Wheels

The wheels are what propel the pram and give your child a smooth ride. There are three wheel types: rubber, foam, and EVA (harder plastic type). Each wheel type has its pros and con depending on the way you plan to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are the most popular and offer excellent grip on all surfaces. The only drawback is that they may be punctured if inflated too much by an auto tyre pump. However it is usually due to someone over inflating the tires and isn't a common issue. This type of wheel is commonly used on buggies that run all-terrain.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are made of foam, making them lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock-absorbing ability, and can feel harsher on rough concrete surfaces. They are more often seen on strollers than prams and are usually the cheapest cost option.

EVA also known as Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a material that has some characteristics of rubber, and is also lighter. It can be used in place of rubber or PU for low maintenance and to reduce the weight of your pram.

It is crucial to have a reliable brake system in your pram. This will safeguard you as well as your child and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs come with brake pedals located at the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars or by pressing down with your foot. The brakes must be easy to use and should lock immediately after pressing them. Some pushchairs feature brakes on the middle wheel for added stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is an easy-to-use portable cot that can be attached to the chassis of any pushchair. It's perfect for babies and infants up to six months of age, as they must lay flat in order to develop their spine and lungs.
