What to Look For in a Pram Pushchair

A stylish and elegant pram that is stylish and practical. It's simple to put together and converts into a double and features an enormous storage basket.

A great travel system that makes it easy to 'future-proof' by adding a compatible car seat and carrycot. Plus it folds neatly with one hand and is able to stand on its own when collapsed.

Seat

It is likely that your child will be using the pram often and therefore it's crucial to ensure it's comfortable. Find models with adjustable handlebars, comfortable seats padding, and a recline function so that you can easily put your child to bed. It is also important to ensure that the pushchair can be placed in either 'parent-facing' (or rear-facing) or "world facing" when your child is older and would like to see what is happening around them.

The Graco Near2Me has a neat feature that allows parents to keep their child close and keep eye contact. This is a wonderful option for newborns and babies and was praised by our parent tester Jaya as a great method to make your child feel special and loved.

It's important to consider the overall size of the pram before you choose one, as you do not want it to take up too much space in your car trunk or in your living space. To ensure that it fits it, pick a model that can be folded and folded compactly. Find out how easy it is to do this and read reviews (like those on MadeForMums) for a real impression of how easy or difficult it is to manoeuvre, fold and store.

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

Wheels

The wheels of a pram pushchair are what make it move and give your child the experience they require. There are three common wheel types: foam, rubber and EVA (a more rigid plastic type). Each wheel type has its pros and cons depending on how you intend to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are the most popular and offer excellent grip on all surfaces. The only down side is that they may be punctured if they are inflated too hard by the pump of a car tyre. However this usually happens due to someone over inflating the tires and isn't a common problem. This type of wheel is usually used on all-terrain buggies and running buggies.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are filled with foam, making them lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock absorbing ability and can sometimes feel more harsh on rough concrete surfaces. They are more commonly found on prams and strollers than on strollers and are the least expensive option.

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

The presence of reliable and strong brakes on your stroller is a crucial feature that will protect your baby, you and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs have a brake pedal located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a button or lever on the handlebars or by pressing down with your foot. The brakes must be easy to use and should lock immediately when you press them. Some Pushchairs Travel Systems have a mid-wheel brake for more stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is an easy-to-use portable cot that can be affixed to the chassis of any pushchair. It is a fantastic option for infants from six months old since they need to lie flat in order to support their lung and spine development. A carrycot-equipped pram is a great choice for parents with a limited space, a small boot, or who travel stroller by public transport frequently.

Some prams have an inbuilt carrycot that folds away into the frame of the pushchair travel system so you can quickly switch between carriage and seat mode. This is a great option for families with an insufficient car boot or frequent public transport. It will save you time and effort. The iCandy YOYO2 has been highly rated by MFM home testers and has won Gold in our previous MadeForMums Awards. It's also a great option for new parents on a budget as it's reasonably priced, yet looks and feels high-end and is robust, lightweight and compact when folded.

Mountain Buggy Twin Plus, an elegant pushchair suitable for double or single use that can be used from birth with a carrycot. It is the perfect option. This stunning pushchair comes with a lay flat carrycot plus, a fabric sling seat and a baby cocoon to create the ideal sleeping solution that is safe and comfortable for twins.

It's also a smooth, nippy and light-steering rider, which is ideal for urban areas. It's easy to traverse busy roads and pavements on the move. Plus, it's incredibly easy to install and comes with lots of accessories like rain cover, footmuff, and hood.

Canopy

A pram canopy is great to protect your baby from the elements while providing an inviting place to snooze. It is also great for preventing heat stroke and sunburn by blocking the harsh sun's rays. Some models come with a mesh back or peekaboo section that can be unzipped to keep an eye on the tiny snoozer.

In winter, a hood is an excellent way to shield your baby's delicate skin from wind and rain. Some models come with rain covers that can be easily put over the pram's canopy and secured with poppers. You can also purchase an umbrella that is attached to the pram with magnets and is simple to remove when not in use.

Stores

There are many options for storage for prams pushchairs, dependent on your budget and the space available. If you have space, a shed is a great option to protect your pram from damage caused by the elements and keep it out the way when it is not in use. It's also a good option for those who reside in an area that experiences frequent snow or rain.

A shed is typically made of wood or metal, and it comes with a door that allows easy access. It could also be equipped with a lock or other security features. Another option is a garage, which will protect you from the elements and also be near your vehicle if that's what you use.

If you don't have a garage or shed, you can store your pram in a closet within your home. This will keep it out of sight, so you don't have to look at it when you enter your home or your nursery. However, it could be difficult to access if have guests coming over.

You'll have to clean your pushchair if you want to maintain it. This will keep it looking good and free of stains and mildew. Begin by vacuuming the hood with an attachment small in size or by rinsing it with cool soapy water. Next you can tackle any stains with a fabric brush or a gentle sterilising solution. It's important to remember to dry the fabric thoroughly outdoors to stop mould and mildew from spreading. You can also purchase a cleaner that will help remove stubborn stains and make your pushchair look like new again.
