What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a stroller, pushchair or Sling, is the most popular form of transport for babies and toddlers. A good pram combines safety, comfort and design that makes walking enjoyable for all the family members.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller is a fantastic stroller for children from newborns to three years old. Its reversible handle allows you to tilt the seat so your child can look at you or the world around them.

Comfort

You want your child to feel comfortable when you're out with them. There are prams to ensure your baby doesn't feel any sensations.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide all allow your baby to lay flat, which is important for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen levels and helps support their growing hips and spine. The seats can also be adjusted to a more upright position once your baby is able to sit up.

Venicci egg2 is a premium pram with a cocoon feel for your baby. It features smooth, curved lines, a bucket-shaped seat, which does not recline into flat, but it does have padding on the mattress and a liner. It's also lighter than other prams, at a weight of just 8kg. However, it still has a sturdy chassis with grained leather details and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.

If you're looking for something less expensive but with the same design, the Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a good option. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as light as other prams but it does have a huge storage basket. It also has an hood that can be extended, which provides UPF 50+ protection to keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're new to parenting We suggest that you consider a travel system package which includes a car seat as well as a pram that are attached to the same frame. This makes it much easier for parents to transfer their child from their car to the pram without having to get them up. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and useful travel pram system pram that converts easily from a lie-flat 'pramette' to a toddler-friendly pushchair with car seat that is compatible with the Graco I-Size car seats.

Safety

A pram should have a five point safety harness to ensure your baby is safe and free of any gaps that could trap their legs or head. The straps must be padded, and easily adjustable as your child grows. Check the buckles on the harness to ensure they are not cracked and show signs of wear. A lot of children are hospitalized each year due to injuries caused by strollers or prams. The main cause of these injuries is the result of a stroller tipping over. Even the strongest prams can tip over if you attach bags to the handles or if a child with a wriggling gets into or out of the seat without harnesses being secured.

Another common cause of injury is falling off the folding pram or stroller. If a baby isn't securely secured in the pram, they could fall out of the pram and suffer head or neck injuries. This is why it is crucial 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 sun in any direction. This feature is helpful 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. Other handy features include a snack tray and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a shopping basket underneath the seat, and a handlebar that locks in place when you are not using it.

You should never leave a child sleeping in their stroller unless they are within their reach at all times. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep, which can cause them to fall off the stroller or pram and could result in suffocation or strangulation. A lightweight stroller or pram is not an alternative to the crib. It should only be used for short periods of time during the daytime.

Most prams require you to dismantle them to put them in the trunk of your car so it's recommended to familiarize yourself with the process before purchasing one. Find out how easy it will be to put the sections back together.

Durability

A pram should be able to endure several years of wear. You want to make sure that your baby's pram is able to handle slippery walks, as well as multiple car trips. You also want your pram to be in the form of a color or print that won't date quickly to avoid looking like you've fallen out of fashion.

The top prams are constructed from high-quality materials and are built to last. So, look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels, and an efficient suspension system. The best prams will also have a compact fold, so they can be easily stored in your garage or the boot when not being used.

All prams on this list allow your baby to lie flat. This is crucial for infants because it allows them to develop their hips and spine, and boosts oxygen levels. Many of these prams have been designed to expand with your child's. Some have a carrycot, or a fully-reclined chair that can be removed and snapped on when your child outgrows them.

If you're purchasing a new pram for the first time, you might be interested in a travel set which is an all-in-one bundle that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. Our test-driver for parents Jaya loved the Graco Near2Me System she used with her 10-month old son. It comes with a clever feature that allows you to raise and lower your child at the push of a button so you can maintain eye contact and keep them close which she claimed was 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 kids Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pushchair that can be converted from a single pushchair to a double with 30 different configurations. It also features sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap but you can use it for more than one child, if you need to and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth with the included carrycot.

Style

All prams should allow newborns to lie as flat as possible. This will aid in their development and boost oxygen saturation in the lung. Some models provide a flat position with a fully-reclinable carrycots, while others have seats that recline to an upright position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for the latter, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried 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 view while maintaining the eye contact and closeness.

The frame is perfect to take a stroll around town, and the puncture-proof tires permit you to take it off road or over rough terrain. It's also a great choice if you're planning on having another child in the near future since it can easily be converted from a single pram into a double pram or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a high-end, stylish option. It's ideal for infants as it includes a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with car seats when you purchase it separately. You can even fold it by putting the carrycot in place which is something not all prams can do, so it's an efficient and easy feature.

The pram's luxurious fabric as well as the spacious basket and puncture-proof tires are all features you'd expect to find in a top model, but the sleek frame makes it simple to maneuver around different terrains. It's also a great choice when you reside in a city and must navigate narrow streets or overcrowded sidewalks frequently. It's not cheap, but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money in the long run by avoiding the purchase of a separate stroller for toddlers. It's available in an extensive range of colors, too, so you can pick one that fits your personal style.
