What to Look For in Push Chairs and Prams

The world of push chairs and prams can be confusing. Prams have a flat seat that is designed to carry babies and newborns.

Some prams include an infant bassinet or carrycot that is suitable for newborns. Some even have the option of being converted into a pushchair for older children.

If you are planning to use public transportation or have to fold up your pushchair regularly, opt for a lightweight and compact stroller buggy.

Comfort

Alongside bottles and nappies, your pushchair will be one of the most frequently used baby products you have. It is important to choose one that is full of padding and a comfortable seating position that can be adjusted to the height.

It's also worth noting that many prams or buggies are equipped with a fitted pram blanket, which can help to keep your child warm. They are easy to clean and come in a range of designs and colours.

A pram is designed for infants from 6 months to 6 years of age, and they are still at a stage where they require to lie flat. A carrycot, or bassinet, will be attached to the frame. Many prams allow the choice of either 'parent' facing or 'world facing. This allows you to decide if you want your baby to face you in order to bond with you, or explore the sights and sounds in their surroundings. Some prams convert into pushchairs, such as the iCandy Peach 7 – a premium single-to-double pushchair which can be used from birth using a carrycot and up to 25kg (15kg with elevators).

It is vital to remember that infants less than six months old shouldn't be carried in a stroller that doesn't recline fully flat. Traveling in a crouching position can affect their breathing as they inhale more than normal. This could lead to respiratory issues in the long term.

A pushchair is a chair that can be folded into a compact size. It's specifically designed for older children and toddlers. They're typically made of a more durable material than a pram, and you can usually find models that let you change the direction of the seat so that your child can face you to provide reassurance, or away from you so they can explore the world around them.

Safety

It is crucial to ensure your child is safe in a pram or pram. Only ever put your child in a pushchair or pram that is designed for his age and size. This will make them feel secure and safe and will help prevent accidents. If you are buying a secondhand stroller or pushchair, it is important to conduct a visual safety check. This will ensure that it's in good working order and not damaged in any way that could be harmful to your baby.

When you are choosing a pram or pushchair, look for one with a safety harness that has quick and easy clips and connections. Verify that the buckles don't have any slack and that the straps are snug around the baby's torso. Also, look for a wide base, which will give more stability than narrow-based models.

Be careful not to overload your pushchair or pram with items. This can cause it to tip and your baby could be thrown out. Also, don't put anything in the basket that could fall out and hurt your baby. This includes toys, drinks and food items.

Follow the instructions of the manufacturer on how to clean your pram or pushchair. If you are cleaning the fabric or the hood of your pushchair, make sure you dry it outside thoroughly. This will prevent mildew or mould from developing.

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

Experts suggest that infants lie down as soon as they can in a pram or pushchair. This will help their development and lessen back pain later in life.

Retailers and manufacturers have an obligation under the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 to offer products that are safe for the normal or reasonably anticipated use. This applies to new pushchairs and prams as well as second-hand ones.

Style

While some parents are seeking the most functional set of wheels that they have access to most parents would prefer a pram or pushchair that is as stylish as their new baby. There are numerous high-end prams and pushchairs that combine high-end engineering with attractive designs that are both eye-catching and practical.

The first thing to consider when choosing a pushchair pram is the padding and the options for adjustability. A pushchair that is simple to clean is essential for infants, who are often messy. This is especially important when you intend to take long walks in rough terrain or over dirt, gravel and cobbles. Search for a pushchair that includes removable seat covers as well as a recline mechanisms that can be washed in the machine. Make sure the fabric is also breathable to help keep your baby comfortable and dry.

You should also think about the direction your baby will be facing in their pushchair. Most 'from-birth' pushchairs 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 also have this option, but it may not be required for all models.

Combination prams, also called 3-in-1 prams, are a very popular choice for families as they can fit both a bassinet basket and a pushchair seat on the same frame. They are designed to be used from birth, and are suitable for babies up to six-months old.

A travel stroller system is an option to a combined pram as it allows you to fit a car seat onto the frame, typically by using adaptors. They are ideal for infants and toddlers from birth to three years old. They can be less expensive than buying separate products.

Twin prams and pushchairs can be an ideal choice for siblings or twins who require comfort and security. They are available in a range of styles and fitted with a single or double car seat.

Stores

A pushchair or pram must not only be safe and comfortable for your child, but offer ample storage for all the necessities. Look for models that have a large shopping basket to hold all of your baby's necessities like spare clothes as well as changing equipment, water bottles, and even snacks. Some models come with a compartment for the parent or child, which is perfect to store your personal items. If you want a pram that is more spacious opt for a model that comes with different configurations. Extra space is crucial if you plan to take your child on long walks or on trips away from home and need a place to store everything you'll require.

Another important aspect to consider is maneuverability. Opt for swivel wheels so you can make it easy to navigate narrow passageways and also look for brakes with locking that are able to stop quickly. If you are looking at a light-weight model, make sure it has the right suspension system and foldable dimensions for easy storage and transportation. If you're looking for something more durable for off-road travel then pick a model with sturdy all-terrain tires that can handle rougher surfaces.

The primary distinction between a pram and pushchair is that a pram offers a lie-flat sleeping position for infants, whereas the pushchair is better suitable for older infants and toddlers who are able to sit up on their own. Some prams convert into pushchairs by removing the bassinet and replacing it with a seat for an adult. Other models, like the Bababing Raffi Complete bundle are able to convert into a carrycot, or car seat.

If you are unsure about the type of pushchair or pram to select look up reviews on the internet and ask friends and family for suggestions. Try out several models before you make your decision. This will provide you with an idea of their weight, their fold and how they feel. You may also want think about whether a convertible model is the best travel stroller option for you, because they can be used interchangeably between two babies and reduce the cost of buying an entirely new set of wheels each time your little one gets older!
