What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also referred to as a stroller, pushchair or a sling, is the primary form of transport for babies and toddlers. A quality pram blends safety, comfort and design to make walking enjoyable for all the family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller makes a great stroller for infants to 3 years old. The reversible handle lets you to tilt the seat so your child can face either you or the world around them.

Comfort

When you're out and around with a baby, you want to ensure that they're safe. There are prams that will make sure your baby doesn't feel any discomfort.

All prams featured in this guide allow your baby lay flat. This is important for newborns since it improves oxygenation and strengthens their hips and spine. The seats can also be adjusted to a more upright position when your baby is capable of sitting up.

Venicci egg2 is a high-end pram that has a cocoon-like feel for your baby. It features smooth, curving lines as well as a bucket-shaped seating, which does not recline into an upright position however, it does come with padding on the mattress and a liner. It's also lighter than most prams, with a weight of less than 8kg. However, it still is sturdy and has grained leather details and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.

The Minu V2 is a great choice when you're looking for a model with a similar look but at a lower price. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as light as other prams but it does come with a large storage basket. It also has an extended hood that provides UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby safe and shaded.

If you're a first-time parent, we'd recommend considering the travel system bundle that includes a pram as well as a car seat that are attached to the same frame. This makes it much easier for parents to transfer their baby from their car to the pram without having to awake them. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and useful pram for travel that can be converted easily from a'pramette' that lies flat to a pushchair for toddlers that is compatible with the Graco I-Size 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 cushioned and easy to adjust as they expand. You should also check the harness buckles to ensure they aren't damaged or showing signs of wear and tear. A lot of children are hospitalized every year due to injuries from strollers or prams. Tipping over is the main cause of these injuries. Even the most robust prams could tip over if you hook bags on the handles, or if a wriggling child is able to get into or out of the seat without harnesses being properly secured.

A common cause of injury is falling off a pram or stroller. If a baby isn't properly secured, they could fall out of the stroller and sustain neck or head injuries. Therefore, it is important to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into place.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will shield your baby from the sun in any direction. This feature is useful because you won't have to wake your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller or when you enter stores and out. Other handy features include a tray for snacks and drink holders for your infant or toddler, a basket for shopping under the seat, and the handlebar locks into position when you are not using it.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without being within sight. Babies tend to wiggle while asleep, which can cause them to roll off the pram or stroller and could result in suffocation or strangulation. A pram or stroller is not an alternative to a crib and should be used only for short periods during the day.

The majority of prams require you take them apart in order to put them in the car's boot therefore it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the process before you buy one. Consider how easy it would be to put the parts back together.

Durability

A pram should be able to stand up to the wear and tear of many years. You should ensure that your baby's pram is able to handle muddy walks, as well as multiple car trips. It is also important for your pram to come in the form of a color or print that isn't prone to fading quickly to avoid looking like you've fallen out of style.

The most reliable prams are constructed from high-quality materials and are designed to last. You should look for durable fabrics, sturdy tires, and an efficient suspension system. The top prams have a compact fold, so you can store them easily in your garage or in the boot when not being used.

All the prams on this list allow a baby to lay flat, which is vital for newborns because it improves oxygen saturation levels and supports the development of their hips and spine. A lot of them are designed to adapt to your child's needs with some having a carrycot or a fully reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame when your child is no longer using it.

If you're looking to purchase a brand new pram for the first time, you may also be looking for a travel system prams system which is a bundle that includes a lie-flat carrycot and car seat. Our parent tester Jaya loved the Graco Near2Me System that she used with her 10-month old son. It is a revolutionary feature that allows you to raise and lower your child with the touch of one button. This lets you keep eye contact with the baby and keep them in close proximity.

The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our tester Jess Bird tried with her two children Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pushchair that can be converted from a single pushchair 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 needed and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth with the carrycot included.

Style

Newborns should lay flat as often as possible to aid development and increase the oxygen level in their lungs. Therefore, it is essential that all prams permit this. Some models create a completely flat surface with a fully-reclinable carrycots, while others have a seat that reclines to an upright position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for both, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her 10-month-old child. She loved that she could raise or lower her child with a push of a button to keep him in the same position while maintaining closeness and eye contact.

It's a great choice for those who want to travel around town easily as the frame is a good size for manoeuvring, while the puncture-proof tyres allow you to move it off the road and on to rough terrain. It's a great option for those who plan to have a child in the future because it can easily be transformed from a single pushchair into a twin or double.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish, high-end option that looks and feels impressive. It is suitable for newborns as it includes a carrycot which can lie flat and it's compatible with car seats when purchased separately. It is able to be folded with the carrycot still in place This is an option that not all prams provide. This is time-saving and makes it more convenient to use.

The pram's luxurious fabrics, spacious basket, and puncture-proof tires are things you'd expect to find on a high-end model, but the sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver around various terrains. This is an excellent choice when you live in a city and must navigate narrow streets or congested pathways frequently. It's not cheap, but its versatility and high-end quality can save you money over time by avoiding the need for a separate stroller for toddlers. It's available in an extensive variety of colors, too, so you can pick one that fits your personal style.
