What to Look For in Push Chairs and Prams

The world of push chairs and prams can be confusing. Prams are made to carry infants and toddlers with a lie-flat seat.

If you're planning to travel by public transport or fold your pushchair often pick a light and compact buggy.

Comfort

Alongside bottles and nappies your pushchair will be among the most used baby products you have. It is essential to select a model that has plenty of padding, a comfortable seat and can be adjusted in height.

Many prams, buggies, and pushchairs include a fitted blanket to keep your child warm. They can be easily put in the wash and are available in a variety of designs and colours to match your style.

A pram is designed for infants up to six months of age, when they are still at the point that they need to lay flat. A carrycot, or bassinet, will be attached to the frame. Most prams have the option of 'parent facing' and 'world facing', so you can choose whether to have your baby face you to bond with them or let them explore the sights and sounds around them. Some prams are convertible into pushchairs, like the iCandy Peach 7 – a premium single-to-double pushchair which can be used from birth with a carrycot up to 25kg (15kg with elevators).

It is important to keep in mind that babies less than six months old should not be carried in a stroller that isn't able to recline completely flat. When they are in a crouching posture, it can impact their breathing as they breathe more than normal. This could cause breathing problems in the future.

A pushchair is a seat on wheels that folds, typically to a compact size and it's generally geared towards older babies and toddlers until approximately three years old. They are typically constructed of a stronger material compared to prams. There are also models that allow you to alter the direction in which the seat faces so that your child can be reassured by you, or away from you to explore the world.

Safety

It is crucial to ensure your child is secure in a pushchair or pram. Make sure that you put your baby in a pram or pram that is made to his size and age. This will make them feel secure and safe and will help prevent accidents. If you're buying a baby pushchair or pram second-hand it's essential to conduct visual safety checks. This will ensure it's in good condition, and not damaged in a way that could cause harm to your child.

When choosing a pushchair with car seat or pram make sure you choose one with a safety harness that has quick and easy clips and connections. Verify that the buckles aren't loose and that the straps fit snugly around the waist of your child. Also look for a wide base, which will give more stability than models with narrow bases.

Avoid overloading your pushchair or pram with items. This could cause the pushchair to topple over and your baby may fall out. Do not put anything that can hurt your baby in the basket, including drinks, snacks, and toys.

Make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to clean your pram or pushchair. When washing the fabric or cleaning the hood, always dry it thoroughly outside to avoid any mildew or mould forming.

It's a great idea clean the removable footmuff that comes with your pushchair or pram prior to when you can use it again in winter. This can be accomplished by removing the fabric and washing it in cool water using soap and letting it air dry outside. You should also scrub any dirt or mud off the wheels and axles.

Experts suggest that infants lie down as soon as they can in a pushchair or pram. This will aid their development and decrease the risk of back problems as they age.

Under the General Product Safety Regulations of 2005, manufacturers and retailers are required to supply products that are safe for normal or reasonably reliable use. This is the case for new pushchairs and prams as well as second-hand ones.

Style

Some parents are looking for the most practical set-up of wheels they can find however, many parents need a pram that is as fashionable as their child. There are a variety of high-end prams and pushchairs that combine top-quality engineering with stylish designs that are both eye-catching and practical.

The first thing to consider when selecting a pushchair or pram is the seat padding and adjustable options. Babies can be messy creatures and so having a pushchair that is easy to clean is crucial. This is particularly true in the event that you plan to take long walks on rough terrain or over dirt, gravel and cobbles. Look for a pushchair with removable seats and recline mechanisms that can be washed by machine. Check that the fabric is machine washable to keep your baby dry and comfortable.

You should also think about the direction your baby will face in their pushchair. The majority of pushchairs that are 'from birth' allow you to switch the seat to face either parent (facing the parent to calm and bond) or world facing, to let your child explore the world. Some prams have this option, however it's not an option for all models.

Combination prams are referred to as 3-in-1 prams. They are popular with families due to the fact that they can accommodate an infant bassinet on the same frame. They are usually designed to be used from birth and are suitable for babies up to six months.

A travel system is a similar option to a combination pram, as it permits the fitting of car seats onto the frame, often by using adaptors. They are ideal for infants and toddlers from birth to three years old. They can be cheaper than buying separate products.

Twin prams or pushchairs are a ideal choice for twins or siblings of similar age who need to be transported in safety and comfort. They are available in a range of styles and can be fitted with a single or double car seat.

Stores

As well as offering comfort and safety for your little one, a pram or pushchair stroller needs to offer plenty of storage space for all the necessities. Find models with a large shopping basket to accommodate all of the baby's items like spare clothes, changing equipment, bottles of water, and even snacks. Some models have a compartment for the parent or child that is ideal to store your personal items. If you're looking for a stroller that has more storage opt for a model that comes with multiple configurations. Having extra space is especially important if you're planning to take your child for long walks or excursions away from home and need a place to store everything you might require.

Maneuvrability is a further aspect to think about. Choose swivels wheels to navigate narrow passageways easily. Also, look for locking brakes with a quick stopping power. If you're looking at an ultra-lightweight model, make sure it comes with the correct suspension system and foldable dimensions for simple storage and transport. If you're looking to buy something more durable for off-road travel then choose a model that has tough, all-terrain tires that can take on rough terrains.

The main distinction between a pram and pushchair is that a pushchair offers an easy, flat sleeping position for infants, while pushing chairs are more suited to older babies and toddlers who can sit up on their own. Some prams are convertible into pushchairs, by removing the bassinet and replacing it with a seat for an adult. Other models such as the Bababing Raffi Complete bundle are able to be converted into a carrycot or car seat.

If you're not sure the type of pram or pushchair to choose look up online reviews and ask friends and family for suggestions. Try out a variety of models before settling on one. This will give you an idea of their weight, their folding capabilities and how they feel. Consider a convertible car which can be used for one or two children. This will save you money since you won't need to purchase a new set of wheels every time your child grows.
