What to Look For in Prams, Pushchairs and Buggys

Whether you're looking for a pushchair, pram or buggy, there are lots of considerations to make. Consider how much money you'll need to spend, if you want something smaller or more spacious, and how easy the buggy will be to clean.

Find models with a reclining seat that can be adjusted to multiple positions, and the option of a carrycot or bassinet to newborns. Be sure that they are flat as this is vital for the spine development of your baby.

Do not allow older children to climb onto the pram or stroller as this could pose a danger.

Many prams and pushchairs are designed to fold into small dimensions when they are not in use, making them easier to store and carry in your car's boot or on public transport. It's worth checking how compact they are when folded as this can be an issue when you need to squeeze them in tight spaces or go up and down stairs.

If you plan on taking your pram or pushchair to rougher terrain, such as parks, fields or even on beaches, it is a good idea to find an off-road model since they are more suitable for these types of environments.

When selecting a pushchair, you'll have to think about your needs, like how it's easy to move and how much storage space you require. It is recommended to visit a store where you can try out different prams or pushchairs to determine how they feel and fold.

A pushchair or stroller is lighter than a pram and offers the convenience of a seat that can be adjustable to various positions. This is ideal for newborns and babies who can sit up. They typically have a wide canopy that provides your baby or toddler with protection from the sun, and some models may also be suitable for use in the rain.

Cleaning

The quickest method to decrease the risk of mould and mildew is to clean your pushchair regularly. This should include wiping down any fabric components when they become dirty and giving them a thorough wash every two weeks or more often. Using a deodoriser and/or fabric freshener regularly can also help reduce odours and prevent the build-up of grime, which can cause the growth of mould spores, as well as an unhygienic environment for your baby.

It's a great idea to remove any padding or covers prior to cleaning your pushchair. This will make it easier for you to clean the hard-to-reach places, such as the canopy or hood.

Utilize a vacuum cleaner with an adjustable nozzle to take out any food particles or dirt that might have gotten stuck in the nooks and crevices.

If your pushchair comes with removable fabric sections, make sure you read the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and wash them according to the directions (either by hand or in a washing machine). In other cases, it is safe to make use of warm water and mild soap (or a mild detergent) on the majority of fabrics used in prams. It is recommended to test the fabric's colourfastness on a small area before using any cleaning product. Some chemicals can damage or bleach delicate fabrics.

Add a small amount to the wash to remove stubborn stains and marks. This is an effective stain remover and will lift all kinds of odours for example, those triggered by milk or urine. It also assists in removing any residues of soap or detergent. After you're done, rinse the fabric thoroughly to get rid of any soap residue, and hang it to dry. Do this outside, since sunlight is a natural conditioner and disinfectant.
