I love this pram. It's versatile from Baby to Toddler. The fact that all the parts are transferable from carrycot to stroller means less items just hanging around between transitions. And it's so easy to swap it all around. The pram folds easily to fit in the boot. There is plenty of space in the basket to fit your shopping. The handle has different heights, which makes it easier for people of all statures to push the pram.
One downfall I do have with it though, sometimes the wheels lock. After releasing the brake, you have to roll the pram backwards before you can move forward, to release the back wheels. But overall, I highly recommend this pram. - Strengths:

I have a lot of love for this pram, it’s a beautiful looking pram/travel system, when team with the appropriate parts. The leather touch on the handle, which is easily adjusted for different heights. It’s easy to put the brake on/off. The fabrics are a lovely quality, As you’d expect from the silver cross brand. I teamed mine with the sheepskin liner which adds a special something. Only downsides, it’s bulky but then all prams are. It’s also got plastic wheels which are great in shopping centres but if you’re looking to navigate tougher terrain then you may be better off looking at the Silver cross wave.

As a travel system it does at it says on the box, however for value for money I have found many other travel systems that are more functional for a fraction of the price.
The wayfarer is a beautiful pram that is strong and sturdy, but it has a few major downfalls.
The pram has to be folded with two hands that can be difficult when also juggling a small child.
This is in no way a lightweight pram and if you have a c section you will struggle to lift the pram in and out of a car.
It is easy too steer unless you encounter a curb or a pot hole the front wheels are just not big enough to cope with ridges and you will have to lift the front wheels to get over the obstacles once again not ideal if you've had a c section.
The shopping basket is relatively large however access is restricted when using the carrycot.

The water is a brilliant model, I've had it since my first child's birth and going to be using for my second child. So it has lasted a good amount of time.
It has an extendable handle feature which makes it easier for my partner to push who is 6'4" whilst I stand at 5'4" So it works well for both of us.
Overall the pram is a brilliant make, very sturdy and reliable. Only thing I will say is it's not the most suited to rocky terrain like up in the woods, it's more suited to heading into town etc.

Fantastic pushchair system. The ability to attach all the elements makes newborn stage so easy. The reversible inside allows baby to be warm or cool. The flat Moses basket section is great for a travel cot as well my baby slept better in pushchair than next to me crib.
Only negative has to be taken in to two parts to fit in a boot - Strengths:

We love our Silvercross wayfarer! We have ours in onyx, purchased before birth for our little one. The pram came with the lovely lay down ‘cot’ like part that has the softest mattress ever. Before picking this pram me and my partner checked out the mattresses on the other peaks and none of them in the mothercare store came close. I also really like the chrome effect on my pram & the quality of the material is great. I also really like how easy it is to fold away. & how compact the pram is when placing it in the boot of my car. I have nothing negative to say about our wayfarer, me and G loves it!

Having used the Wayfarer for almost 15 months now, I've definitely had my fair share of use of the travel system.
As travel systems go, the Wayfarer was definitely on the top of my list when doing my research. The chassis feels like it is good quality, as does the various seat options.
I find it easy to steer, even one handed which comes in handy! Plus putting the pushchair up and down is relatively easy. It fits in my car boot easily but does take up a reasonable amount of space.
The different seat options (bassinet, car seat & older seat) are easy to remove and change over and clip in well to the adapters. - Strengths:

We had the Silver Cross Wayfarer for our first baby. The travel system provides versatility, and can accommodate the needs of your baby as they grow and develop. The lie-flat carry cot is perfect for Newborns, and the pushchair seat unit is perfect for when the little one is ready to sit up and look around. The seat unit can also be front-or back-facing depending on preference. When our little one first used the seat, we had her facing towards us as we pushed her, but as she got older we allowed her to be forward facing as she was so interested in what was going on around her. There is also car seat attachment which is extremely handy!
The pram itself is robust and easily manoeuvrable. The handlebar adjusts for your comfort and there are wheel locks for the front and rear wheels to keep baby safe. All attachments are comfortable for the baby with soft padding in the newborn carry cot and a padded liner is available for the seat unit.
There are optional extras available such as cup holders, parasols, rain covers... all of which provide that nice little touch so you can travel with your baby with ease.
I would recommend this product to any parent as it is a versatile and robust piece of kit. The only downside is the price. Whilst it is a brilliant product, I have seen similar on the market for a much lower price (however I have not tested the quality of these!).
All in all I would give this product a solid 8/10 - Strengths:

I have a love/hate relationship with this buggy. Its built well and I'm sure it will still be sturdy and looking fairly new once my children are done with it. I get lots of compliments about how it looks and often "Ooh silvercross, fancy" so the brand is well known. When I was using it with the carry cot it was tricky to get at the basket, which doesn'tfit as much as some other brands. The wheels are fairly small so it gets caught on potholes and stops very suddenly. It folds easily but needs 2 hands, it doesnt take up much less room when folded than when up. - Strengths:

This is a fantastic travel system that I've used with both my children. It's lovely to push and steers really well. The carrycot inside is lined and feels so soft. The covers are easily swapped over to the pushchair and I've always found the pushchair seat very roomy for a growing toddler. The basket underneath is fab for putting all your shopping in! It has a good capacity. The chassis folds down and the carrycot or pushchair seat fits nicely inside. It fits well inside my fiesta boot which isn't the biggest for getting a full pram in! The car seat that comes with this pram attaches to the chassis which is just great when you're only nipping quickly to the shops and baby is asleep! - Strengths:

I love my silvercross pram as much as my girl does, the only issue I have is that when folding you have to take the seat base off to fold, other then that I’ll give it 9 stars ????

I love this pushchair. The set I got came with the carrycot, main pushchair and carseat so it was super handy having the full travel system. It's easy enough to fold, except you have to detach the seat/cot to fold which is a bit of effort but not too bad once practiced. It does sometimes tip up if you aren't too careful on a bump and it's not the sturdiest off road, I wouldn't go jogging with it! But all in all I have to say I love this pushchair for every day use and it gets a lot of compliments! - Strengths:

Regardless of this pram taking up space, the way it looks and moves is just perfect. Stylish and modern. My little boy loves this. The three different height levels are perfect so when he needs a nap as we can lie him flight and then cover him over with the hood. To when he's wide awake and sat upright letting him take in the world. Fabulous smooth ride making our journeys out wonderful! - Strengths:

Everyone always comments on how beautiful this pram is and they are not wrong. The fabric is stylish and well made and overall the pram looks high quality and comfortable. However when it comes to using it Day to day we have a lot of issues. The wheels get stuck on the smallest of potholes or curbs and just going out for a walk is a real challenge. It’s also bulky when collapsed down and takes up the entire boot of the car. We have an Audi A4 estate so it’s not a small car either. The bassinet seemed quite small, my daughter grew out of it very fast and the straps of the seat aren’t very comfortable looking.
The recline on the chair is very good however it doesn’t lie completely flat. The sun good is also good and does help to keep a lot of sun off however there are some prams that have the sun hoods that come completely down almost which I think would be much better.

I love this pushchair. It’s a classic design and very comfy for baby. It’s easy to steer and push and plenty of space in basket. The wheels do take a lot of room but I have a small Kia picanto and it fits it the boot easily. - Strengths:

This pram/pushchair looks the part and is very nice to the eye. I get a lot of compliments when pushing around. You can attach the car seat very easy with attachments. The handle moves up and down easy and folds down and opens very quickly. When the pram cot bed is on the frame it is a bit hard to get to the basket underneath as it sits quite low but when the pushchair is in it is fine. You have have the pushchair facing both front and back which is good as lets the baby see in front of them when they are awake. My baby has slept in this since he was born as did not like his crib, it has made him feel safe because it is nice and cosy in there and the mattress is like memory foam so very soft. Very easy to wash too. I will definitely be using this pram for the next child too. - Strengths:

Loved this when I saw it! However now everyone has it and I'm seeing it everywhere!
It's so easy to use and love walking little one around in it. It is heavy and not easy to use with one hand.
It isn't the best if road/in fields/parks.
Would reccomend it. - Strengths:
