What Makes Good Prams?

Comfort

Your baby should be comfortable when you're out with them. There are prams to make sure your baby doesn't feel any discomfort.

The prams we've chosen in this buying guide allow your baby to lie flat, which is important for newborn babies as lying flat improves oxygen levels and assists in the development of their hips and spine. They also have seats which can be transformed to an upright position once your baby is old enough to sit.

It features smooth, curvaceous lines as well as a bucket-shaped seating, which doesn't recline into a flat position, but it does have padding on the mattress and a liner. It's also a little lighter than most prams available at under 8kg but still has solid chassis and grained leather details and air-filled tyres that are puncture-proof and can be used in more rural environments.

If you're new to parenting we suggest that you consider a travel system package which includes a car seat as well as a pram that are attached to the same frame. This will make it easier to get your baby from the car to the pram without having to wake them up and is ideal for busy parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a fashionable and practical pram for travel that can be converted easily from a lie-flat 'pramette to a pushchair for toddlers that is compatible with the Graco I-Size car seat.

Safety

A pram should have a five point safety harness to keep your baby safe and free of any gaps that could trap their legs or head. The straps must be padded and easily adjustable as your child grows. Examine the buckles on your harness to make sure they're not damaged and show signs of wear. A lot of children are hospitalized each year due to pram or stroller-related injuries. The primary cause of these injuries is the result of a stroller tipping over. Even the most robust prams could fall over if you hang bags to the handles or if a wriggling child is able to get into or out of the seat without harnesses being done up.

A frequent cause of injury is falling from a pram, or stroller. If the harness of a baby is not fastened properly it can cause them to fall from the stroller and suffer head or neck injuries. This is why it is crucial to ensure that the harness buckle is always locked in place.

Some Good Prams, Mondigo.Ru, also have a canopy that can be reversible to shield your baby from the sun in any direction. This feature is helpful because you won't have to wake your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller or when you go into and out of shops. There are also other features that are useful, such as an eating tray for your toddler or child and drink holders. There's also a shopping basket underneath the seat.

It is not advisable to let a child sleep in their stroller unless they are within their reach at all times. Babies are susceptible to wriggling while sleeping, which can cause them to roll out of the pram or stroller. This could result in suffocation and strangulation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a cot and should be used only for short periods of time during the daytime.

It is necessary to disassemble the majority of prams to put them in the boot of your vehicle. This process must be mastered before you buy one. Check how easy it will be to put the parts back together.

Durability

A pram needs to be able to last through several years of wear and wear and tear. You want to make sure that your baby's pram is able to handle muddy walks, as well as multiple car trips. You want to make sure that your pram is a color or pattern that will not date easily so you don't look like you've lost style.

The best prams are constructed of top-quality materials and are designed to last. You should look for durable fabrics with sturdy tires, as well as a well-designed system of suspension. The best prams are compact and fold easily, allowing you to put them in your garage or even the boot.

All the prams on this list allow babies to lay flat, which is vital for newborns as it improves oxygen saturation levels and aids in the development of their hips and spine. A lot of them are designed to grow with your child and some featuring a carrycot, or a fully reclined seat that can be clicked off and back on the frame for when your child outgrows it.
