I love this travel system. It's built to last and is of a good quality, I know I'll be using it with future children. My husband chose this product because of how easily it is to push compared to similar pushchairs. It is very easy to swap from the carrycot to the car seat on the base if needed. It has a lovely big basket but can be difficult to fit larger items if you have the carrycot attached. I like that the carrycot can be used as an occasional over night sleeper and my daughter sleeps very well in it. - Strengths:

I found this product really easy to put together. Changing from the carry cot to the seat was easy and putting the car seat on. Very easy to steer even with one hand. Only thing is the harness if too loose even when it’s as tight as it goes my daughter leans to the side but she seems comfy - Strengths:

I love this pram but had a few problems with it. Firstly the front left wheel buckles now and then. But it is very good to steer if wheel doesn’t buckle. Secondly we have the pioneer expedition and when the carrycot base is on you can not get anything underneath into the basket without lifting carrycot off.

Completely in love with my Silver Cross Pioneer Travel System! It is very stylish, easy to steer and has a great size basket. It's a real head turner and the carrycot, seat and car seat are clearly of a very high quality! I find the frame quite easy to fold down and up too. The chassis is a little bulky and takes up a lot of room in my small car boot but I can live with that given how lovely the pram looks. Yes a bit on the pricey side, but you definitely get what you pay for with this travel system. - Strengths:

I love this pram! It is great for when you and your little one are out in your own as it is so easy to fold meaning you can get the baby and pram in the car without difficulty and it taking a long time. I think the only issue is how bulky it is, it would not fit in a small car. - Strengths:

I love this pushchair. So easy to fold away. The basket is really big compared to other pushchairs. So easy to steer. The only thing I would say if the wheels on a curb they bend slightly so I have to be careful. - Strengths:

In love this product despite my one bug bear regarding the folding. I always find myself having to put the seat on the ground to get the wheels out of the boot which isnt ideal in wet weather but i suppose this is the same for other travel systems which is why in wouldn't be put off buying the product again.
I love the styling of this product and it is really easy to steer and manoeuvrer with one hand. The basket is a good size to store shopping whilst you can also balance a changing bag on the edge as it hangs over the handles. - Strengths:

I love this pram
Looks great smooth to push. Love pushing my little one around in it. Such a good quality pram feels like would last forever.
The only thing I would change is how heavy it is and quite bulky. Struggle to fit in a small car. - Strengths:

It is a great pram with the big wheels but the handles aren't great they tend to bend if you put the changing bag on them. Which curses the handle hight not to click on probley. But other then that it is a good pram. The way it folds down is great really quick and easy and fits in the boot of a standard car quite comfortable. - Strengths:

I have the special edition pram set, it’s easy to put baby in and out of both parts. The basket is larger than the wayfarer which I liked as I can put a lot of shopping underneath. This pram should last a while. Easy to fold up and down and has different settings to put the push chair part either straight up slight incline and fully back to a lying position so baby can sleep. I’ve had a lot of people comment on how nice this pram is. - Strengths:

I love this pram a great purchase. Isn’t the easiest to unfold though and I personally would have preferred the bar to go at the top for my baby as it’s too low when used for the buggy part. - Strengths:

beautiful pushchair overall. I love mine for shopping. Its easy to push 1 handed and has a huge shopping basket, although if using the carrycot, the shopping basket is quite hard to access. You have the option of swivel or locked wheels and its easy to change, locked wheels are great if your off roading. When folding and opening, its very simple and quick however still quite bulky once folded down, i can however fit it into a ford fiesta i just loose half my back seat as wel as all boot space. My little one finds both the carrycot and pushchair comfortable enough for sleep, however the frame has had to be returned to silver cross for repairs and the catch on the extending handle on one side has broke, they were very willing to repair it however could not give me a loan frame. Overall I still love this pushchair. - Strengths:

I love this buggy and the accessories that come with it. Silver cross are meant to be an age old trusted brand and they have have proven why. There deliver scheduling worked out perfectly and we are over the moon with the storage, weight, size, durability and functionality of the buggy. It is usable by all ages of person in terms of complexity and weight and can handle a good level of usage. The only time I have struggled is using the cup holder accessory and have ended up not using it as it is quite low for me to use and I find make the buggy wider and less usable in public places. - Strengths:

I would highly recommend this travel system, it looks stylish, easy to collapse. when pushing its very smooth and the handle is easily gripped but very comfy. its easy to change from carrycot/seat to car seat as long as you remember the car seat adaptors. Only complaints are that when the carrycot is on the frame it leaves very little room to put items in the huge basket underneath. - Strengths:

This pushchair is definitely worth the money..... Very durable. It has great features and can be used till 3 years! I have found using this pram/ pushchair easy and very comfortable..... The handle moves up and down to suit your height....
It's a little hard to use the basket when it's a pram. But it's a great size. I also did put my car set on this when I needed to quickly go to the shop or nip into the Dr's etc which was a god send when my little girl was getting heavy. - Strengths:

Car seat adaptor clips.

Easy to fold using just two clips and folds down to quite a reasonable size. It also isn’t too heavy so can easily be managed on public transport. It uses only one clip to unfold, making it super quick and easy and manageable with just one hand. The mattress for the carrycot is comfortable for my baby and she sleeps well in it, even overnight when needed. The basket under the pram is a great size and good for storage. The only problem I’ve had is with the car seat adapters. If you don’t click the car seat into them right the car seat can get stuck, which is a pain. Also, if you forget the adaptors their is no way of attaching the car seat to the chassis. - Strengths:

I love my pram, the storage space is excellent, I can fit my whole weeks shopping in the base and more if you’re really good at Tetris. The folding of the pram is super easy and surprisingly good at fitting in boots. The only problem is the wheels, for being designed for city centres, I can stuck on the tiniest of stones on the pavement and it’s not just because I still have my L plates on! The wheels get jammed super easy making going up curbs or getting in and out the house difficult. I’m theyre always twisting in on themselves and buckling up which often takes away from the joy of pram, and devalues it in my opinions. After paying all that money for what I thought was going to be the best pram going I’d like to be able to get out the street without tripping up! - Strengths:

Firstly let me say I love this pram, it looks so classy with its very distinctive silver cross design. It is so easy to use, putting up and down is quick and folds quite compact considering how robust it is.
Here are my top 5 bit
The cosy carrycot is perfect for my newborn
The colour packs available are fantastic, I’ve become slightly addicted to getting more of them and changing them (look for them second hand as they are quite pricy to get new)
Adjustable handle so my other half can change quickly
Easy to steer
Chair can be used world or parent facing
Things I would change
Access to the basket is limited when the carrycot is on, I end up posting my shopping though a small gap
The front wheels can get caught and stuck on curbs easily
