Wheels

The only down side is that they could be punctured if they are inflated too quickly using a car tyre pump. However it is usually due to someone over-inflating them, and isn't an everyday problem. This type of wheel is typically used on all-terrain and running buggies.

PU or Polyurethane wheels are filled with foam so they are lighter than rubber tyres. They do not have the same shock absorption capabilities, and can feel harsher on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more commonly found on prams and strollers than on strollers and are the least expensive option.

EVA or Ethylene Vinyl Acetate is a harder plastic material that is lighter and has some of the characteristics of rubber, but not as much. It can be used to replace rubber or PU in your pram due to its ease of maintenance and weight reduction.

The brakes should be simple to operate and should be locked when you press them. Some pushchairs also feature a mid-wheel brake for more stability and control.
