This pushchair is by far the easiest I have ever used!
Great for dog walks and lifting in/out of your car - so compact & light!)
There are gorgeous prints/ fabric selections and components all appear spacious for the age ranges.
I use to have this buggy and found it was so easy to use and fold down without any problems!
I do highly recommend this buggy as its easy to push and put down!
The main strength is the fantastic car seat that can lie flat in the car and keep your newborn safe!

Small basket and straps twist easily

I absolutely love this travel system. I was very important to me to get a lie down car seat and this was the only I’d come across and I also needed a buggy that was a good off roader and could cope with being pushed up and down the canal while walking my dogs. This system has far exceeded my expectations. My little boy has been cosy and comfy in both the car seat and the buggy and it very easy too use.
this pushchair is easy to steer and fantastic on rough terrain love how easy it is to swap between the carrycot and the car seat and the fact the car seat lays flat is great for sleeping baby only downsize is how heavy and bulky it is and it will not fit in a small car.
Easily foldable and lightweight and great to have a lie flat car seat
Weaknesses:
Sometimes find it a little difficult to connect the lie flat car seat to the iOS fix base

I love this push chair it's easy to handle, manoeuvrers easily and has the benefit of a lie flat car seat so my son can sleep in it and we don't have the worry of having to take him our or move him after 45 mins to 1 hour.
Carrycot lays flat so it's perfect for long journeys and don't need to transfer baby from carseat
Weaknesses:
I seems to get puncture way too often

I have Jane Matrix Slalom travel system and I couldn't ask for better pushchair. Carrycot lays flat and I don't need to wake baby up by transferring it from car seat into carrycot. Highly recommended.

Jané Trider matrix light 2 travel system / pushchair
Right, I love my pushchair. It's unique (got it in the brown edition partly because it was cheaper but also different! And doesn't show the mud), it's easy to use, steer, fold. Looks to be comfortable for baby as the bouncy along, always sends my girl to sleep which is a God send! The car seat/carry cot is PERFECT. Means you don't have a wasted carry cot they use two times and then stick in the loft. My carry cot carseat has been thoroughly used! Gave me freedom to walk to town and get a lift home without worry of car seats. My girl looks like she had space and it mean not waking her from car to pushchair without her being left scrunched up into a car seat. The seat unit for after the carry cot is spacious, comfortable, easy to attach and so light. The whole pushchair is a breeze to push my 5 year old can easily control it. The basket is surprisingly good, it looks small but I've managed to fit more in than I originally thought!
Cons- as I have said, I love my pushchair. My only real downsides are that the matrix car seat is on the heavy side, bit of a workout with a heavy baby in it. But not impossible for me. But if you had any reason why you wouldn't be able to manage doing some heavy awkward lifting, then definitely not suitable for you. The basket is a tad small, but I've never struggled to carry my shop in it, just know your limits. The price varies for colours, like most brands but again annoying if you love a blue but don't want to waste money on a £100 price difference. The bag included is basic. It's OK but nothing fancy or special.
Overall, a great buy. Great for woodland walks, beach strolls, shopping trips etc. I walk most places and for a walker this is perfect. May be a tad bulky for someone in a car 99% of the time.
I bought this pram with my first child 5 years ago and loved it. The feature of the carrycot turning into the car seat was the biggest appeal for me. You don’t have to wake your child up to change them to a car seat, the button to adjust the system is easy to push as well. The carrycot feature is amazing, allowing you to drive with the child laid down in the back meaning you can drive for longer without worrying about them being in the car seat for too long.
When the baby gets older the system does get very heavy to lug around! However weighing the cons and pros I kept it and I am going to use it with my next one! I love it.
I am in love with this pushchair, mostly because of the car seat. It has a lay flat option, is beautifully made and gives top comfort for baby. We used it for our 2nd child and plan to use it for our 3rd. It attaches easily onto the pushchair and the pushchair itself is sturdy, steers well and has great suspension - essential for those curbs! There is also plenty of basket space for all your shopping.
so i bought full travel system,i had my doubts but it is perfect for coty walks or nature bumpy walks.this travel system can hack it all.the firat stage attachment is brill to use from birth,it has straps for baby and it has clear instructions how to use it instead of a car seat.ots brill for longer journeys with young babies. the carseat attachment speak for it self.the third one which is for older babies and young kids is again perfect.it has 3 positions and my baby loves going for walks in it.all can be world facing or parent facing.all 3 are easy to take off for a wash in washing machine.this is the only pram i would recommend .n i have tried loads of them in my time
Everything in on word all rounder, easy to clean’ adjustable easily to every angle,very comfy in all around seasons. However, it’s have all features which is make its easy to use for outdoor.
Really enjoyed this pushchair . It is very sturdy for the bumpy walks. One of my favourites. Easy to fold. It is lightweight when pushing but is is a heavy pram. Would definitely regiment this though.
Sturdy. Well made. Beautiful to look at. Easy to use. Compact enough to fit in a car
Weaknesses:
Not necessarily a weakness but it can sometimes stick when trying to fold down.

I love Jane products. I have this as well as the twone and a few other accessories (such as footmuffs).
I think they are so well made, beautifully crafted and so safe and secure for baby. They fold down and are compact enough to fit in a smaller car boot. I have the isofix so I use the pram/car seat as main car seat. I love the fact it can lie down as well as sit up, so baby is always comfortable. Only thing I found was the rain cover did tear really easily next to the velcro.
I would absolutely recommend a Jane pram to anyone. Yes they can be expensive but fof a travel system we were willing to pay more and so pleased we did. The quality, the look, how its made is beyond incredible. You will not be disappointed.
Great pram built definitely for years. For me it's a little be heavy but comfy, cosy, well-designed, It can tackle rougher terrain and the ability to have the Matrix Light 2 as a carrycot or rear facing car seat is handy. If you want to go out for shopping remember about bags cos basket is small. Overall I love it :)
The car seat is a bit heavier and bulkier than others available but it is a small sacrifice to make for the convenience of the lie flat car seat. Our little one has slept for 2 hours whilst on car journeys in the lie flat position and not having to worry him being in an unhealthy position is very reassuring.
Can highly recommend this travel system
All terrain use, suspension gives comfortable ride for baby, easy to fold

I have used this pram for 21 months now and find it perfect if you live in the countryside as it really does go through everything. It is however very heavy and bulky so taking it in and out of the car can difficult and when used in cities its not very practical when you have to go up or down steps carrying both baby and pram.
I now bought a small lightweight pram that fits in my car and use that when we go into town.
The lie flat car seat that comes with it is amazing. That's the main reason we bought this pram. We were commuting every weekend for 3 hours at a time and they recommend not having a baby in a normal car seat for longer than an hour and half so it meant with this car seat we didn't have to stop half way. It is also suitable for overnight sleeping when going camping or to grandmother s house.
The normal car seat that comes with travel system is also very well built easy to put in and out of the car and looks safe and comfortable.
The pushchair seat sits high which is nice but i don't think my son really likes it as when world facing it doesn't allow the baby to sit up straight and the hammock isn't particularly comfy when reclined as it pushes the legs up.
All in all I am very happy with this pram and highly recommend it if you go off road a lot however if I lived im a city I would opt for a different model that is lighter and smaller with more basket space

I love this pushchair. It is bulky and heavy but great to steer and even my 5 year old finds it easy. The 2 in 1 carry cot and pushchair saves us a space in the house and I don't have to wake my little one to move him to car seat if he falls asleep. I love the idea babies can travel lying flat in a car and which makes it easier when we go on a longer rides. It is quite bulky and chase is quite big so won't fit in a small car or you won't fit anything else except it the boot but it has been great choice for my family.
I have dogs and horses so needed something tough and sturdy for use on muddy fields. I have to say the Trider ticks a all the boxes! I love this buggy! The interchangeable suspension and lockable wheel make this a true all terrain system! Tough through mud and bumpy tracks and easily turned while out shopping!
I also never realised how much I needed a lie flat car seat until I had one! No need to disturb those naps by putting in and out of the car. Also it gave us much more freedom to travel in the car for longer. My parents live a good 4 hours away so we were able to go to see them worry free. The only downside really is it is heavy once folded and it does take up a reasonable amount of space in the car. This doesn't bother us though as we have a big car and used to lugging heavy things in and out of it! In all, I am extremely happy with my Trider and feel it suits our lifestyle perfectly.
After a lot of research on pushchairs and talking to friends I knew that we needed a pushchair which had a pram element to it to ensure that the baby would be laying flat. In addition I was also really worried about car seats as I knew babies couldn't be in the car seat for more than 2 hours at a time without at least a 30 minute break. This gave us a dilemma as we are in the car a lot for work and for travelling between the North and South West. I also knew that we needed a pram that was all terrain.
Armed with our criteria we stumbled on the Jane Trider with Matrix 2 which after careful consideration was the one for us even though the matrix 2 carrycot is heavier compared to its competitors but it was an all in one solution. The matrix 2 is not great for long journeys as the baby can lay flat, but we have also purchased the mattress for the matrix 2 so that when we are away for the night the baby will be able to sleep in the carrycot as well. Its been a win win situation. The chassis itself is well built with the C section at the back so that I am not banging my ankles against the back of the pushchair ensuring I stand upright at all times great for my weak back. It also works for our situation as we live down a uneven drive way and I walk along many different bridle paths that this works really well for us. Its being a great addition for our growing family.
I had this pram for my first baby, and absolutely loved it. The fact the bassinet laid flat was perfect and it was great off road as the suspension on the tyres took the majority of the shakes out before the reached baby sleeping.
This is a great pram particularly if you spend a lot of time in the outdoors.

We love this pram. We got it when our son was born and are using it 3 and a half years later for our daughter. It's robust, stylish and great for anyone that loves the outdoors.
I have used this pram with both of my children now, it's brilliant. The lie flat car seat was the reason we bought it. It's easy to put together and take down. Secure in the car when travelling and doesn't take up as much space as other prams in the boot. It's great for shopping trips and a walk in the park. It's very sturdy and will last throughout. Amazing pram!
