Pushchairs - Your Complete Guide to Choosing the Perfect Pram

Welcome to your ultimate guide to pushchairs, prams, and strollers. Whether you're a first-time parent navigating the world of baby gear or an experienced parent looking to upgrade, choosing the right pushchair is one of the most important decisions you'll make. From versatile travel systems and all-terrain 3-wheel pushchairs to lightweight strollers and luxurious prams, we'll help you find the perfect mobility solution for your family's lifestyle.

Understanding Different Types of Pushchairs

The pushchair market offers a wide variety of options, each designed for specific needs and lifestyles. Here's a breakdown of the main types:

Travel Systems

Travel systems are the ultimate all-in-one solution, combining a pushchair chassis with a compatible car seat and often a carrycot. Perfect for parents who want seamless transitions from car to pushchair without disturbing their sleeping baby. Explore our 3-in-1 prams and 2-in-1 prams for complete versatility from birth.

Lightweight Strollers

Lightweight strollers are compact, easy to fold, and perfect for travel, public transport, and city living. With umbrella-style folding mechanisms and streamlined designs, they're ideal as a secondary pushchair or for families on the go.

All-Terrain & 3-Wheel Pushchairs

3-wheel pushchairs feature robust suspension, larger wheels, and superior manoeuvrability for countryside walks, beach trips, and uneven terrain. Perfect for active families who love outdoor adventures.

Double & Twin Pushchairs

Double pushchairs and twin pushchairs accommodate two children, available in side-by-side or tandem configurations. Essential for parents of twins or siblings close in age.

Jogging Strollers

Jogging strollers are designed for active parents who want to maintain their fitness routine. With fixed front wheels, superior suspension, and hand brakes, they're built for running and fast-paced walks.

Key Features to Consider

From Birth Suitability

If you need a pushchair from birth, look for models with lie-flat recline positions or compatible carrycots. Our prams from birth collection offers safe, comfortable options for newborns.

Folding Mechanism

Consider how the pushchair folds - one-hand fold mechanisms are convenient for parents juggling a baby and bags, whilst compact folds are essential for small car boots and storage spaces.

Wheel Configuration

Four-wheel pushchairs offer stability, whilst three-wheel designs provide superior manoeuvrability. Larger wheels handle rough terrain better, whilst smaller wheels are ideal for smooth pavements.

Storage & Accessories

Look for spacious shopping baskets, parent consoles, and cup holders. Enhance your pushchair with deluxe footmuffs for winter warmth, raincovers for wet weather, and parasols for sun protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a pushchair, pram, and stroller?

A pram is designed for newborns with a flat carrycot for lie-flat sleeping. A pushchair has a seat unit suitable for babies who can sit up (usually 6 months+) with reclining positions. A stroller is typically a lightweight, compact version of a pushchair, ideal for travel and older babies. Many modern systems combine all three functions in versatile travel systems.

Can I use a pushchair from birth?

Yes, if the pushchair offers a completely flat recline position or comes with a compatible carrycot attachment. Always check the manufacturer's age recommendations. Our prams from birth collection features newborn-safe options.

What size pushchair fits through a standard doorway?

Standard UK doorways are approximately 76cm (30 inches) wide. Most single pushchairs are 55-65cm wide and will fit comfortably. Double pushchairs vary - side-by-side models can be 70-80cm wide, whilst tandem designs are similar width to single pushchairs. Always check dimensions before purchasing.

How long will my pushchair last?

Most pushchairs are suitable from birth (with appropriate attachments) up to approximately 15-25kg (3-4 years), depending on the model. Travel systems and convertible pushchairs offer the longest use, whilst lightweight strollers may have lower weight limits. Quality pushchairs can last through multiple children with proper care.

Do I need a travel system or just a pushchair?

A travel system is ideal if you want seamless car-to-pushchair transitions and plan to use a car seat frequently. If you primarily walk or use public transport, a standalone pushchair with a carrycot may suffice. Consider your lifestyle and how often you'll be transferring between car and pushchair.

Expert Tips for Choosing Your Pushchair

  1. Test before you buy - Visit our store or check dimensions carefully to ensure the pushchair fits your car boot, home, and lifestyle
  2. Consider your terrain - City dwellers benefit from compact, manoeuvrable pushchairs, whilst countryside families need robust all-terrain options
  3. Think long-term - Invest in quality that will last through multiple children and years of use
  4. Check compatibility - Ensure car seats, carrycots, and accessories are compatible with your chosen pushchair
  5. Read reviews - Learn from other parents' experiences with specific models
  6. Budget for accessories - Factor in costs for footmuffs, raincovers, and other essential extras
