    5 Stars A good high-end 3 wheeler 26/02/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good ride over rough ground, built to last, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not the smallest folded, not ideal for shopping trips

    (Edited 6/5/06 to include some comments from experience on the brakes, front wheel lock, raincover and off-roading!) (2nd Edit 2/7/06 - now I realise how the front brake REALLY works, do'oh!) After some research my wife and I bought a Jane Slalom Pro Matrix travel system for our baby daughter (born November 2005). This review concentrates on the pushchair/chassis, I've done another one for the Matrix seat so that I can be more specific in each. Why did we go for this system? - We thought that a "travel system" would suit us best - We wanted something suitable for going longer distances over ... more

    5 Stars The only pushchair you'll ever need! 09/06/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use, quite compact, robust, nice to push, fits in the boot of my fiesta!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The seat is quite big for a small baby

    When we found out i was pregnant with my first child in 2006 we spent months searching for the right pushchair, and the right pushchair we found. Although it was quite expensive then (they have come down in price considerably since) it was worth every penny. We bought the 'Matrix carseat' (which lies flat) to go with it to use as a pram, this feature we found to be excellent. My son preferred being in this carseat to anywhere else and as it lay flat i felt happy leaving him in it, he even slept in it occassionally at night when he wouldn't settle. The carseat is quite a bit bigger than the ... more

    5 Stars Jane Slalom Pro Pushchair 16/07/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Large seat unit, light to push, sturdy, handle height adjustment.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Heavy lifting in and out of car boot.

    I have had the Jane Slalom since my daughter was 9 months old. Was previously using the Jane powertwin. It has been a brilliant pushchair which is so light and easy to push on any surface. It folds compact and all wheels click off to make it even smaller. The seat unit is huge and is suitable for newborns as goes flat. It has a large hood which can be unzipped at the back and used as a sun canopy. The handle height is adjustable. I habe also the Jane buggy board which is really easy to attach. The only disadvantage I have found is that the frame is quite heavy in and out of the car but ... more

    4 Stars Funky mode of transport if mum has strong arms 27/08/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lay flat car seat, good manouvreability, large shopping basket

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Heavy carry cot, fiddly car seat fittings

    We purchased the Jane Slalom Matrix Pro for our son on the grounds that it fitted all criteria we were after, namely it had a lie flat car seat, it converted from pram to pushchair and it looked good. We have just moved him into the front facing pushchair (he is 5 months) as he was out growing the carry cot and was wanting to be more upright. Overall I have been happy with the Slalom, the main reasons being: * the frame is relatively light and fits into the boot of my Clio * it is very easy to manouevre and even the tightest of corners can be navigated one handed * the ability to move sleeping ... more

    4 Stars Great product - disappointing after sales service. 22/01/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Versatile system, Wheels are good on any ground.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Size when folded, fabrics cannot go in the washing machine.

    Purchased our Jane Slalom in May 2005 in Rojo - just before they brought out the 'pro' enhancements which was a bit annoying. We started off using the Matrix on the chassis, which was great for long journeys in lie flat mode and transferring to the chassis with little disturbance. Very snug for tiny babies with its own hood and apron. As my little one's back got stronger I could raise the back for her to see the world go by. However we were soon to find out that the matrix is unsuitable for some vehicles in the upright car seat mode due to seat belt length, and so in our Volvo our little girl ... more
