What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also known as a stroller or a pushchair) is the primary mode of transportation for babies and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort, 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 to 3-year-old kids. The reversible handle lets you turn the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

You want your child to be at ease when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams specifically designed to ensure that your baby isn't apprehensive.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide all allow your baby to lie flat, which is essential for newborn babies as lying flat increases oxygen saturation and supports their developing hips and spine. The seats can be adjusted to an upright position when your baby is able to sit up.

For a really high-end experience, the Venicci egg2 provides a warm cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seats that does not recline to a lying-flat position, but has padding on the liner and mattress. It's also lighter than other prams, at a weight of just 8kg. However, it still has a sturdy chassis with grained leather details and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.

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 sleek, one-hand steer model isn't as lightweight as some of the other prams we've tested but it does have a large storage basket, as well as an extendable hood with UPF 50+ protection, which will keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're a first time parent we suggest that you look into a travel system package which includes a car seat and pram that attaches to the same frame. This will make it easier to get your baby from the car to the pram without waking them and is perfect for busy parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and functional travel system pram that converts easily from a'pramette' lying flat' to a toddler-friendly pushchair compatible with the Graco i-Size car seat.

Safety

A pram should have a five-point safety harness to ensure your baby is safe and secure. It should not have any gaps to entrap their legs or heads. The straps must be cushioned, and easily adjustable as your child grows. You should also inspect the buckles of your harness to ensure that they aren't cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Every year, a lot of children are admitted to hospitals because of injuries caused by prams and strollers. Tipping over is the most common reason for these injuries. Even the strongest prams could tip over if you hook your bags onto the handles or if a child is wriggling or squirming and falls in or out of the seat before the harness has been tightened.

A common cause of injury involves falling from a pram, or stroller. If a baby isn't securely secured in, they could fall out of the stroller and suffer neck or head injuries. It is therefore essential to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the proper position.

Some prams have a reversible shade which can be used to protect your baby in both directions from the sun. This is a useful feature as you can avoid having to wake your baby awake while you change their position in the pram or while you go into and out of shops. Other handy features include a tray for snacks and drink holders for your infant or toddler, a shopping basket under the seat and a handlebar that can be locked into place when you're not using it.

You should never leave a sleeping child in their stroller unless they are within sight of them at all times. Babies are susceptible to wriggling while sleeping, which could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This could lead to suffocation and strangulation. A stroller or running pram should not be used as a substitute for the crib. It is best to use it for short periods of time during the day.

The majority of prams require you to disassemble them in order to put them in the car's boot therefore it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with this procedure before purchasing one. Check 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 want to make sure that your baby's Pram For Newborn is able to handle muddy walks, as well as multiple car trips. You want to make sure that your pram is a color or pattern that isn't prone to fading so you don't look like you've fallen out of fashion.

The most reliable prams are constructed from high-quality materials and built to last. Look for durable materials with sturdy tires, as well as an efficient suspension system. The best prams are compact and fold easily so that you can store them in your garage or boot.

All the prams in this list allow babies to lie on their backs. This is important for infants because it aids in the development of their spine and hips and boosts oxygen levels. Many of these prams have been designed to expand with your child. Some have a carrycot, or a reclined seat that can be removed and snapped on when your child outgrows them.

If you are considering buying an infant stroller for the first time, a travel system that includes both a carrycot and a car seat could be of interest. We love the Graco Near2Me system which our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with a clever feature that raises and lowers your child with the click of a button. This way you can maintain eye contact and keep them close which she described as being important for her son as the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our test-driver Jess Bird tried with her two kids Effie & Boden (pictured above). It's a pushchair that can be transformed from a single pushchair into double in 30 different configurations. It also has a sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap but you could 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 using the carrycot included.

Style

Newborns need to lay flat as often as possible to aid development and improve oxygen saturation in their lungs. Therefore, it is essential that all prams support this. Some models allow an entirely flat position using a carrycot that can be completely reclined, while others feature a seat that can recline to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me features the latter feature, and it's fantastic at what it does as our tester for parents Jaya found when she tested it with her son of 10 months. She was thrilled that she could raise and lower her baby at the push of a button and keep him in the view of others and still maintain eye contact and closeness.

It's a great stroller for those who want to travel around town without hassle since the frame is a great size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres allow you to move it off the road and on to rough terrain. It's also a good option if you're thinking of having another child in the near future since it can easily be converted from a single pushchair to a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a premium, stylish option. It is suitable for newborns as it includes a carrycot that can lie flat and it's compatible with a car seat if purchased separately. You can even fold it with the carrycot in place - something that does not happen with all prams, so it's an easy and time-saving feature.

Its luxurious fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tyres are the kind of features you'd expect to see on a premium pram and travel system and its sleek design makes it easy to maneuver across a variety of terrains. This is an excellent choice when you live in a city and must navigate narrow streets or crowded walkways regularly. While it's not cheap, the quality and versatility of this model will save you money in the end by avoiding the need to buy an additional pushchair for toddlers. It's available in a wide selection of colors as well, so you can choose one that fits your personal style.
