What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a pushchair, stroller or sling, is the primary mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A good pram combines comfort, safety and design to make walking enjoyable for all the family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a great pram for newborns up to 3 year old children. Its reversible handle allows you to tilt the seat so that your child can face either you or the world around them.

Comfort

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

All the prams listed in this guide let your baby lay flat. This is crucial for babies as it increases oxygenation and strengthens their spine and hips. They also have a seat which can be transformed to more upright positions when your baby is old enough to sit.

For a truly luxurious experience this Venicci egg2 has a cosy cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seat that does not recline to a lying-flat position but does have a padded mattress and liner. It's also lighter than other prams, weighing under 8kg. However, it still has a sturdy frame with grained leather details and tyres with air-filled tires that are puncture-proof.

The Minu V2 is a great choice if you're looking for something with a similar design but at a lower price. The one-hand steer model, swish, isn't as light as other prams, but it does have a large storage basket. It also has an extended hood that provides UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby safe and protected.

If you're a first time parent, we recommend that you consider a travel system that includes a car seat and pram that are attached to the same frame. This makes it easier to transfer your child from the car to the pram without waking them and is ideal for busy parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is an elegant and practical pram that is easily converted from a 'pramette' or lie-flat 'pramette, into a stroller that is toddler-friendly compatible with the Graco ISize car seat.

Safety

The pram should be fitted with five-point safety harnesses that will ensure your baby's safety. It should also not have any gaps in which their heads or legs are likely to get caught. The straps must be cushioned and easy to adjust as they expand. Also, you should examine the buckles on your harness to make sure that they aren't cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Each year, many children are admitted to hospitals due to injuries caused by prams and strollers. Tipping over is the main reason for these injuries. Even the sturdiest prams can tip over if you attach bags onto the handles, or if a child with a wriggling can get in or out of the seat without harnesses being secured.

Another common cause of injuries is falling from the stroller or pram. If a baby is not properly secured, they could fall out of the stroller and suffer head or neck injuries. This is why it is crucial to ensure that the harness buckle is always locked in place.

Some prams come with a reversible shade which can be used to shield your baby in any direction from the sun. This feature is useful because you won't have to wake your baby when you change their position in the stroller, or when you go into stores and out. Other useful features include a snack tray and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a shopping basket 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 if you are not within reach. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep, which can cause them to slide off the pram or stroller and cause strangulation or suffocation. A pram or a stroller is not an alternative to the cot. It is best prams to use it for short periods of time during the daytime.

Most prams require you to disassemble them in order to put them in the car's boot so it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with this procedure before purchasing one. Also, check how easy it is to get the different parts back together before putting them into place.

Durability

A pram should be durable enough to withstand several years of wear and tear. You need to ensure that your pram can handle muddy walks, as well as multiple car trips. You want to make sure that your stroller is in a colour or print that won't fade easily to avoid looking as if you've slipped out of style.

The most reliable prams are constructed from high-quality materials and designed to last. Look for durable materials, sturdy tires, and an effective suspension system. The most reliable prams have a compact strollers fold, so they can be easily stored in your garage or the boot when not in use.

All the prams in this list allow a baby to lie flat, which is crucial for newborns as it improves oxygen saturation levels as well as aids in the development of their hips and spine. A lot of these prams are designed to grow along with your child. Some include a carrycot, or a reclined seat that can be removed and snapped on as your child grows.

If you are buying an infant stroller for the first time it is recommended to consider a system that comes with the carrycot as well as a car seat could be of interest. We love the Graco Near2Me system which our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with an innovative feature that lets you raise and lower your child at the touch of a single button. This lets you keep eye contact with your child and keep them close.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our test-driver Jess Bird tried with her two children Effie & Boden (pictured above). It's a pram that can be converted from a single pushchair to double, with 30 different configurations. It also features sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not expensive, but it can be used for multiple children, if needed. And like our winner, the iCandy Orange 3 with its included carrycot can be used right from birth.

Style

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

The Graco Near2Me comes with the latter feature, and it's fantastic in this regard as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it with her son who was 10 months old. She loved the fact that she could raise or lower her baby at the touch of a button and keep him in view while maintaining eye contact and a closeness.

It's a great stroller for those that want to nip around town easily as the frame is an ideal size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres permit you to remove it from the road and onto rough terrain. It's a great option for those who plan to have another child in the near future, as it can easily be transformed from a single pushchair travel system into a double or twin.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a stylish, high-end option. It's suitable for newborns because it comes with a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with a car seat, if you buy it separately. You can even fold it with the carrycot in place - something that isn't the case with all prams and is an efficient and easy feature.

Its luxe fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tires are the kind of features you'd expect to see on a pram of the highest quality and its sleek design makes it easy to maneuver across a variety of terrains. This is a great choice for those who live in the city and must navigate narrow streets and crowded walkways frequently. This pram is not cheap but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money over time by avoiding the purchase of a separate toddler stroller. You can choose from a range of colors that will fit your preferences.
