It is crucial to consider the overall size of the pram when choosing one, since you don't want it to take up too much space in your car trunk or in your living space. Select a model that can be folded easily and is compact when folded to ensure it will fit.

Wheels

The wheels are what propel the pram, and offer your child a safe ride. There are three wheel types: rubber, foam, and EVA (a more rigid plastic type). Each has pros and cons based on what you plan to use your pushchair for.

Rubber wheels are the most commonly used, and they provide excellent grip on all surfaces. They are prone to puncturing using a compressor for car tyres to blow them up too hard.

PU or Polyurethane wheels are foam filled so they are lighter than rubber tyres. They don't have the same shock-absorbing capability and can feel more harsh on rough concrete surfaces. They are more commonly found on prams than strollers, and are the cheapest option.

EVA or Ethylene Vinyl Acetate is a harder plastic material that is lighter and has some of the characteristics of rubber, but not as much. It can be used to replace PU or rubber in your pram due to its low maintenance and weight reduction.

Having strong reliable brakes on your stroller is a crucial feature that will protect your baby, you and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs feature brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis. It can be activated either by pressing a lever or a button on the handlebars or by pressing down with your foot. The brakes should be simple to use and should lock immediately when you press them. Some pushchairs have brakes on the middle wheel for added stability and control.
