Hi. Just found this as I was searching for "Mothercare Spin" on the B&B website. I have fallen in love with this travel system myself. The only thing that's a bit annoying is that it only comes in silver and black (although it is sort of growing on me a bit!!). I had read a review somewhere and there was a lady who said that she couldn't bring herself to buy it as the silver padding reminded her too much of Bianca Jackson's puffer jacket in EastEnders! I nearly wet myself with laughter! I went into MotherCare the other day and the lady there said that the Spin has been really popular but as it's a new product, she hasn't heard of any negative feedback yet. She also said that her manager had been to a meeting and that they will be bringing out new colours soon but she didn't know when. My LO is due 12 Jan so not sure if I will have time to wait for any new colours to come out. The other slight downside is that it's not compatible with an isofix base, but that's not really the end of the world. I think it is perfect for what I'm looking for, especially the fact that the chassis folds down really compactly and will therefore fit in the boot of my Clio. Good luck with your choice. xx

I saw this one today, and like it very much, but haven't noticed what kind of wheels there are? And what do you think about weight of it? Is it light?

the wheels are solid plastic ones.

Its not the lightest pram on the market but its not that heavy at all really and folds down really well and easily i could do it first try :blush
i think the weights ok - its 13kg - others ladies may not but depends what your looking for - it weighs around the same weight as say the silver cross, quinny or my3 my4 models

only thing thats disappointing is it doesnt have a matchin pram bag.

supposed to be bringing out different colours too next year.

we are ordering ours after crimbo really cant wait

Interesting


I saw the Spin pram today first time on mothercare's website. After reading reviews I want to see them in their store. Maybe I go today to see them. They look very good and practical. Hopefully my husband likes them too.

I would also like to hear Rachael1989's comments when she get her Spin pram.

Hi, Im looking at getting one of these too... I have a play around with it every time I go into Mothercare!! The only negatives I can see are that you have to completely take the top part off to collapse it (even in buggy mode) so if you travel by public transport at all, you need to keep it up... also have had one experience of not being able to switch the demonstration model from forward to rear facing.. the lady said you have to make sure its really in alignment with itself for it to work (may be a problem as it gets older?), Other than that I love it.. its so comfy and warm and the carrycot isnt huge so quite practical.. apparently its coming out in Green in March and other colours later, although I prefer the silver even for a girl. I am going to be ordering it after Christmas, unless I hear any drastic reviews about it in the meantime x
