Seat

A pram is likely to be one of the most frequently used pieces of baby equipment that you purchase so it's important that it's comfortable for your young one. Find models with comfortable seat padding, adjustable handlebar height and recline function that allows you to get your child asleep. It's also worth ensuring that the pushchair can be set in either 'parent facing' (or rear-facing) or 'world facing', when your child is older and would like to look around and see what's happening around them.

It is important to think about the overall dimensions of a pram when selecting, as you do not want it to take up too much space in your car trunk or your living area. Select a model that can fold easily and compact when folded to ensure it will fit. Check how easy it is to fold and then read reviews (like those on MadeForMums) to get a true sense of how simple or difficult it is to manoeuvre fold, store and store.

A quality pram should be able to lay flat when folded, making sure that your baby gets a completely supported sleep during the first six months, which is vital for their development. Be sure that the pram you're looking at can do this and that it can be used with a car seat, if needed.

Wheels

The wheels of a pushchair are what allow it to move and give your child the mobility they need. There are three common wheel types: foam, rubber, and EVA (a harder plastic type). Each type has pros and cons depending on what you plan to use your pushchair travel system for.

Rubber wheels are the most commonly used and offer excellent grip on all surfaces. The only down side is that they can be punctured if inflated too quickly using the pump of a car tyre. This isn't a typical problem, and is usually caused by over-inflating the wheels. This wheel type is often used on all-terrain and running buggies.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are filled with foam, which makes them lighter than rubber tires. They also don't offer the same shock absorption capabilities and may feel harsh on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more commonly found on strollers strollers than in prams and are the most affordable option.

EVA or Ethylene Vinyl Acetate is a stronger plastic that is lightweight and has some properties of rubber but not as much. It can be used instead of PU or rubber to keep it in good condition and also to reduce the weight of your pram.

It is important to have reliable brakes in your stroller. This will safeguard you, your child and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis and can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars or pressing down with your foot. The brakes must be simple to operate and should lock as soon as you press them. Some pushchairs also feature an in-wheel brake to provide stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is a user-friendly portable cot that can be affixed to the frame of any pushchair. It is a fantastic option for infants from six months old since they require a flat position and be able to breathe, which is crucial for their lung and spinal development. A pram with a carrycot is an excellent option for parents who are limited in space and have a tiny car boot, or who take public transport a lot.

Some prams come with a built-in carrying cot that folds into the frame. This allows you to easily switch between carriage and seat modes. This is a great option for families with a small car boot or those who have to take public transport frequently as it can save time and effort.

Storage

There are a number of options for pram storage depending on your budget and the space you have available. If you have space, a shed is the ideal option to shield your pram from damage resulting from the elements and keep it out the way when it is not in use. It's also a good option when you live in an area with frequent snow or rain.

A shed is usually built from wood or metal and has doors that allow for easy access. It could also come with the security of a lock as well as other features. Another popular option is a garage, which will shield you from the elements and also be near your vehicle, if that's what you want to use it for.

If you don't have garage space, you could keep the pram in your home's closet. It will be hidden and won't be visible when you enter the house or the nursery. It might be difficult to reach if are hosting guests.

You'll need to regularly clean your pushchair if you want to maintain it. This will ensure that it looks great and free of stains and mildew. To clean a hood, start by vacuuming it using an attachment that is small or by washing it in warm soapy water. Next you can tackle any stains using a fabric brush or a gentle solution for sterilising. It's important to remember to dry the fabric completely outside to stop mould and mildew from spreading. You can also purchase a cleaner that will help remove staining that is difficult to remove and leave your pushchair looking like new.
