parents say thx^^

It met my expectations

3
  • light
  • spacious for a buggy
  • not lying flat

I bought a beautiful pink stroller with a crown for my daughter. It also had a small canopy. It met my expectations and my daughter slept in it. With the wheels we also managed the cobblestones in Prague, as well as the subway - I can only recommend it.

Your questions about the Mothercare Jive

1)

Hi, what warranty does the Jibe stroller have?

Is it just a year or more?

Thanks

Andrew

Hey, AJ,

The qarranty is usually depending on your country's law, and also on the place you buy it from. So the best is to check with the seller cause some only offer the warranty dicated by the law, while others offer a longer, extra warranty or plans to prolong the warranty.

2)

What raincovers fit this please?

Thanks

Heya, Tory,

Any universal one, however. the fit will never be too good. As this doesn't have a hood, the rain cover will be kind of falling down on the child's head, especially a cheaper one. Your best bet is a visit to a baby shop and asking for help / trying a few out, of you want an OK fit.

What is the durability of this stroller?

Hey, emily,

This is one of the simplest buggies on the market, and as such (plus the smaller double wheels), you need to count ion this being only for undemanding use, smooth surfaces, walk to the playground or for the mall. This is not a sturdy model, it is a simple model - but if used for such undemanding surfaces and not overloaded, it will serve and should not fall apart soon,.
