Strollers
There's a wide selection of strollers available that are designed to meet different needs. Some strollers are made to accommodate multiple babies (twins, or children with a tiny age difference), while others are specifically designed for singletons. The rest are designed to accommodate children aged from birth to four. Many of them have safety guidelines that must be adhered to, for example - any child seat or carrycot has to be fastened securely and can't be more than 20cm away from the edge of the frame.
Three-wheel pushchairs are easier to maneuver because they only have one front wheel. This makes them ideal for narrow streets or aisles in stores where space is limited. If you're planning to use your stroller in a variety of different environments, consider an all-terrain pushchair. Built with tough tyres they can take on bumps and rough terrain more easily than the standard stroller. Some even have suspension to help make the ride more comfortable for your toddler or baby.
A few all-terrain buggies can also be designed to be used as jogging buggies. This is a great option for parents who wish to be active and take their child along on a brisk stroll or jog. These pushchairs typically come with larger frames and tyres than a standard stroller, and they can include features such as a handbrake or adjustable handlebar.
If you're planning to jog with your stroller, you should consider having a test drive in order to see how you feel about the experience and how it's easy to manage. It's also important to determine what kind of tyres you prefer, whether they're foam-filled or air-filled. Air-filled tyres are typically more durable, but they are also prone to punctures and you'll need an emergency repair kit.

Joggers
If you're a running enthusiast (or buggy runner) or want to be a jogger, you'll require a pushchair with three wheels that is specifically designed for running. These pushchairs have larger wheels than traditional strollers, and a special suspension to withstand bumps and uneven sidewalks. They are also heavier and more bulkier than traditional strollers, making them unsuitable for everyday use unless you intend to go on an occasional run.

Some models have adjustable or heavy-duty suspensions to give you a smoother ride on rough terrain.
Depending on the age of your child, you might be able to make the transition from a carrycot infant car seat to one of these strollers without too much difficulty. It's best to consult your pediatrician prior to purchasing a jogging stroller particularly if your doctor suggests waiting until your child is 6 months old. old.
You can also buy a jogger, and then include an adapter for carseats that is compatible with it. For instance the phil&teds Sport buggy can be transformed into a 2-in-1 travel set with an infant car seat so you can take baby for walks or runs from day one.

All-terrain
If you love to wander off the beaten path or live in a rural location or would like to run with your child, an all-terrain pushchair may be the best option for you. The best all-terrain prams will come with large, robust wheels that can withstand bumpy ground and great suspension to make your journey comfortable for your baby.
These are usually larger than standard pushchairs, and are often difficult to fit into the trunk of your car. They are also more expensive than other pushchairs so keep this in mind when looking around.
Look for a model with a height-adjustable handlebar that can be used when you and your companion are different heights. You should also consider whether you'd prefer a wrist strap, which minimises the chance of it rolling off on sloping ground or slipping over hills. Some models are made with an incline front wheel fixed, which is easier to control if you want to use it for jogging. Some models come with a swivel wheel that can be locked to help you maneuver on uneven surfaces.
The type of tyre used is also important. Many all-terrain pushchairs use air-filled tyres that provide smooth rides but could puncture easily. Some come with an inflated tyre that is filled with gel or foam, which are less prone to puncture, but can add weight to the pushchair.
A high-quality pushchair that is all-terrain will have a decent sized basket, which will be handy for carrying baby's groceries. Some will have a convenient compact fold that is one-hand to help you put it away when not in use. It is common to find a raincover and footmuff included as well.

Folding
Some of the most popular pushchairs fold. They are easy to store in your home, and can easily be inserted into the boot of your vehicle. This is a great option if your car boot is small, or if you plan on travelling a lot with your family.
There are many different types of folds, so pick one that fits your lifestyle and preferences. The latest models of buggy feature an auto-fold, which can be folded in a matter of one button. This frees your hands to carry a baby bags or other children, and is perfect for parents with back problems or recovering from C-sections.
Some models fold more conventionally with the seat on. This means they are more bulky and may not fit as tightly in your car or boot. Certain models require two hands or more to fold. This could pose a problem for parents who want to hold their child while folding.
It's important to check that the pushchair will be suitable for the terrain on which you intend to use it. For instance, if you're going to be on a lot of cobblestones or gravel tracks, make sure the wheels are made of air-filled tyres for the most comfortable ride for your baby.
If you'll use your pushchair mostly on paved roads and pavements then most three-wheelers have moulded wheels which will give your child an easy ride. If you're planning to take your child off-road or on rough terrain, select a model with removable mudguards and/or an front wheel that has quick-release. This will make your pushchair look its best.
