Buying your first pushchair is an expensive and hazard filled decision to make. There are so many things to consider when you're browsing the comparison sites and high street stores. Does it fold down easily? Will it fit in the boot of your car? Will it do a back flip if you pop a grocery bag on the handles? How will it cope on bumpy mountainous terrain (bizarrely this is a test a lot of pushchairs go through)
To save you a bit of time, I've had a look through quite a few comparison sites, and pulled out the top 10 that mums have voted as the best ones!
This Britax Vigour 4+ (right) comes in at around £150.04
I saw the Maclaren Techno XT being tested last week on BBC's Watchdog and it came out really well in all the tests. The pushchair, which you can buy for around £164.95, did particularly well in the shopping bag test but also folded down nicely too.
Phil & Teds Vibe Inline Pushchair & Double Kit is a buggy that best suits the needs of those with twins or two kids close together in age. It's not cheap, at £495, but it's had excellent reviews for it's strong, solid structure, and the ability to fold it away without removing the toddler seat.
£495
The Toys r Us for a bargain busting £99.99, it's a sturdy stroller that enables a smoother ride over 'rocky terrain' whilst still allowing an easy turn around tight corners.
Obviously it's best to try all the prams when you pop into town, but hopefully this will give you an overview of what to look for. It's also worth shopping around online, as prices can vary between stockists.
