Pushchairs - The Swiss Army Knife of Baby Transport

A pushchair is also known as a buggy, stroller or pram with car seat. It's like the Swiss Army knife of baby transport. From navigating busy streets to navigating rough terrain, these baby-chariots have been built to conquer all types of terrain.

A quality pushchair provides security and comfort for your baby, convenience for you and the chance to spend time together and explore the world together. Find out what to look for when choosing one.

Folding

One of the most important features that a lot of parents are looking for when they choose a pushchair is how easy it folds. A standout is the EeZeFold that has an amazing one-handed fold that lets you hold your baby while folding the buggy. This means that you don't have to switch between the two. The buggy remains upright when folded, meaning you don't have to be concerned about your child slipping out.

Some of the smaller folding pushchairs (like the Babyzen YOYO) are designed to fold down so small that they can be tucked away in the boot of your car, which means they're ideal for frequent traveller or have a small car boot. Some are small buggies designed for use in everyday life that have smaller footprints than standard pushchair, but provide decent features like a comfortable recline or light wheels. These buggies are usually lightweight enough to be carried with hand, so Grandma or Grandad can use them in the event of need.

The majority of these pushchairs are designed at older babies and toddlers because they can sit up, but some have a lie-flat chair and the option of adding a carrycot that makes them suitable for babies from birth. Some are travel pushchair system compatible and allow you to attach an infant car seat to your infant with one click.

While they don't have the tiny fold of a travel buggie, many compact pushchairs still take up very little space when they're folded with the seat on which is why they're ideal for those short on storage space in their home or live in an apartment. They are also lightweight, and they often have a rain cover to protect them against the elements.

The Ergobaby Pivot 360 is another very popular pushchair in this category that is a great option for travel because it folds by simply pressing the button. It is also extremely lightweight, making it easy for you to handle even on rough surfaces. It also comes with an excellent suspension. The seat can be turned to face either the outside world or the parent, and the hood can also be extended to offer additional sun protection.

Convertible

A convertible stroller transforms its shape to meet the demands of families growing. It could be one stroller that converts into a double stroller newborn in order to accommodate more siblings, or a triple stroller by adding an additional seat. Our top pick is the UppaBaby Vista V2, is a multi-functional stroller that converts to accommodate a bassinet or car seat for infants as well as one or two toddler seats and a third child with the use of adapters.

Apart from changing shape to accommodate different configurations convertible strollers must also offer adjustable features such as height and reclining. They should also come with large, easy-to-grip handles that make it easy for dad, mom or grandma to push. Also, since these types of strollers usually contain more components than traditional pushchairs, they should be more stable and less likely to tip over when carrying a number of children or loads of equipment.

The Larktale crossover stroller/wagon is the first of its kind that combines a full-featured single stroller with an incline wagon, removing the necessity for parents to invest in separate products. It converts quickly and easily into one stroller or a double stroller, with no need for tools or conversion kits. The second seat and pull handle give ample seating space when used as an actual wagon. Although the Larktale is a bit bulkier than the other top convertibles, it is extremely maneuverable and can maneuver well over hills. The biggest issue is the limited storage space under the seat.

Safety

A good pushchair should have a number of safety features including the five-point harness for baby. The harness should fit over the shoulders and around the waist, and also between the legs. It is essential that the harness does not become loose, and there aren't any areas where a child's fingers could be stuck.

There are a number of different brakes for pushchairs, so pick the one that best suits your needs. A foot brake is the most popular and ideal for those who are likely to stop frequently such as when shopping. Hand brakes are found on many jogger style pushchairs. It is more beneficial in situations where you'll frequently change your momentum, for instance, when going for running. Some pushchairs have an active hand brake that operates by pressing a pedal using your foot. This is a good choice for parents who are stopping and starting their pushchairs more often. It makes it easier to keep your balance while still applying the pressure to the wheels.

Check if the front wheel of the pushchair is able to be locked. This is particularly useful for those who live in areas with steep slopes or uneven terrain. A wheel that locks on the front can stop the pushchair from slipping away if you are in a rush or have lots of luggage in the rear.

While it might seem like an unimportant thing to consider however, the weight of the pushchair is something you need to be aware of. Even a light pushchair can become surprisingly heavy when loaded with a growing infant and shopping bags. Make sure you know the weight of the item and consider whether you would be in a position to lift it into the car boot and then up a flight of stairs while balancing a toddler and juggling a coffee from a takeaway.

Buggy, pram, or pushchairs are designed for infants who can sit up. They are usually used after 6 months. The seat can be set towards you or away from you depending on whether you want your child to be close to you or explore the world. Many pushchairs have adjustable seats, handlebars and other accessories.

Comfort

Many parents appreciate the comfort features of pushchairs - and there are many to pick from. Some are better suited to rough terrain or city streets than others and the type of brake is another factor to consider. For instance, a foot brake is ideal for easy, everyday use, whereas an active hand brake found on jogger style pushchairs can be more responsive and simpler to operate when out on adventures.

The ability of your pushchair travel system to allow newborns to lie flat is among its most crucial features. It is crucial to select the pushchair with this feature from the moment of birth. This will let your baby develop their spine into a flat position. This will give your baby a comfortable nap or rest, making the ideal choice for more extended outdoor adventures and a happier, healthier child.

If you're planning on using a car seat along with your pushchair, it's important to get a model that is compatible with your infant car seat. This will make it easier for you to transfer your child from the car to the pushchair. It will also help keep him calm and minimize the amount of fuss.

Some pushchairs feature a smart car seat adaptor that allows you to fix your chosen car seat to the frame. This means that you can use the same seat from birth to toddlerhood, reducing costs and hassle. Many brands offer a bundle that includes a car seat, a carrycot, and adaptors, along with a footmuff, all in one purchase.

Another important aspect of comfort is a great suspension - particularly on the front wheels. This can really make the difference when driving on rough terrain or city roads that allow you to navigate bumps and uneven surfaces with ease while keeping your baby comfortable.

You may also want to consider other practical features, like an ample basket (or separate bag) with reclined handles as well as an adjustable seat and an air-conditioned hood. The combination of these features will assist you to navigate your way through the country or town and ensure that your child has the best possible sleep for the longest nap possible.
