What Makes Good Prams?

A pram (also called a pushchair or stroller) is the primary mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A great pram combines comfort, safety and design that makes walking fun for the entire family.

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

Comfort

Your baby should feel comfortable when you're out with them. The good news is that there are prams made to ensure your little one doesn't feel a thing.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide allow your baby to lie flat, which is important for infants as lying flat improves oxygen levels and supports their developing hips and spine. They also come with seats that can be changed to more upright positions when your baby is old enough to sit.

For a truly luxurious experience this Venicci egg2 provides a warm cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seats that doesn't recline into a lie-flat position but does have a padded liner and mattress. It's also lighter than the majority of prams on the market at under 8kg but still has a sturdy chassis and grained leather accents and air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof, and can handle more rugged terrains.

If you want something less expensive but still with the same design Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a great option. The one-hand steer model, swish, isn't as light as other prams, but it does have a huge storage basket. It also comes with an extendable hood that offers UPF 50+ protection to keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you are a first time parent, we recommend that you look into a travel system package which includes a car seat as well as a Pram for newborn that attaches to the same frame. This allows parents to transfer their child from the car to the pram without having to get them up. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and functional pram that is able to be easily converted from a 'pramette, or a lie-flat 'pramette' into a toddler-friendly stroller compatible with the Graco ISize car seats.

Safety

The pram should be equipped with a five-point safety harness that will ensure your baby's safety. It must also be free of gaps in which their heads or legs are likely to get caught. The straps should be padded and easy to adjust as they grow. Examine the buckles on the harness to ensure they are not damaged and show signs of wear. Many children are admitted to hospitals each year because of injuries from strollers or prams. Tipping over is the most common reason for these injuries. Even the sturdiest prams for newborns can fall over if you hang bags to the handles or if a child who is wriggling can get in or out of the seat without the harness being done up.

A common cause of injury is falling from a pram or stroller. If a baby's harness isn't secured correctly it could cause them to fall from the stroller and suffer neck or head injuries. Therefore, it is important to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into the proper position.

Some prams have a reversible shade which can be used to protect your baby in either direction from the sun. This feature is helpful because you won't have to wake up your baby every time you change their position in the stroller, or when you go into and out of shops. Other useful features include a snack tray and drink holders for your infant or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat and the handlebar can be locked into place when you are not using it.

It is not advisable to let a child sleep in their stroller unless you are within their reach at all times. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep, which can cause them to fall off the pram or stroller and cause suffocation or strangulation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a cot and should only be used for short periods during the daytime.

It is essential to disassemble most prams in order to fit them into the trunk of your car. This procedure is something you should know before you purchase a pram. Find out how easy it will be to put the sections back together.

Durability

A pram must be able endure several years of wear. This includes the need to endure muddy walks and getting through many car journeys, so you must ensure your choice can fulfill the tasks you require it to. You want to make sure that your stroller is in a colour or print that will not date easily to avoid looking like you've fallen out of style.

The best prams are made from high-quality materials and are built to last. So, look for durable fabrics, sturdy wheels and an efficient suspension system. The most reliable prams have a compact travel pram fold, so they are easy to store in your garage or boot when not when not in use.

All the prams on this list allow babies to lie flat, which is essential for newborns because it improves oxygen saturation levels and aids in the development of their spine and hips. A lot of them are designed to adapt to your child's needs, with some of them having a carrycot or fully-reclined seat that can be moved off and back on the frame for when your child outgrows it.

If you're looking to purchase a brand new pram for the first time, you might be interested in a travel set which is a package that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. We love the Graco Near2Me system which our parent tester Jaya used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with an innovative feature that allows you to raise and lower your child by pressing one button. This allows you to keep your eyes on them and keep them close.

Another alternative is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two children, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a luxurious pushchair that can be converted from a single pushchair to double pushchair and has 30 possible configurations and features luxe fabrics, an extendable sun canopy, and puncture-proofed tyres. It's not cheap, but you could use it for more than one child, if you need to and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the included carrycot.

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lie flat as possible. This will aid in their development and increase oxygen saturation in the lungs. Some models allow a completely flat surface with a fully-reclinable carrycot, while others have the seat that can recline to an unflat position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for this as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her 10-month-old daughter. She was thrilled to be able to raise or lower her baby by pressing an button, keeping him in the same position, while still maintaining closeness and eye contact.

This frame is perfect for city trips and the puncture-proof tires permit you to take it off the road or on rough terrain. It's also a good choice if you're planning on having another child in the near future because it easily converts from a single pushchair to a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a premium, stylish option. It's suitable for newborns because it comes with a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with a car seat when you purchase it separately. It can be folded while the carrycot still in place, which is a feature that not all prams have. This saves time and makes it more convenient to use.

Its luxurious fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tires are all the features you'd expect to find on a high-end pram and its sleek design makes it easy to handle across a variety of terrains. It's also an ideal choice for those who live in a city and must navigate narrow streets or busy sidewalks regularly. Although it's not inexpensive, the quality and versatility of this model will save you money in the long run by avoiding the need to buy an additional pushchair for toddlers. You can choose from a wide range of colors that will fit your style.
