What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a pushchair, stroller or a Sling, is the most popular method of transport for infants and toddlers. A quality pram is a blend of 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 babies to 3 years old. Its reversible handle allows you to turn the seat so that your child can either face either you or the world around them.

Comfort

When you're out and around with a baby, you'll want to ensure they're secure. There are prams to make sure your baby doesn't feel any discomfort.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide all let your baby lie flat, which is crucial for babies who are just beginning to crawl. Lying flat improves oxygen saturation and supports their developing hips and spine. They also come with a seat which can be transformed to more upright positions when your baby is old enough to sit.

Venicci egg2 is a top-of-the-line pram that has a cocoon-like feel for your baby. It has smooth, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shaped seat that doesn't recline to flat however it does come with padding on the mattress and a liner. It's also a little lighter than the majority of prams available at less than 8kg, but it has a sturdy chassis and grained leather accents, plus air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof, and can take on more rural settings.

If you're looking for something a bit more affordable, but with the same style, the Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a good option. 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 to keep your baby safe and shaded.

If you're a first-time parent, we'd recommend considering a travel system bundle that includes a pram and a car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This will make it much easier to get your baby out of the car to the pram without having to wake them up and is ideal for parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and practical pram that is able to be easily converted from a 'pramette,' or lie-flat 'pramette, into a stroller that is toddler-friendly compatible with the Graco ISize car seat.

Safety

A pram must have a five point safety harness to keep your baby secure and should not allow any gaps to trap their legs or head. The straps should be padded and easy to adjust as they expand. It is also important to check the harness buckles to ensure they are not cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Every year, a large number of children are hospitalised because of injuries caused by prams and strollers. Tipping over is the most common cause of these injuries. Even the sturdiest prams can fall over if you hang bags on the handles, or if a child with a wriggling can get in or out of the seat without harnesses being done up.

Another frequent cause of injury is falling off the stroller or pram. If a baby's harness is not secured properly, it could cause them to fall from the stroller and suffer head or neck injuries. It is therefore important to ensure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the correct position.

Some good prams also have a canopy that can be reversible to shield your baby from sun in both directions. This feature is helpful since you don't need to wake up your baby every time you change their position in the stroller or when you go into stores and out. Other handy features include a tray for snacks and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a basket for shopping underneath the seat, and a handlebar that locks into position when you are not using it.

Do not leave a baby asleep in a pram if you are not in sight. Babies can be prone to wiggle during sleep and this can cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This could lead to suffocation and strangulation. A pram or stroller is not an alternative to a crib and should be used only for short periods of time during the daytime.

It is necessary to disassemble most prams in order to put them into the boot of your vehicle. This procedure should be familiarised with before you purchase one. Also, check how easy it is to get the different parts back together and click them in place.

Durability

A pram must be durable enough to endure many years of wear and tear. This includes surviving muddy walks and getting through many car journeys, which is why you want to be sure your choice is able to perform the task you want it to. You want to make sure that your stroller is in a colour or print that won't fade easily so you don't look as if you've slipped out of fashion.

Pushchairs And Prams  are constructed with high-quality materials. They have been designed to last, so look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels and a well-designed suspension system. The most effective prams are small and fold easily so that you can store them in your garage or even the boot.

All prams on this list allow the baby to lie on their backs. This is essential for infants because it aids in the development of their hips and spine, and improves oxygenation levels. A lot of them are designed to grow with your child, with some of them having a carrycot or a fully reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame when your child is no longer using it.

If you're buying a new pram for the first time, you might be looking for a travel system which is an all-in-one package that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. We are awestruck by the Graco Near2Me system which our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It comes with a clever feature that raises and lowers your child with the click of a button. This way you can keep eye contact and keep them close, which she claimed was important for her son as the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

Another alternative is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two children, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pram that can be transformed from a single pushchair into double, with 30 different configurations. It also features the sun canopy which can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap but you could 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

Newborns must lay flat as much as they can to help develop and improve oxygen saturation in their lungs, so it is essential that all prams support this. Some models provide a flat surface with a fully-reclinable carrycot, while others have a seat that reclines to a flat position.

The Graco Near2Me comes with the latter and it's brilliant at that as our tester for parents Jaya discovered when she tried it with her son who was 10 months old. She loved the ability to raise or lower her infant with a push of a button to keep him in sight and still maintain closeness and eye contact.

It's a great choice for those who want to get around town easily as the frame is a great size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres let you move it off the road and onto rough terrain. It's also a smart option if you're thinking of having a second child in the future because it easily converts from a single pushchair to a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that is both stylish and comfortable. It is suitable for newborns since it comes with a carrycot that can be folded flat and is compatible with a car seat if purchased separately. It can be folded using the carrycot as a stand and it's something that isn't the case with all prams, so it's a time-saving and hassle-free feature.

The pram's luxurious fabric, spacious basket, and puncture-proof tires are things you'd expect to find in a top model However, the sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver around diverse terrains. It's also an ideal choice if you reside in a city and have to navigate narrow streets or crowded sidewalks frequently. Although it's not cheap however, the durability and quality of this pram will save you money over the long term by eliminating the need to buy an additional pushchair for toddlers. You can pick from a range of colors to suit your preferences.
