While some prams include a car seat or carrycot some require you to purchase the items separately. One exception is this fashionable and robust ‘travel system’ by Baby Jogger that saves you time and money by bringing all the components you need in one set. It comes with a carrycot that is flat and lie-flat as well as a pushchair seat, and an Graco Isofix base – all you need to start.

The best prams for newborns are those that allow them to lay flat, which increases oxygen saturation and supports a healthy hip and spine. The prams in this buying guide all have a fully-reclinable seat that can be used from birth. Some of them can convert into a double so that you can accommodate twins or siblings.

Durability

A pram is a major investment for parents who are about to have their first child. It’s one of the items that will be used a lot. It’s crucial to select one that is able to handle everything from shiny floors to bumpy cobblestones. Our testers tried the most recent products from the top brands on city streets, country trails, and even off-roading.

A well-designed pram will provide comfort to your baby. This is a secure harness and a soft cover for the seat. It must also be able to recline in various positions and have a good-sized shopping basket so you can carry your groceries, your change bag and a few essentials for your child. And, of course, it should be easy to fold, so you can store it in your car and take a bus ride easily.

Simple to use

A pram must be simple to use in order to keep you and your child happy on your walks. For this reason, it’s essential to choose a stroller that folds easily and is easy to get out of the car and onto public transport. It should also be comfortable for you and your child.

A good pram will be able to fully recline into a lie-flat position for infants (this is crucial because your baby’s lungs won’t be able to handle with an upright seat). If you plan to travel frequently, you should look for a set of travel accessories that includes a footmuff, as well as a car seat. This will help you save money and time as opposed to purchasing each piece of equipment separately.

You should also consider whether you need a pram compatible with capsules or car seats. This will allow you to transport your child to and from airports as well as in the winter. If you don’t plan to use these extra components, you may want to consider a pram with a bassinet that you can use from the time of birth.

Lastly, consider the shopping basket’s size. Can you carry a few bags of groceries in it? The ideal basket is a large and spacious one. Make sure your pram doesn’t weigh too much to lift into the car boot or onto public transport.
