There are a large number of pushchairs, prams and buggies on the market. No two pushchairs are alike, and each serves a different purpose depending upon your needs. If you purchase a pushchair that has the following 3 components, then you will have something that will much more enjoyable for you and your child.
1. Pneumatic Tyres - these tyres are highly recommended because of the smooth ride they offer. With infants spending more and more time in prams and pushchairs, it is vital to give them a pleasurable ride. Otherwise they will be miserable and so will you. Most pushchairs have those little plastic wheels, and you know how bumpy the ride can be if the terrain is anything but perfectly flat. This is not optimal for our children. One more thing I love about these large pneumatic tyres is that you are not limited to only taking the pushchair around the city. You can quite easily take it into the countryside and over grass areas without a problem.
2. Three Wheels - the 3 wheeler pushchairs offer greater manoeuvrability than their 4 wheeled counterparts. As a parent you will appreciate this when you are in narrow shopping aisles or just out and about in crowded areas. It's quite an experience to be able to spin around on a dime, and not need to lean the pushchair back, with front wheels in the air, and then turn around. Fantastic. Don't forget that the front swivel wheel should also be able to be locked. This will give more stability if you need it. These types of pushchairs also tend to be narrower and smaller and can fold more easily into the car.
3. Forward and Rear-Facing Seats - this means that you are able to unclip the child's seat and either have the child facing you or facing out to the world in front of them. Research has shown that young infants and babies benefit from being able to see their parents when they are in a pram or a pushchair. Nevertheless, our children will still want to see what is around them, so the ability to switch the seat around is a great benefit.
Take these points into consideration when you buy your next pushchair.
