Pushchairs - The Swiss Army Knife of Baby Transport

A pushchair, also referred to as a pram and travel system, buggy or stroller, is like the Swiss army knife of baby transport. These baby-chariots can be used on any surface, from crowded streets to rough terrain.

A quality pushchair will provide security and comfort to your child, convenience to you, and the chance for you both to bond and explore together. Find out what to consider when you are buying a pushchair.

Folding

One of the most important characteristics that many parents are looking for when selecting the best pushchair is how simple it folds. A standout is the EeZeFold, which has an incredible one-handed fold that allows you to hold your child while folding the buggy. This means that you don't have to switch between the two. The buggy is stable when folded so you don't have to be concerned about your child falling out.

Some of the most compact folding pushchairs (like the Babyzen YOYO) are designed to fold so small they fit into the trunk of your car, which means they're ideal if you're a frequent traveler or have a small car boot. Some are small buggies designed for everyday use, which have a smaller footprint than the standard triple pushchair, but have features that are good, such as a comfortable recline or light wheels. These buggies are usually lightweight enough to be carried by hand and so Grandma or Grandad can use them if necessary.

Some pushchairs are able to be used from birth, as they come with a lie-flat seat or carrycot option. They may also be travel system compatible which means you can connect an infant car seat to the frame in a single click.

A lot of compact pushchairs are extremely compact when folded with the seat attached. They're perfect for those who have a limited storage space at home, or who live in apartments. They're also light and they often come with a raincover to protect them against the elements.

The Ergobaby Pivot 360 is another really popular pushchair in this class it is an ideal option for traveling as it can fold one-handed by simply pressing the button. It's also incredibly light, making it easy to maneuver on rough surfaces, and has great suspension. The seat can be turned to face either the world or the parent and the hood can also be extended to offer additional sun protection.

Convertible

A convertible stroller can be reshaped to meet the needs of growing families. It can be used as a single stroller, transform into a double stroller for children and even turn into a triple stroller by the addition of an additional seat or ride-along boards. Our top choice is the UppaBaby Vista V2, is a multi-functional stroller that can be converted to accommodate a bassinet, car seat for infants, one or two toddler seats and an additional child through the use of adapters.

Convertible strollers should have adjustable features, such as height and reclining settings. They should also come with large, easy-to-grip handles that make it comfortable for dad, mom or grandma to push. Also, since these types of strollers typically have more parts than traditional pushchairs they need to be more stable and less likely to tip over when carrying a number of children or loads of equipment.

The Larktale crossover stroller/wagon is the first of its kind that combines a fully-featured single stroller compact with the pull wagon, removing the need for parents to buy separate products. It is quick and easy to convert to a double or single stroller without tools or additional conversion kits, and provides plenty of seating versatility with the second seat and pull handle when it is in wagon mode. Although the Larktale is a bit bulkier than our other top-rated convertibles is very maneuverable and can be maneuvered well over hills. Its biggest flaw is the lack of storage space underneath the seat. Click here for more details.

Safety

A great pushchair should come with a number of safety features like the five-point harness for infants. It should be placed over the shoulders as well as around the waist, and between the legs. It is also essential that the harness isn't out of its place and that there are no places where a child could get their fingers stuck.

Select the brake that best suits your lifestyle. A foot brake is the most commonly used and ideal for those who are likely to stop often for shopping. Many jogger-style pushchairs have a hand brake. This is useful when you are changing your speed often, like when running. Some pushchairs come with an active hand brake which operates by pressing a pedal using your foot. This is a great option for parents who will be stopping and starting their pushchairs more frequently. It allows you to stay in your position while applying pressure to the wheels.

Verify that the front wheel of the pushchair is able to be locked. This is particularly useful for those who live in areas with uneven terrain or steep slopes. A lockable wheel in the front of the pushchair can prevent the pushchair from rolling away when you're in a hurry or have lots of luggage in the rear.

While it may seem like a minor consideration, you should also consider the weight of the stroller. Even a light pushchair can become surprisingly heavy when stuffed with a growing child and shopping bags. Be sure to know the weight of the pushchair and think about whether you'd be in a position to lift it into your car boot and then up a flight of stairs while holding a toddler and juggling a cup of coffee from a takeaway.

A babiie pram, buggy or pushchair is made for babies who sit up and is generally used from 6 months. The seat can be placed to face you or away from you, depending on whether you want your child to connect with you or explore the world. A lot of pushchairs come with adjustable seats, handlebars and other accessories.

Comfort

There are many pushchairs that come with features that are comfortable for parents. Some are better suited for urban streets or rough terrain but others are not. The brake type is another aspect to take into consideration. A foot brake, for instance is ideal for everyday use. A hand brake that is active that is found on pushchairs with joggers can be more responsive on an adventure.

The ability of your pushchair to permit newborns to lie flat is among the most important characteristics. It is crucial to select the pushchair with this feature right from birth. This will let your baby grow into an upright position. This will allow your child to sleep or relax in a comfortable position, allowing for longer outdoor adventures and a happier and healthier child.

If you're going to be using a car seat in conjunction with your pushchair, you need to select a model that is compatible with the infant car seat. This makes it quick and simple to move your child from the car to the pushchair, reducing stress and keeping him calm throughout his excursions.

Some pushchairs have a smart adaptor for car seats that allows you to connect your car seat. You can use the seat from birth until toddlerhood, and save time and money. Many brands also offer a travel bundle that includes the carrycot, baby car seat, adaptors, and a footmuff all in one purchase.

A good suspension system is also crucial, especially for the front wheels. This can make a huge difference when driving on rough terrain or urban streets, allowing you to navigate bumps and uneven surface with ease while keeping the baby in a comfortable position.

You may also want to think about other practical comfort features, such as a spacious basket (or separate bag) as well as the ability to recline handles with an adjustable seat, as well as a ventilated hood. The combination of these features will assist you navigate to the city or out in the country and ensure that your child has the best quality sleep possible for the longest nap possible.
