Overall great pram, would purchase again – Overall great pram. Basket is spacious, pram steers easily, looks great. Only criticism is the fold is a little clunky and can sometimes take a few tries. Show details

Do not recommend! – I really wanted to love this pram so badly but I regret buying the metro 5!!! Not worth the price, doesn't come with accessories. Bassinet is flimsy, almost feels like it's about to fall off or tip over. The rain cover has velcro but doesn't stick onto the bassinet so when the wind blows, the cover is blown away. Show details

All in One – Light pram with easy fold and unfold. My mother got it for myna born daughter as a gift since she travel to Australia and want me to get a light and easy to travel pram so I can take my baby by myself. I do truly recommend it, it’s stylish, light, comfortable for both, and really modern and most important so easy to use. I have it in grey and I… Read more

love it! It fits perfect in the car too! My husband is happy with it as well since the color, height and style suits for both.

After looking a lot with my mother we finally got the Metro 5 which comprises everything we were looking for. Last but not least you can watch the video and it’s exactly the same and it explains you all in details.

Also the client support it’s amazing and really helpful!!

Thank you so much!

I'm amazed after using the Redsbaby brand for the first time! – The pram is well-built and feels robust, ensuring the safety and security of the baby during walks and outings, thanks to its well-designed wheels and steering system, making it easy to navigate through different terrains. Compact and Foldable: One of the standout features is its compact and foldable design, which is convenient for storage and… Read more

transportation, especially for families with limited space. The pram provides a comfortable and cozy space for the baby. The seat is well-padded, and the adjustable recline feature is excellent for accommodating different preferences. The pram includes sufficient storage space, with a roomy basket beneath for diaper bags, toys, and other essentials, making it practical for parents on the go.

Metro5 - Faulty bassinet, long resolution – We bought the Metro5 after testing a friends and reading so many positive reviews. Once we received ours.. we noticed our daughter HATED the bassinet so we avoided it. We started to try use it a little more once she was a few months older and she still hated it. We then noticed the bassinet was tilted backwards (so her head was lower). To use the… Read more

pram, i had to hold it level with one hand and steer with the other. After a few emails back and forth, initially being told i didn't set the pram up properly, we were sent replacement adaptors. We replaced the adaptors.. and still our bassinet attachment was tilted backwards. I sent another email and explained it seemed the bassinet was faulty with photos showing how unlevel it was still, i received a reply saying a replacement would be sent. Almost a month later... and we haven't received said replacement bassinet. My first email was sent 24 November 2023 and it is now 8 February 2023 with the issue still not resolved. I really wanted to love the pram and wished this was all resolved much easier.

We ended up having to swap over to the seat earlier than recommended and just tilted back as far as possible for when we have had to use the pram. Giving a 3 star reveiw as that attachment/frame seem good and the staff member who took over after the initial being told i had set the pram up wrong was helpful.

Ultimately, our pram we paid $949 for has rarely been used the ergobaby 360 mesh carrier has gotten a workout and is 10/10!

So far so good but a little counterintuitive – We’ve only just put our pram together. Little things made this complicated like the basket arrived inside out so we struggled trying to fit the poppers for a while before pausing the video and matching the lines on the basket with the lines on the video. Also the wheels were locked and we had to google how to unlock them separately to the main… Read more

installation video. Not a big deal but frustrating for first-time parents who’ve made an expensive purchase and worried they’ve chosen the wrong pram.

Also the handlebar is adjustable but again we had to google that separately. The only obvious button for this was actually the button that folded the whole thing in half so that wasn’t ideal. I’m sure we’ll get used to all the quirks but the setting up was indeed a frustrating process.

Now it’s all done though, it’s moving smoothly and the different components come in and out as needed with ease. Very nice, good quality pram. Happy with the purchase but perhaps the video and instruction manual could be clearer.

Love my second purchase of metro! – I purchased a metro in 2019 which lasted well over the last 4 years. With additional babies I wanted a refresh so purchased the metro 5. It’s lighter, fancier and has some improved features which I love! I take the pram everywhere and have never faced any issues. The only downfall was there’s no option/stock to purchase a pram liner. I chose the… Read more

light grey coloured seating (previously had the khaki metro2) and am very conscious of getting it dirty from kids shoes etc. I contacted customer support who were unable to provide a date of pram liner restock. I’ve then had to purchase a cocoon that I can use as a liner instead in the black and waiting for it to arrive. The metro 2 had a liner with a leather flap on the end which was great and wish I could get the same now. However overall, love the improved break, frame colour in the black, and overall navigation. Always recommend Redsbaby and love seeing my babies grow with this brand! High chair included!

Reds baby Metro – I was so excited to receive this and I have nothing but good things to say about it! It is light weight and compact which is great if you have a smaller boot in your car like myself, it is easy to steer and we are more than happy with our purchase! Highly recommend. Show details

Best Pram you’ll invest in – This was such a great purchase. For our first baby, he loves a good walk in the stroller/bassinet. It’s smooth on the path and performs well on other terrain. Very stylish aswell as practical with the basket underneath. It has plenty of space to carry everything you need for any outing. It’s easy to assemble and disassemble into the back of the… Read more

Pricing was affordable in the middle range of redsbaby prams. What makes a great selling point is you get both the interchangeable bassinet and the seat so you’re baby can comfortably transition when they start to grow.

We love our Metro 5. I don’t think we could have invested in a better pram.

Love the look but hate seat height – I love how this pram looks especially with bassinet, how neat it is and easy to maneuver. With the seat part on however, I feel it's set very very low. If I could buy an attachment to raise the seat to the height the bassinet I would. It would make so much more room in basket which is really restricted in this position. Suspension isn't the best but fine for city. Show details

Not sold on it yet – Light pram with easy fold and unfold. Fairly easy to steer one handed but has occasional front wheel stiffness. Hood doesn't protect from sun on bassinet and additional purchase has to be made for both bassinet and seat separately. Bigger wheels may help with all terrain as it is difficult to push across soft grass.

City only: not for regional use – We’ve been using our metro5 pram for about 6 weeks now. We live in regional Australia, so that obviously influences my thoughts and comments below. Firstly though, the pram is beautifully styled and well made (with caveats below). It looks good, but we also appreciate the minimalist styling that keeps the design relatively compact and simple. My… Read more

main issue is with the wheel size and wheel compound. The giveaway is in the name of course; Metro. For city environments (shopping centres, smooth paths), this pram would be close to ideal. In regional Australia, I would say it’s largely unfit for purpose. I completely understand the benefits of smaller wheels, but in regional Oz, our paths are mediocre at best. Moving this pram over uneven ground and less-than-smooth paths is more difficult than it could be. I’d trade a little more control and comfort over supermarket manoeuvrability any day! The compound allows for little vibration dampening. Too solid. Why not air? At least then users could adapt their pram to the terrain. Also, I’ve had a number of occasions where the front wheels have jack-knifed. Again, I don't believe this would ever happen on smooth surfaces but on our paths, it’s problematic and at worse, unsafe. I literally don't feel comfortable using the metro outside of the shopping centre.

Handle is poor. I don't understand why pram designers don't take note of ergo road handlebars. The angle on the metro handle puts the wrist in a natural position making long walks more uncomfortable than it should, and most importantly impacts grip. Needs to be flatter - say an angle of 20 degrees instead of 45-ish or just round.

What I would love to see: A model called the ‘country’ which has slightly larger, air wheels. A more ergonomic handle, and a better canopy adjustment system. That would be perfect :-)

Highly recommend – We originally bought a different branded pram but it was too big for our boot so upgraded to the metro 5 and I have 0 complaints! I love that the bassinet can be used independently, it has a large undercarriage for all out bits and pieces and it handles great not just on smooth surfaces but on bumpy foot paths too! I can even steer one handed… Read more

without strain which I couldn’t do with my previous pram. I also really appreciate the air vents on those warmer days. Very pleased we upgraded and so is our little one.

Best pram at the best price – After searching and looking into many prams, this was the best choice I made. I love the simple look and frame. It has a much larger basket than most and the bassinet is included where most are more expensive with the bassinet extra. It’s also capsule compatible which was a must for us. It has all the accessories available you would want and all at the best price. Show details

Luxe pram at an affordable price point – Beautiful pram. So easy to set up, fold down, take apart for transport. I adore the fabric and colour of my cinnamon edition. Feels so luxurious and the bassinet is the perfect cosy spot for a new winter baby. Excellent turning circle and manoeuvrability. Sturdy. Show details
