What to Look For in Prams, Pushchairs and Buggys

Whether you're looking for a pushchair sale, pram or buggy, there are lots of factors to consider. Think about the amount you're able to spend, whether you want a compact buggy or something more spacious and how easy it will be to clean.

Make sure they are flat as this is important for your baby's developing spine.

Safety

When you are out and about with your child in a stroller or pram, it's important that you adhere to safety guidelines so that your little one is comfortable and secure. Make sure you know the stroller's or pushchair's carriage weight limits to avoid overloading, as this can damage or cause instability. Avoid putting blankets or pillows in the pram since they can pose danger for your baby especially if there is an accident. Don't let older children use the stroller or triple pram as this is a potential hazard.

Choose a stroller that has extra padding particularly in the headrest area to safeguard your child from bumping into objects while out and about. A child-facing mode is a great option as it makes it easy and quick to monitor your child and ensure that they are at ease and happy.

Some pushchairs and prams have bassinets that allow newborns to lie flat in a cocoon of peace. Others may have a carrycot that is removed once your baby is old enough to sit up. Some prams also come with seats that can be switched between the two modes as your baby develops.

Many pushchairs and prams are designed to 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's worth checking how compact stroller they are when folded. This could be a big difference when you have to squeeze them in tight spaces or up and down the stairs.

If you're planning on taking your pram or pushchair to rougher terrain, such as fields, parks, or even on beaches, it is a good idea to find models with off-road wheels because they are more suitable for these kinds of environments. Check to see if the wheels have air in them as this will allow them to move easily across rough terrain without having to puncture.

For sunny days, a parasol that attaches to the frame of the pushchair or a sunshade is a great way to protect your baby from overheating, and also provide shade. These can be purchased separately or as an accessory set for your pushchair. There are many styles and colours available.

Comfort

A quality pram should be comfortable to push for both you and your baby. Softly padded seat liners, adjustable settings that allow your baby to lie on their backs flat or rise slightly to ease reflux and an expansive sun canopy are all helpful. Look for suspension that makes the ride smooth and a receptive brake system so you can stop quickly if needed.

It's vital that your pushchair is suitable for this position for the first couple of weeks. Many frames come with a newborn carrycot which can be changed to the reclining seat when your little one is old enough, meaning you can use both a pram and a pushchair within the same frame.

When choosing a pushchair you'll need to think about your requirements, including how it's easy to move and how much storage space you'll need. It is recommended to visit a store where you can test-drive various pushchairs or prams for sale to test how they feel and fold. You should also check out any accessories that you may need, such as a footmuff or seat liner, to keep your baby cool in summer and warm in the winter.

In the end, you'll need to think about the overall design of your stroller - does it fit your lifestyle and style? You'll be using your pushchair for many years, so pick a colour or print that you will not regret.

Practicality

The terms pram, pushchair buggy, pram and travel system get thrown around a lot but it's crucial to pick one that meets your needs and fits your lifestyle. Find models that fold down to smaller sizes as this will help when you're on public transport, in your car's storage or boot space at home. If you choose to purchase a pram or travel pushchair system that has a separate baby seat, ensure that it snaps easily onto the chassis and is able to be removed without disturbing your baby (especially in the case of sleep).

Many prams come with an ample storage basket beneath which helps keep your bags, shopping and nappies within reach. The wheels are typically swivel, making it easy to maneuver and steer through narrow aisles in stores or in areas that are crowded, like beaches and parks. If you intend to use it in the countryside, you might want an all-terrain model with big tyres which can cope with rough terrain and muddy paths.

A pushchair or stroller is lighter than a traditional pram and the seat can be adjusted into multiple positions. This is perfect for infants who are able to sit up or newborns. A large canopy will protect your child from the sun. Some models are suitable for rain.

Think about how the model weighs and whether you are able to lift it in and out of your car's storage area or up the stairs to your home (with or without your child inside!) They'll become heavier over time. It could be worth spending a little extra for a machine washable cover that makes cleaning up spills or leaks from nappy nappy easy. It's a good idea to test drive any prams or pushchairs that you're contemplating buying, so that you can see how they feel and behave and how easy they fold and transport. It is also a good idea to see whether the handlebars are comfortable to you.

Cleaning

The quickest way to reduce the risk of mould and mildew is to wash your pushchair frequently. It is crucial to clean every component of your fabric as soon they begin to get dirty, and give them an extensive wash every two weeks. Using a deodoriser and/or fabric freshener regularly can also help keep odours at bay and prevent the build-up of grime, which can cause the growth of mould spores as well as an unhygienic environment for your child.

Before you begin cleaning your pushchair it is a good idea to get rid of any toys and to remove any covers or padding that you can remove. This will make it easier for you to clean those difficult-to-access areas, like the canopy or hood. The next step is to select an area that is well-ventilated to work in and lay down sheets or tarps to protect the floor and make clean-up as easy as you can. Use a vacuum with an nozzle that is flexible to get rid of any food or debris that may have gotten caught in the nooks and crevices.

If you own a pushchair with removable fabric parts, then begin by checking the manufacturer's care instructions and washing them as recommended (either in the washing machine or by hand). In other cases, it is safe to make use of a warm solution of water and mild soap (or a mild detergent) on the majority of fabrics used in pushchairs. It is best to test the fabric's colourfastness on an area of a tiny size prior to using any cleaning product. Certain chemicals can harm or bleach delicate fabrics.

This is a powerful stain remover which can lift many types odours including ones caused by urine or milk. It can also help lift any residues of soap or detergent. When you're done, wash the fabric thoroughly to get rid of all traces of soap and hang it up to dry. Do this outside as sunlight is a natural conditioner and disinfectant.
