What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also called a stroller travel or pushchair) is the most popular form of transport for infants and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort, and style to make walking enjoyable for the entire family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a fantastic pram for newborns up to 3 year old children. The reversible handle lets you turn the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

When you're out and about with your baby, you want to ensure that they're safe. The good news is that there are prams specifically designed to ensure your little one isn't apprehensive.

The prams we've selected in this buying guide all allow your baby to lay flat, which is essential for infants as lying flat improves oxygen levels and helps support their growing hips and spine. They also come with a seat that can be changed to a more upright position when your baby is old enough to sit.

For a luxurious experience it's the Venicci egg2 has a cosy cocoon-like feel for your baby with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seating that does not recline to a lying-flat position but does have a padded mattress and liner. It's also lighter than other prams on the market at less than 8kg but has an extremely sturdy chassis and grained leather details as well as tyres with air-filled tires that are puncture-proof and able to be used in more rural environments.

The Minu V2 is a great option to consider if you're looking to buy something with a similar design but for a lesser price. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as light as other prams, but it does have a large storage basket. It also comes with an hood that can be extended, which provides UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby safe and protected.

If you're the first parent of your child we suggest you look into a travel system bundle which includes a pram and car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This will make it much easier to transfer your child from the car into the pram without having to wake them up and is perfect for busy parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and functional travel system pram that converts easily from a lie-flat 'pramette' to a toddler-friendly pushchair, compatible with the Graco i-Size car seat.

Safety

The pram should be fitted with a five-point safety harness that will keep your baby safe. It should also have no gaps in which their heads or legs can get trapped. The straps must be cushioned and easily adjustable as your child grows. Check the buckles on the harness to make sure they're not cracked and show signs of wear. A lot of children are hospitalized every year due to injuries from strollers or prams. Tipping over is the most common cause of these injuries. Even the sturdiest prams can tip over if you hook bags to the handles or if a child who is wriggling is able to get into or out of the seat without harnesses being properly secured.

A common cause of injury involves falling from a pram or stroller. If a baby isn't securely fastened in the pram, they could fall out of the pram and suffer neck or head injuries. This is why it is important to make sure that the harness buckle is always locked in place.

Some good prams also have an adjustable canopy that can protect your baby from sun in both directions. This is a handy feature because it will prevent having to wake your baby awake while you change their position in the pram or when you go in and out of shops. Other useful features include a snack tray and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat, and a handlebar that locks in place when you are not using it.

Do not leave a baby asleep in a pram without having them within reach. Babies are prone to wriggling while sleeping and could cause them to fall out of the stroller or pram. This could result in suffocation and strangulation. A pram or foldable stroller is not a substitute for a cot and should be used only for short periods during the day.

Most prams require you to disassemble them in order to put them in the boot of your car so it is an excellent idea to familiarize yourself with the process before purchasing one. Also, check how easy it is to get the various sections back together and then click them into place.

Durability

A pram needs to be able to endure a long time of wear. You want to make sure that your pram can handle the mud of a walk and also multiple car trips. You also want your pram to come in an image or color that doesn't get outdated to avoid looking like you've gone out of fashion.

The top prams are constructed of high-quality materials and have been designed to last, so you should look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels and an effective suspension system. The best prams are compact and fold easily so that you can store them in your garage or the boot of your car.

All prams on this list allow a baby to lie flat, which is vital for newborns because it improves oxygen saturation levels and supports the development of their spine and hips. A lot of them are designed to grow with your child and some having a carrycot or a fully reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame when your child outgrows it.

If you are buying a pram for the very first time it is recommended to consider a system that has the carrycot as well as a car seat may be worth a look. We love the Graco Near2Me device that our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It is a revolutionary feature that lets you raise and lower your baby at the touch of a single button. This allows you to keep eye contact with your child and keep them close.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our tester Jess Bird tried with her two children Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a stroller that can be transformed from a single pushchair into double, with 30 different configurations. It also features sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap, but it can be used for more than one child if you need to. And like our winner iCandy Orange 3, the iCandy Orange 3 with its carrycot included can be used as early as.

Style

Newborns need to lay flat as much as they can in order to promote development and increase the oxygen level in their lungs. Therefore, it is essential that all prams permit this. Some models allow an entirely flat position using a carrycot that can be completely reclined, while others have a seat which reclines to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for the latter as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her 10-month-old daughter. She loved the fact that she could raise or lower her baby at the push of a button to keep him in view while maintaining eye contact and a closeness.

The frame is perfect for city trips, and the puncture-proof tires permit you to take it off road or over rough terrain. It's a great choice if you plan to have another child in the near future, as it can easily be transformed from a single pushchair a twin stroller or double.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a stylish, high-end option. It's ideal for babies because it comes with a lie-flat baby carrycot and is compatible with a car seat in the event that you purchase it separately. It can be folded using the carrycot as a stand and it's something that does not happen with all prams and is an efficient and easy feature.

Its luxurious fabrics, large shopping basket and puncture-proof tires are the kinds of features you'd expect to see on a high-end pram and its sleek design makes it easy to handle on a variety of terrains. This is an excellent choice for those who live in the city and must navigate narrow streets or congested pathways on a regular basis. This pram is not cheap but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money over time by avoiding the need for a separate toddler stroller. It's available in a wide range of colors, and you can choose one that suits your personal style.
