What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a pushchair, stroller or a sling, is the primary method of transport for infants and toddlers. A great pram combines safety, comfort and design that makes walking fun for all family members.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a wonderful pram for newborns up to 3 year old children. The Reversible handle lets you flip the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

When you're out and about with your baby, you want to ensure that they're safe. The good news is that there are prams specifically designed to ensure your child isn't apprehensive.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide all allow your baby to lay flat, which is important for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen saturation and supports their developing spine and hips. They also come with seats that can be changed to more upright positions when your baby is old enough to sit.

For a really high-end feel it's the Venicci egg2 offers a cozy cocoon-like feel for your baby with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seats that doesn't recline into a lie-flat position but does have a padded mattress and liner. It's also lighter than the majority of prams on the market at less than 8kg, but it has a sturdy chassis and grained leather detailing, plus air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof, and can be used in more rural environments.

The Minu V2 is a great choice when you're looking for a model with a similar design but for a lesser price. The stylish, one-hand steer model isn't as light than some of the other prams we tried however it comes with a large storage basket and the ability to extend the hood, which comes with 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 attach to the same frame. This allows parents to transfer their child from the car to the foldable pram without having to get them up. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and functional travel system pram that converts easily from a'pramette' lying flat' to a toddler-friendly pushchair that is compatible with the Graco I-Size car seats.

Safety

The pram should come with a five-point safety harness that will keep your baby safe. It should also not have any gaps between their head and legs that could get stuck. The straps must be cushioned and easy to adjust as they expand. It is also important to examine the buckles on your harness to ensure they are not cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Many children are admitted to hospitals each year due to injuries from strollers or prams. The primary cause of these injuries is tipping over. Even the sturdiest prams can tip over if you attach bags to the handles or if a child who is wriggling is able to get into or out of the seat without the harness being done up.

A common cause of injury is falling from a pram, or stroller. If a baby's harness isn't secured correctly it could cause them to fall out of the stroller and suffer head or neck injuries. It is therefore essential to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into the correct position.

Some good prams 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 when you change their position in the pram, or when you are to and from the shops. Other handy features include a tray for snacks and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a shopping basket under the seat and a handlebar that locks into position when you're not using it.

It is not advisable to let a child sleep in their stroller unless you are within their reach at all times. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep and this may cause them to fall off the pram or stroller and could result in strangulation or suffocation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to the crib. It should only be used for short periods during the day.

Most prams require you to dismantle them to fit them into the trunk of your car so it is a good idea to familiarise yourself with this procedure before you buy one. Consider how easy it would be to put the pieces back together.

Durability

A pram must be durable enough to endure several years of wear and tear. This includes having to deal with the mud-filled walks and numerous car journeys, so you must ensure your choice will fulfill the tasks you require it to. You should ensure that your pram is in a color or pattern that won't fade easily so that you don't appear like you've lost style.

The best prams are made with high-quality materials. They are built to last, so look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels and a well-designed suspension system. The best prams will also have a compact fold so they are easy to store in your garage or boot when not when not in use.

All the prams on this list allow a baby to lay flat, which is crucial for infants since it increases oxygen saturation levels and supports the development of their spine and hips. Many of these prams are designed to grow along with your child. Some include a carrycot or a reclined chair that can be snapped on and off when your child outgrows them.

If you are considering buying a pram for the first time it is recommended to consider a system that has the carrycot as well as car seats could be worth a look. We are awestruck by the Graco Near2Me system that our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It comes with an innovative feature that lets you raise and lower your baby by pressing one button. This allows you to maintain eye contact with your child and keep them close.

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

Style

Newborns need to lay flat as often as possible to aid development and improve the oxygen saturation of their lungs. Therefore, it's important that all prams support this. Some models permit a completely flat position by using a carrycot that is completely reclined, while others have a seat which can recline to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me works great for this, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her 10-month-old child. She was thrilled that she could raise or lower her child with the push of a button to keep him in the view of others while maintaining eye contact and closeness.

The frame is perfect to take a stroll around town and the puncture-proof tires permit you to take it off road or over rough terrain. It's a great choice if you plan to have a second child in the near future, as it can easily be transformed from a single pushchair to a double or twin.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish premium option that is both stylish and comfortable. It's ideal for babies because it includes a carrycot which can be folded flat and is compatible with a car seat when purchased separately. You can fold it by putting the carrycot in place which is something not all prams can do and is a time-saving and hassle-free feature.

The pram's luxurious fabric, spacious basket, and puncture-proof tires are things you would expect to see on a premium model, but the sleek frame makes it simple for you to maneuver on various terrains. This is a great choice when you live in a city and have to navigate narrow streets or crowded paths on a regular basis. Although it's not inexpensive however, the durability and quality of this pram make it possible to save you money in the end by not having to buy an additional pushchair for toddlers. You can choose from a variety of colors to suit your preferences.
