What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also known as a pushchair, stroller or sling, is the primary form of transport for babies and toddlers. A good pram combines comfort, safety and style to make walking enjoyable for the whole family.

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

Comfort

Your baby should be at ease when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams made to ensure your little one does not feel anything.

All the prams in this guide let your baby lie flat. This is essential for babies as it increases oxygenation and helps support their hips and spine. They also come with seats that can be converted to more upright positions when your baby is old enough to sit up.

For a truly luxurious experience, the Venicci egg2 offers a cozy feeling of a cocoon for your baby with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seat that doesn't recline to a lie-flat position, but it does have a padded liner and mattress. It's also a little lighter than the majority of prams available at less than 8kg, but it has an extremely sturdy chassis and grained leather details and air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof and can be used in more rural environments.

If you're looking for something a bit more budget-friendly but with the same style Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a great option. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as lightweight as other strollers, but it does have a huge storage basket. It also comes with an extended hood that provides UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby safe and shaded.

If you're a new parent we recommend a best travel pram system bundle that includes a pram and car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This will make it easier to transfer your child from the car to the pram without disturbing them and is ideal for busy parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is an elegant and practical pram that is able to be easily converted from a 'pramette,' or lie-flat 'pramette, to a stroller for toddlers compatible with the Graco iSize car seat.

Safety

A pram must have a five point safety harness to ensure your baby is secure and should not allow any gaps that could trap their heads or legs. The straps must be cushioned, and easily adjustable as your child grows. Examine the buckles on the harness to make sure they're not damaged and show signs of wear. Many children are hospitalised each year because of pram or stroller-related injuries. Tipping over is the main reason for these injuries. Even the strongest prams could tip over when you hang your bags onto the handles or if a child is wriggling or squirming and falls in or out of the seat before the harness is tightened.

Another frequent cause of injury is falling from the stroller or pram. If a baby's harness is not secured properly it can cause them to fall from the stroller and suffer neck or head injuries. This is why it is important to ensure 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 either direction. This is a great feature as you can avoid having to wake your baby awake while you change their position in the pram or while you are going in and out of shops. There are other features that could be useful, for example an eating tray for your child or toddler and drink holders. There's also a shopping basket underneath the seat.

It is not advisable to let a child sleep in their stroller unless you are within their reach at all times. Babies are susceptible to wiggle while asleep and this could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This can lead to suffocation and strangulation. A pram or a stroller should not be used as a substitute for the cot. It should only be used for short periods during the day.

It is necessary to take apart most prams pushchairs prams pushchairs in order to fit them into the boot of your vehicle. This process should be familiarised with before you purchase a pram. Find out how easy it will be to put the parts back together.

Durability

A pram must be durable enough to withstand many years of wear and tear. You should ensure that your stroller can withstand slippery walks as well as a variety of car trips. You should ensure that your pram is a color or pattern that isn't prone to fading so that you don't appear like you've fallen out of style.

The most reliable prams are constructed from high-quality materials and built to last. Look for durable materials with sturdy tires, as well as a well-designed system of suspension. The most reliable prams have a compact travel pram fold so you can store them easily in your garage or in the boot when not when not in use.

All the prams in this list allow babies to lie on their backs. This is important for newborns, 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 snapped on and off as your child grows.

If you are purchasing a pram for the very first time you should consider a travel system that comes with the carrycot as well as car seats could be a good idea. Our parent tester Jaya loved the Graco Near2Me System that she used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with a clever feature that can raise or lower your baby at the touch of a button so you can keep eye contact and keep them close, which she described as being important to her since the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

Another option is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two babies, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pram that can be transformed from a single pushchair to double, with 30 different configurations. It also has the sun canopy which can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap, but you can use it for more than one child in the event of need and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the included carrycot.

Style

Newborns must lie flat as much as they can to help develop and improve oxygen saturation in their lungs, which is why it's important that all prams support this. Some models create a completely flat position using a fully reclineable carrycots, while others have seats that recline to a flat position.

The Graco Near2Me is a great device for the latter, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her 10-month-old daughter. She loved the ability to raise or lower her baby by pressing the button to keep him in the same position and still maintain the eye contact and closeness.

It's a great pram for those that want to nip around town without hassle since the frame is a great size for manoeuvring, while the puncture-proof tyres let you move it off the road and onto rough terrain. It's an excellent choice if you plan to have a child in the future, as it can easily be converted from a single pushchair into a double or twin.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a premium, stylish option. It's ideal for infants as it comes with a lie-flat baby carrycot and is compatible with car seats when you purchase it separately. You can fold it with the carrycot in place and it's something that not all prams can do and is a time-saving and hassle-free feature.

The pram's luxurious fabrics large basket, spacious interior, and puncture-proof tires are features you would expect to see in a top model however, the sleek frame makes it simple for you to maneuver on different terrains. It's also a great option for those who live in a large city and need to negotiate narrow streets or busy sidewalks frequently. This pram is not cheap but its versatility and quality can save you money in the long run by avoiding the purchase of a separate toddler stroller. You can pick from a wide range of colors to match your preferences.
