This innovative travel system allows you to "future secure" by adding an appropriate carrycot and car seat. It can be folded effortlessly and quickly with one hand, and is able to stand when folded.

Seat

It's likely that your baby will be using the pram sets often and it's important to ensure it's comfortable. Find models with comfortable cushioned seats, an adjustable handlebar height and a recline function that allows you to put your child to sleep. Make sure the pushchair comes with an 'parent facing (or rear facing) or 'world-facing' feature if your child wants to observe more of what's going on around them.

The Graco Near2Me comes with an interesting feature that allows parents to keep their baby close and maintain eye contact. Jaya, our parent tester said this is an excellent option for infants and newborns.

When selecting a pram it is important to consider the overall size. You don't want to to worry about it taking up too much room in your home or vehicle. Pick a model that is able to be folded up easily and compact when folded to ensure it can fit. Check how easy it is to fold it and read reviews (like those on MadeForMums) to get a true idea of how easy or difficult it is to manoeuvre, fold and store.

A high-quality pram should be able to lie completely flat when folded, ensuring that your baby has a fully supported lie down throughout the first six months, which is essential for their development. Make sure the pram you are considering is able to do this, and that it can be used with a car seat should it be required.

Wheels

The wheels are what move the pram and provide your child a safe ride. There are three standard wheel types: foam, rubber, and EVA (a more durable plastic type). Each wheel type has pros and cons depending on how you intend to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are the most commonly used, and they provide excellent grip on all surfaces. The only down side is that they may be punctured if they are inflated too quickly with the pump of a car tyre. This is not a frequent problem and is usually caused by who has inflated the wheels too much. This type of wheel is usually used on all-terrain buggies as well as buggies that run.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are stuffed with foam, so they are lighter than rubber tires. They also don't offer the same shock absorbing ability and may feel hard on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more commonly found on prams than strollers, and are the cheapest option.

EVA or Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a polymer material that shares some of the characteristics of rubber and is also lighter. It can be used in lieu of PU or rubber to keep it in good condition and also to reduce the weight of your pram.

The presence of reliable and strong brakes on your toddler stroller is an important feature and will protect your baby, you and other pedestrians. The majority of pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated by pressing a button or lever on the handlebars, or by pressing down with your feet. The brakes should be easy to operate and should be locked when you press them. Some pushchairs also have an in-wheel brake to provide stability and control.

Carrycot

The carrycot is a simple-to-use portable cot that is able to be attached to the frame of any pushchair. It's perfect for babies and infants from 6 months to 6 years of age, as they must lay flat to develop their spine and lungs. A pram with a carrycot is the perfect choice for parents who have little space, a small boot or who use public transport often.

Some prams have a built-in carrying cot that can fold into the frame. This allows you to easily change between carriage and seat modes. This is a great choice for families with a small car boot or who need to take public transport often as it can save time and effort. The iCandy YOYO2 is a good example of this and has scored well with MFM home testers, and also winning Gold in our previous MadeForMums awards. It's a great option for parents who are on a budget as it's affordable and has a luxurious look and feel. It's also sturdy, lightweight, and compact when folded.

Mountain Buggy Twin Plus, an elegant pushchair suitable for double pram or single use that can be used from birth. an infant carrycot is the ideal choice. This pram comes with lay-flat carrycots, fabric sling seats and a baby cooon to provide the ideal sleeping solution for twins.

It's also a smooth, nippy and light-steering driver, which is ideal for urban environments. You can easily navigate through busy streets and pavements on the move. It's also extremely easy to install and comes with plenty of accessories such as rain cover, footmuff, and hood.

Canopy

A pram canopy will protect your child from the elements and provide a comfortable place for them to rest. It can also prevent sunburns and heat stroke by blocking the harsh rays of the sun. Some models have a peekaboo or mesh back section that can be unzipped to keep an eye on the snoozer's tiny eyes.

In winter, a hood is a great way to protect your baby's delicate skin from the elements and rain. Certain models come with a rain cover that can be easily popped over the canopy of the pram, and secured with poppers. If you prefer, you can buy a separate umbrella which attaches to the pram via magnets and is easy to fold away when not in use.

The pushchair or pram for many years to come, so choosing the right one is an important choice. As your child grows, you will need to ensure that they are comfortable and safe during every journey. A high-quality pram/pushchair can support your baby's spine and keep them comfortable on long walks or bumpy rides.

It's worth noting that pushchairs tend to be more targeted towards infants and newborns, as they often come with a bassinet or carrycot that allows you to lie them flat, whereas pushchairs are generally more versatile and can convert to a seat as your baby gets older.

Storage

There are many options for storage for prams based on your budget and the space available. A shed is a great option if you have space, as it will protect the pram from weather damage and keep it out of the way when it's not in use. It's also a great option for those who reside in an area that experiences frequent snow or rain.

A shed is made of metal or wood, and it comes with a door that allows easy access. It could also come with the security of a lock as well as other features. Another option is a garage, which will shield you from the elements and also be near your vehicle if this is what you use.

If you don't have a garage or shed, you can put your pram in a closet within your home. It will be in a safe place and you won't notice it when you walk into the house or the nursery. However, it might be difficult to access if have guests coming over.

You'll need to regularly clean your pushchair if you want to maintain it. This will ensure it looks great and is free of stains and mildew. To clean a hood, start by vacuuming it using a small attachment or rinsing it in cool soapy water. You can then use a mild cleaning agent or fabric brush to remove any stain. Be sure to dry the fabric on the outside to prevent mildew and mould from spreading. You can also buy cleaning products that will remove stubborn stains and make your pushchair look like new again.
