Choosing Strollers Pushchairs

A lightweight and comfortable pushchair is essential to those who regularly take public transport or take a flight and hop off and on. Choose one that folds flat and compactly, and is machine-washable so that you can clean spilled drinks or leaky nappies stains.

We love strollers that glide effortlessly over pavements and can be mounted effortlessly. Look for car seat attachments that almost feel like they install themselves and a handlebar that can be adjusted to accommodate parents of all sizes.

Ease of Use

There are many different types of strollers pushchairs to suit every budget and lifestyle. Some are extremely light and compact, making them easy to fold and transport, while others feature a more substantial frame that's more robust for long walks and use on rough terrain. A lot of them come with a basket for your shopping items or a bag for changing clothes so you'll have everything you need. Some are made to be used in urban areas, whereas others are for travelling or for country living.

Strollers are suitable from the time of birth. They allow babies to recline flat, which is beneficial for lung and spinal development. Many strollers can be fitted with a carrycot or infant seat to create travel systems. They are suitable for infants up to toddlers. Certain models come with extra design features, such as the ability to adjust the height of the handbar for parents with different heights or a spacious basket or rain cover that will ensure your baby is dry.

Generally speaking, three-wheel pushchairs are better for city dwellers, since they're generally light and nimble, making them easy to maneuver. Four-wheeled pushchairs are more durable and perfect for families living in rural areas, or those who intend to spend most of their time in the outdoors. When you're choosing a new pushchair, read reviews from other parents that discuss the ease of using it for instance, how much it weighs and how easy it is to control. It is also important to consider the size of the base and whether your child feels stable in it, especially in the event that you plan to use the pushchair on rough terrain or off-road.

Safety

Strollers pushchairs must be safe for infants and toddlers to avoid entrapment and other injuries. Look for a wide base that isn't likely to tip and be sure to test the safety harness by placing weight on it, or hanging bags from it, to see how stable it is. Also, make sure that the leg openings aren't enough to keep the legs of a baby from sliding through and that the handles are at waist level or slightly lower to allow for a more ergonomic use. A brake that's easy to operate and locks the back wheels is an important feature. It is recommended to look for a brake that is built into the wheels instead of on the frame. This will help stop pinch points and choke dangers.

Many strollers have seats that recline to a lie-flat position which makes them suitable for infants. To control breathing and head movement it is recommended that babies lay flat for the first few months. However, some pushchairs are described as having a reclining seat, but they don't actually offer this, so check carefully.

Ensure the stroller has a five-point harness that can be adjusted (two straps that go over shoulders, two straps for the thighs, and one for the crotch), much like those in car seats. This is crucial to protect the child from falling out and being pulled out by vehicles or pedestrians.

Check that the stroller has an easy parking brake that's easy to use and locks the front wheels. This will help to stop the stroller from rolling away when you're loading or unloading your child, or while you're taking a break to rest.

Comfort

Whether you're pushing your child around or carrying a shopping cart filled with nappies and takeaway coffee, you'll want to feel comfortable when out and about. You can do this by selecting a stroller that is sturdy, large and puncture-proof tires that glide over rough terrain. It must also have a super-smooth and smooth suspension.

A pushchair that folds easily and compactly will help. It can be a hassle to fit a big pushchair into the boot of your car or climb up a flight stairs, especially if you have a toddler along with you. Consider what you will use it for, as well as the conditions. A stroller with an hood can shield your child from wind, rain and sunbeams.

The final comfort consideration is how easy the stroller is to navigate and control. Check out our reviewers' comments regarding maneuverability, taking into account things like how well strollers pirouette across various surfaces and how easy it is to push up hills.

Many pushchairs include accessories that can aid in keeping your baby warm or cool - such as fans and footmuffs. Some brands even come with their own nappy bags to make the journey with your baby easier.

For added flexibility, opt for a travel set-up - a stroller frame (called the chassis) with the seat unit which can be parent-facing or front-facing and a carrycot or bassinet. It is easy to remove and put the car seat back on the chassis without disturbing your baby. This is the perfect solution for parents who are always on the move and need to change their travel plans.

Style

While the jargon around strollers pushchairs, prams and buggies can be confusing, there are certain things that all have in common. The most important thing to remember is that they're designed to transport your child from A to B. Consider how you will use it and choose features that suit your lifestyle.

If you plan to walk on uneven surfaces, like fields that are muddy or sand-covered, you may need a stroller with all-terrain wheels that are puncture-proof. They should also feature a suspension system to make the stroller more comfortable for your child. If your baby becomes hot during long walks, you might think about a parasol that will shade them from the sun or a fan for them to stay cool.

Some pushchairs can be adjusted in their seats so you can decide if your baby is facing you to reassure them or faces the world to discover it. Others have a carrycot or seat that can flip to face you or away from you. Additionally, some offer the full lie-flat recline, which is ideal for babies. Some also have an adapter for car seats, are Isofix compatible or are 3 in 1 systems that allow you to use them right from birth.

A twin black pushchair allows you to transport two children at once. There are models with one or two independent seats, are lightweight and compact with plenty of storage space, bigger canopies and more movable wheels. A few of our test participants loved the idea of a dual-pushchair, but found some adjustments to the handlebar difficult to control with just one hand. Some adjust by rotating around a pivot point, which caused many to push their hands into the frame. Some systems that permit parents to telescopically move into or out of the frame were simpler to use for taller parents.

Stores

The amount of storage space on a stroller or pushchair could influence the choice of buying it. Look at the space under the seat as well as in the footwell and in the basket to see how much you can fit. This is a major aspect if you plan to buy additional pushchair accessories like the tray for parents or a travel changing bag.

A tray for parents makes it easier to use the stroller by providing additional storage space for snacks and essentials. It can also make the stroller bulky and difficult to fold. It is important to keep in mind that most parent trays feature shallow cup holders. This could cause items to fall off the tray when you travel or strolling.

If you intend to carry your baby from birth, you should consider buying a large-sized stroller that can accommodate bassinets. These strollers come with larger storage baskets, canopies that have full coverage and reclining seats. They are often more expensive than a compact or lightweight stroller.

The ability to maneuver is an important feature of any stroller. It determines how easy it is to steer when empty, and how well it can roll over different surfaces like grass or pavements. This quality will diminish as you and your baby grow and the weight of the stroller increases.

Some pushchairs are designed as a complete travel system, that is, they can be paired with an infant car seat, and transformed into an adult pushchair by using adapters. This can help make it easier to transition from pram to stroller as your child gets older, which is particularly helpful when you're running pushchair out of storage space at home.
