Pushchairs - The Swiss Army Knife of Baby Transport

A pushchair, also known as a buggy, pram or stroller, is the Swiss army knife of infant transport. These baby-chariots can handle any surface, from busy streets to rough terrain.

A good pushchair will offer safety and comfort to your child, convenience for you, and the possibility for you to bond and explore together. Find out what to consider when purchasing one.

folding pushchair

One of the key features that a lot of parents look for when choosing a pushchair is how easy it folds. The EeZeFold is unique because it features a one-handed fold that allows you to hold your baby while folding the buggy. This means that you don't have to balance the two. The buggy stays upright when folded, so you don't have to worry about the child falling out or causing injury during this process.

Some of the smaller folding pushchairs (like the Babyzen YOYO) are designed to fold down so small that they can be tucked away in the trunk of your car, which means they're ideal for frequent traveller or have a smaller car boot. Some are small buggies designed for use in everyday life that have a smaller footprint than the typical pushchair, yet have features that are good, such as a good recline or lightweight wheels. They're also usually lightweight enough to be carried by hand, and therefore can be used by Grandma or Grandad in case they need to.

The majority of these pushchairs are targeted at toddlers and older children since they can sit up, but some come with a lie-flat seating option and the option of adding a carrycot to make them suitable for babies from the time of birth. They may also be compatible with travel systems and allow you to attach an infant car seat to the frame with just a click.

A lot of compact pushchairs are very compact when folded with the seat attached. They're ideal for those who have a limited storage space at home, or who live in apartments. They are also lightweight, and many come with a raincover to shield them from the elements.

The Ergobaby Pivot 360, another popular pushchair from this category is foldable with just the press of a button. It's great to travel with because it's easy to fold. It's also light, making it simple for you to handle even on rough surfaces. It also has an excellent suspension. The seat can rotate to turn from parent-facing to world-facing, while the hood can be extended for extra protection and coverage from the sun.

Convertible

A convertible stroller changes shape to fit the needs of families that are growing. It can be used as a single stroller, transform into a double stroller for siblings and even become a triple stroller through the addition of an additional seat or ride-along boards. The UppaBaby Vista V2 is our top pick. It's a multi-purpose single to double stroller that can be transformed to accommodate a car seat or bassinet for newborns, two toddler seats, or even a third child with adapters.

Aside from transforming shape to adjust for different configurations convertible strollers should also have adjustable features like recline and height settings. They should also have large, easy-to-grip handles that are comfortable for dads, moms, or grandmas to push. These strollers are more stable than traditional pushchairs because they have more parts.

Larktale's cross-over stroller/wagon, a first of its kind, is a stroller that can be used as a wagon. Parents do not have to buy separate products. It is able to convert quickly and easily into a single stroller or double pram and pushchair stroller, with no need for tools or conversion kits. The second seat and pull handle give the flexibility of seating when used as a wagon. The Larktale is bulkier than the other convertibles we have rated top-rated however it offers excellent maneuverability and can easily handle uphills. Its biggest flaw is the lack of storage space under the seat. Click here for more info.

Safety

A quality pushchair should include several safety features like the five-point harness for baby. This should fit over the shoulders as well as around the waist and between the legs. It is also important that the harness doesn't become out of its place and that there are no places where a child could get their fingers stuck.

There are many different pushchair brakes to choose from, and you should choose one that is most suitable for your lifestyle. The most commonly used brake is one that is a foot brake. It's great when you have to stop frequently such as when you go to the shops. Many jogger-style pushchairs have a hand brake. This is helpful in situations where you have to change your speed often, like when running pushchair. Some pushchairs feature an active hand brake which operates by pressing a pedal using your foot. This is a useful option for parents who will be frequent stop-and-starts since it helps to maintain your balance and apply pressure on the wheels.

Verify that the front wheel of the pushchair can be locked. This is a great feature for those who live on uneven terrain or steep hills. A front wheel lockable can help stop the pushchair from slipping away in a hurry or there is a lot of luggage in the back.

Although it may seem something of a minor issue, the weight of the pushchair is something to be aware of. Even a light pushchair can be surprisingly heavy when loaded up with an ever-growing child and shopping bags. Check the weight of your stroller and see whether you are able to lift it up the stairs and into the trunk of your car seat pram, while carrying a toddler.

Buggy or pram are made for babies who can sit up. They are typically used after six months. They come with seats that can be oriented both towards you for bonding and away from you to explore the world. A lot of pushchairs have adjustable handlebars, seat positions and other accessories.

Comfort

Many parents enjoy the comfort features of pushchairs - and there are many to choose from. Certain models are better suited for urban streets or rough terrain than others, and the brake type is also something to consider. For instance, a foot brake is ideal for easy daily use, whereas the hand brakes that are active on jogger style pushchairs can be more responsive and easy to operate when out on adventures.

The capacity of your pushchair to allow newborns to lie flat is among the most important features. It is essential to select a pushchair that has this feature from the beginning. This will enable your baby to develop their spine into a straight position. This will allow your baby to rest or nap comfortably, allowing for longer outdoor excursions as well as a happier and healthier child.

It's important to choose a pushchair that is compatible with the infant car seat you've chosen. This makes it quick and easy to transfer your baby from the car into the pushchair, which reduces fuss and keeping him calm throughout his excursions.

Some pushchairs come with an adaptor for car seats that allows you to quickly connect your car seat. The seat can be used from birth until toddlerhood and save money and time. Many brands also offer a travel system bundle that includes infant car seat, adaptors, and a footmuff all in one purchase.

Another essential aspect for comfort is a great suspension - particularly on the front wheels. This can make a huge difference when driving on rough roads or in urban areas, allowing you to navigate bumps and uneven surfaces without difficulty while keeping your baby comfy.

It is also possible to consider other practical comfort features, such as a spacious basket (or separate bag) with the ability to recline handles as well as an adjustable seat and a hood that is ventilated. These features will aid you in your travels around town or the country and ensure that your child has the best sleep possible for the longest nap possible.
