What Makes Good Prams?

A pram set, also referred to as a stroller, pushchair or Sling, is the most popular method of transport for infants and toddlers. A good pram combines safety, comfort and style to make walking enjoyable for all the family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller makes a great stroller for infants to three years old. Its reversible handle allows you to tilt the seat so that your child can face either you or the world around them.

Comfort

Your baby should be at ease when you're out with them. There are prams that ensure that your baby isn't shivering anything.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide allow your baby to lay flat, which is important for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen levels and assists in the development of their hips and spine. They also have seats that can be changed to an upright position once your baby is old enough to sit up.

For a really high-end feel this Venicci egg2 offers a cozy cocoon feel for your newborn with smooth, curved lines and a bucket-shape seat that doesn't recline into a lie-flat position, but has a padded mattress and liner. It's also a little lighter than the majority of prams available at less than 8kg but has solid chassis and grained leather accents and air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof and able to handle more rugged terrains.

If you're looking for something a bit less expensive but with the same design, the Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is another excellent choice. The stylish one-hand steer model isn't as lightweight than some of the other prams we've tested but it does have a large storage basket, as well as an the ability to extend the hood, which comes with UPF 50+ protection to keep your baby safe and shaded.

If you're the first parent of your child, we'd recommend considering a travel system bundle which includes a pram and car seat that attach to the same frame. This allows parents to transfer their child from the car to the pram without having to awake them. 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,' into a toddler-friendly foldable stroller compatible with the Graco iSize car seat.

Safety

The pram should come with five-point safety harnesses that will ensure your baby's safety. It must also be free of gaps between their head and legs that can get trapped. The straps should be padded and easily adjustable as your child grows. Check the buckles on the harness to ensure they are not cracked and show signs of wear. A lot of children are hospitalized each year because of pram or stroller-related injuries. The main reason for these injuries is the result of a stroller tipping over. Even the most sturdy prams can topple if you hook your bags onto the handles or if the child is wriggling and gets in or out of the seat before the harness is tightened.

Another reason for injury is falling off the pram or stroller. If a baby is not properly secured the pram, they could fall out of the pram and suffer head or neck injuries. This is why it is crucial to ensure that the buckle of the harness is always secured.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will shield your baby from sun in both directions. This is a useful feature because it will prevent having to wake your child awake while you change their position in the pram or when you are to and from the shops. There are other features that can be useful, like an eating tray for your child or toddler and drink holders. You can also find an extra shopping basket under the seat.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram if you are not within sight. Babies are susceptible to wriggling while sleeping and could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This can lead to strangulation and suffocation. A pram or stroller is not a substitute for a cot and should only be used for short periods of time during the day.

The majority of prams require you to disassemble them in order to fit them into the trunk of your car so it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the process before purchasing one. Find out how easy it will be to put the sections back together.

Durability

A pram must be able to last through many years of wear and tear. This includes having to deal with the mud-filled walks and numerous car journeys, so you need to ensure that your choice is able to do the job you need it to. You should ensure that your pram is in a colour or print that will not date easily so you don't look as if you've slipped out of style.

The best prams are made of high-quality materials and have been designed to last. So, look for durable fabrics, sturdy wheels, and a well-designed suspension system. The best prams will also feature a compact fold so they can be easily stored in your garage or the boot when not when not in use.

All prams on this list allow the baby to lie flat. This is crucial 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 grow along with your child's. Some have a carrycot or a fully-reclined chair that can be snapped on and off when your child is outgrowing them.

If you are purchasing a babiie pram for the first time it is recommended to consider a system that includes both a carrycot and a car seat may be a good idea. Our test-driver for parents Jaya was a fan of the Graco Near2Me System she used with her 10-month-old son. It comes with a clever feature that raises and lowers your baby at the touch of a button so you can keep your eyes on them and keep them close which she said was really important to her as the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

Another option 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 stroller that can be converted from a single pushchair into double, with 30 different configurations. It also features sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap but you could use it for more than one child, if you need to and, as with our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the included carrycot.

Style

Newborns must lay flat as much as possible to aid development and improve oxygen saturation in their lungs. Therefore, it is essential that all prams permit this. Some models provide a flat position with a fully-reclinable carrycot, while others have seats that recline to an upright position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for this as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her child who was 10 months old. She loved the ability to raise or lower her child by pressing an button, keeping him in view, while still maintaining closeness and eye contact.

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

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that looks and feels luxurious. It's suitable for newborns because it comes with a lie-flat baby carrycot and is compatible with car seats, if you buy it separately. It can be folded using the carrycot as a stand which is something not all prams can do which is why it's an easy and time-saving feature.

The pram's luxurious fabric as well as the spacious basket and puncture-proof tires are all features you would expect to see on a premium model, but the sleek frame makes it easy for you to maneuver on different terrains. It's also a great option when you reside in a city and need to negotiate narrow streets or overcrowded sidewalks regularly. The pram isn't cheap, but its versatility and quality can save you money over time by avoiding the need for a separate stroller for toddlers. You can pick from a range of colors to suit your preferences.
