Tested by mum Elizabeth Emmanuel for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

Love this pram!  It's strong and robust and a great height for baby. I like the waterproof big shopping basket and the fact that the hood has vents for ventilation.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

It's so easy to get close to baby as the height is ideal. It doesn't involve any bending down so it's easier on my back, and baby is closer to me.  My little one seems happier in this pram compared to the other ones we've tested!

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

It ticks all the boxes!

Best pram ever! I love that my little one is high off the ground.  Great for winter when the ground is so cold and he can be far away from the snow. The wheels are strong and sturdy as is the whole construction of the pram. Again thinking about the weather, the waterproof shopping basket is a plus!

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Not having to bend down is great, and I like that my baby can be so close to me. He enjoys peering out of the ventilation vents each side of the hood. It's very well-constructed and the seating is very well padded.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

I would have liked cosy toes to have been included.

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

I'd been looking forward to testing this pram and was not disappointed! Very well made and so easy to manoeuvre. It was ideal for bumpy park paths. It's also easy to fold and can be put in various positions.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

My baby was so close and there was no awkward bending down. Baby enjoyed playing peek a boo through the vests in the hood which can be covered when raining. Love that it's so high off the ground.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

Nothing to change!

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

My friends and I are all in agreement that this is the best pram we've tested.  It's strong and robust and great for all types of terrain. The wheels are great and the baby seems to get a very smooth ride.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Best thing about the pram is that baby is so high off the ground and very close to me. It's much easier to have face to face contact. The fact that no bending is involved puts less strain on my back which would have been constant bending. I do enough bending up and down!

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

Can't think of anything.

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

Loved the high seating position and the fact that it was so easy to maneuver. The wheels made going over rough areas of ground dream. The big waterproof shopping basket was a plus.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Not having to bend down to get close to baby is ideal. I think this was the best feature of the pram.

Tested by a mum Susan Ho for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

The easy steering and design really appealed to me. It has a good deep basket that is easily accessible and you don't need to move the chair to get to it. The handlebars are soft and easy to adjust and the way it moves over all surface areas is great. It seems very sturdy and secure. It is bulky though and takes up a lot of space. It does fold easily. Good design.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

I felt my toddler was secure and the seating position was great as I didn't have to stoop down low. I liked how easy it was to dismantle and adjust the height of the handles.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

I think it is expensive and bulky, I would like to see it more streamline and cheaper as you need to buy a carry cot for the first 6 months.

Tested by a mum Neil Sharpe for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

I like the chunkiness and design, it feels sturdy and robust. It was easy to assemble and fabric is easy to clean. Drives well and there is a good design quality and thought, with little touches like storage at the foot of the carry cot. Harness is easy to use but is a bit fiddly to set up. Bulky and I would like this to fold as a one piece. Handlebars adjust easily as I am tall.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Solid, secure and my toddler likes it. Legs do dangle on the footrest but the sunshade is good and keeps sun off his face. Good range of accessories. Expensive though.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

I think it could be sleeker, less bulky and collapse into one piece to reduce size.

Tested by a parent Wah Ching HO for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow parent?

It has a nice design and I found it really easy to manoeuvre and my grandson felt really secure. The straps were a little difficult for me to use and it was quite heavy to lift up and down kerbs. Like the storage space under the seat and the height of the chair.

How does this product make your life easier as a parent?

Easy to push and turn, good sturdy wheels and unit.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

Make it lighter and smaller.
