Seat
It is likely that your child will use the pram a lot and it's important that it is comfortable. Find models with comfortable cushioned seats, an adjustable handlebar height, and recline feature that allows you to get your child asleep. Make sure that the pushchair features a 'parent facing (or rear facing)' or 'world-facing' setting for children who want to observe more of what's happening around them.
A great feature of the Near2Me from Graco is its ability to raise your child to you by pressing the button, allowing parents to keep eye contact with their baby and keep them close. This is a fantastic option for babies and newborns and was loved by our parent tester Jaya as being a lovely way to make your child feel loved and loved.
When selecting a pram you should consider the overall size. You don't want to have to worry about it taking up too much room in your home or vehicle. Select a model that can be folded easily and compact when folded to ensure it will fit. You can check whether it is easy or difficult is by reading reviews (like the ones on MadeForMums).
A good quality pram should be able to lay flat when folded. This will ensure that your baby gets a comfortable and safe sleep during the first six months, which is vital for their development. Make sure the pram you are considering is able to do this, and also that it is compatible with a car-seat in the event that it is required.
Wheels
The wheels move the pram, and offer your child a safe ride. There are three common wheel types: rubber, foam and EVA (harder plastic type). Each has its pros and cons depending on the purpose you intend to use your pushchair.
Rubber wheels are most common and provide great grip on all surfaces. The only downside is that they could be punctured if inflated too quickly by a car tyre pump. However it is usually due to someone over inflating the tires and isn't a common issue. This type of wheel is typically used on all-terrain and running pram buggies.
PU or Polyurethane wheels are foam filled which makes them lighter than rubber tyres. They also don't offer the same shock absorbing ability and may feel hard on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more often seen on prams than strollers and are usually the cheapest cost option.
EVA, or Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a material that shares some of the characteristics of rubber and is also lighter. It can be used in place of PU or rubber for low maintenance and to reduce the overall weight of your pram.
A strong and reliable brake system on your pram is a must and will safeguard you, your baby and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs come with brake pedals located at the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a button or lever on the handlebars or pushing down with your foot. The brakes must be easy to use and should be locked immediately after pressing them. Some pushchairs feature brakes on the middle wheel for extra stability and control.
Carrycot
The carrycot is an easy-to-use portable cot that can be attached to the chassis of any pushchair. It's a great choice for newborns up to around six months old since they need to lie flat and be able to breathe, which is crucial for their spinal and lung development. A carrycot-equipped pram is a great choice for parents with little space, a small boot or who use public transport often.
Some prams have an integrated carrycot that folds up into the frame of the pushchair so you can easily swap between seat and carriage mode. This is a great option for families with a small car boot or who need to take public transport often since it will save time and effort. The iCandy YOYO2 is a good example of this and has scored highly with MFM home testers, and also winning Gold in our previous MadeForMums awards. It's a great option for parents who are on a tight budget, since it's reasonably priced, yet is luxurious and looks. It's also sturdy and lightweight. It's also compact when folded.
If you're looking for a luxury single to double pushchair that's suitable from birth and can be used with a carrycot, the Mountain Buggy twin pram Plus is the perfect choice. It includes a lay-flat carrycot plus fabric slings, fabric seats and a baby cooon for the ultimate sleeping solution for your twins.
It's also a soft, nippy and light-steering rider, which is perfect for urban environments. You can easily navigate through busy streets and pavements while on the move. It's also extremely easy to use and comes with a variety of accessories, including rain cover, a footmuff and hood.
Canopy
A pram canopy will protect your child from the elements while providing a comfortable place for them to rest. It also helps prevent sunburns and heatstroke by blocking the harsh rays of the sun. Some models have an open window, or you can unzip a back mesh section to monitor your little snoozer and not disturb them.
A hood can be particularly useful in winter too as it protects your baby's sensitive skin from cold winds and rain. Certain models come with rain covers that can be easily popped over the canopy of the pram and secured using poppers. You can also buy a separate umbrella that attaches via magnets to the pram and is easy-to-fold away when not in usage.
If you decide to go with a pram or pushchair, choosing the best model is a major choice which you will be using frequently for many years to come. As your baby grows and develops, you'll want to ensure that they are safe and comfortable throughout every journey. A high-quality pram double or pushchair will be able to provide a gentle spine support and keep them from becoming tired when they take long rides or long walks.
It's worth noting that pushchairs tend to be more orientated towards infants and newborns in that they usually come with a bassinet, or carrycot to enable you to lay them flat, whereas pushchairs are generally more versatile and can convert into a seat as your baby gets older.

Storage
There are a variety of options for storage for prams based on your budget and the space you have available. If you have the space, a shed is a great option to protect your pram from damage resulting from the elements and keep it out of the way when not in use. This is a great option in areas that experience frequent rain or snow.
A shed is typically made out of metal or wood and has a door that allows easy access. It may also have locks or other security features. Another option that is popular is a garage that will protect you from the elements and will be close to your vehicle if that's what you want to use it for.
If you do not have a garage or shed, you can store your pram in a closet in your home. It will be kept away from view and will not require you to look at it when you enter your home or nursery. However, it might be difficult to access if you have guests visiting.
You'll need to clean your pushchair if want to keep it maintained. This will ensure that it looks fantastic and is free from stains and mildew. To clean a hood, start by vacuuming it using an attachment that is small or by washing it in cool soapy water. Next you can clean any stains with a fabric brush or a gentle solution for sterilising. Be sure to dry the fabric on the outside to prevent mould and mildew from spreading. You can also purchase an item to clean up staining that is difficult to remove making your pushchair look like new.
