What to Look For in Prams, Pushchairs and Buggys

Whether you're looking for a pushchair, pram or a buggy there are a lot of things to think about. Think about how much you can afford to spend, whether you want an e-bike that is compact or more spacious and how easy to clean it.

Look for models with a reclining seat that can adjust to multiple positions and a newborn carrycot or bassinet. Be sure that they are flat because this is essential for the development of the spine of your baby.

Safety

It is important to follow safety guidelines when you are out with your child in a pram or pushchair. This will ensure that your child is safe and comfortable. Make sure you know the stroller's or pushchair's weight limits to prevent overloaded vehicles as it could cause damage or cause instability. Avoid placing blankets or pillows in the pram, as this could be dangerous for your child, especially when they suffer an accident. Don't let older children climb onto the double stroller or triple pram as this could pose a danger.

It's also recommended to look for a pushchair that has extra padding, especially in the area of the headrest. This will help to keep your child safe from hitting objects while out and about. A parent facing mode is a great option as it allows it to be quick and easy to monitor your baby and keep them content and at ease.

Some pushchairs and prams include an attachment for a bassinet that is ideal for newborns to lie flat in, cocooned and comfortable. Some prams and pushchairs include a carrycot that can be removed once your baby is able to sit. Some prams will also offer seats that can be changed between these two types as your child develops.

Many pushchairs and prams can fold down into small dimensions when they are not in use, making them easy to store and carry in your car's boot or on public transport. It is worth assessing how compact they are when folded. This could be a big difference when you need to squeeze them in small spaces or climb up and down the stairs.

If you plan to take your pushchair or pram into rougher terrain, such as fields, parks or even on beaches, it is recommended to find a model with off-road wheels because they are more suitable for these types of environments. Make sure that the wheels have air in them as they will be able to move easily over rough terrain and will not puncture.

A sunshade or parasol that attaches directly to the frame of your pushchair can provide shade and guard your child from overheating during sunny days. You can purchase them separately or as part of an accessory set for your pushchair, with a variety of styles and colours to choose from.

Comfort

A good pram or pushchair should be comfortable for both your baby and you to push. A softly padded seat liner, adjustable settings to allow your newborn to lay flat or sit up slightly (good for reflux sufferers) and a large sun canopy are all helpful. Look for suspension that smooths the ride and a brake system that is responsive to stop quickly if needed.

It's vital that your pushchair is able to accommodate this position for the first couple of weeks. Many frames include an infant carrycot that can convert to a reclining seat once your child is old enough. This lets you use a stroller as well as pram in the same frame.

You'll also need to consider your needs when choosing a pram, like whether it's simple to maneuver and what type of storage space you need. It's worth visiting a store where you can test drive different pushchairs or prams to test how they feel and fold. Also, you should look into any accessories that you may want, like a footmuff or seat liner, to keep your baby cool during the summer and warm in winter.

Lastly, you'll want to think about the overall look of your stroller - does it fit your lifestyle and personality? You will be using your pushchair for a number of years, so make sure you pick the right color or design that you won't regret.

Practicality

It's not uncommon to hear the terms buggy, pram, travel system and pushchair tossed around, but it is important to choose one which best travel pushchair suits your requirements and lifestyle. Find models that fold into smaller dimensions because this can be helpful when you're on public transport as well as in your car's boot or storage space at home. If you choose to purchase a pram or a travel stroller system that has a separate baby seat, make sure that it snaps on easily to the chassis and can be removed without waking your baby (especially in the case of sleep).

Many prams come with a spacious storage basket underneath that will keep your bags, shopping and nappies at hand. They also typically have swivel wheels which make them easy to manoeuvre and steer in narrow shop aisles, or to turn around in busy areas such as parks and beaches. If you plan to use it in the countryside, you might want a model with large all-terrain tyres which can cope with muddy walks and rough terrain.

A stroller or pushchair is lighter than a traditional pram and the seat can be adjusted into multiple positions. This is great for babies who can sit up, or for newborns. They typically come with a huge canopy which will offer your child or toddler protection from the sun, and certain models could be suitable to use in the rain.

Consider how the model weighs and if you can comfortably lift it out and in of your car boot or up the stairs to your home (with or without your child inside!) They'll get heavier as time passes. It's worth investing in a machine-washable cover for easy cleaning of spilled liquids or nappy messes. It's recommended to try out any prams or pushchairs you're contemplating buying, so that you can see how they feel and move and also how easy they are to fold and carry. You may also want to determine if the handlebars are comfortable to hold.

Cleaning

Cleaning your pushchair on a regular basis will lower the risk of mildew or mould. It is essential to wipe down every component of your fabric as soon they get dirty and give them an extensive wash every two weeks. Regularly applying a fabric freshener or deodoriser can help to keep odours at bay and help prevent the build-up of grime which can cause mould spores to grow.

Before you begin cleaning your pushchair it is a good idea to clear away any toys and to take off any padding or covers that can be removed. This will make it easier to access and clean those hard to reach places such as the canopy, hood or support for the seat. The next step is to select an area that is well-ventilated to work in and then lay down a sheet or tarp to protect the floor and make clean-up as simple as it can be. Also, it's an ideal idea to use a vacuum cleaner with a nozzle attachment that is flexible to loosen any food or dirt that might be tucked away in nooks and crannies.

If you have an infant stroller with removable fabric sections, begin by reviewing the care instructions of the manufacturer and washing them according to the recommendations (either in the washing machine or by hand). In general, it's safe to make use of a warm solution of water and mild soap (or mild detergent) on the majority of fabrics used in prams. It is recommended to test the fabric's colorfastness on an area of a tiny size prior to using any cleaning product. Some chemicals can damage or bleach delicate fabrics.

Add a small amount to the wash to get rid of the stubborn marks and stains. It is a potent stain remover which can lift many types odours including those caused by urine or milk. It can also help remove any soap residues or detergent. Once you're finished, rinse the fabric thoroughly to get rid of all traces of soap and hang it up to dry. It is best to do this outdoors because sunlight acts as both natural softener for fabric and a gentle disinfectant.
