What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a pushchair, stroller or a Sling, is the main form of transport for babies and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort, and design to make walking enjoyable for the whole family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a great pram for newborns to 3-year-old kids. Its reversible handle allows you to turn the seat so your child can face either you or the world around them.

Comfort

You want your baby to feel comfortable when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams made to ensure that your baby does not feel anything.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide all allow your baby to lie flat, which is essential for infants as lying flat improves oxygen saturation and assists in the development of their spine and hips. The seats can also be adjusted to a more upright position once your child is capable of sitting up.

For a really high-end experience this Venicci egg2 has a cosy feeling of a cocoon for your baby with smooth, curved lines and a bucket-shape seat that doesn't recline to a lie-flat position, but it does have a padded mattress and liner. It's also lighter than other prams on the market at less than 8kg, but it has an extremely sturdy chassis and grained leather details, plus air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof, and can be used in more rural environments.

If you want something more budget-friendly but with a similar design, the Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a great option. The sleek one-hand steer model isn't as light as the other prams we've tested but it has an impressively large storage basket and the ability to extend the hood, which comes with UPF 50+ protection that'll keep your baby safe and shaded.

If you're a new parent, we'd recommend considering a travel system bundle which includes a pram as well as a 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 parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and functional pram that can convert easily from a lie-flat 'pramette' to a toddler-friendly pushchair that is compatible with the Graco i-Size car seat.

Safety

A pram must have a five-point safety harness to ensure your baby pram is safe and secure. It should not have any gaps to entrap their heads or legs. The straps must be cushioned and easy to adjust as they expand. Check the buckles on the harness to make sure they're not cracked and show signs of wear. Many children are admitted to hospitals every year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. Tipping over is the primary cause of these injuries. Even the strongest prams can tip over if you attach bags on the handles, or if a child with a wriggling gets into or out of the seat without harnesses being done up.

Another common cause of injuries is falling from the pram or stroller. If a baby is not securely fastened in the pram, they could fall out of the pram and suffer neck or head injuries. It is therefore essential to make sure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into place.

Some prams with good quality also have a canopy that can be reversible to shield your baby from the sun in both directions. This is a useful feature as you can avoid having to wake your child awake when you change their position in the pram, or when you are going in and out of shops. Other handy features include a tray for snacks and drink holders for your baby or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat and the handlebar locks in place when you are not using it.

It is not advisable to leave a child sleeping in their stroller unless they are in their sight at all times. Babies tend to wriggle while asleep and this may cause them to roll off the stroller or pram and can lead to suffocation or strangulation. A pram or a stroller is not an alternative to a crib. It should only be used for short periods of time during the daytime.

Most prams require you to dismantle them to fit them into the trunk of your car therefore it's recommended to familiarize yourself with this procedure before you purchase one. Also check how it is easy to put the various sections back together and then click them in place.

Durability

A pram should be able to stand up to the wear and tear of many years. This includes the need to endure the mud-filled walks and numerous car seat pram journeys, so you want to be sure your choice is able to do the job you need it to. You should ensure that your pram is a color or pattern that won't fade easily so you don't look like you've lost fashion.

The most effective prams are constructed with high-quality materials. They have been designed to last, so look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels, and an efficient suspension system. The most effective prams are small and fold easily, so you can store them in your garage or boot.

All the prams in this list allow infants to lie flat, which is essential for newborns as it improves oxygen saturation levels and supports the development of their spine and hips. Many are designed to grow with your child, with some of them having a carrycot or fully-reclined seat that can be moved on and off the frame at a time when your child outgrows it.

If you are considering buying a pram for the very first time, a travel system prams system that includes both the carrycot as well as a car seat could be a good idea. We are awestruck by the Graco Near2Me device that our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with an innovative feature that lets you raise and lower your child with the touch of a single button. This allows you to maintain eye contact with your child and keep them close.

Another alternative is 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 luxury pram that converts from a single pushchair to a double pushchair with 30 possible configurations. It also comes with luxurious fabrics, an expandable sun canopy and puncture-proof tyres. It's not inexpensive, but you can use it with more than one child if you need to. Like our top pick, the iCandy Orange 3 with its carrycot can be used as early as.

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lie as flat as they can. This will aid in their development and improve oxygen saturation in the lungs. Some models create a completely flat surface with a fully-reclinable carrycot, while others have seats that recline to a flat position.

The Graco Near2Me works great for both, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her child who was 10 months old. She was enthralled by the fact that she could raise or lower her baby at the touch of a button and keep him in sight while maintaining eye contact and closeness.

The frame is perfect for nipping around town and the puncture-proof wheels allow you to take it off the road or on rough terrain. It's also a smart option if you're thinking of having a second child in the future since it is able to convert from a single Pram For Newborn into a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that is both stylish and comfortable. It's suitable for newborns because it includes a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with a car seat when you purchase it separately. It can be folded using the carrycot as a stand which is something not all prams can do, so it's 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 easy to maneuver over different terrains. This is an excellent choice for those who live in the city and must navigate narrow streets or congested paths on a regular basis. This pram is not cheap but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money in the long run by avoiding the purchase of an additional stroller for your toddler. It's available in an extensive variety of colors, as well, so you can choose one that fits your personal style.
