Folding

When choosing a stroller, many parents are concerned with how easy it will be to fold. The EeZeFold is unique because it comes with a single-hand fold that allows you to hold your baby while folding the buggy. This means that you do not have to manage the two. The buggy remains upright when folded, so you don't need to worry about your child falling out.

Some of the smaller folding pushchairs (like the Babyzen YOYO) are designed to fold so compactly that they can fit into the trunk of your car, so they're ideal if you're a frequent traveler or have a tiny car boot. Others are day-to-day buggies that require less of space than a standard pushchair, but have good features like a good recline and lightweight wheels. They're also typically light enough to carry by hand and so can be used by Grandma or Grandad in case they need to.

The majority of these pushchairs are aimed at older babies and toddlers as they can sit upright, but some offer a lie-flat seat and the option of adding a carrycot to make them suitable from the time of birth. Some are compatible with travel systems and allow you to attach an automobile seat to your baby with just one click.

Although they're not as tiny fold of a travel buggie, many compact pushchairs require a small amount of space when 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're also light and many come with a raincover to protect them against the elements.

The Ergobaby Pivot 360 is another really popular pushchair in this category that is a great choice for travelling as it can fold one-handed by pressing a button. It is also extremely light, making it easy to maneuver even on rough surfaces. It also comes with an excellent suspension. The seat can rotate to change between parent-facing and the world, and the hood can be extended to provide additional protection and protection from the sun.

Convertible

A convertible stroller can be modified to meet the needs of growing families. It can begin as a single stroller, transform into a double stroller for siblings and even a triple stroller through the addition of an additional seat or ride-along boards. The UppaBaby Vista V2 is our top choice. It's a versatile single to double stroller that is able to be transformed to accommodate a car seat or bassinet for newborns as well as two toddler seats or even a third child using adapters.

Convertible strollers must have adjustable features, including height and reclining settings. They should also have large, easy to grip handles that are comfortable for moms, dads or grandmas to push. These strollers are more stable than traditional twin pushchairs as they are made up of more components.

The Larktale crossover stroller/wagon is the first of its kind that combines a fully-featured single stroller with a pull wagon, eliminating the need for parents to invest in separate products. It can be converted quickly and easily into a single or double stroller with no tools or conversion kits. It also offers the flexibility of seating with its second seat and pull handle when used in wagon mode. The Larktale is more bulky than our other top convertibles however it offers excellent maneuverability and is able to easily climb the hills. Its biggest flaw is the lack of storage space underneath the seat. Click here for more information.

Safety

A good pushchair will have numerous safety features, such as five-point harnesses for the baby. The harness should be able to fit over shoulders and around the waist as well as between the legs. It is essential that the harness does not fall off, and that there aren't any places that children's fingers might get stuck.

Select the brake that best suits your lifestyle. The most popular brake is a foot brake. It's great when you have to stop frequently, like when you go shopping. Hand brakes are found on a variety of jogger style pushchairs, and is more appropriate when you will be able to change momentum frequently, like when you go for an exercise. Some cheap pushchairs come with an active handbrake that can activate by pressing a pedal at the bottom of your foot. This is a good option for parents who will be stopping and starting more frequently as it makes it easier to keep your balance and apply pressure on the wheels.

Verify that the front wheel of the pushchair can be locked. This is particularly beneficial for those who live in areas with uneven terrain or steep slopes. A front wheel that locks can help to prevent the pushchair from moving away in a hurry or there is a lot of baggage in the back.

Even though it may seem like a small consideration, you should also consider the weight of the stroller. Even a light pushchair can become surprisingly heavy when it is loaded with a growing child and shopping bags. Make sure you know the weight of the item and think about whether you'd be capable of lifting it into your car's boot and then up a flight of stairs with a toddler in your arms and juggling a cup of coffee from a takeaway.

Buggy, pram, or pushchairs are designed for babies that can sit up. They are usually used after the age of six months. They have seats that can be oriented both towards you for bonding and away from you to explore the world. Many pushchairs feature adjustable handles, seat positions, and other accessories.

Comfort

Many parents love the convenience features of pushchairs, and there are plenty to choose from. Certain models are better suited for rough terrain or city streets than others and the brake type is also a factor to consider. For instance, a hand brake is ideal for easy daily use, whereas the hand brake that is active on pushchairs with joggers can be more responsive and easier to use when on adventures.

One of the most important features of comfort is whether or not the pushchair has a full lie flat position for newborns. Babies must be in a flat position to develop their spine, and it's worth choosing a pushchair with this feature right from the start. This will allow your baby a peaceful nap or a rest, allowing the ideal choice for more extended outdoor adventures and a healthier, happier child.

It's important to choose a pushchair that's compatible with the infant car seat you've chosen. This will make it simple to move your child from the car to the pushchair. It will also keep him calm and minimize the amount of fuss.

Some pushchairs feature an adaptor for car seats that lets you easily attach your car seat to the frame. The seat can be used from birth to toddlerhood and save time and money. Many brands also offer a prams travel system system bundle that includes infant car seat, adaptors, and a footmuff all in one purchase.

A good suspension system is also important particularly for the front wheels. This can make a huge difference when driving through rough terrain or city streets, allowing you get over bumps and uneven surfaces without difficulty while keeping your baby comfortable.

You may also want to think about other practical comfort features, like the capacity of a large basket (or separate bag) with reclining handles as well as an adjustable seat and a hood that is ventilated. All of these features will allow you navigate your way through the country or town, and ensure your child gets the best travel stroller sleep possible for the longest nap possible.
