! So happy with our purchase we have since bought the skip stroller and Hilo high chair. Can’t recommend redsbaby prams/ products enough! Show details · 1
This is a Perfect pram! – This pram is exactly what we were looking for. It is very easy and comfortable to maneuver.

Love the airflow features. My child loves the pram, very comfortable and snug in the bassinet. She often sleeps in it at home as well. Show details · 1
A perfect stroller – This stroller has absolutely everything you need, handles like a Ferrari and fits in our boot. It has been our secret weapon in getting the little one to sleep and has helped getting us out for daily walks in quarantine. Show details · 1

Perfect! Exactly what we were after! – Product was exactly what we were looking for. Is not too bulky and not heavy. Love that it has the compatibility to change and transition between bassinet for baby and seat for toddler/young child. Love the airflow features on almost every panel which is great for an Australian Summer. Show details · 1
An absolute perfect pram in every way – The pram preforms well and smooth on all different surfaces but the bassinet does bounce/wobble alittle back and forward. The prams suspension is pretty good nothing to complain about My child loves the pram, very comfortable and snug in the bassinet, often falls asleep when we go for walks Show details · 1

So incredibly happy with this pram – We were looking for a pram for my whole pregnancy and we left it right until the last minute when we went to the demo day. The jive2 platinum is the best pram! Light weight, easy to fold up and put together. I love how you have the bassinet and the normal seat as options. My son loves it and we are so thankful for Redsbaby! Show details · 1

Excellent pram for all round use – Really happy with the pram, stylish and smooth to push even with one hand. Very sturdy as well. I'm quite tall at five foot ten, and it is only just high enough for me with the adjustable handles so consider that as my only suggestion. Proud to walk my little one with the Jive! Show details · 1
Such a perfect pram! – I am so happy with the recent purchase of our pram. It was recommended to me by multiple people and I can see why. Really easy to adjust/set-up, and smooth to manoeuvre compared to other models I trialed. The storage basket is a great size too, which is great! Would definitely recommend. Show details · 2
practicality meets style and budget – The pram is easy to manoeuvre, easy to change seats to suit baby needs wether it be capsule, bassinet or standard seat. The fabric is easy to wipe clean and has plenty of padding to support bub. Makes going for walks a pleasure and puts my little one to sleep. Ease of use is also a bonus, packing up and setting up is all very easy. Overall can't say a bad thing about it Show details · 1

Love the pram, my only dislike is the collapsible basket – The pram has stylish finishes and beautiful detail. It was very easyto assemble, I had no issues doing it on my own. The pram is compact enough and handles really well around tight corners and spaces. Show details · 1
