Hi Natasha,

The JIVE 2 range is coming to an end as we have the 2020 range arriving in late February 2020. We have designed the new accessories to be compatible with existing models (like the second seat conversion kits).



Please contact customer care on 1300 344 964 if you have any questions.

JIVE²

Hi, i have had the tandem jive for a while now. I mostly love it but for going on walks on hilly surfaces it is not so enjoyable. I previously had the front wheels replaced as the pram was favouring one side steering-wise. However i have found (and it seems to have gotten worse since the children have gotten bigger), that everytime i try to cross the road with the pram the front wheels get stuck when i go to roll back onto a footpath and it is difficult to get the pram to go up or down any slopes without the front wheels catching and halting the pram. So you have to try and tilt the whole pram upwards at the front to get back onto a footpath... Should i be using the front wheel locks? Will this fix the issue? These are ordinary sealed roads and footpaths with some hills.

Hi BKL1983,

Thank you for getting in touch and we are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your pram. We recommend that when you are moving from a flat surface to a different incline, to pop the front wheels up and roll over the gutter or ramp using the rear wheels.

We would like to ensure that your pram is working as it should. Please reach out to the team on 1300 344 964 or [email protected] so we can assist as soon as possible.

Hi

Just got our Jive2 and are happy with it, just wondering if it's normal for the bassinet to wobble back and forward a little when being used, or if something is amiss.

Thank you

Hi Lauren,

Thank you for getting in touch

We've got a great video from our Redsbaby You Tube channel that shows the normal movement that your seat and bassinet should have, here is the link for you: https://youtu.be/5oUY2vyK3bw

If you feel that your seat or bassinet moves more than this amount, please take a short video and send it to [email protected] so that our warranty team can investigate this for you.

When assessing the movement, it is important to remember that you're able to move these parts by hand more than they would move naturally when the pram is in motion. There has to be the ability for these parts to move as they absorb the impact of when the pram is in motion.

Hi I have inserted the seat liner into my Jive2 Platinum pram. It’s not locking up when I want to pack the pram away. Am I bake to pack away the pram with the seat liner on?

Is it a Redsbaby liner? You shouldn’t have any issue folding down the pram with any liner on, I’ve used thin and padded ones (both not Redsbaby) and was still able to fold mine down.
Just make sure you push your basket at the bottom of the pram inward and ensure the straps are inside the pram.

Redsbaby
RedsbabyRedsbaby

Hi A.O,

When you are using the JIVE ² seat liner, you should be able to fold as per normal. We advise that the seat is fully upright and in the forward-facing position. When the seat is fully tucked in, you may need to apply pressure to the tip of the leatherette handlebar to lock the frame.

Please call the team on 1300 344 964 if you have any questions at all.

Hi, I’ve just purchased a Jive2 and cannot seem to lock the five point harness. Not matter what I do they do not clip/lock into place. Does anyone have any idea if I’m missing something or is it perhaps faulty?

Hi have you tired to click in and push backwards?

Hi Tay,

Thank you for your question. The 5 point harness clip does require you to place the clasps into the centre circle buckle and the press or 'click' the clasp back to lock it in place. I have added a video below for you:

Ours redsbaby jive 2 has a strange thing happening with the front left wheel.
It keeps sticking and dragging for a second every 5-10 seconds when moving. Seems like it is slightly raised off the ground.
Even when I swap the wheels the front left stays with this issue.
Any idea why?

RedsbabyRedsbaby

Hi Kurtis,

Thank you for your question, this doesn't sound like normal wheel function as they should continue to roll on different terrain (within reason) and shouldn't become stuck or be off the ground if you are on a flat surface.

I would urge you to reach out to customer care on 1300 344 964 (Mon - Fri 9am - 4.30pm AEST) or [email protected] so we can assist in resolving this for you.

Hi. Is anyone having problems about locking the 5 point safety harness on the pram? I have unlocked it and can’t lock it back. Won’t clip to the center buckle at all. I have Redsbaby Jive 2018.

Hi Emre,

Thank you for your question. The 5 Point harness buckle on the Redsbaby JIVE2 requires you to place the buckle into the circle clasp and then you need to press down (or towards where baby sits) to lock the clip into place. Please be in touch with customer care on 1300 344 964 or [email protected] if you need any assistance with this feature.

JIVE²

I recently bought Jive2 Platinum and still got the chance of 30 days return. I do love all the features of pram the only concern is about the fabric cleaning. I am not sure how important it is for the fabric to be washed in washing machine, as on the instruction of this pram it is recommended to clean it with sponge. I got the light gray color and really worried if it is going to be stained and dirty. Please if anyone has experience with this pram let me know how they deal with cleaning. Thanks!

You should buy pram linens so you can change and clean easily. It also give your bub a extra comfy seat

Beth

The guy at the demo recommended using baby wipes to clean. I also recommend getting the seat liner to protect it as much as possible. The good thing about the Jive is that when it folds, the seat is facing inwards which gives it greater protection from getting marks on it!

Redsbaby
RedsbabyRedsbaby

Hi Behnaz,

Thank you for your question. The Redsbaby JIVE and METRO are designed to be easy to use and easy to clean. Each of the material components is removable and each has their own care label to follow. We can recommend the seat liners as an easy way to keep the seat unit clean and the liners are easily removable and washable.

Hi just wondering if the bottom seat on the jive 2 tandem reclines?

Yes it sure does recline. There are videos on how to use the jive2 on their website which shows how to use the pram.

Redsbaby

Hi Holly,

If you are referring to the second toddler seat on the JIVE tandem, this seat doesn't recline. It sits as a static semi-reclined position which is great for your toddler when they are awake and also for naps on the go. Please be in touch with customer care on 1300 344 964 if you have any further questions :)

Can anybody tell me if the reds baby jive is ok for off road/ red dirt track walks? Where I live there re heaps of bush paths but are all unsealed red gravel and I want to know if the rocking/vibrations are ok for baby?

RedsbabyRedsbaby

Hi Kate,

Thank you for your question about the JIVE². Redsbaby prams have been designed for urban use and provide great performance on all terrain i.e. going for walks over gravel, grass being out and about (sidewalks).

Our prams (METRO and JIVE) both come with four-wheel suspension, which is based on an internal spring system (within the front wheel housing and the rear wheel axle).

Other features of the wheels which provide the best performance includes:

*Front swivel wheel locks: stability on uneven terrain and long distances
*Four wheel suspension: easy push and a smoother ride
*Four wheel design: optimum weight distribution, providing more stability on curbs and uneven surfaces

I hope this helps :)

Hi Marnie no bassinet needs to be on top.

Hi Marnie,

Thank you for your question. When using the JIVE² in tandem mode, the bassinet does need to be in the upper position. You can also use with a capsule in the upper position and of course, the seat. Please be in touch with customer care if you have any questions on 1300 344 964.

JIVE²

Most reviews on here come from parents using pram with one child, anyone have a review on using the aredsba y Jive as a tandem? Looks like when used as tandem the basket is too small for anything else? What about the bar in basket does that get in the way when toddler sits in the bottom?

RedsbabyRedsbaby

Hi Nita,

Thank you for your question. We have loads of happy families using the pram in tandem mode. The seat has a 17kg weight limit. You can fit a full sized nappy bag in front of the fold bar so you still have the beauty of a single-sized pram which can hold a second seat and still has room for nappy bag storage. Please check out the videos and photos on the website for reference. We also have demo days and encourage customers to bring their toddlers along if you would like to try them out in the toddler seats.
