Buying a Pushchair Stroller

A good pushchair stroller should be easy to use. Look for one that is comfortable for sandals, has an easy parking brake to set and release and can stand up straight without needing to lift it up.

Some pushchairs are convertible to doubles and come with separate carrycots and seat units to allow you to grow with your family. Look for one with an hood that's SPF/UPF50plus and a parasol.

Comfort

The pushchair is likely to be used for long periods of time, therefore it's essential that it's comfortable for both the child and the parent. Make sure that the padding in the seat is suitable for your baby, and that the adjustable handlebars are a comfortable height for you to operate. You might also want to consider recline mechanisms - some have multiple positions while others offer an upright position that is suitable for babies.

Different manufacturers use different terms to describe their products. However prams or pushchair, as well as strollers are typically designed for older babies or toddlers. Prams typically have a more traditional carriage style and a larger frame, while a stroller tends to be smaller and lighter. Prams can be converted into stroller seats for infants, so you can use them as your child grows.

Many people choose to use a pram with their newborn baby since it comes with a large carrycot which allows the child to lay flat and in a bed-like environment. This is perfect for naps, travel and even naps. They can be set to face either the parent or the world, which is perfect for parents who want to keep an eye on their child on their travels.

If your pram does not have a lie-flat seating option then you need to purchase a carrycot separately that can be connected to the chassis of your pram. Carrycots allow your child to sleep in a upright position, which is important for lung and spinal development.

A stroller or pushchair should be easy to manoeuvre and come with an easy-to-use, sturdy frame that's well built and designed for smooth surfaces. Make sure to test out a friend's pushchair before buying to get a feel for the way it handles and if you can easily control, turn and maneuver it around tight corners. A one-handed steering system is ideal because it lets you keep hold of your shopping bags and handlebars while you are at it.

Strollers are typically designed to be lighter and more compact than prams. They can fold neatly to store and transport. They are better suited for long distances and jogging. Some come with additional features such as sunshades, cup holders, or hoods that can be adjusted. They can be an excellent choice for families with older babies and toddlers who can sit up and enjoy the ride.

Safety

A stroller must always be used with children in it and should never be left unattended. Avoid loading it with heavy bags and make sure it's not overloaded, as this could cause it to topple over, especially if you are going up or down slopes. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines to determine the maximum weight for the basket and other places you can hang things from as it is essential to keep baby safe. Choose the basket with a lid that is secure to keep toddlers or infants from getting their fingers trapped in the gap.

A pushchair (also called a pram or buggy) should always have a five-point safety harness that can be worn over the shoulder, around the waist and between the legs. A rain cover can protect your child from the elements. Straps and plastic links are also a good idea to keep toys from falling out or becoming lost.

Pick a stroller with air-filled tires rather than solid rubber tyres for an easy and comfortable ride. They work similarly to bicycle tyres. They provide a much more comfortable ride and will absorb bumps on the road without you needing to feel them too much. However, they are more prone to punctures than rubber tyres and it is a good idea to carry a puncture repair kit with you just in case.

Many parents choose to purchase an infant stroller with a reclined seating position to allow the baby to lie back and relax during walks or outings. This is because recent research has suggested that young babies who spend too long in an upright position can have breathing issues. It is recommended that you use a stroller with reclined seats once your baby has reached six months of age.

Find a stroller that has brakes that are easy to operate and will remain locked when in use. If you purchase a second-hand model, ensure that the brakes are in good working condition prior to using it with your child. Some older models might have a lever for the brake which is high up where toddlers can reach it. This is a possible risk and you must replace the brake lever with a new one, so that your child can't reach it when they are in the pushchair.

Style

If you're looking for a pushchair stroller that will be suitable for rough and uneven terrain, you should consider whether it has lockable swivel wheels. If you do not have a suspension system, you will need one. It could cost more, but it's worth it if going to be using the stroller off-road, or on vacation where the terrain could be rough.

If your baby is still tiny, a pram with a seat that is lying flat is the best choice. According to research that babies who aren't lying flat can experience breathing and stress issues when they travel for long periods of time. It is therefore advised to only travel short distances in a pushchair that doesn't lie flat with an infant.

When your baby is older and is able to sit on their own, you may opt for a pushchair stroller. They are usually less expensive than prams and can fold to fit in your car boot. These are also good for toddlers that can walk on their own.

Both types of pushchairs are offered in a variety of colours and styles that will suit your own personal style and preference. Many come with accessories that can improve your baby's journey and make it more enjoyable for both. For instance, you could purchase a matching changing bag that will ensure that your baby is comfortably snug and warm on outings. You could also add a Platinum Winter Footmuff which has a real feather and down filling that can withstand frigid winter temperatures.

Review the manufacturer's directions on how to clean and maintain a 2-in-1 3-in-1 or 4-in-1 pushchair easy fold. It will differ from brand to manufacturer, but generally you should look for a fabric with a soft wash that is easily cleaned with a damp sponge. If your pushchair is exposed to mud or dust, then it might be recommended to wash the wheels with a hosepipe or soapy water to prevent scuff marks.

Accessories

There are a variety of accessories for cheap pushchairs for sale on the market that can enhance efficiency, comfort and style. Some of these are essential for all parents, whilst others are able to be added to cater for individual needs.

A carrycot is a must-have accessory that provides newborns with a safe and secure space to rest in. It can be attached to a frame for a pushchair, and features handles for easy removal when not in use. Carrycots also have a large hoods that protect infants from the elements.

A changing bag is an additional must-have. It's designed to accommodate everything you need on a day with your baby. With straps that are convenient that can be used to keep diapers, wipes clothing, bottles, and snacks on hand.

For rainy days, a pushchair umbrella is a must-have item. Most often made of waterproof material, they are designed to fit the pushchair frame to ensure a secure and precise fit. Raincovers can also be a great option for cars, as they can be used with a variety of strollers and car seats.

As your family grows you might consider adding a second chair or a ride on board to your stroller. Similar to a skateboard, these accessories can be affixed to the lower portion of the stroller frame for older siblings to hitch to ride on. Most brands have adapters for their ride-on boards, making sure that the user experience is as easy as possible.

A footmuff is an essential accessory during winter that keeps babies warm with its soft interior and showerproof exterior. A majority of cheap pushchairs come with an accessory for feet in their accessories selection or they can be purchased separately.

Stroller gloves are perfect for colder weather. They allow parents to grasp the handlebars of the stroller without removing their gloves. To make life easier, a stroller organiser is an excellent accessory that keeps essentials such as phones, keys, bus passes and travel flasks in one place for quick access.

A luggage tag is a useful way to identify your stroller while out and out and about. It's helpful to keep your name and contact information on hand in case the pushchair is stolen or lost.
