Ordered online & arrived within days. Didn't take long to put together. Good suspension on rear wheels & large basket. Haven't used the carry cot as the pushchair yet but it converts with ease. Wheels easily pop off to fit in the boot of the car.Read more
It is a shame that an ISO fix base isn't available for it & it only comes with a rain cover for the buggy. You need to purchase a separate rain cover for the car seat - Strengths:

This travel system is brilliant. Initially I wasn't too keen purchasing it as I wanted to get a branded one but my mum (who has had six children including triplets) convinced me to go for this one after giving it a full test drive in the store! In comparison to the big brands the only key difference is the name and the finish. Aside from that the travel system is so mum friendly and idiot proof. It is also very compact and easy to put up and down. So happy I went with this rather than spent an extra £400 for brand name, plus this comes with a two year warrenty if anything breaks.Read more - Strengths:

Overall very pleased with this pram. I wanted something that looked nice and was sturdy for a budget price tag. At £299 you really can't go wrong. Includes pram Chassis, carrycot, car seat and rain cover. Also got the carrycot liner (worth £40) for free in a promotion. I particularly like the chrome detailing around the edges and have had many comments from other people about how nice to pram is. Very easy to manouvre and simple to attach carrycot or carseat to the chassis. Would definitely recommend this to anyone wants a sturdy, stylish looking pram without the ridiculous price tag.Read more - Strengths:

Having been using the journey travel system (4 wheeler, Teal) for now 5 months I can honestly say it has been on the whole- a very good system. Very very lightweight steering, very adjustable for height- handle extends quite tall (actually makes bridging the gap getting on and off a bus or up and down stairs somewhat easier). My only real gripe is that when folding the system with pram or pushchair attached that the chair itself won't fold too. Meaning it's much larger and more difficult to fit in boot of car, luggage rack on the bus. However, whilst baby still fits car seat, when travelling we tend to use this on the chassis as opposed to the pushchair. Also interestingly in this mode I have actually managed to fit my luggage (a small suitcase) in the base of this. Overall it's a brilliant system for the price range, and at £299 it's very affordable.Read more - Strengths:

We bought this when my son was a few months old to replace our very clumpy pram. It’s great for my Citroen c1 as it fits in the boot great and was particularly handy for the stage where we transitioned from lying flat to sitting as it can be fully tilted and you can completely adjust steering position. Downside was that the padding on one side came away and mothercare wanted to send the pram away so they could test if it was ‘our fault’ but with a little baby I didn’t want to be without my pram so went no further with that.Read more - Strengths:

This is a lovely buggy to use has easy handling, it can be hard to fold as you have to dismantle the carrier first so it dose take up a lot of boot space in a car but if you are just using it to walk every where then it’s brilliant, I have to take it up and down stairs every day on my own so I have noticed it now has started to squeak a bit but is still brilliant to use. - Strengths:

I bought this for my baby when I was pregnant. I wanted a travel unit that I’ll last years rather than months so I wouldn’t need to buy another pram as baby grows up.Read more
Firstly, the car seat is very easy to buckle up. It looks lovely, the material is very soft, but it is very heavy, which can start to become a problem as baby puts on weight.
The wheels are easy to put up, but is very bulky when folded down, if you want to put them in your car make sure you have a large boot. I have a ford titanium, and it takes up almost all our boot space. The wheels however don't look like they will last. I have been told you can get replacements online. My baby is two months old and we walk a lot, getting out whenever we can, I can see us needing to get new wheels within the next few months. - Strengths:

I have found this pram easy to steer particularly useful when you have children's hands to hold as well. It is edy to switch which seat you want on the pram and is very useful the seat can still be hoped fully back when the child is asleep in it . The rain cover unfortunately doesn't stay on well When using the car seat but fits snuggly with the pram as a bed or when using the seat. Is a little bulky in the car to have 2 pieced but as the wheels are removable we found this a small issue for a very good pram.Read more - Strengths:

I quote like our travel system. It's been great for all our adventure walks and I like that it can be forward or backward facing. Also love the extendable good for shade .
Bad points are that it's still quite bulky when folded . Other than. That it's a really good pram. - Strengths:

We love ours. We brought it in black and with the silver it looks very smart and a lot more expensive than what it is. It comes it lots of colours too, we took ages to decide what to go for. It’s very easy to steer - even for someone like me who’s super clumsy. I practised folding this pram away when heavily pregnant and found it was so light and easy that even with a giant belly I could do it in seconds. It’s just as easy now to do without the belly! One thing I have found with this pram is that it’s slightly on the large side when folded down, so when doing the food run I do have to cram things in my car - although my car isn’t massive so this may not be an issue for the majority of people. I cannot comment on the durability of the pram yet, as I haven’t been using it long but I would definitely recommend!Read more - Strengths:

Loved this buggy. It took my son from birth to 2 years old. He is a tall boy so could probably last longer if he was smaller. Only downside was that it took a few steps to collapse. The shopping basket is large and the handle can adjust to different heights - Strengths:

As a first time mother this travel system has been perfect for me and my daughter. It is quite light weight and easy to fold up and move in and out of the car. The car seat is comfortable and easy to move about. Is really easy to switch between the car seat and the bed/pushchair seat. Perfect way to move around with my daughter and keep her warm and safe. - 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.
