This will make it easier to transfer your child from the car into the pram without having to wake them up and is ideal for parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and useful pram that can convert easily from a'pramette' lying flat' to a toddler-friendly pushchair, compatible with the Graco I-Size car seats.

Safety

A pram set should have a five-point safety harness to keep your baby safe and free of any gaps that could trap their legs or head. The straps should be cushioned and easy to adjust as they expand. You should also inspect the buckles of your harness to make sure that they are not cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Many children are hospitalised each year due to injuries caused by strollers or prams pushchairs prams pushchairs. Tipping over is the primary cause of these injuries. Even the most sturdy prams can topple if you hook bags to the handles or if a child is wriggling and gets into or out of the seat before the harness is tightened.

Another common cause of injury is falling from the pram or stroller. If a child is not properly secured the pram stores near me, they could fall out of the stroller and suffer head or neck injuries. It is therefore essential to make sure that the buckle on the harness is clicked into the proper position.

Some good prams also have a reversible canopy that will protect your baby from the sun in either direction. This feature is useful because you don't have to wake up your baby when you change their position in the stroller, or when you go into stores and out. Other handy features include a snack tray and drink holders for your infant or toddler, a basket for shopping underneath the seat, and a handlebar that locks in place when you are not using it.

It is not advisable to leave a sleeping child in their stroller unless they are within sight of them at all times. Babies tend to wriggle while asleep, which can cause them to fall off the stroller or pram and could result in strangulation or suffocation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a cot and should only be used for short periods of time during the daytime.

The majority of prams require you to disassemble them in order to fit them into the car's boot so it is an excellent idea to familiarize yourself with the process before you purchase one. Consider how easy it would be to put the parts back together.

Durability

A pram should be able to last through many years of wear and wear and tear. This includes having to deal with walking in the rain and many car journeys, which is why you want to be sure your choice will do the job you need it to. It is important to ensure that your stroller is in a colour or print that won't fade easily so you don't look like you've lost fashion.

The best travel stroller prams will be constructed of top-quality materials and designed to last. You should look for durable fabrics as well as sturdy tires and an efficient suspension system. The top prams have a compact fold so you can store them easily in your garage or the boot when not in use.

All the prams in this list allow your baby to lie on their backs. This is crucial for newborns, because it aids in the development of their spine and hips and boosts oxygen levels. Many are designed to adapt to your child's needs with some featuring a carrycot, or a fully reclined seat that can be moved on and off the frame at a time when your child is no longer using it.

If you are considering buying a pram for the very first time you should consider a travel system that comes with a carrycot and a car seat may be a good idea. We are awestruck by the Graco Near2Me system that our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It has a nifty feature that can raise or lower your child with the click of a button. This way you can maintain eye contact and keep them close, which she described as being important to her as the baby was still at an exploratory stage.

Another alternative is the Bugaboo Fox 3 which our tester Jess Bird used with her two children, Effie and Boden (pictured above). It's a luxurious pram that can be converted from a single to double pushchair, with 30 different configurations, and comes with luxurious fabrics, an expandable sun canopy, and puncture-proof tyres. It's not cheap, but you can use it for more than one child in the event of need and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the included carrycot.

Style

All prams should permit newborns to lay as flat as possible. This will help with their development and boost oxygen saturation in the lung. Some models permit an all-flat position by using a carrycot that can be fully reclined, whereas others have a seat that can be reclined to a horizontal or a vertical position.

The Graco Near2Me features the latter feature, and it's fantastic at that as our tester for parents Jaya found when she tested it with her 10-month-old son. She was enthralled by the fact that she could raise or lower her little one with the press of a button and keep him in the view of others while maintaining eye contact and a closeness.

It's a great pram for those that want to get around town with ease as the frame is a good size for manoeuvring, while the puncture-proof tyres permit you to move it off the road and onto rough terrain. It's also a smart choice if you're planning on having a second child in the future since it is able to convert from a single pushchair to a twin or double pushchair.

The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a stylish, high-end option.
