Lovely
neat tidy box, no excess packaging. Product looks really lovely on the bike
itself. No excess packaging, great!
Nicely illustrated on the front. Claims
it only takes 20 minutes to put together, even pre-reading the instructions,
and having to get extra tools to complete the fit (which weren’t supplied or
specified) it took over an hour and a half to fit. Think the seat and support
bar are really well made and look and feel more comfy than a normal bike seat. Good value if you buy it at the earliest age
and weight it is suitable for, for a heavier child nearer the top age bracket
range you will get very little use from it.
I would purchase if my child was younger. I would recommend as I think it is a lovely
product and is great to be able to interact with your child rather than trying
to turn to talk and hear them. My son loves this as he gets to see more than he
does in our rear bike seat. However he does look rather awkward in it as he is
a tall child at 1 metre, and at the top of the weight bracket of 15kilos. If I
was to recommend this to a friend I would advise them to purchase it once their
child is comfortable to sitting to get the most out of the product especially
when it is double the price of traditional bike seats. I would definitely use
it on future children very happily as I really love the product. Jillian Forsyth – Finlay 3 years

Seat
looks comfortable. Support bar looks
clunky. The packaging adequate. The
contents were well protected. The design
(image) on the box was fine, not particularly special but showed exactly what
was inside. The instructions were clear and we had no trouble following
them. It wasn’t particularly clear how
the front support bar connected to the frame. The quality is excellent although
the support bar could have a nicer finish.
A quick release system would be preferable to the nuts and bolts
although we did remove the support bar after each use as it is heavy and the
bike is regularly used for a long commute.
Also, it should be made clear that this product is only suitable for
metal framed bicycles. It is liable to
scratch your paint finish. This does
represent fairly good value. We would
consider purchasing and would certainly recommend. Our 3 year old absolutely loved the
seat. It was much better than a rack
mounted rear seat that we have used in the past. Balance and handling was great. We went on longer and faster rides that we
would have with other seats and our son never complained or felt unsafe. James Hawkins – Corben 3 years

When
the box first arrived was not at all impressed by the packaging, but once
opened it was a different story. For the price of the item (which is at the
higher end of the market) the packaging looked cheap. The royal blue box with
low standard stock library imagery. The imagery also like very American. Instructions are clear, precise and well
executed. The finish, materials and craftsmanship were to a very high standard.
Both my children were very comfortable. Good value for money if you cycle a
lot. Take myself for example. A weekend
cycler. I would say no. kids are messy and so is cycling and this item is one
that you would want to keep nice. A near impossible task with the two combined.
However for its comfort and weight balance it does offer something that’s
unique. If I had the budget, I would love a second so that both our bikes could
seat our children in comfort. One of our
bikes is drop handle bar so we would not be able to fit this without changing
bikes too. I would recommend as I feel
that it is a good quality seat and offers comfort as well as safety. Good
quality, slightly high on the average person’s budget. Very comfortable. If the
price was right and it would fit my second bike I would definitely consider it,
although probably wouldn’t give it a second glance in its current packaging on
a shelf? Fun, enjoyable days out. Kids
loved it and will be using it lots. Thank you for the chance to test this
product. Charlotte Rudolph – Ruby & Dillon – 2 & 1 Year
