Does anybody have a Jane Slalom Pro Pram? - Page 2

I got one 5 years ago and LOVED it... and I will definately buy it for my next baby.

The only fault for me was the car seat... when I took the (lay flat) car seat off I found it really difficult especially when I was on my own loading it in the car. I had many moments with it, I think people thought I was going insane when I was shouting at the thing to come off... I mean... I was lucky my son didnt ping out with me pulling and pushing for it to come off, id get one side loose and unlocked then id have to hold it up with great difficulty and try to get the other side.. NIGHTMARE!! But all in all, I did actually love it... VERY STURDY, I travelled with it all the time! I never had a problem with it... I am actually having to go back to England purely to purchase this pram as I cannto get one in the States where I live now!

it looks like I am going to buy one from a friend. It is in fantastic condition, and - although not the colour I wouldve chosen (grey oneside and bright yellow the other

I love it!!
She only wants £175 and that's for buggy, matrix cup, raincovet and the very warm footmuff - she also said she'd give me a special Australian parasol she had

I am so chuffed. I can't wait to use it!!
Ooooh, and the colour is growing on me!! Xx

oooh - and Kobbers - I think it now just 'clicks off' the chassis with a button in handle (I think??)xx

Thats the exact colour I have. Coal it is called. I love the colour and yeah the matrix just clicks off with a button on the handle. Have fun with it!

We don't have the Jane Slalom but we do have the Matrix cup car seat. The lying flat feature of it has really suited Ben. He absolutely adores his seat (see in my profile photo left) and if he won't sleep in his cot he will go straight to sleep in the car seat at night time. The seat itself is really sturdy, my only criticism of it is that its quite heavy to carry around.

I agree it is heavy but i do quite like that as it feels really safe and well made
