Best pushchair I have used, I really enjoyed how it was so light and versatile, moving from the carseat to the bassinet was so simple and easy. The pushchair had plenty of room and plenty of features, seat liner, footmuff, safety bar, raincover and the extendable hood.
The only downfall I could think of was that it wasn't ideal to fold down since you had to take it apart, carseat understanding however it would have been nice if the seat folded with the frame too. Otherwise it was an excellent pushchair and would always recommend. - Strengths:

So versatile and has been a lifesaver not having to worry about buying a separate car seat just yet as I don’t drive! It’s amazing for shopping as the basket underneath carries a lot. Bought for my first and intend to use with my second as well. The suspension is really good especially if your going over grass, baby is kept comfy and secure. It’s on the large bulky side however and takes up a lot of space in car boots.its very expensive for what it is as well, I went with mothercare as was unsure whether to trust an unknown brand but after seeing my cousins one which cost £100 less for the exact same thing. - Strengths:

Love everything about the pram especially the wheels clicking in and out so easily, so when they're extra muddy from walking we can take them off in the car. I really love this pram I just wish it had a foot muff for the car seat and a new born head rest insert. - Strengths:

I absolutely love this pushchair. It is great value for money and comes in lots of colours. Easy to use and keep clean. Only downside. Is they don’t do a twin/tandem so I was unable to keep when I found out I was expecting twins. - Strengths:

A great product for the price.
It is very easy to interchange between the car seat and the pram on the wheels.
The basket on the bottom is a decent size also for storage and the wheels are easy to fold up.
The only issue I have is that the car seat is not isofix so can be fiddley to get in and out of the car using the seat belt.
The system also come is a variety of colours. I ahve had mnay a compliment on the lovely blue of the petrol blue stroller. - Strengths:

We purchased the mothercare journey in sand before our little one arrived; the system itself comes with a car seat and pram Top which can be transformed into a pushchair as baby grows. The car seat itself is safe and reliable, lightweight also. The best part of the car seat is that it can be added onto the bottom of the pram for ease; we found this extremely useful when farting out of the car to grab something then back in, by putting the car seat directly into the pram it allowed he baby to sleep longer without being disturbed and also a faster efficiency in getting bits done (a luxury every parent cherishes) the pram is beautiful and very comfy for little one, the ease of then converting into a pushchair is a beautiful addition and allows an easy transition for both mother and baby. The only negative I would say of this system is the instructions that come with the system are awful and difficult to read - definitely check out the YouTube videos for assembly. The four wheels are fantastic and I’ve had no issues turning in corners, up and down pavement nor moving around in lifts - always an easy movement!

My boyfriend chose this pram when I was pregnant with my little girl (he chose the sand colour) it looks great with the car chair attached, the carry cot does look a little bulky and it can be a bit of a pain getting it on and off a crowded bus!
My daughter is still a tiny 4 month old (she was born at 30 weeks) so I've only used it as a carry cot and with the car chair so far. It's nice and smooth to push and manoeuvre but the wheels can be a bit of a pain getting stuck on the slightest little thing every now and again.. I have been using it since my daughter came out of hospital at 6 weeks old and it's been great so far, the one front wheel did drop off for some unknown reason (thankfully without my daughter in) but it clicked back in to place fairly easy and hasn't happened since (touch wood)
The basket is a decent size, can hold a decent amount of shopping.. there's also a tiny little pull down basket too!
Overall, for the price we paid (£199 in a sale) it's a pretty good budget pram! - Strengths:

It’s so lightweight, easy to set up when you first get it, easy to change from car seat to carry cot to actual pushchair. The base had a handle and folds easily. It’s so easy to push and is just amazing! It also has suspension so it doesn’t feel really bumpy. My baby boy loves his pushchair!!!! - Strengths:

Really lovley pram, easy to fit car seat to, and the actual seat for when they get bigger is so useful as it can go so many ways!!
It was a bit of a pain having to take it apart and fit the base bit (The wheeled bit) to the seat.. took up so much space in the boot of the car, But it has so may uses that you wouldn't really need to take much more. As it can be a seat, lie Flat and be like a cot, the back can be adjusted, as well as the leg and bottom area - Strengths:

This pushchair is amazing in the sense that it can be used from birth until the toddler stage. However, there are no straps to use in the newborn stage! Also, the car seat doesn’t last very long as babies tend to grow out of it around the 6 month mark, meaning it may be better to buy a separate pram and car seat. Furthermore, the pushchair isn’t too hard to fold but my fingers always get stuck whilst folding it which is quite annoying and painful.
Overall for the price it is a good product, but could be improved! - Strengths:

I brought this Pram for my First child. It is very affordable and such a genuine lovely Pram! I am very happy with my purchase! It’s easy to push, very handy to collapse ready to put in car! Also very comfortable for my son. If I was to have another child I would definitely buy this Pram system again.

This pushchair is a good budget option although I wish I had invested a bit more and gone for a different option.
It is easy enough to set up and usr and when in the carry cot position I had no troubles at all.
Now it's in the pushchair mode it's a bit more fiddly. The insert/liner is only attached due to putting the harness straps through the holes so it slides all over, especially if my son isn't playing along and wriggles. I've also had a few issues with the foot muff when in thus position. The zip sometimes messes up.
I was really happy with it at first but j don't think it has aged well...Been using it a year now. The rain cover has split, the foam handles seen grimy ( even though I clean it fairly regularly)
All in all it is ok - Strengths:

We got this travel system when we found out we were expecting our daughter. We wanted something affordable but built to last. This definitely ticks the boxes for us.
It comes in a range of colours which we loved. We went for teal!
You get a carseat suitable from birth plus a carry cot which then changes and adapts into your seat unit as baby grows! Meaning more space available in your house! Definitely bonus points for that.
It is very easy to change the carry cot into the seat unit. The seat can also forward face or world face, depending on what your growing baby prefers. You also get a cosy toes, rain cover and all the adapters you need to change from carseat, carry cot or seat. It is super easy to swap over. Just click it on and you're good to go!
The seat unit can fully recline and all you need to do is use one hand to pull the lever and adjust accordingly.
The travel system is very easy to collapse with one hand, which as a parent is definitely a bonus because we don't always have both hands free!
It collapses down to quite small, obviously not the smallest but it is a travel system. It fit in our boot very easily and was very light also.
As a family we like to go on lots of walks and adventures and we needed a travel system that had great suspension to make sure our daughter was comfortable on our walks. We were thrilled when this travel system did not disappoint on this aspect either and worked very well on our walks and adventures over all terrain.
I would recommend this travel system to any parent to be. - Strengths:

I love this as a pram, but now that my boy is starting to get bigger I’ll be buying a smaller pushchair. It’s definitely miles better than the travel system I had for my first child, but it takes up so much room and it’s a pain to fold away. It fits in the boot of our car, but not my grans. I also didn’t love the rain cover, it was a pain to put on and then it ripped on the 2nd or 3rd use. - Strengths:

This is my first pram/pushchair and I am extremely happy with the purchase. It is easy to steer and move around with. The travel system means it is not only a pram and a push chair, but it also comes with a car seat, which then can be attached to the frame. The only complaint I have is that it is a little bulky when folded away, but I can more than put up with that for the low price of £209! - Strengths:

Description
The Mothercare 4-Wheel Journey Travel System includes a Group 0+ car seat and pushchair suitable from birth to 15kg.
The 4-wheel pushchair features a convertible pram to pushchair seat unit which can be used from birth- a pram liner and apron are both included to keep your little one cosy and comfy on their first outings.
The seat unit with removable bumper bar is both parent and forward facing.
A cosy, coordinating footmuff and mothercare weathershield raincover are included with a spacious, detachable shopping basket and convenient magnetic pouch providing good storage.
To use the journey as a travel system simply attach the group 0+ car seat which features side impact protection and is suitable from birth.
The car seat should always be fitted into your vehicle rearward facing and secured with the seatbelt.
For newborns, the included liner and wedge can be used and removed from the car seat as your child grows.
The front swivel wheels allow the journey to glide easily over smooth surfaces making it easy to manoeuvre and when pushing on bumpy pavements or over rougher ground the wheels can then be locked into a fixed position to make steering the pushchair simple.
A height adjustable handle allows it to be comfortably pushed by parents of different heights.
The mothercare journey is free standing and small in size when folded and the removable wheels provide the option of freeing up even more space.
