Mothercare Urban Detour Parent Review

Quick Summary: It's easy to steer and it's a great off roader, so ideal for those walks along the bumpy park roads or even on the beach.

Whats good?

• Easy to steer
• Grows with child and great for using off road

Whats not so good?

• Quite heavy to lift

My Mothercare Urban Detour travel system is a 3 wheeler pram, khaki in colour. It came with the car seat and all the extras. I've used it for both my children and it is still in excellent condition. I'd definitely recommend this pram.

It's easy to steer and it's a great off roader, so ideal for those walks along the bumpy park roads or even on the beach. It folds down easily and fits in to your boot with room to spare for everything else you need. The pram came with everything I needed such as cosy toes, changing bag and a tyre pump. The car seat slots easily into the pram so I never had to disturb baby whilst they were sleeping. The pram seat itself can be reclined so baby can lie and sleep or sit up; again that's very easy to do.  It's a heavy pram to lift in and out of your car but that is the only downside I've found.

All user reviews of Mothercare 4-wheel Journey

Pushes nicely.

Pushes nicely. Bit bulky when folded - has anyone taken it on a plane? I am due to fly on holiday and don't like the holiday pushchair we just bought I want to take this Mothercare Journey pram but not sure if it's too heavy or bulky to fit in the cabin.

Happy with the Journey so far, and the price was great

• Great price
• Adjustable handle
• Wheels that can't puncture
• Lovely included cosy toe
• Front wheels get stuck in small ruts/uneven paving (a lot, where we live)
• Brake can't be applied with buggyboard attached
• No fastening for rain cover in car seat mode
• Basket inaccessible in bassinet mode

I bought this travel system whilst pregnant last summer. I wanted solid wheels, having had many a puncture in the past, with previous, tyred pushchairs. I specifically wanted a bassinet, not having had one before with my previous babies. However, my baby is long, so has almost outgrown the bassinet in three months!

We haven't used the car seat much, but have used the bassinet almost daily. I like the adjustable handle, but find it doesn't feel as sturdy as other pushchairs I've had (a lot, over the past twenty years!). I like the basket size but can't access it with the bassinet in situ. Our change bag is backpack style, so has to lie on its back under the bassinet - not great for preventing milk spillage!

Overall, I'm happy with the Journey so far, and the price was great. I like the included footmuff and raincover, although there's nothing to hold it in place when using with the car seat. A clothes peg or two were my solution to that problem!

Other than noisy wheels, I am happy with it

• usable from birth
• price was nice
• the wheels rattle

The wheels are rather noisy. Other than that, I am happy with it.

Turning feels very hard

• 2in1 solution with a travel system option
• adjustable handle
• frame scratches easily
• driving& turning is hard
• heavy weight
• fiddly buckle

To me, turning feels very hard. The overall push is kind of cumbersome. Maybe it's because I am short, or maybe it just doesn't fit me, idk. But I feel like working out when pushing it. I can't wait for the time when we swap for a buggy.

It has done it's job

• comfortable
• a bit bulky
• two-piece fold

A great pram, really! It has done it's job, even though there were a few things I would change about it.

I like the style and the affordable price

• The steering
• The basket size
• The folded size
• The car seat is not comfortable

It's quite large, but that also means room. I like the style and the affordable price. I am also happy about the steering qualities.

A large pram, but it feels durable

• Performance

We love it. It's a large pram, but it feels durable.

Great value for money

A great value for money for those savvy moms. Sturdily bult, and nice-looking. Just the fold is a bit difficult, and yes, it is not the smallest pram.

The 2in1 pram/pushchair system is practical, even if maybe not the most long-lasting

• carrycot space
• practical features
• two hand fold
• not much suspension
• foam handle
• handle adjustment is not very smooth, like something is wrong inside
• fabrics are not machine washable

I liked the sturdy chassis and a flip-flop friendly brake 👏 The ride is a bit stiff, however, and the fold is quite bulky, so that is good to know beforehand. The 2in1 pram/pushchair system is practical, even if maybe not the most long-lasting.
