What Makes Good Prams?

A running pram (also known as a stroller or a pushchair) is the primary mode of transport for infants and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of safety, comfort and design to make walking enjoyable for the whole family.

The R for Rabbit Poppins Stylish Baby Stroller makes a great stroller for infants to three years old. The Reversible handle lets you flip the seat to face your child or the world.

Comfort

When you're out and around with a baby, you want to ensure that they're safe. The good news is that there are prams specifically designed to ensure your little one does not feel anything.

All the prams listed in this guide let your baby lay flat. This is crucial for babies as it increases oxygenation and helps support their spine and hips. They also have seats which can be transformed to a more upright position when your baby is old enough to sit up.

For a truly luxurious experience, the Venicci egg2 offers a cozy cocoon-like feel for your baby with sleek, curvaceous lines and a bucket-shape seats that does not recline to a lying-flat position, but has padding on the mattress and liner. It's also lighter than other prams, with a weight of less than 8kg. However, it is sturdy and has grained leather details and air-filled tyres which are puncture-proof.

If you want something more budget-friendly but still with the same style Minu V2 (minus carrycot) is another excellent choice. The sleek one-hand steer model isn't as light than some of the other top prams we've tested but it has an impressively large storage basket and extendable hood with UPF 50+ protection that'll keep your baby protected and shaded.

If you're the first parent of your child we recommend the travel system bundle that includes a pram as well as a car seat that can be attached to the same frame. This allows parents to transfer their baby from the car to the pram without having to awake them. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is an elegant and practical pram that can be converted easily from a 'pramette or a lie-flat 'pramette to a stroller for toddlers compatible with the Graco ISize car seats.

Safety

A pram should have a five-point safety harness to keep your baby safe and secure. It should not have any gaps to entrap their legs or head. The straps should be cushioned and easy to adjust as they grow. Check the buckles on the harness to ensure that they are not damaged and show signs of wear. Every year, a lot of children are admitted to hospitals due to injuries caused by prams and strollers. The main cause of these injuries is the result of a foldable stroller tipping over. Even the strongest prams can topple if you hook bags to the handles or if the child is wriggling and falls into or out of the seat before the harness is tightened.

Another reason for injury is falling from the stroller or pram. If a baby's harness is not fastened properly it can cause them to fall out of the stroller and suffer neck or head injuries. It is therefore important to always ensure that the buckle on the harness is securely clicked into place.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will protect your baby from sun in both directions. This is a great feature because it will prevent having to wake your child awake when you change their position in the babiie pram or when you are to and from the shops. There are also other features that are useful, like an eating tray for your child or toddler and drink holders. There's also a basket for shopping underneath the seat.

You should never let a child sleep in their pram unless you are in their sight at all times. Babies tend to wiggle while asleep and this can cause them to fall off the stroller or pram and cause strangulation or suffocation. A pram or a stroller should not be used as an alternative to a cot. It should only be used for short periods during the day.

Most prams require you to disassemble them in order to fit them into the trunk of your car so it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the process before you purchase one. Find out how easy it will be to put the pieces back together.

Durability

A pram needs to be able to endure a long time of wear. You want to make sure that your stroller can withstand slippery walks, as well as multiple car trips. Also, you want your pram to be in the form of a color or print that doesn't get outdated to avoid looking like you've gone out of fashion.

The most reliable prams are made of high-quality materials, and 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 even the boot.

All prams on this list allow babies to lie on their backs. This is important for newborns, because it allows them to develop their hips and spine and boosts oxygen levels. Some are made to adapt to your child's needs and some featuring a carrycot, or a fully reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame for when your child is no longer using it.

If you are buying a pram for the first time you should consider a travel system that includes both the carrycot as well as a car seat could be of interest. We are awestruck by the Graco Near2Me system that our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It comes with a handy feature that raises and lowers your baby at the touch of a button so you can keep eye contact and keep them close, which she claimed was important to her as the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

Another alternative is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two kids, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a pram that can be transformed from a single pushchair a double with 30 different configurations. It also comes with a sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not expensive however, you can use it with multiple children, if needed. And like our winner, the iCandy Orange 3 with its carrycot included can be used right from birth.

Style

All prams should allow newborns to lie flat as possible. This will help with their development and increase oxygen levels in the lung. Some models allow for an all-flat position by using a carrycot that can be completely reclined, while others have a seat which can recline to a horizontal position.

The Graco Near2Me is brilliant for the latter, as our parent tester Jaya discovered when she tested it on her 10-month-old daughter. She was thrilled to be able to raise or lower her baby by pressing an button, keeping him in the same position while maintaining closeness and eye contact.

It's a great stroller for those who want to nip around town with ease as the frame is a great size for manoeuvring, while the puncture-proof tyres let you move it off the road and on to rough terrain. It's also a great choice if you're planning on having another child in future because it easily converts from a single pushchair to a double or twin pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a stylish and high-end product that is both stylish and comfortable. It's ideal for babies because it comes with a lie-flat baby carrycot push chairs and prams is compatible with a car seat when you purchase it separately. It is able to be folded with the carrycot still in place It's a feature that not all prams have. This is time-saving and makes it easier to use.

Its luxe fabrics, spacious shopping basket and puncture-proof tyres are all the features you'd expect to find on a premium pram, but its sleek frame makes it easy to handle on a variety of terrains. It's also an ideal choice when you reside in a city and need to negotiate narrow streets or crowded sidewalks frequently. Although it's not inexpensive but the quality and versatility of this pram will save you money in the long run by not having to buy a separate toddler pushchair. It's available in an extensive selection of colors too, so you can pick one that fits your personal style.
