What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also known as a pushchair newborn, stroller or Sling, is the most popular mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort and design to make walking enjoyable for the entire family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a fantastic pram for newborns to 3-year-old children. The adjustable handle can be turned around to allow you to turn the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

You want your baby to be comfortable when you're out with them. There are prams that will ensure that your baby isn't shivering any sensations.

All the prams listed in this guide allow your baby lie flat. This is essential for newborns as it improves oxygenation and helps support their hips and spine. The seats can be adjusted to a more upright position once your child is able to sit up.

Venicci egg2 is a premium pram that has a cocoon-like feeling for your baby. It has smooth, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shaped seat which doesn't recline into an upright position however it does come with an upholstered mattress and liner. It's also lighter than many prams, weighing under 8kg. However, it has a sturdy chassis with finely textured leather and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.

If you're looking for something more affordable, but with the same style Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is another excellent choice. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as light as other prams, but it does have a large storage basket. It also comes with an extendable hood that offers UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby protected and shaded.

If you're a first-time parent we suggest you look into the travel system prams system bundle that includes a pram and a car seat that are attached to the same frame. This makes it much easier for parents to transfer their baby from the car to the pram without having to awake them. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and practical pram that is easily converted from a 'pramette' or lie-flat 'pramette, to a stroller for toddlers compatible with the Graco ISize car seat.

Safety

The pram should come with five-point safety harnesses that will ensure your baby's safety. It should also not have any gaps where their legs or heads are likely to get caught. The straps should be padded and easy to adjust as they expand. Examine the buckles on your harness to ensure that they are not cracked and show signs of wear. Many children are admitted to hospitals each year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. The most common cause of these injuries is tipping over. Even the most robust prams could tip over if you hook bags on the handles, or if a wriggling child can get in or out of the seat without harnesses being secured.

A common cause of injury involves falling from a pram, or stroller. If a child is not securely fastened in, they could fall out of the pram and suffer neck or head injuries. It is therefore important to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the correct position.

Some prams come with a reversible shade which can be used to protect your baby in either direction from the sun. This is a useful feature as you can avoid having to wake your child up when you are changing their position in the Pram For Newborn, or when you are going into and out of shops. Other handy features include a snack tray and drink holders for your infant or toddler, a shopping basket underneath the seat, and the handlebar can be locked into place when you're not using it.

Don't leave a baby sleeping in a pram if you are not within reach. Babies can be prone to wiggle while asleep and could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This could lead to strangulation and suffocation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a crib and should only be used for brief periods during the daytime.

It is necessary to take apart most prams in order to put them into the trunk of your car. This process must be mastered before you buy one. Also, check how it is easy to put the various sections back together and click them in place.

Durability

A pram should be able to stand up to the wear and tear of many years. You want to make sure that your baby's pram is able to handle slippery walks as well as a variety of car trips. You also want your pram to come in a print or colour that isn't prone to fading quickly so you don't end up looking like you've gone out of style.

The best prams are made of high-quality materials, and built to last. Look for durable fabrics, sturdy tires, and an effective suspension system. The top prams have a compact strollers fold, so they can be easily stored in your garage or the boot when not being used.

All the prams in this list allow babies to lie flat, which is essential for newborns because it improves oxygen saturation levels as well as aids in the development of their hips and spine. Some are made to grow with your child and some having a carrycot or a fully reclined seat that can be clicked off and on the frame when your child is no longer using it.

If you are considering buying a pram for the very first time it is recommended to consider a system that comes with a carrycot and car seats could be of interest. We love the Graco Near2Me system which our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It has an innovative feature that lets you raise and lower your child with the touch of a single button. This allows you to maintain eye contact with them and keep them close.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our tester Jess Bird tried with her two babies Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pram that can be transformed from a single pushchair double pram and pushchair in 30 different configurations. It also comes with a sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap, but you can use it for more than one child, if you need to and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth with the included carrycot.

Style

Newborns should lay flat as much as possible to aid development and increase the oxygen level in their lungs. Therefore, it is essential that all prams permit this. Some models permit an entirely flat position using a carrycot that is fully reclined, whereas others have a seat which reclines to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me is a great device for this as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her 10-month-old daughter. She was enthralled by the fact that she could raise or lower her little one with the push of a button, keeping him in view and still maintain eye contact and a closeness.

The frame is perfect for city trips and the puncture-proof wheels permit you to take it off the road or on rough terrain. It's also a good option if you're thinking of having another child in future since it can easily be converted from a single pram into a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that looks and feels luxurious. It's ideal for babies as it comes with a carrycot that can be rolled flat and is compatible with a car-seat when purchased separately. You can even fold it by putting the carrycot in place and it's something that does not happen with all prams and is a time-saving and hassle-free feature.

Its luxurious fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tires are the kinds of things you'd expect on a high-end pram however, its sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver across a variety of terrains. It's also a great option if you live in a city and must navigate narrow streets or busy sidewalks frequently. This pram is not cheap but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money in the long run by avoiding the purchase of a separate toddler stroller. You can choose from a variety of colors to suit your preferences.
