Pick a model that comes with a carrycot, or a combination of the car seat and carriercot, which is ideal for infants. Some models have an reversible design, which means you can choose whether your baby faces you or the the world.

Safety

The pushchair, sometimes referred to as a stroller or buggy is among the most commonly used baby products. Safety is the primary consideration when selecting the right pushchair. The first thing you should look for is a harness with five points. This system locks the child in the seat by securing five points - two across shoulders, two around hips and between legs and two in the middle. This system helps prevent the child from tipping out of the seat when it falls over or is driving up or down a steep kerb.

For newborns carrying a carrycot or car seats / prams & carrycots is essential. They must be able to lie flat. This protects their spine and allows them to breathe completely. This is essential as it decreases the chance of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Newborn babies should never be able to travel for long distances in the pushchair that does not have this feature, even if it has an adjustable seat.

It is also recommended to purchase a pushchair suitable from the time of birth. The pushchair should be capable of being used with a carrycot that can lay flat, or an infant car seat or pram. It should also include the seat unit that is fully reversible so that the baby can look at either the parent or the world.

Finally, the wheels of the cabin pushchair must be sturdy and have an adequate suspension to reduce bumps and vibrations as well having brake pedals that is easy to reach. Many pushchairs have pneumatic tyres, which absorb shocks better than conventional tyres. They are also able to run on uneven terrain.

Additional accessories like a raincover, shopping baskets or changing bags for prams can be useful for everyday use, especially when running errands with baby in the stroller. Many pushchairs come with a hood which can be pulled over the baby's face to shield it from the sun or wind. Certain hoods can be adjusted to match the conditions.

Comfort

You'll want a baby pushchair that is comfortable for both the baby and the parent. This can mean padded seats, easy to manoeuvre and sturdy enough for rough terrain. It is also important to think about other features like storage options and protection against weather. If you intend to use the stroller to run, or off-road adventures, you will need an infant stroller with bigger wheels. This will provide your child the best comfort even on the most sloping terrain.

The best pushchair for a newborn will be a pram or a travel system that has an cot with a carry-on, allowing your baby to sleep in their normal lying flat position, which is vital for the development of a healthy spine and lung. Some pushchairs labeled "suitable for babies from birth" require that your child sit up on their own. Be sure to verify this before making an purchase.

A bassinet is a great option to create a cot-like environment where your child can relax while being secure and safe in the pushchair. They are generally more expensive than a travel system. However, if your child is happy in the seat, it might be worth the price.

Many pushchairs allow you to "face the seat" towards you to provide reassurance or bonding. You can also turn away to explore the world. They are often called parent-facing or world-facing pushchairs. Some will have a single-to-double pushchair option, too, meaning they can be modified to accommodate two children without the requirement for a separate double pushchair frame.

You'll need a parasol for your pushchair on hot days to shield your baby from sunlight and prevent overheating. Look for it in pushchair bundles or on its own. In colder weather, you may wish to include a footmuff that will keep your baby warm and cozy. These are available in different designs, and the majority can be washed in the washing machine.

Style

When shopping for a new push chair it is important to look at the finer details, particularly because it will be among the most frequently used baby products.

Some models come with adjustable seat padding, a extendable SPF canopy and a footmuff to keep warm during colder months.

It is recommended to use a pushchair or pram with a carrycot or a travel system. Some pushchairs have an accompanying seat unit or carrycot which can fully recline. They are suitable for babies from birth. It is essential to confirm that this feature is included because some descriptions only state a reclining seat without defining if it is a lie-flat option.

The majority of cheap pushchairs for sale allow the option of facing your child's face or a world facing seat unit so that you can choose to have your child face you to bond with you or away from you so they can explore the world around them. Some even have both options at the same time!

Budget

It's essential to spend time researching your options and adhere to your budget. It's important to remember that the pram will stay there for a lengthy time and it's also the most frequently used item so you want to make sure you purchase one that fits your needs and is comfortable for both you and your child.

You should consider purchasing a travel system that includes a carrycot and seat. This is the safest method to transport a newborn since it guarantees that they lie flat. This is ideal for securing their spine development and opening their airways. Newborns should always be transported in a lying position until they reach six months old.

Some pushchairs can be used as early as birth, and also have seats that fully recline to an upright position. This is crucial since it protects the newborn's spine as it develops and allows them to rest comfortably during long trips. It's important to note that not all pushchairs marked 'lie-flat" actually have a fully flat position. You should check this prior to buying.

Look for a model with an ample basket to hold all the baby's necessities and other items. The basket should be simple to access and you will be able to get your shopping in without difficulty or having to remove your baby from the carrycot.

Another consideration is the wheels, which vary from model to model. Some models have wheels that can be locked, swivelled, or fixed to help you maneuver the pushchair. Some have larger wheels that can be more stable over rough terrain or have PU tyres designed to resist puncture.

Also, you should consider the size of the handlebar and if it's adjustable to suit your height. You should also make sure that the pushchair folds down to fit in your car's boot, or on public transport. Some models, like the Joie Vinca, have a one-handed fold which was highly reviewed by our MFM home testers and earned it an award of Gold Award in previous MadeForMums awards.
