Mothercare Orb Pram and Pushchair (Liquorice Canvas)

Product Information

Folds easily and you can do it with one hand - although because the seat unit is separate it takes up quite a lot of boot space. Luxury quilted pram liner provides more warmth and can be converted to become a seat liner, and is machine washable Aside from compatibility with your pram if you want it, there are lots of important factors to consider when shopping for a new car seat. First is safety. All car seats used in the UK must conform to the United Nations ECE regulation R44 standard, or the i-size regulation R129 standard. There should be an 'E' label on the car seat which is proof that it meets appropriate regulations. The other clever thing is that the Orb also converts easily from lie flat pram to multi position pushchair without the use of a separate carry cot - a plus if storage is tight as it means you won’t have to store an extra piece of kit once you don’t need it anymore. We love the extra touches like the luxury quilted pram liner for added warmth that can be converted to become a seat liner, and it’s machine washable, too.

Luxury quilted pram liner provides more warmth and can be converted to become a seat liner and is machine washable Overall we have loved this pushchair as a family, there are so many positive points which outweigh any negative points including: huge sun shade, nice that it comes with the seat liner and footmuff, narrow enough to fit through all doors, handle fold down to make more compact if eating out, good all round suspension, large wheels to cope with different terrain, big easy reach shopping basket, parent and world facing seat which looks very comfortable for my son (he always falls asleep when in his pushchair. We are only having to change pushchair as we need something which is more compact for our car. It has been a great pushchair! Read more The swivel seat adjustment is great. However, the pushchair seat needs to be a bit roomier to accommodate growing toddlers.’ Tested by Charlotte Kewley, 32, M&B’s fashion editor, from London, mum to Isabella, nine months. She said:A popular pram that can have a car seat attached is the Orb from Mothercare, but what car seat fits Mothercare Orb? In this blog we'll help you to find a compatible car seat for the Orb and share some handy buying tips for car seats. What car seat fits Mothercare Orb?

There is no universal sizing systems used to manufacture pushchairs and car seats. Every brand, and even every model from every brand, has unique dimensions. This means that you can't assume any car seat will fit your pram. The Mothercare Orb is compatible with a few different car seats from brands other than Mothercare. Maxi-Cosi Cabriofix and Pebble infant car seats work with the Orb pram when you use a Maxi-Cosi car seat adaptor. The Cybex Q Cloud car seat can work with the Mothercare Orb but, again, a suitable adaptor is needed. Joie Gemm, i-Gemm and i-Level car seats are also compatible with the Mothercare Orb pushchair. Why don't all car seats fit all prams? Overall we love this pushchair! It looks very stylish and pushes like a dream. The large wheels and suspension means my little boy gets a lovely smooth ride. Also love that the seat converts into the carrycot which makes storage easier and less bulky. Top tip, we put a moses basket mattress in the carrycot (with a sheet on) for extra comfort. It also meant I could clean the cover easier and regularly. Also I wasn't overly keen that you could see the strap holes.It’s a sturdy yet sleek looking model, with a shiny aluminum chassis, with a choice of six colourways. The leatherette detailing on the handlebars give it an understated luxe feel, so the mid-market price tag comes as a nice surprise.
