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 baby from house to car to buggy etc has proved indespensible
changing from pram to pushchair has been easy to do
My bug bears would be that the carry cot is heavy to lift especially when baby is getting bigger although it is easy to click in and out of the frame. My only serious gripe is that the cli[ps used for fitting the carseat when in lie flat mode are very fiddly and quite infuriating. If I could change one thing I would prefer to see a maxi cosi fitting for ease of use.
