Parent reviews of the Roan Marita Prestige
- Spacious
- Rocking
- Can be folded up with the bassinet
- Colour does not fade even after years
- Cannot position the handle
- I miss swivel wheels
5 years ago the stroller suited me perfectly. Big, spacious, sturdy. Ideal for the terrain, rocks beautifully and goes through everything. The best thing is that the frame can be folded including the bassinet, no need to take it apart. Today I see a minor disadvantage in that it is quite heavy and the wheels are not locking - everything is turned by force, by hand. I also miss the handle positioning. Even after years it hasn't faded. Otherwise perfect!
- Spacious bassinet
- Rocking
- Head positioning
- Beautiful design
- Quite bulky for a flat and for the car boot
An excellent pram.
- Price/performance ratio
- Spacious (bassinet and seat)
- Rocking
- Can handle rough terrain without knocking the soul out of a child
- Robust and heavier stroller
- The basket is not as good as on other strollers
Beautifully spacious pram, rocking, goes over even the toughest terrain. It suits me both with the bassinet and now with the seat - I was worried about that because the seat had worse reviews. But I am satisfied.
The quality/price ratio has the highest rating for me. I see its weight and the related worse handling as a drawback, but I got used to it.
Perfect rocking stroller for a lying baby, went through everything beautifully in the winter. The seat is not bad, but over time it stopped working for us due to its weight and the space in the trunk.
Great handling, easy to unfold. Inflatable wheels suitable for winter and difficult terrain. The only downside was the brake, which I ruined my leather boots on, and also the bag, which didn't have a shoulder strap (had to be carried in my hand). But those are details...
- it rocksa beautifully
- spacious bassinet
- handles well
- easy to fold
- pushchair mode rather bulky for the car
For me a great stroller! I definitely recommend it to moms who want it to rock their baby beautifully. The bassinet is big and spacious, so even if you have a baby in summer or autumn, you can be sure that even with a footmuff you will be able to fit in it at baby's six months. My little one fit in the bassine at 10 months – and she's not exactly a tiny baby.
The seat is great too, just less compact in the car. A small minus is the bag with no strap (I solved that by putting a strap from my laptop and no one even noticed).
- Suspension
- Large carry cot
- Spacious basket
- Folding
- Weight
Plus points for the pram part, which is like a tank and can really go through any snow, mud, etc. thanks to the super suspension. It is "rocking", so the baby sleeps joyfully.
- Space in the car seat and also thebassinet
- There are no cons
Absolutely unbeatable stroller! All-terrain!!! Big, spacious! Great.
- Great for terrain
- The handle on the seat cannot be removed
- No extending of the hood
A classic, almost "retro" stroller.
- Large bassinet
- Rocking
- 4 same-sized wheels
- None so far
We don't use it yet, but I was surprised by the huge carrycot, which made me choose this stroller. It's not too luxurious, but comfortable for the little one.
Your questions about the Roan Marita Prestige
Hello!
At what age can the baby start using the seat unit, as opposed to the carrycot? Does it depend on which reclining position the seat unit is set?
Our kid is 5 months old, sitting with support but not yet sitting unsupported.
Thank you!
Hi, Hannah,
The right age and way to put your baby in the seat is well described in this article I wrote, literally because I had many mums asking me the same thing. Be sure to read it to know more.
In short, however, you should never put your baby in the sitting position if the baby didn't sit up by itself, and until that time, you can actually use the seat in the reclined position even right from birth if you need. So, your child can most certainly start using the seat if you use it in the fully reclined setup.
Does the Marita come with a mattress?
Hi, Tony,
Do you mean the carrycot of the Roan Marita? That, yes, comes with a mattress - all bassinets normally do come with a mattress included.
If you mean the seat and some kind of cushioning seat liner, that depends, but normally, no, there's no soft insert on the seat. Any universally fitting one should do, however - it just needs to be purchased separately.
I have the Roan Marita Prestige that someone gave me the fabric on the carrycot is looking worn out is there a way I can just get the new fabric without having to buy a new carrycot or stroller ?
Hello, there!
Well, no, not really, you can't just buy it, their spare parts are very hard to get by overall, and very rarely available - if so, usually through the seller/distributor, or directly from the manufacturer after contacting customer service.
From another point of view, to find a good seamstress, and have her made a copy based on the internal fabric that is able to be removed, this I already saw moms do in such a case. The same goes for seat upholstery and the canopy (on the canopy, usually removing means destroying the original fabric since it needs to be cut out).
If, on the other hand, the outside carrycot fabric is damaged, that is pretty much "glued" to the base and so cannot be changed - that would mean getting a new carrycot (or pram).
