Cheap PushchairsWhen you are looking for the perfect
holiday pushchair, there are plenty of things to take into consideration. What you like about your outdoor life may not be suitable for urban living. A pushchair that glides across shiny store floors may struggle in dirt terrain.
If you're planning to have a baby number two then the option of a travel system that could be made into twin pushchairs is the best choice. These are designed to grow with your child and are typically used from birth until six months.
iCandy Peach
This luxurious pram has been a favourite with celebrity mums and offers an exceptional amount of features for the money. It is suitable for babies because of the spacious carrycot and can be converted into a twin pushchair with innovative adaptors. Its premium knitted jersey fabrics offer modern, soft and durable feel.

Elevators elevate the seat to create an on-the-go highchair to aid interaction and enable parents to roll up & Dine in restaurants. It also comes with a fashionable footmuff and changing bag for an all-in-one travel solution.
The chassis made of aluminium in the Peach 7 is lighter than other
pushchairs from birth and its tyres made of polyurethane can withstand any terrain - from bumpy roads and sports fields to parkland and forest trails that are muddy. The suspension has been made slightly softened to make it more comfortable for both baby and
parent facing pushchair while the front wheels rotate so that it is easy to turn corners, even with one hand. Its compact footprint and tight turning circle mean it can easily navigate narrow aisles for shopping and hallways and is therefore perfect for urban living.
This model is available in a variety of colourways as well as iCandy Black Special Edition. The frame and the fabrics are black to create a monochrome appearance. It comes with a built-in cup holder and is compatible with the iCandy Cuddler, iCandy Rocker and iCandy Sidekick Stroller.

Babyzen YOYO2
The Babyzen YOYO2 pram is a lightweight, stylish and easy-to-use pram. It's a great choice if you live in the city and often take the tube to work, wish to fold up your stroller and put it into your trunk while driving, or require a light pram to take on a day out with just you and baby. It's also eco-friendly.
The YOYO 2 starts at PS399 for the chassis and 6+ color pack and the newborn bassinet or a car seat (sold separately) and you'll pay about PS800 for a complete travel system. This is in line with similar "urban pushchairs" such as the Bugaboo Bee 6. Bugaboo Bee 6.
YOYO 2 is extremely compact when folded, measuring 52 x 44 x18 cm (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1 inches). It is compatible with the cabin baggage allowances set by most airlines. It is also among the few double strollers that can be used from birth, using either the newborn bassinet or the 0+ or newborn fabric pack.
It comes with small wheels that work best on grass and pavements but can still tackle bumpier terrain - although adventurous families may want to look for something with all-terrain wheels. It's got a clever feature as well: the handlebar can be pulled back to allow you to take a seat in a restaurant after you've rolled your YOYO 2.
The YOYO 2, with its small turning ratio, is one of the easiest strollers to maneuver. However, it requires two hands to fold and unfold. It cannot also be pulled on its wheels when folded, like many other umbrella pushchairs.
My Babiie
If you're looking for an entire travel system, the My Babiie is the perfect choice. This bundle is suitable for use beginning at the time of birth. It includes a car, carrycot, and pushchair in one. It's a great option for toddlers and newborns due to its iSize compatibility and its large car seat base. Plus, the seat is fully reclineable and can help your toddler or baby to snooze on the go. It has a large extendable hood that protects them from the sun.
The My Babiie MB250 stroller is simple to use and can be folded using the carrycot, a carrier or seat that is attached. It is lightweight and easy to maneuver. It can be folded with one hand. It is also compact and fits into most small cars. It comes with a range of accessories including the changing bag, rain cover and cup holder.
My Babiie is known for its chic products that have been created by celebrity moms. Christina Milian was involved in the design of the Belgravia Black and Rose Gold Travel System. But, even if celebrity partnerships aren't your thing This is a great all-rounder that has lots of features to keep your family members happy.
This My Babiie MB500 iSize Spin car seat has been tested to the most stringent standards. It is suitable for infants from birth until around 4 years old. It can be attached to the chassis using the use of ISOFIX connectors. It is also compatible with My Babiie Explorer MB52, which comes in three stylish fabrics, and comes with a lie flat seat, a newborn insert, and a tall hood. When you're ready to move your child from the car seat to the stroller, just click the seat onto the chassis by pressing two buttons on each side.
Bugaboo Bee
The Bugaboo Bee is a stylish practical, affordable, and stylish pushchair. It's been in use since 2007 and was recently relaunched with the latest Bee 6 model. The major difference between the previous models is that it now features an adjustable height backrest and a larger sun canopy, and an articulating system that is circular, making it easier to move the seat and turn it towards you or away from you.
The Bee 6 is also a smaller car which makes it ideal to squeeze into public transport and navigating those tricky city streets. Additionally the iconic yellow colour makes it easy for people to spot you on the street and for Deliveroo cyclists to see you when they're rushing down your street.
It's a pleasure to drive, too with a responsive steering and a smooth suspension. I also enjoyed the wide and deep basket, which is ideal for grocery shopping trips, and the fact that it's easily accessible whether you have the seat facing the other direction or away from it.
Another thing that really impressed me about the Bee is the way it is solid and sturdy feels. The handle bar is very comfortable to hold, and the pushchair is simply a pleasure to use. It's obvious that this buggy has been designed to last for generations.
Of course it's not inexpensively - the Bee costs PS1000 at retail but it's also much less than other high-end strollers. With its capabilities and build quality I believe it's worth the price. Especially for those who are as concerned about style as they are with functionality.
Baby Jogger Urban Glide Double
The Baby Jogger Urban Glide 2 Double Jogger features stadium seating that can accommodate two children. It can be used with a variety of brands and fits one car seat. It's more expensive than the other strollers on this list, but has a large storage basket and a good quality score. It also comes with a bumper bar that could be used to store toys or serve as a resting area for children.
The stroller is sleek and easy to
new born push chair. The three large wheels are fitted with air-filled tires, which make jogging or navigating rough terrain effortless. It is lightweight, offers a comfortable and ergonomic handbar, footbrake and brakes that can be pushed or squeezed. The only disadvantages of this bike are that it does not recline and the canopy doesn't cover the entire seat.
Another plus for this stroller is it can be transformed into an infant stroller by incorporating a bassinet. It comes with a huge shopping basket, which is great for picking up items on your way home. It is also extremely robust which means it can be used as a jogging walker from the start and will last for several years.
It's too large and bulky to fit in narrow doors or even a small boot. It's best for families with an expansive garage or driveway and don't mind carrying it around. The price may also be a deterrent for some. It's not compatible with infant car seat, so you'll need to buy a bassinet separately for the first 8 months.
