What to Look For in a pram pushchair (Read the Full Article)

A stylish and elegant pram that is fashionable and practical. It's simple to put together, can convert into a double and features large storage space.

This brilliant best travel pram system makes it easy to "future resistant" by adding an adaptable car seat and carrycot. It can be folded neatly and easily with just one hand, and is able to stand when folded.

Seat

It's likely that your baby will use the pram frequently and it's important to ensure it's comfortable. Find models with comfortable seat padding, adjustable handlebar height, and recline feature that allows you to put your child to sleep. Make sure that the pushchair features a 'parent-facing' (or rear facing)' or 'world-facing' feature if your child wants to be able to see more of what's going on around them.

The Graco Near2Me has an interesting feature that allows parents to keep their baby close and maintain eye contact. Jaya, our parent tester said this is an excellent option for infants and newborns.

When you're choosing a stroller, it's important to consider the overall size. You do not want to be concerned about it taking up too much space in your home or car. Choose a model that can be folded up easily and is compact when collapsed to ensure it can fit. You can check whether it is easy or difficult is by reading reviews (like those on MadeForMums).

A good quality pram must fold completely flat, allowing your child to lie down comfortably for the first six months of their lives. This is crucial for their development. Check that the pram you're interested in is able to do this and that it is compatible with a car seat, if needed.

Wheels

The wheels of a pushchair pram are what make it move and provide your child the mobility they need. There are three wheel types - rubber, foam and EVA (harder plastic type). Each wheel type has pros and cons depending on the way you plan to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are most common and provide great grip on all surfaces. They can be punctured by using a compressor for car tyres to blow them up too hard. However, this is usually due to someone over inflating them, and isn't an everyday problem. This type of wheel is usually used on all-terrain buggies and buggies that run.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are filled with foam, making them lighter than rubber tires. They also don't offer the same shock absorbing ability and can feel more hard on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are seen more on prams than strollers and are typically the lowest cost option.

EVA also known as Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a material that has the properties of rubber and is also lighter. It can be used to replace PU or rubber in your pram for its low maintenance and weight reduction.

It is essential to have a reliable brake system in your stroller. This will ensure the safety of you, your child and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs have brake pedals located at the rear of the chassis and can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars or pressing down with your foot. The brakes must be easy to operate and should lock immediately when you press them. Some pushchairs also feature an in-wheel brake to provide stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is a lightweight portable cot that attaches to the chassis of the pushchair. It is a fantastic option for babies up to six months old since they must lie flat and be able to breathe, which is crucial for their lung and spinal development. A carrycot-equipped pram is a great option for parents who have little space, a small boot or who use public transport frequently.

Some prams come with a built-in carrying cot that can fold into the frame. This lets you quickly change between the carriage and seat modes. This is a great choice for families with limited space in their car or who use public transport frequently. It can save you time and effort. The iCandy YOYO2 has been highly evaluated by MFM home testers, and was awarded Gold in our previous MadeForMums Awards. It's an excellent choice for parents on a budget, as it is affordable, yet has a luxurious look and feel. It's also sturdy, lightweight, and compact when folded.

If you're looking for a luxury single to double pushchair that can be used for babies from birth and is used with a carrycot, the Mountain Buggy Twin Plus is the perfect choice. This gorgeous pram comes with a lay-flat carrycot an sling seat made of fabric and a baby cocoon to create the most comfortable sleeping environment that is safe and comfortable for your twins.

It's also a soft light-steering, nippy rider, which is ideal for urban environments. It is easy to traverse busy roads and pavements while on the move. It's also extremely easy to set up and comes with plenty of accessories like rain cover, footmuff and hood.

Canopy

A pram canopy will protect your child from the elements while providing a cozy place to sleep. It can also help prevent heat stroke and sunburns by blocking the harsh rays of the sun. Some models feature the option of a peekaboo window or the back mesh to monitor your snoozer's little one without disturbing them.

A hood is especially useful in winter too as it protects your baby's sensitive skin from cold wind and rain. Certain models come with rain covers that can be easily popped over the canopy of the pram, and secured with poppers. You can also purchase a separate umbrella which attaches to the pram via magnets and is simple to take down when not in use.

The pram or pushchair for many years to come, so picking the right one is an important decision. As your child grows, you will need to ensure that they are comfortable and safe on every journey. A quality pram or pushchair will ensure your baby's spine is supported and ensure they are comfortable during long walks or bumpy rides.

Pushchairs can be converted into a seat once your baby is older. They are more adaptable than prams. If you're having trouble deciding which type of pram or pushchair is the best travel pram for your needs, our knowledgeable team is here to assist - give us a call or visit our store.

Stores

There are many options for storage for prams, based 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 weather and keep it out of the way when not in use. It's also a good option if you live in an area with frequent rainfall or snow.

A shed is constructed out of metal or wood and has an entrance door that allows for easy access. It can also include a lock and other security features. A garage is another popular option as it can provide protection from the elements while being close to your vehicle if you're using that for transport.

If you don't have a garage or shed, you can store your pram in a closet inside your home. This will keep it away from view and you won't have to see it when you go into your home or nursery. However, it may be difficult to access if you have guests coming over.

To keep your pushchair in good condition, you'll need to keep it clean. This will ensure it looks fantastic and is free of stains and mildew. Begin by vacuuming the hood using a small attachment or by rinsing it with cool, soapy water. Then, you can apply a gentle cleaning agent or fabric brush to remove any stains. Make sure to dry the fabric on the outside to prevent mildew and mould from spreading. You can also purchase a cleaner to get rid of the most stubborn stains and make your pushchair appear like new.
