What Makes Good Prams?

A pram, also known as a pushchair, stroller or Sling, is the most popular form of transport for babies and toddlers. A great pram combines safety, comfort and design that makes walking fun for all family members.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a fantastic pram for newborns to 3-year-old kids. The Reversible handle lets you flip the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

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

All the prams in this guide allow your baby lie flat. This is essential for newborns as it improves oxygenation and strengthens their spine and hips. They also have a seat that can be changed to a more upright position when your baby is old enough to sit.

For a really high-end experience, the Venicci egg2 offers a cozy cocoon feel for your newborn with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seating that does not recline to a lying-flat position but does have a padded liner and mattress. It's also a little lighter than the majority of prams on the market at less than 8kg, but it has an extremely sturdy chassis and grained leather detailing, plus air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof and can take on more rural settings.

If you want something less expensive but with a similar style, the Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is a good option. The stylish, one-hand steer model isn't as lightweight as the other prams pushchairs prams we've tested but it does have a large storage basket, as well as an extendable hood with UPF 50+ protection that'll keep your baby safe and shaded.

If you are a first time parent we suggest that you look into a travel system that includes a car seat as well as a pram pushchair that can be attached to the same frame. This will make it easier to get your baby out of the car into the pram without waking them and is ideal for busy parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and functional pram that can be converted easily from a 'pramette,' or lie-flat 'pramette, into a stroller that is toddler-friendly compatible with the Graco ISize car seats.

Safety

A pram must have a five point safety harness to ensure your baby is safe and free of any gaps that could trap their legs or head. The straps should be cushioned and easy to adjust as they grow. Examine the buckles on your harness to make sure they're not cracked and have signs of wear. Many children are admitted to hospitals each year because of injuries from strollers or prams. Tipping over is the main reason for these injuries. Even the most sturdy prams could tip over when you strap your bags onto the handles or if the child is wriggling or squirming and falls out or in the seat before the harness has been tightened.

A common cause of injury is falling off a pram or stroller. If a child's harness is not secured properly, it could cause them to fall out of the stroller, causing neck or head injuries. This is why it is vital to make sure that the harness buckle is always clicked into place.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will shield your baby from sun in any direction. This feature is beneficial since you don't need to wake up your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller or when you enter and out of shops. There are also other features that can be useful, for example an eating tray for your toddler or child and drink holders. You can also find a basket for shopping underneath the seat.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without having them within reach. Babies are known to wiggle when asleep and this can cause them to slide off the stroller or pram and can lead to strangulation or suffocation. A pram or stroller is not a substitute for a cot and should only be used for brief periods during the daytime.

It is necessary to take apart most prams in order to fit them into the boot of your vehicle. This procedure is something you should know before you buy one. Also check how it is simple to put the different parts back together and click them in place.

Durability

A pram pushchair needs to be durable enough to endure many years of wear and tear. This includes having to deal with the mud-filled walks and many car journeys, which is why you want to be sure your choice is able to fulfill the tasks you require it to. You want to make sure that your stroller is in the right color or design that won't fade easily so that you don't appear like you've fallen out of fashion.

The best prams are constructed from high-quality materials and are designed to last. Look for durable materials as well as sturdy tires and an efficient suspension system. The best prams are lightweight and fold easily so that you can put them in your garage or the boot of your car.

All the prams on this list allow babies to lay on their backs. This is essential for infants as it helps them develop their spine and hips and improves oxygenation levels. Many of these prams are designed to grow along with your child. Some include a carrycot, or a reclined seat that can be easily removed and put back on when your child outgrows them.

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

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

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lie as flat as possible. This will help with their development and boost oxygen levels in the lung. Some models allow for an entirely flat position using a carrycot that can be fully reclinable, while others have a seat that reclines to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me works great for this as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tried it on her 10-month-old child. She loved the ability to raise or lower her baby with a push of an button, keeping him in the same position while maintaining the eye contact and closeness.

The frame is perfect for nipping around town, and the puncture-proof tires allow you to take it off road or over rough terrain. It's also a great choice if you're planning on having a second child in the future since it can easily be converted from a single pram to a twin or double compact pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that looks and feels impressive. It's ideal for babies since it comes with a carrycot that can lie flat and it's compatible with car seats if purchased separately. You can even fold it with the carrycot in place - something that not all prams can do and is an easy and time-saving feature.

Its luxe fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tyres are the kinds of things you'd expect on a pram of the highest quality and its sleek design makes it easy to maneuver on a variety of terrains. This is an excellent choice when you live in a city and have to navigate narrow streets or crowded walkways on a regular basis. Although it's not inexpensive however, the durability and quality of this pram mean that it can save you money over the long term by not having to buy a separate compact pushchair for toddlers. You can choose from a wide range of colors to match your style.
