What to Look For in Push Chairs and Prams

The world of push chairs and prams can be confusing. Prams are made to carry infants and babies. They come with a lie-flat seat.

Prams are also available with a carrycot or bassinet for infants. Some can be converted into a pushchair twin when the baby is older.

If you are planning to travel by public transport or fold your pushchair regularly, choose a lightweight and compact pushchair.

Comfort

Alongside bottles and nappies, your pushchair will be among the most frequently used baby items you have. It's therefore crucial to make sure your child is comfortable on every outing by choosing an option with plenty of padding as well as a comfortable seat that can be adjusted to height.

It's also worth noting that many prams, buggies and pushchairs come with a fitted pram blanket, which can help to keep your child warm. They can be easily put into the wash and are available in a variety of different colours and designs to match your preference.

A pram is for newborns from 6 months to 6 years of age, when they are still at a stage that they need to lay flat. Most often, a carrycot or bassinet will be attached to the frame. The majority of prams have the option of either 'parent' facing or 'world-facing.' This allows you to decide if you prefer your baby to be facing you in order to bond with you, or explore the sights and sounds of their environment. Some prams convert into pushchairs, such as the iCandy Peach 7 – a premium single-to-double pushchair which can be used as early as birth with a carrycot up to 25kg (15kg using elevators).

It is vital to remember that infants less than six months old shouldn't be carried in a pushchair that doesn't recline fully flat. A crouching position can impact their breathing as they breathe more than they would normally. This could cause breathing problems in the long run.

A pushchair is a chair that folds down into a compact size. It's designed for older babies and toddlers. These are often constructed from a more durable material than prams. You can also find models where you can alter the direction in which the seat is facing so that your child can be reassured by you, or away from you to explore the world.

Safety

Some prams also have this option, but it may not be a requirement for all models.
