Opinion on the independent expert model
Despite manufacturers' assurances, independent experts conduct their own testing of popular strollers. Jetem London has been tested for compliance with European, American standards, as well as the Customs Union (Technical Regulation of the Customs Union). We will introduce you to their results below.
Baby comfort
Experts say the Jetem London summer cane is a very simplified model. It provides a minimum of amenities for the baby. The kit has the only addition for cold weather - a dense insulated cloak for legs.
Stroller Jetem London is positioned as a summer model. Despite this, there are no ventilation openings, as, for example, in Jetem Prism, in which a large mesh opens on the hood. There is no sun visor in the stroller, and in summer it would be very handy. Another accessory that the wheelchair obviously lacks is a rain cover. Probably, the manufacturer considered that a large hood would be able to cope with this function. In fairness, we say that you can purchase it separately for a nominal fee - 100 rubles.
Stroller Transformation
The disadvantages of the model are attributed by experts to insufficient depreciation: hard small wheels, as well as the absence of springs in the structure, poorly smooth out road bumps. The undoubted advantages of experts include light and soft upholstery, a large hood that opens almost to the bumper: even in the case when the back is in a supine position, the child can be protected from the scorching sun.
The child feels quite comfortable while sleeping on a walk: the back and the footrest of the model are easily brought into a horizontal position.
Security
The description of Jetem London, which is offered by independent experts, indicates that this model showed rather average results during rather complex and diverse tests: insufficient model stability and a weak footboard were noted. The stability test of the model was carried out according to the American standard ASTM F833 and European EN 1888.
For this, the stroller was loaded up to 15 kg and placed on an inclined plane in order to find out at which inclination it would lose stability. As a result, it was concluded that the model under study complies with the TS regulations and European standards - it is quite stable at an angle of 12 °, but significantly loses stability at an angle of up to 20 °, which is prescribed by the American standard.
Using a similar technique, the Jetem London brake was tested. In this case, the model passed the test with dignity - the brakes withstand the stroller at an angle of 20 ° with a weight of 15 kg.
Footboard strength
It was checked for compliance with the regulations of the Customs Union. For this, a load of 20 kg was installed on it for three minutes. The model stood the test with dignity - the bandwagon did not tear. At the same time, experts note that this important detail of the design is just a strong rubber tape. It is unlikely that she is able to hold the baby for a longer time than during the tests, if the baby stands on her.
Bumper and seat belts
These parts are designed to ensure the safety of the baby. The bumper of this model can be removed if desired. But in any case, the child should be wearing seat belts. Their strength is consistent with the regulations of the vehicle. This convincingly proved testing: belts were loaded for 15 minutes weighing 15 kg. They withstood, did not tear and did not unfasten, therefore, they are able to reliably fix the baby.
Parental comfort
The Jetem London stroller cane is equipped with a minimum set of amenities for parents: a large basket, an adjustable handle and mechanisms that are pretty manageable.
The model is equipped with a solid rubberized handle, which is adjustable in height. This feature is especially important for parents with unusual growth. Unfortunately, it cannot be thrown over, there is no reversible chair, as in more expensive models: the baby is always facing the direction of the road. Many experts do not consider this a big drawback: when a child grows up, he does not need to constantly see his mother.
When mom wants to see what the child is doing, she just needs to look into the transparent, large viewing window on the hood. The model is equipped with an integrated foot brake. In other words, all wheels are locked with one pedal, this saves mom's time significantly. This can not be said about moving the backrest to a horizontal position - its tilt is regulated with the help of belts. Its angle can be almost any, but it is necessary to make sure that the back does not warp.
The cover of the stroller is made of water-repellent materials, so do not be upset if the baby spills juice on the upholstery - it can easily be removed using a regular cloth.
The opinions of experts on the model’s basket were divided - it is too high, so some experts consider this a design advantage: it does not rub against curbs. Other experts believe that with the back down, you will not be able to get things out of it, you will have to keep all the necessary little things at hand or wait for the child to wake up. Although the phone and keys can be put in a pocket on the hood, this is a very important and convenient addition, which many European models lack.
Transportation and storage
Stroller Jetem London, like most summer models, is very convenient for storage and transportation. It quite simply develops like a cane, although there are models in which this process is as simple as possible - just pull on the strap for this. When folded, this model takes up very little space in the apartment. True, in this case there are some drawbacks - the wheels are located on both sides, and it is impossible to lean against the wall, such as a stroller-book.
This feature can be considered a drawback when transporting it in public transport - the wheels will dirty not only you, but also other passengers. The undisputed advantages of Jetem London include its low weight (6.5 kg). This model is easy to lower down the stairs, even with the baby in her arms. The stroller has a carrying handle, which greatly facilitates the life of parents. A small width of the structure (48 cm) allows you to transport it in any elevator.
Ease of control and cross
The wheelbase of the model under discussion consists of six small wheels with a diameter of 15 cm. The front two wheels are swivel, single, which provide good maneuverability. During the tests, the stroller easily went around obstacles, although not as maneuverable as the three-wheeled models. Small wheels Jetem London can not provide her with a high cross.
Experts tested the model on a lawn, flat floor, earth and sand. She moved easily on asphalt and floor, but on poor roads traffic was difficult. Therefore, if in the area where you live, the road surface, to put it mildly, is not the best, then it makes sense to look at more all-terrain models.
Accessories
This stroller has a small set of accessories - it's just a cape on the legs. You should buy a raincoat and a bag for it, which will be useful for storing the things the child needs. Fortunately, these accessories are commercially available and their value can be called symbolic.
Stroller Jetem London: owner reviews
We have presented you a rather detailed report of independent experts and specialists in the field of production of goods for children about this model. It remains to find out what parents think about it, which for a certain time have been operating the stroller.
Oddly enough, in the presence of certain shortcomings that experts were able to identify, buyers are more optimistic about the chosen stroller. Many parents claim that they never regretted this acquisition. The stroller has a large hood, an adjustable backrest, is compact enough, durable and comfortable for both the baby and mom. The model is functional and quite maneuverable in a city. The berth is spacious, which is not often found in cane strollers. Easy to manage and weight.
Buyers also found some drawbacks of this model: brake pedals too tight, the backrest is not fixed at 90 degrees, lack of maneuverability on broken roads and in the forest.
