Otti Prams Urban Ranger Travel System Review (Pointers Print)

I was scrolling through social media when I stumbled across a picture of an Otti Pram and I instantly fell in love I knew nothing of the brand but it had instantly caught my attention, it was so unique and quirky, so when I was given the opportunity to work with Otti Prams and review one of their pushchairs from their fantastic range I jumped at the opportunity, I was made up and couldn't wait to receive it.

What makes Otti prams special?
The name was inspired by there little girl Otti and their children inspire the quirky prints, having 3 children they understand what parents expect and need from their travel system taking this into consideration they launched 'Otti Prams' which really has it all! The unique prints reflect who they are, and their dog actually features on the Otti Prams Urban Ranger Travel System  ( Pointers Print) which is such a lovely idea , this is the design we picked.

  Otti prams are completely different to most travel systems currently on the market, rather then dull basic colours Otti prams offer a range of classic and quirky prints which allow parents to express their individuality when they're out with their little ones.

   
Otti prams are made using high quality material as well as being very sturdy and stylish! Otti prams want to make a difference they work alongside to support Hope for children, for every Otti pram sold in the United Kingdom £30 of the price is donated directly to such a worthy cause. Its enough to buy a a new limb for child injured by land mines in Sri Lanka which means they can attend school. So as well as owning a beautiful travel system you are making a difference to a child's life!

For the past week or so Charlie and I have been testing out the Otti Prams Urban Ranger Travel System! Some parents choose to stop using their travel system before or when their child begins to walk for ease of travel or because their child is to big for a travel system and choose to move to an umbrella fold stroller. Charlie turned 2 in October and my initial thought was he was going to be too big, i completely ignored the fact the pushchair is aimed at children aged 0-4. When i assembled the pushchair and put Charlie in the seat unit position i was so surprised at how big it was, the seat is quite deep and to fit a 2 year old in is most impressive, he fits in comfortably and has plenty of room.

What's in the box?
- Chassis and Wheels
- Carrycot
- Seat Unit
- Rain Cover
- Hood, Apron and Cosy Toes.

I had no trouble assembling it, it took less than 5 minutes and it was so easy! I was so eager to assemble it I didn't even read through the manual it was really simple. It arrived well packed and compact which was so impressive.

     
                   

The Otti pram fits perfectly in the back of our car with no need to remove the seat unit from the chassis which is fantastic, its so easy to assemble and has a neat fold which makes it so much easier especially being 34 weeks pregnant I haven't  been using public transport as much, but i assume it would be public transport friendly since its so lightweight and not too big.

I love the design of the Urban ranger travel system it has such a quirky and unique print which is perfect for both Charlie and our baby boy when he arrives, it's perfect for any season! I love the Chrome Chassis, we've had so many compliments when out and about which was only expected because its such a beautiful print and most definitely a head turner the Urban ranger is also available in another lovely print which can be viewed here.

 
       

The shoulder pads and straps are very comfortable and so easy to release, especially with a fidgeting toddler. Not many pushchairs have foot rests which i find is a huge disadvantage but the Urban Ranger does cater a foot rest which is perfect for older children.


                      

Something i have found with previous travel systems is the shopping baskets aren't so big and are restricted when using the pushchair in different modes, however the Otti Urban Ranger travel system is the perfect size and easily accessible when the carry cot and seat unit are in use whether in the parent facing or world facing mode. This will be perfect when baby arrives so i can easily put Charlie's coat and bag in and still have plenty of room.

           

During the time I've been using the Otti Urban Ranger I have found it to be so easy to use and lightweight. It can be folded so easily by releasing leavers located to each side of the chassis. The handle bar is also adjustable so perfect for when Daddy is pushing it. The bumper bar is also easily removed for easy access to take your child in and out.

          

Over all the Travel system is so easy to steer and manoeuvre and performs a smooth ride on different terrains which is so impressive.

              

I love the wheels on the Urban Ranger travel system they are air filled which is my favourite type of wheels, they are perfect on all terrains which is great because Charlie and i are always going out for walks. The wheels are easily cleaned and always look brand new which is a bonus. They perform lovely and are great for going up and down curbs.

It literally takes seconds to add the seat unit to the chassis and can be switched to world/parent facing mode so easily. Another thing i love about  the Otti prams urban ranger travel system is the foot muff compared to most travel systems which offer the same type of cosy toes which is small and not snug Otti prams offer a  large thick fitting cosy toes which covers the seat unit and looks so comfortable, i love it! Although we wont be using when Charlie is in the pushchair we cant wait to use it when bump arrives.

 

           

Over all i really love the Otti Urban Ranger travel system and I'm so impressed with how it performs, its such a unique one of a kind travel system and like nothing you've seen before, i cant wait for our little boy to arrive so we can use it as a travel system, i will do a follow up review using the carry cot. Its the perfect pushchair and has everything you want in a travel system, I would definitely recommend the Urban Ranger travel system to parents who are looking for a unique and quirky travel system which is perfect for all terrains and reasonably priced, I wish Otti prams was available when Charlie was a baby because it took me such a long time to find the perfect travel system which fit both mine and my partners requests.

      

The Urban Ranger travel system can be purchased from House of Fraser here and retail at £225 which i think is so generously priced for the quality of the travel system and everything that is included, you can view Otti prams website here for more information about the Urban Ranger Travel system and to view their range.
