ManoeuvrabilityThe Jet 5 earns strong reviews for its smooth steering and ability to navigate tight spaces, with the updated wider wheels providing better suspension.
Suitable from birthThe lie-flat seat means the Jet 5 can be used from birth, making it a versatile option for families with young infants.

Worth knowing
