Can’t really fault it – Being an active person, I needed a pram that fit my lifestyle and could go anywhere with me and bubs. This pretty much ticks all the boxes. It’s very well made, feels fabulous, get material, large storage underneath, bassinet and capsule compatible (with adapters), disc breaks, large canopy, 5 point safety harness. I could go on. I’ve had this pram for just over a year now and I’ve loved everything about it, save 2 things. Folding and storage: it is on the bulky side when folded, it does for in my i30, either flat in the back, or on its side. Standing it will stand against a wall no worries but it does take up room. Folding it takes some practice, the handle can be a bit tricky to figure out and sometimes it doesn’t lock on and I have to open and close it to get it to stay. You can’t fold it with the bassinet unless you have a huge boot space and it’s quite cumbersome. Weight: she is heavy, not to push! I have to stay to push it is light and so easy to manoeuvre, tight spaces, small corridors it does great. But lifting in and out of the car takes a bit of muscles and definitely a no no post c section.
However, all in all I love this pram, best 3 wheeler I’ve come across and a great running pram too !
Purchased in for $1,200.
Good running pram, robust – A smooth ride, effortless to push. Great for running. It is heavy and bulky so you’ll need a large boot space. But very easy to fold/unfold. Very good breaks for stopping and suspension and great tyres. The only down side is that it tracks to the left when I use the hand brake, haven’t been able to fix this, so running down hill and using the handbrake to slow me down isn’t possible as pram won’t stay on course.
Faulty handlebar 5 months old – We purchased the Uppababy Ridge and less than 5 months old and my partners fingers went through the foam handle bar whilst pushing it. They refused to cover under warranty and asked us to pay for repairs which would cost half of what the pram is worth. Not happy! Waste of money.
Purchased in for $1,044.
One lap of the showroom and you'll have to have it – I've been using the pram for 8 months now with bassinet from birth, and I can guarantee it was worth every dollar spent on it. We live on rural property and needed something that would handle terrain and it does that AND is swift and manuverable at the shops as well. It is easy to steer, glides along pathways and we have taken it on some very rough terrain with no issues what so ever. The suspension on the pram is brilliant and doesn't jolt your baby around, and the hand brake is essential and should be on all prams I think! It is definetly a pram for active people, as it is a large and heavy pram so you would want to only buy if you were prioritising your activities over compactness. I would not buy online without giving it a test run in store as it is very different to other prams on the market but I guarantee once you whip it once around the baby store show floor you'll just HAVE to have it. The finishes on the pram are high end and it is a pleasure to own.
