A pram is likely to be one of the most frequently used pieces of baby equipment that you purchase so it's important that it's comfortable for your young one. Look for models with comfy seat padding, adjustable handlebar height and recline function that allows you to put your child to sleep.

Make sure the pram you are looking at is able to do this, and also that it is compatible with a car-seat should it be required.

Wheels

The wheels of a folding pushchair are what allow it to move and what give your child the ride they require. There are 3 in one pushchair common wheel types: rubber, foam, and EVA (harder plastic type). Each has pros and cons depending on what you intend to use your pushchair.

The most popular type of rubber wheel is the and offer excellent grip on all surfaces. They can be punctured by using a compressor for car tyres to blow them up too hard. This is not a frequent problem, and is usually caused by someone who has inflated the wheels too much. This type of wheel is typically used on all-terrain buggies, as well as buggies that run.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are filled with foam, so they are lighter than rubber tires. They do not have the same shock-absorbing ability and can feel more abrasive on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are seen more on strollers than prams and are generally the lowest cost option.

EVA also known as Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a polymer material that has the properties of rubber and is lighter. It can be used to replace rubber or PU in your pram for its ease of maintenance and weight reduction.

It is essential to have a reliable brake system in your pram. This will protect you, your child and other pedestrians. The majority of pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars or by pressing down with your feet. The brakes must be simple to use and should lock immediately when you press them. Some pushchairs have a mid-wheel brake for more stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is a lightweight portable cot that connects to the chassis of a pushchair. It's perfect for newborns and babies from 6 months to 6 years of age, as they have to lay flat in order to develop their spine and lung capacity. A carrycot-equipped pram is a great option for parents who have only a tiny boot or who use public transport often.

Some prams have an inbuilt carrycot that folds into the frame of the pram so that you can quickly switch between carriage and seat mode. This is an excellent option for families who have an insufficient car boot or use public transport often. It will save you time and effort.
