What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also called a stroller or pushchair) is the main form of transport for infants and toddlers. A good pram combines safety, comfort and design that makes walking fun for all family members.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller is a great stroller for infants to three years old. The adjustable handle can be turned around to allow you to turn the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

Your baby should be comfortable when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams designed to ensure that your baby isn't apprehensive.

All the prams listed in this guide allow your baby to lay flat. This is important for newborns as it improves oxygenation and strengthens their hips and spine. The seats can also be adjusted to a more upright position when your baby is capable of sitting up.

For a luxurious feel, the Venicci egg2 has a cosy cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seat that does not recline to a lying-flat position but does have padding on the mattress and liner. It's also lighter than other prams, at a weight of just 8kg. However, it still has a sturdy chassis with the grained leather accents and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.

The Minu V2 is a great choice when you're looking for a model with a similar look but at a lower price. The sleek one-hand steer model isn't as lightweight as some of the other prams we tested however it comes with a large storage basket and extendable hood with UPF 50+ protection, which will keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're a first-time parent we recommend a travel system bundle which includes a pram as well as a car seat that attach to the same frame. This makes it easier to get your baby from the car to the pram without disturbing them and is ideal for busy parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and useful pram for travel that can be converted easily from a'pramette' lying flat to a pushchair for toddlers that is compatible with the Graco i-Size car seat.

Safety

A pram pushchair 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 easily adjustable as your child grows. Check the buckles on the harness to make sure they're not damaged and show signs of wear. Every year, a lot of children are hospitalised because of injuries caused by prams or strollers. Tipping over is the main cause of these injuries. Even the strongest prams can tip over if you attach bags on the handles, or if a wriggling child is able to get into or out of the seat without the harness being properly secured.

Another reason for injuries is falling from the pram or stroller. If a baby is not properly secured, they could fall out of the stroller and sustain neck or head injuries. It is therefore important to ensure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into the correct position.

Some good prams also have a canopy that can be reversible to protect your baby from sun in any direction. This feature is useful because you don'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 infant or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat and a handlebar that locks into position when you're not using it.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without being within sight. Babies tend to wiggle while asleep and this can cause them to roll off the stroller or pram and cause suffocation or strangulation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a cot and should only be used for short periods of time during the day.

It is essential to disassemble most prams in order to fit them in the trunk of your car. This procedure is something you should know before you purchase one. Also, consider how it is simple to put the different parts back together before putting them into place.

Durability

A pram needs to be durable enough to withstand 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 will do the job you need it to. You also want your pram to come in an image or color that won't date quickly so that you don't end up looking like you've gone out of style.

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

All the prams in this list allow babies to lay flat. This is important for infants because it allows them to develop their spine and hips and boosts oxygen levels. Many of these prams have been designed to grow along with your child's. Some have a carrycot, or a reclined seat that can be easily removed and put back on when your child outgrows them.

If you're looking to purchase a brand new pram for the first time, you may also be interested in a travel system that is a complete package that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. We love the Graco Near2Me device that our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It is a revolutionary feature that lets you raise and lower your child by pressing one button. This allows you to keep eye contact with the baby and keep them in close proximity.

Another option is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two children, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a luxurious pram that converts from a single to a double pushchair with 30 possible configurations. It also comes with luxe fabrics, an extendable sun canopy, and puncture-proofed tyres. It's not cheap but you could use it for more than one child, if you need to and, just like the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth using the included carrycot.

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lie flat as possible. This will aid in their development and increase oxygen saturation in the lungs. Some models allow a completely flat position using a fully reclineable carrycot, while others have the seat that can recline to an upright position.

The Graco Near2Me features the latter feature, and it's fantastic at what it does as our tester for parents Jaya discovered when she tried it with her 10-month-old son. She loved the fact that she could raise and lower her baby at the touch of a button to keep him in sight while maintaining eye contact and closeness.

It's a great pram for those who wish to nip around town without hassle since the frame is a great size for manoeuvring, while the puncture-proof tyres allow you to remove it from the road and onto rough terrain. It's a great option if you plan to have a second child in the near future since it can be converted from a single pushchair to a twin pram or double.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that is both stylish and comfortable. It is suitable for newborns because it includes a carrycot which can lie flat and it's compatible with car seats when purchased separately. It can be folded while the carrycot still in place, which is a feature that not all prams have. This is time-saving and makes it more convenient to use.

Its luxe fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tyres are the kind of features you'd expect to see on a high-end pram and its sleek design makes it easy to maneuver on a variety of terrains. This is an excellent choice when you live in a city and have to navigate narrow streets or crowded walkways regularly. Although it's not cheap, the quality and versatility of this stroller make it possible to save you money in the end by eliminating the need to purchase a separate pushchair for toddlers. It's available in an extensive variety of colors, and you can pick one that matches your personal style.
