What to Look For in a Pram Pushchair

A stylish and elegant pram that is both stylish and practical. It's easy to put together, can convert into a double stroller and has a big storage basket.

This amazing travel system makes it easy to "future secure" by adding an adaptable carrycot and car seat. Plus, it folds up easily by hand and is able to stand on its own when collapsed.

Seat

It is likely that your child will use the pram often and therefore it's crucial to ensure it's comfortable. Make sure you choose a model with adjustable handlebars, comfortable seats padding and a recline feature so that you can easily lay your child down. It's also worth ensuring that the pushchair can be placed in either 'parent-facing' (or rear-facing) or "world facing" in case your child is getting older and wants to look around and see what's going on around them.

One of the cool features on the Near2Me from Graco is its ability to bring your child towards you at the touch of an button, which allows parents to keep contact with their child and keep them close. Jaya the tester for our parents said this is a wonderful option for infants and newborns.

When selecting a pram you should consider the overall dimensions. You don't want to to be concerned about it taking up too much space in your car or home. Choose a model that can fold easily and is compact when folded to ensure it will fit. You can find out the ease or difficulty it is by reading reviews (like those on MadeForMums).

A high-quality pram and car seat should be able lie completely flat when folded. This will ensure that your baby gets a fully supported lie down throughout the first six months, which is vital for their development. Check that the pram you're interested in is able to do this and that it can be used with a car seat in the event that it is required.

Wheels

The wheels of a pushchair are what makes it move and what give your child the ride they require. There are three standard wheel types: rubber, foam and EVA (a more rigid plastic type). Each has its pros and cons depending on the purpose you intend to use your pushchair for.

Rubber wheels are the most commonly used and provide great grip on all surfaces. The only down side is that they may be punctured if they are inflated too hard using an auto tyre pump. However it is usually caused by someone over inflating the tires and isn't a common issue. This wheel type is often used on all-terrain and running buggies.

PU or Polyurethane wheels are foam filled which makes them lighter than rubber tyres. They don't have the same shock-absorbing capabilities and may feel more harsh on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more often seen on strollers than prams and are generally the lowest cost option.

EVA or Ethylene Vinyl Acetate is a stronger plastic that is lightweight and has some characteristics of rubber, but not as much. It can be used to replace rubber or PU in your pram for its low maintenance and weight reduction.

The presence of reliable and strong brakes on your stroller is a must and will safeguard your baby, you and pedestrians. The majority of pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars, or by pressing down with your foot. The brakes must be simple to operate and should lock as soon as you press them. Some pushchairs have a brake on the middle wheel to provide added stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is a user-friendly portable cot that can be affixed to the chassis of any pushchair. It's perfect for babies and infants up to six months of age, since they need to lay flat to develop their spine and lungs. A carrycot in a pram is a great option for parents who are tight on space, have a small car boot or use public transport often.

Some prams have a built-in carrycot that folds away into the frame of the pram so that you can easily swap between carriage and seat mode. This is an excellent option for families who have a small car boot or frequent public transport. It will help you save time and effort. The iCandy YOYO2 is a good example of this and has scored well with MFM home testers, and also winning Gold in our previous MadeForMums awards. It's also a great option for parents who are who are on a tight budget, as it's reasonably priced, yet is stylish and luxurious and is robust, lightweight and compact when folded.

If you're looking for a luxury single-to-double pushchair that's suitable from birth and used with a carrycot or a baby cocoon, the Mountain Buggy Twin Plus is the ideal option. It features lay-flat carrycots fabric sling seats, as well as an infant cooon to offer the ultimate sleeping solution for prams your twins.

It is also a smooth light-steering, quick and nippy rider, which is ideal for urban environments. It is easy to navigate busy roads and pavements on the move. It's also extremely easy to use and comes with a range of accessories, such as a footmuff, rain cover and the hood.

Canopy

A canopy for prams will shield your child from the elements while offering an ideal place to sleep. It can also help prevent sunburns and heatstroke by blocking the harsh rays from the sun. Some models have the option of a peekaboo window or a back mesh section so you can keep an eye on your snoozer's little one without disturbing them.

In winter, a hood is an excellent way to shield your baby's delicate skin from the elements and rain. Some models come with a rain cover which can easily be popped over the pram's canopy, and secured by poppers. You can also purchase a separate umbrella which attaches to the pram using magnets and is simple to fold away when not in use.

Whichever model you choose, pram or pushchair, choosing the most suitable model is a crucial decision and one that you will be using often for a long time. As your baby grows, you'll need to ensure that they are comfortable and safe throughout every trip. A quality pushchair or prams pram should be able to provide a gentle spine support and keep them from becoming tired during long walks or bumpy rides.

It's worth noting that prams tend to be more geared towards babies and infants and babies, since they typically come with a bassinet, or carrycot that allows you to lay them flat, while pushchairs tend to be more flexible and can be converted into a seat as your baby gets older.

Storage

There are many options for storage for prams based on your budget and the space you have available. If you have the space, a shed is an excellent option to shield your pram from damage resulting from the elements and keep it out of the way when it is not being used. This is an excellent option in areas that experience frequent snow or rain.

A shed is usually constructed of metal or wood, and it is equipped with a door that permits easy access. It may also have locks or other security features. Another option that is popular is a garage that will protect you from elements and will be close to your vehicle, if that's what you want to use it for.

If you don't have a garage, or shed, you can keep your pram in a closet inside your home. This will keep it away from view and you won't have to glance at it every time you go into your home or the nursery. It may be difficult to reach if you are hosting guests.

To maintain your pushchair you'll need to keep it clean. This will ensure that it looks amazing and free of mildew and stains. Start by vacuuming the hood using a small attachment or by rinsing it with cool soapy water. You can then use a gentle sterilizing agent or a fabric brush to get rid of any stains. It's important to remember to dry the fabric thoroughly outdoors to stop mould and mildew from spreading. You can also purchase cleaning products that will remove stubborn stains and leave your stroller looking like new again.
