What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also called a stroller or a pushchair twin) is the main form of transportation for babies and toddlers. A good pram combines comfort, safety and style to make walking enjoyable for the whole family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller makes a great stroller for babies to 3 years old. Its reversible handle allows you to rotate the seat so that your child can look at either you or the world around them.

Comfort

When you're out and about with a baby, you'll want to ensure that they're safe. There are prams that will ensure your baby doesn't feel anything.

All the prams listed in this guide allow your baby lay flat. This is crucial for babies as it increases oxygenation and supports their spine and hips. The seats can be adjusted to a more upright position once your baby is able to sit up.

For a truly luxurious experience this Venicci egg2 provides a warm cocoon feel for your newborn with smooth, curved lines and a bucket-shape seat that doesn't recline to a lie-flat position, but it does have a padded liner and mattress. It's also lighter than the majority of prams, weighing less than 8kg but has solid chassis and grained leather details as well as tyres with air-filled tires that are puncture-proof and able to take on more rural settings.

The Minu V2 is a great option when you're looking for a model with a similar look but for a lesser price. The one-hand steer model, swish, isn't as light as other prams but it does come with a large storage basket. It also comes with an extended hood that provides UPF 50+ protection to keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're a new parent we recommend a travel system bundle that includes a pram and a car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This makes it easier to transfer your child from the car to the pram without disturbing them and is ideal for parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and functional pram that is able to be easily converted from a 'pramette or a lie-flat 'pramette' into a toddler-friendly stroller compatible with the Graco ISize car seat.

Safety

A pram must have a five point safety harness to keep your baby secure and should not allow any gaps that could trap their heads or legs. The straps should be padded and easy to adjust as they expand. Check the buckles on the harness to ensure they are not cracked and show signs of wear. Many children are hospitalised each year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. The most common reason for these injuries is tipping over. Even the most sturdy prams can topple if you hook bags to the handles or if a child is wriggling or squirming and falls in or out of the seat before the harness has been tightened.

Another frequent cause of injuries is falling from the stroller or pram. If a baby is not securely secured in, they could fall out of the pram and suffer head or neck injuries. It is therefore essential to ensure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the correct position.

Some prams have a reversible shade that can be used to shield your baby in both directions from the sun. This is a great feature since you will not be having to wake your baby up when you are changing their position in the pram, or when you are to and from the shops. There are also other features that could be useful, like snacks for your toddler or child and drink holders. There is also a shopping basket underneath the seat.

Do not leave a baby asleep in a pram if you are not within sight. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep and this may cause them to slide off the stroller or pram and cause strangulation or suffocation. A stroller or babiie pram is not an alternative to a crib. It is best to use it for short periods of time during the day.

It is necessary to disassemble most prams in order to place them in the trunk of your car. This process is something you should know before you purchase a pram. Find out how easy it will be to put the pieces back together.

Durability

A pram needs to be able to stand up to the wear and tear of many years. This includes surviving walking in the rain and many car journeys, so you need to ensure that your choice will fulfill the tasks you require it to. Also, you want your pram to be in a print or colour that won't date quickly so you don't end up looking like you've fallen out of style.

The best prams are constructed from high-quality materials and built to last. Look for durable fabrics as well as sturdy tires and an effective 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 prams on this list allow the baby to lie flat. This is important for babies, because it aids in the development of their hips and spine, and pushchair Stroller boosts oxygen levels. A lot of them are designed to grow with your child with some having a carrycot or fully-reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame when your child outgrows it.

If you're buying a new pram for the first time, you might also be looking for a travel system which is a bundle that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. Our tester for parents Jaya loved the Graco Near2Me system that she used with her 10-month old son. It has a nifty feature that can raise or lower your baby at the touch of a button, so you can maintain eye contact and keep them close which she described as being important to her since he was at an exploratory stage.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our tester Jess Bird tried with her two babies Effie & Boden (pictured above). It's a luxurious pushchair that can be converted from a single pushchair to double pushchair, with 30 different configurations, and comes with luxurious fabrics, an expandable sun canopy, and puncture-proof tyres. It's not inexpensive however, you can use it for multiple children if necessary. Similar to our winner model, the iCandy Orange 3 with its carrycot, it can be used from the moment of birth.

Style

Newborns must lay flat as much as they can in order to promote development and improve the oxygen saturation of their lungs. Therefore, it's essential that all prams allow this. Some models provide a flat position using a fully reclineable carrycots, while others have the seat that can recline to an unflat position.

The Graco Near2Me is a great device for the latter, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her 10-month-old child. She was thrilled to be able to raise or lower her infant with a push of a button to keep him in the same position and still maintain closeness and eye contact.

The frame is perfect for nipping around town, and the puncture-proof tires permit you to take it off road or on rough terrain. It's also a good choice if you're planning on having another child in future because it easily converts from a single pushchair to a twin or double triple pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish premium option that looks and feels luxurious. It's ideal for infants as it comes with a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with a car seat, if you buy it separately. You can fold it using the carrycot as a stand and it's something that does not happen with all prams which is why it's an efficient and easy feature.

Its luxurious fabrics, large shopping basket and puncture-proof tires are the kinds of features you'd expect to find on a premium pram, but its sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver across a variety of terrains. It's also a great choice when you live in a city and must navigate narrow streets or overcrowded sidewalks frequently. Although it's not cheap however, the durability and quality of this stroller make it possible to save you money in the end by eliminating the need to buy a separate pushchair for toddlers. It's available in a wide selection of colors too, so you can pick one that fits your personal style.
