The search for a pram often starts even before the baby is born. From an early age, it is important to be able to move around smoothly with your baby. However, choosing the right pram is not as easy as it seems. You need to take many factors into account and carefully consider the situations in which you wish to use the pushchair. Will you be walking a lot in the city or in nature? Should the pram be easily foldable to take with you in the car? Do you want to be able to expand your pushchair with a future sibling in mind?

Choice of brands

Every parent is in a different situation, so it is very difficult to compare and know exactly what you need. In addition, safety and comfort are also very important. A pram will last for years, so it is crucial to make the right choice from the start. In addition, do you think durability is also an important factor? Then that is an additional element to consider.

To assure you of good quality, you can find the 10 best pushchair brands below. This will help you get started in your search! This overview will help you get an idea of what each brand stands for and help you make your first selection. Be sure to take a look at our comparison page as well.

Three pillars: comfort, ease of use and safety

When choosing a pushchair, there are three things you should definitely pay attention to. Firstly, the pushchair should be comfortable. On the one hand, this means that your baby should lie well and feel comfortable. On the other hand, your own comfort is also very important. The pushchair should be ergonomic so that you can push it without too much effort and with little risk of back pain.

A second important pillar is ease of use. Think of how easy it is to open and fold the pram, but also how to add or remove elements, such as a rain screen or a seat for a sibling. A pram on which you sit cursing all the time because you don’t understand the system is not to be recommended.

Thirdly, it is important that the pram is properly secured. Does the belt close properly? Does the system latch sufficiently when unfolding? Are the wheels slip-resistant? Obviously, the safety of you and your baby are top priority. Below are the main well-known brands that we can say with certainty meet these three pillars.

1. Bugaboo

Bugaboo is a brand that explicitly puts comfort first. Its prams push you effortlessly forward and your child is at ease, from baby to toddler.

Don’t like these brands? It is also possible to go for an unbranded pushchair.

If you have your eye on such a pram, be sure to ask about its specifications and try it out. That way, you can feel whether it rides pleasantly and whether the pram is easy to fold and unfold.

You may find some cheaper models among unbranded prams, but that depends very much on the type. Cheap is certainly not always better and many quality brands also launch budget prams.
