Seat

It is likely that your baby will be using the pram frequently, so it is important to ensure it's comfortable. Find models with comfortable seat padding, adjustable handlebar height and recline function that allows you to get your child asleep. Check that the pushchair has a 'parent-facing' (or rear facing) or 'world-facing' option in case your child wishes to observe more of what's going on around them.

A nifty feature on the Graco Near2Me is its capability to bring your child up to you at the touch of a button, allowing parents to maintain eye contact with their baby and keep them close. Jaya, our parent tester, praised this as an excellent option for newborns and infants.

It's important to consider the overall dimensions of a pram when selecting, as you do not want it to take up too much space in the trunk of your car or in your living area. Select a model that can fold easily and compact strollers when folded to ensure it will fit. You can determine how easy or difficult it is by reading reviews (like those found on MadeForMums).

A quality pram should be able to fold flat when folded. This will ensure that your baby gets a completely supported sleep for their first six months, which is crucial for their development. Check that the pram that you are thinking about buying can do this, and also that it can be used with a car seat in the event that it is required.

Wheels

The wheels move the pram and give your child a safe ride. There are 3 in one pushchair common wheel types - rubber foam, and EVA (harder plastic type). Each type has pros and cons depending on what you intend to use your pushchair.

The most popular type of rubber wheel is the and offer excellent grip on all surfaces. The only downside is that they could be punctured if they are inflated too hard using the pump of a car tyre. However this usually happens caused by someone over inflating the tires and isn't a common problem. This type of wheel is typically used on buggies that run all-terrain.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are stuffed with foam, so they are lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock absorption capabilities and can feel more abrasive on rough concrete surfaces. They are more commonly found on prams than strollers and are the most affordable option.

EVA or Ethylene Vinyl Acetate is a stronger plastic that is lightweight and has some of the characteristics of rubber but not as much. It can be used to replace PU or rubber in your pram due to its ease of maintenance and weight reduction.

Having strong reliable brakes on your pram is a must and will protect your baby, you and pedestrians. Most pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a button or lever on the handlebars, or by pressing down with your feet. The brakes must be easy to operate and should lock immediately when you press them. Some pushchairs have a mid-wheel brake for added stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is an easy-to-use portable cot that can be affixed to the frame of any pushchair. It is a fantastic option for newborns up to around six months old since they require a flat position and be able to breathe, which is crucial for their spinal and lung development. A pram with a carrycot is a great option for parents who are limited on space, have a small car boot or who use public transport often.

Some prams come with a built-in carrying cot that can be folded into the frame. This allows you to quickly change between carriage and seat modes. This is a great option for families who have a small car boot or use public transport often. It can help you save time and effort.
