Urban Detour Pushchairs

by PramLady

Urban Detour pushchairs are sold exclusively through Mothercare, in their shops and online. They are a good value for money brand that make funky but practical pushchairs. Generally Urban Detour pushchairs are well designed and well made, and quite a lot cheaper than some of the other well-known brands.

You get just as much style and functionality as most of them but without a designer price tag. There are a couple of other brands close in price but Urban Detour are without doubt the cheapest so if you are on a budget and these 3-wheeler pushchairs have all the features you need you can’t go too far wrong. Make sure you read all the technical specifications before making a decision but they are definitely worth a look.

Mothercare’s current Urban Detour line in stock includes the Urban Detour Vesta 3-wheeler - Sunshine and a twin buggy the Urban Detour Odyssey Twin 3-Wheeler Pushchair - Sunshine for those you with two babies or planning a larger family. As well as the best selling Urban Detour Xtreme 3-wheeler travel system - Silver Grey.

The Urban Detour Vesta 3-wheeler - Sunshine is Urban Detour’s lightest 3-wheeler at just 10.2kg. Compare this to some other 3-wheelers and you’ll see that it’s at the lighter end of the scale, which is always a bonus if you travel a lot or just generally to make life easier getting around, in and out of shops, and tackling stairs. It is also very maneuverable as it has a double front swivel wheel and it’s smooth over grass and bumpy surfaces.

It is a funky 3-wheeler with a black hood on a lightweight silver frame and a striking yellow and grey reversible, washable seat pad. It is suitable for babies from birth and the seat has 2 adjustable positions. The only common criticism I have heard about this pushchair though is that seat position is a little too laid back for some children so it is worth trying the buggy out before you buy it, or getting a cushion to go in it. You can always return something you’ve bought on line if it hasn’t been used and you do get a 6 month guarantee with this pushchair if you have any problems.

It has an easy fold mechanism and is fairly compact when folded but check out the dimensions and whether that will fit into your car and the storage space in your home before you buy. This is really important to think about as if you have a small car some pushchairs don’t fit easily, this one does fit into a Ford KA though which is a fairly good indication that it’s compact. There is a covered bumper bar for your baby’s safety and it comes with a hood and a Mothercare Weathershield™ to protect your child from wind and rain. This is completely clear so your baby can still see what’s going on all around. There is also a large shopping basket that fits underneath.

The Urban Detour Xtreme 3-wheeler travel system - Silver Grey is a reliable, sturdy, adaptable travel system. It is an excellent value for money 3-wheeler travel system package, including a pushchair, infant carrier, fleece-lined cosytoe, Mothercare Weathershield, change bag, change mat and pump. It really is easy to fold with the one-handed folding mechanism and it’s easy to steer as well. It is suitable from birth so it’s cost effective, as you won’t have to replace it as your little one grows.

The pushchair has a multi-position padded seat with adjustable calf support to suit your child, quick release wheels that actually work for easy transportation and storage, pneumatic tyres that make for a smooth ride even over rougher terrain and a pump just in case of punctures! There is a hood with a viewing window that folds up leaving a mesh summer hood for added ventilation. It has detachable bumper bar, a shopping basket and a matching baby change bag included. And of course it comes with a car seat that can be used alone as a baby carrier, rocker and low seat, or attached to the pushchair to form the 3-wheeler travel system. The car seat is easy to fit and take out of the car so you can move your baby easily without waking them. This travel system comes with a 12 month guarantee but you shouldn’t have any problems with it.

The Urban Detour Odyssey Twin 3-Wheeler Pushchair – Sunshine is a stylish pushchair that combines the popular 3-wheeler look with the practicality of seating two babies or children of the same or different ages. It has all the same safety features of the other Urban Detour pushchairs and is also great value for money, robust and practical.
