What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also known as a pushchair car seat, stroller or a Sling, is the main mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A great pram is a blend of safety, comfort and style that makes walking enjoyable for all family members.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller is a great stroller for infants to 3 years old. The reversible handle lets you turn the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

When you're out and around with your baby, you'll want to ensure that they're safe. The good news is that there are prams made to ensure your little one isn't apprehensive.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide allow your baby to lay flat, which is important for infants as lying flat improves oxygen levels and supports their developing hips and spine. They also have seats that can be changed to a more upright position when your baby is old enough to sit up.

For a luxurious feel, the Venicci egg2 has a cosy cocoon-like feel for your baby with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seats that doesn't recline to a lie-flat position but does have an upholstered mattress and liner. It's also lighter than the majority of prams, weighing under 8kg but still has a sturdy chassis and grained leather accents and air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof and able to be used in more rural environments.

If you want something less expensive but still with the same design Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is another excellent choice. The swish-looking, one-hand steer model isn't as lightweight than some of the other prams we tried but it does have a large storage basket, as well as an the ability to extend the hood, which comes with UPF 50+ protection that'll keep your baby shaded and protected.

If you're a new parent we suggest you look into a travel stroller system bundle that includes a pram as well as a car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This will make it easier to transfer your child from the car into the pram without waking them and is ideal for parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and practical pram that is able to be easily converted from a 'pramette or a lie-flat 'pramette to a stroller for toddlers compatible with the Graco iSize car seat.

Safety

A pram must have a five point safety harness to ensure your baby is secure and should not allow any gaps to entrap their legs or heads. The straps must be padded and easily adjustable as your child grows. You should also check the harness buckles to make sure that they aren't damaged or showing signs of wear and tear. Many children are hospitalised each year because of pram or stroller-related injuries. Tipping over is the primary reason for these injuries. Even the sturdiest prams can fall over if you hang bags onto the handles, or if a child with a wriggling can get in or out of the seat without the harness being done up.

Another reason for injury is falling off the pram or stroller. If a baby isn't securely fastened in the pram, they may fall out of the pram and suffer head or neck injuries. This is why it is vital to ensure that the buckle of the harness is always clicked into place.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will shield your baby from the sun in either direction. This feature is beneficial because you won't have to wake up your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller or when you go in stores and out. Other useful features include a snack tray and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat, and the handlebar can be locked into place when you're not using it.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without having them in sight. Babies are prone to wiggle while asleep, which can cause them to roll out of the pram or stroller. This could lead to strangulation and suffocation. A pram or stroller is not an alternative to a crib and should be used only for short periods of time during the daytime.

It is essential to disassemble most prams in order to put them in the boot of your vehicle. This procedure should be familiarised with before you buy one. Consider how easy it would be to put the parts back together.

Durability

A pram should be able to endure a long time of wear. You should ensure that your stroller can withstand muddy walks as well as a variety of car trips. You want to make sure that your pram is in the right color or design that will not date easily so that you don't appear like you've fallen out of style.

The best prams are made of high-quality materials and are designed to last, so you should look for robust fabrics, sturdy wheels and an efficient suspension system. The best prams will also have a compact fold, so they are easy to store in your garage or the boot when not being used.

All the prams on this list allow infants to lie 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 carrycots, or a fully-reclined chair that can be snapped on and off when your child outgrows them.

If you're purchasing a new childs pram for the first time, you may also be interested in a travel system that is a complete bundle that includes a lying-flat carrycot and car seat. We love the Graco Near2Me system that our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with a clever feature that raises and lowers your baby at the touch of a button so you can maintain eye contact and keep them close which she described as being important for her son as he was at an exploratory stage.

Another option is another option is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two babies, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a luxurious pram that converts from a single to double pushchair and has 30 possible configurations and features luxurious fabrics, an expandable sun canopy and puncture-proof tyres. It's not cheap, but it can be used for multiple children, if needed. Similar to our winner iCandy Orange 3, the iCandy Orange 3 with its included carrycot can be used as early as.

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lie as flat as they can. This will aid in their development and improve oxygen levels in the lung. Some models allow for an entirely flat position using a carrycot that can be completely reclined, while others have a seat which reclines to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me is a great device for both as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her child who was 10 months old. She loved the ability to raise or lower her child at the touch of an button, keeping him in view and still maintain eye contact and proximity.

It's a great stroller for those who want to travel around town with ease as the frame is a great size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres allow you to remove it from the road and into rough terrain. It's also a good choice if you're planning on having a second child in the future since it can easily be converted from a single pushchair to a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a premium, stylish option. It is suitable for newborns because it includes a carrycot which can be rolled flat and is compatible with a car-seat when purchased separately.
