What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also known as a pushchair, stroller or Sling, is the main form of transport for babies and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort and style to make walking enjoyable for the entire family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller makes a great stroller for infants to three years old. The reversible handle lets you to turn the seat so that your child can either face you or the world around them.

Comfort

If you're out and about with a baby, you want to ensure they're secure. There are prams that make sure your baby doesn't feel any discomfort.

The prams we've selected in this buying guide all allow your baby to lay flat, which is important for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen levels and assists in the development of their spine and hips. The seats can be adjusted to a more upright position when your baby is capable of sitting up.

Venicci egg2 is a top-of-the-line pram that has a cocoon-like feeling for your baby. It has smooth, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shaped seat that doesn't recline to flat however it does come with a padded mattress and liner. It's also lighter than many prams, weighing under 8kg. But it has a sturdy frame with grained leather details and air-filled tyres which are puncture-proof.

If you want something more budget-friendly but still with the same design Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a good option. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as lightweight as other strollers, but it does come with a large storage basket. It also has an hood that can be extended, which provides UPF 50+ protection to keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're the first parent of your child, we'd recommend considering a travel 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 child from their car to the pram without having to awake them. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a fashionable and practical pram that can convert easily from a lie-flat 'pramette to a pushchair for toddlers that is compatible with the Graco I-Size car seats.

Safety

The pram should be fitted with a five-point safety harness that will keep your baby safe. It should also have no gaps in which their heads or legs can get trapped. The straps should be padded and easy to adjust as they grow. It is also important to check the harness buckles to ensure that they aren't damaged or showing signs of wear and tear. Many children are admitted to hospitals every year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. The main cause of these injuries is the result of a stroller tipping over. Even the most sturdy prams can tip over when you strap your bags onto the handles or if the child is wriggling and falls out or in the seat before the harness is tightened.

Another frequent cause of injury is falling from the stroller or pram. If a child's harness isn't secured correctly, it could cause them to fall out of the stroller and sustain head or neck injuries. It is therefore important to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into the proper position.

Some prams with good quality also have a reversible canopy that will shield your baby from the sun in any direction. This is a useful feature since you will not be having to wake your baby awake while you change their position in the pram or when you go into and out of shops. There are also other features that could be useful, like snacks for your toddler or child and drink holders. There's also a basket for shopping underneath the seat.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without having them within sight. Babies can be prone to wiggle during sleep, which could cause them to roll out of the pram or stroller. This can lead to strangulation and suffocation. A stroller or pram should not be used as an alternative to a cot. It should only be used for short periods of time during the day.

The majority of prams require you to take them apart in order to fit them into the boot of your car therefore it's recommended to familiarize yourself with this procedure before you purchase one. Also, check how easy it is to get the various sections back together and click them in place.

Durability

A pram should be durable enough to endure many years of wear and wear and tear. You need to ensure that your baby's pram is able to handle muddy walks and also multiple car trips. You also want your stroller to have an image or color that won't date quickly to avoid looking like you've fallen out of style.

The most effective prams are constructed with high-quality materials. They are designed to last, so you should look for durable fabrics, sturdy wheels, and an effective suspension system. The most effective prams are small and fold easily, so you can store them in your garage or the boot of your car.

All the prams in this list allow your baby to lie down on their backs. This is essential for babies, because it aids in the development of their hips and spine, and boosts oxygen levels. Many are designed to grow with your child and some having a carrycot or a fully reclined seat that can be clicked off and on the frame for when your child is no longer using it.

If you are considering buying a pram for the first time it is recommended to consider a system that has an infant carrycot and car seats could be a good idea. Our tester for parents Jaya loved the Graco Near2Me System she used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with a clever feature that raises and lowers your child at the push of a button so you can keep your eyes on them and keep them close, which she claimed was important for her son as he was at an exploratory stage.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our test-driver Jess Bird tried with her two children Effie & Boden (pictured above). It's a luxury pram that can be converted from a single to a double pushchair with 30 possible configurations. It also comes with luxurious fabrics, an expandable sun canopy, and puncture-proofed tyres. It's not cheap, but you can use it for more than one child, if you need to and, just like the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the carrycot included.

Style

All prams should allow newborns to lie as flat as they can. This will help with their development and increase oxygen saturation in the lungs. Some models allow for an all-flat position by using a carrycot that is fully reclinable, while others feature a seat that can recline to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for the latter, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her child who was 10 months old. She loved the fact that she could raise and lower her little one with the press of a button, keeping him in sight and still maintain eye contact and closeness.

It's a great choice for those that want to nip around town with ease as the frame is an ideal size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres let you move it off the road and into rough terrain. It's a great choice for those who plan to have a child in the future, as it can easily be converted from a single pushchair a double or twin.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish premium option that looks and feels impressive. It is suitable for newborns because it comes with a carrycot that can be folded flat and is compatible with car seats if purchased separately. It is able to be folded with the carrycot still in place, which is something that not all prams provide. This reduces time and makes it more convenient to use.

The pram's luxurious fabric as well as the spacious basket and puncture-proof tires are things you'd expect in a top model However, the sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver around different terrains. It's also an ideal choice when you live in a city and need to negotiate narrow streets or overcrowded sidewalks regularly. It's not cheap, but its versatility and quality can save you money in the long run by avoiding the need for a separate toddler stroller. It's available in a wide selection of colors and you can pick one that matches your personal style.
