Comfort
You want your baby to be at ease when you're out with them. There are prams to ensure that your baby isn't shivering any sensations.
All the prams in this guide allow your baby lay flat. This is crucial for babies as it increases oxygenation and helps support their hips and spine. They also come with seats that can be changed to an upright position once your baby is old enough to sit up.

This makes it easier to get your baby out of the car to the pram without waking them and is perfect for busy parents who are always on the move. The Bugaboo Dragonfly travel system is a stylish and practical pram that can be converted easily from a 'pramette,' or lie-flat 'pramette, into a stroller that is toddler-friendly compatible with the Graco ISize car seats.
Safety
A pram should be equipped with a five point safety harness to keep your baby secure and should not allow any gaps to entrap their heads or legs. The straps must be cushioned and easy to adjust as they grow. Also, you should check the harness buckles to ensure they aren't damaged or showing signs of wear and tear. Each year, many children are hospitalised because of injuries caused by prams or strollers. Tipping over is the most common cause of these injuries. Even the strongest prams can tip over if you hook bags to the handles or if the child is wriggling and gets out or in the seat before the harness is tightened.
Another common cause of injury is falling from the pram double or stroller. If a baby isn't securely secured in the pram, they could fall out of the pram and suffer neck or head injuries. It is therefore essential to ensure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the proper position.
Some good prams also have an adjustable canopy that can shield your baby from the sun in either direction. This feature is helpful since you don't need to wake your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller, or when you go into and out of shops. There are also other features that could be useful, for example an eating tray for your child or toddler and drink holders. You can also find a shopping basket underneath the seat.
You should never leave a child sleeping in their pram unless you are in their sight at all times. Babies are susceptible to wiggle during sleep, which could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This can lead to suffocation and strangulation. A pram or a stroller should not be used as an alternative to the cot. It should only be used for short periods of time during the day.
It is necessary to take apart most prams in order to put them in the boot of your vehicle. This procedure is something you should know before you purchase a pram. Also check how it is simple to put the different sections back together and then click to put them back together.
Durability
A pram should be durable enough to withstand many years of wear and wear and tear. This includes having to deal with walking in the rain and numerous car journeys, so you want to be sure your choice will perform the task you want it to. Also, you want your pram to come in an image or color that won't date quickly to avoid looking like you've fallen out of fashion.
The best prams are made with high-quality materials. They are designed to last, so you should look for strong and durable materials, robust wheels and a well-designed suspension system. The best prams are compact and fold easily, allowing you to store them in your garage or boot.
All sale prams on this list allow your baby to lie down on their backs. This is crucial for infants because it aids in the development of their spine and hips and improves oxygenation levels. Many are designed to grow with your child with some having a carrycot or fully-reclined seat that can be moved off and on the frame for when your child is no longer using it.
