What to Look For in Push Chairs and Prams

The world of prams and push chairs can seem confusing. Prams come with a flat seat that is specifically designed to carry newborns and infants.

Prams can also come with a bassinet or carrycot for infants. Some can be converted into an infant pushchair once the baby is older.

If you plan on using public transportation or have to fold your pushchair often, opt for a lightweight and compact travel pram pushchair.

Comfort

Alongside bottles and nappies, your pushchair is likely be one of the most frequently used baby items you own. As such, it's important to ensure that your child is safe on every trip by choosing one with plenty of padding and an upholstered seat that can be adjusted for the height of your child.

It's worth noting that a lot of prams and buggies also come with a fitted pram blanket that helps to keep your child warm. These blankets are easy to wash and come in a variety of colors and designs.

A pram is suitable for babies between six and six months old. age, when they are still at the point that they must lay flat. A carrycot or bassinet is attached to the frame. Most prams will offer the option of either 'parent facing' and 'world facing', meaning you can choose whether to have your baby face you to bond or let them explore the sights and sounds around them. Some prams convert into pushchairs, such as the iCandy Peach 7 – a premium single-to-double pram and pushchair pushchair which can be used from birth with a carrycot up to 25kg (15kg with elevators).

The most important thing to keep in mind is that infants and toddlers should not be in any pushchair that is not able to recline completely to a flat position. This is because being in a crouching position can affect their breathing, since it causes them inhale more air than normal and could lead to respiratory problems in the longer term.

A pushchair is a chair on wheels that folds typically, to a small size, and is generally designed toward toddlers and older infants until around three years old. They're typically made of more durable materials than a pram and you can typically find models that let you switch the direction of the seat so that your child can either face towards you to provide reassurance, or away from you so they can explore the world around them.

Safety

The safety of your child in a pram or pushchair is essential. Only ever put your baby in a pushchair or pram that is made to his size and age. This will ensure that they feel safe and secure, and also prevent accidents. If you are buying a secondhand pushchair or stroller, it is important to conduct a visual safety check. This will ensure it's in good condition and not damaged in a way that could be harmful to your child.

When you are choosing a pushchair or pram make sure you choose one with a safety harness which has quick and easy clips and connections. Verify that the buckles aren't loose and that the straps fit snugly around the waist of your child. Also, look for a broad base, as this will provide greater stability than models that have narrow bases.

Avoid overloading your pushchair or pram with things. This could cause it to tip over and your baby might be thrown out. Don't place anything in the storage basket that could fall out and hurt your baby. This includes toys, drinks and food items.

Follow the directions given by the manufacturer when cleaning your stroller or pram. If you are cleaning the fabric or the hood of your pram, be sure to dry it outside thoroughly. This will stop mildew or mould from developing.

It's a great idea to wash the removable footmuff of your pushchair or pram prior to when you use it again in winter. This can be done by removing the fabric, washing it in cool water using soap and letting it air dry outside. It's also a good idea to brush any dirt or mud off of the wheels and axles.

Experts recommend that infants lie flat as soon as possible in a pushchair or pram. This will aid their development and lessen back problems later on in life.

Manufacturers and retailers have a duty under the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 to offer products that are safe to use in normal or reasonably foreseeable use. This applies to both new and second-hand prams and strollers.

Style

Some parents are looking for the most efficient set-up of wheels they can get, but many parents also want a pram that is as stylish as their baby. Fortunately, there are plenty of prams and pushchairs that are high-quality available that combine quality engineering with attractive designs that are as eye-catching as they are practical.

When selecting the right pushchair or pram the first thing you need to think about is the seat padding. A pushchair that is simple to clean is essential for children, as they are often messy. This is especially important in the event that you plan to use your pushchair for long walks through rough terrain or over dirt, gravel and cobbles. Choose a stroller with removable seats and recline mechanisms that can be washed by machine. Check that the fabric is also breathable to help keep your baby dry and comfortable.

Another thing to consider is the direction your baby is facing in their pushchair. Most pushchairs with a "from-birth" feature allow you to change the seat between facing parents (facing the parent to calm and bond) or to the world, so that your child can explore the world. Some prams also have this option, however it's not required for all models.

Combination prams, also referred to as 3-in-1 prams, are a very popular choice for families as they can fit an infant basket and a pushchair seat on the same frame. They are usually designed to be used starting at birth and are suitable for infants as young as six months old.

A best travel pram system is similar to a stroller combination in that it permits you to attach a car seat to the frame, with adaptors. They are perfect for babies and toddlers from birth to three years old and are less expensive than purchasing separate products.

Twin Pram prams or pushchairs can be a ideal choice for twins or siblings of the same age who both require transport in a safe and comfortable manner. These are available in many designs and can be fitted either with a single car seat or a double one.

Stores

A pram or pushchair should not only be safe and comfortable for your child, but have ample storage space for all of the essentials. Look for models that have a large basket to accommodate all of your baby's supplies including spare clothes, changing equipment, bottles of water and snacks. Some models include a separate compartment for the parent or child which is ideal to store your personal items. If you're looking for a pushchair with additional storage consider a convertible model that has multiple configurations. Extra space is important particularly if you intend to take your child on long walks or to be away from home.

Maneuvrability is a further aspect to think about. Select swivel wheels to navigate narrow passageways easily. Also look for brakes that are locked with a quick stopping power. If you're looking at an ultra-lightweight model, make sure it has the right suspension system and foldable dimensions to facilitate storage and transport. If you're looking for something more sturdy for off-road use, select one with sturdy all-terrain wheels that are able to be able to withstand rougher terrain than pavements.

The main distinction between a pram and pushchair is that a pushchair offers the option of a lying-flat sleep position for newborns, while the pushchair is better designed for older children and toddlers who are able to sit up on their own. Some prams can be transformed to a pushchair by taking out the bassinet and replacing it with a seat, and other models like the Bababing Raffi complete bundle are all-in-one prams that can transform into a car seat or carrycot.

Whatever kind of pushchair or pram you decide to purchase, make sure to read reviews online and seek recommendations from your family and friends. If you can, test drive a few models prior to making your decision to get an impression of how they feel and how they fold and how heavy they are. Consider a convertible car, that can be used by one or two children. This will save you money since you won't need to purchase an entirely new set of wheels each time your child grows.
