Pros and cons

Pros

+ Good value
+ Narrow width
+ All-terrain – all wheel suspension
+ Suitable from newborn
+ Full recline
+ Big canopy
+ Bassinet included

Cons

– Big W only
– Small basket
– Not compatible with car seats
– Doesn’t have the cachet of big name brands
– You can have it in any colour as long as it’s grey

Bottom line

The Mother’s Choice Haven is not quite a $2000 Bugaboo but it is a solid pram for the price. It does tick the boxes with an included bassinet and all wheel suspension but doesn’t tickle the heart – it comes only in grey, grey and grey.

A lot of attention has been given to this pram with comparisons to more expensive models but the reality is, at this price point it is quite good value.

If you want just transport at the lowest price then this might be the right one for you, but if your pram is an extension of your personality then you’d probably already be looking elsewhere.

Why you would buy it:

You want something functional for a low price and really don’t care about the name.

Have you considered these prams?

Slightly cheaper

New from Redsbaby

Travel system compatible

Also good for travelling

  1. Love this pram and I’m due on April and every store I went to it’s very expensive especially with my income and I live in Wellington
