What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also known as a stroller or a pushchair) is the primary mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A good pram is a blend of safety, comfort and style that makes walking enjoyable for all family members.

Comfort

You want your baby to feel comfortable when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams designed to ensure your child doesn't feel a thing.

The prams we've selected in this buying guide let your baby lie flat, which is crucial for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen levels and supports their developing spine and hips. The seats can also be adjusted to a more upright position when your baby is able to sit up.

For a truly luxurious feel it's the Venicci egg2 offers a cozy cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seats that doesn't recline into a lie-flat position, but has a padded liner and mattress.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and functional pram that can convert easily from a'pramette' that lies flat to a pushchair with car seat for toddlers compatible with the Graco i-Size car seat.

Safety

A pram should have a five point safety harness to ensure your baby is safe and free of any gaps to trap their heads or legs. The straps should be padded and easily adjustable as your child grows. Also, you should check the harness buckles to ensure that they aren't cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. A lot of children are hospitalized each year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. Tipping over is the main reason for these injuries. Even the strongest prams can tip over if you attach bags on the handles, or if a wriggling child is able to get into or out of the seat without the harness being secured.

Another common cause of injury is falling off the stroller or pram. If a baby is not properly secured 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 harness buckle is always clicked into place.

A few good prams also come with a canopy that can be reversible to shield your baby mobility from sun in any direction. This feature is beneficial because you don't have to wake up your baby when you change their position in the stroller, or when you enter and out of stores. There are other features that could be useful, for example snacks for your child or toddler and drink holders. There's also an extra shopping basket under the seat.

You should never let a child sleep in their pram unless you are within their reach at all times. Babies tend to wiggle while asleep, which can cause them to roll off the stroller or pram and can lead to suffocation or strangulation. A pram or a stroller is not an alternative to the cot. It is best to use it 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 purchase one. Also, check how it is simple to put the various sections back together and click them into place.

Durability

A pram should be durable enough to withstand many years of wear and tear. You should ensure that your pram can handle the mud of a walk as well as a variety of car trips. It is also important for your pram and travel system to be in an image or color that doesn't get outdated so that you don't end up looking like you've fallen out of style.

The most reliable prams are made of high-quality materials, and are designed to last. You should look for durable fabrics, sturdy tires, and an effective suspension system. The best prams will also have a compact fold so you can store them easily in your garage or in the boot when not being used.

All prams on this list allow a baby to lay flat, which is essential for newborns as it improves oxygen saturation levels and supports the development of their spine and hips. Many of these prams are designed to grow with your child. Some include a carrycot, or a fully-reclined chair that can be snapped on and off as your child grows.
