Lightweight

A lightweight frame and puncture-proof tyres are the key to a stroller that can travel anywhere. These ensure you can tackle any surface, from grass to slick pavements with ease. All-terrain pushchairs resemble SUVs, and are usually designed to handle rough terrain, but they also work in urban environments.

If you're looking for a light stroller, look for a compact folding design and braking system that's easy to use. Some models include a brake pedal at the rear axle that can be pushed down to stop the wheels from moving. This feature is great for parents-to-be planning to travel with their infant.

An umbrella pushchair may require more care than a full-size pushchair since the fabric is less durable. Always follow the guidelines for proper care. Check if the pushchair can be washed by machine and if it requires special cleaning products or chemicals. If you notice mildew or mould on your pushchair the best thing to do is to clean it off, soak it in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly outdoors.

Easy to transport

There are a lot of things to think about when selecting the best pushchair. Size, design, and features such as three-wheeled, compatibility with multiple children, or auto-folding are all important aspects. However, the mechanism for folding is equally important since it will determine how well your buggy will fit into your lifestyle.

The way that your buggy collapses can make a huge impact on your daily routine, regardless of whether you choose an umbrella fold or scissor folding. Umbrella-fold pushchairs, which are typically lightweight strollers, are named because they fold in a similar way to brolly. The buggy folds itself by lifting a lever at the rear. The top half is folded on the lower half. This makes them easy to collapse by hand, perfect if you're holding your child or carrying shopping bags.

Another alternative is a pushchair that has scissor folds like the Le Clerc Influencer XL. These pushchairs fold in a scissor like manner, resulting in a flat, square-ish shape. The pushchairs are easy to unfold but tend to be wider when folded than umbrella-folded pushchairs, therefore they might not fit into smaller car boot sizes.

If you're using your pushchair for a travel system with a carrycot then it's worth checking that the seat has an adjustable recline that can lie flat. A pushchair that doesn't have a lie-flat recline may not be suitable for babies. This is due to the fact that they must lie flat to ensure proper lung and spine development.

You should also think about how easy it is to clean your pushchair. Depending on the fabric, you can either machine wash it or spot clean it using warm water and a little detergent. If the hood can be removed this will make it much easier to eliminate any mould or mildew and then dry it thoroughly outside. If the wheels of your pram are removable they can be washed with soapy water to keep them clean. The same applies to any raincovers that might be attached to your pushchair - it's important to make sure they aren't damp or covered in mud as this can cause rust.
