Seat
A pram is likely to be among the most frequently used pieces of baby equipment that you purchase so it's important that it is comfortable for your little one. Look for models that have adjustable handlebars, comfortable seats padding and a recline feature so that you can easily lay your child down. Make sure the pushchair comes with a 'parent facing (or rear facing)' or 'world-facing' setting for children who want to be able to see more of what's going on around them.

It is important to think about 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 your living space. Pick a model that is able to fold easily and is compact when collapsed to ensure it can fit. You can determine the ease or difficulty it is by reading reviews (like the ones on MadeForMums).
A high-quality pram must fold completely flat, allowing your child to lie down comfortably for the first six months of their lives. This is essential for their development. Be sure that the pram you're considering can do this, and that it can be used with a car seat should it be required.
Wheels
The wheels move the pram and provide your child a comfortable ride. There are three wheel types: rubber, foam, and EVA (a more rigid plastic type). Each wheel type has pros and cons depending on how you plan to use your stroller.
Rubber wheels are the most popular and provide great grip on all surfaces. The only down side is that they could be punctured if they are inflated too quickly with an auto tyre pump. This isn't a typical issue and is usually caused by over-inflating the wheels. This wheel type is commonly used on all-terrain buggies, as well as buggies that run.
PU or Polyurethane Wheels are filled with foam, so they are lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock absorption capabilities and can sometimes feel more hard on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are more commonly found on prams and strollers than on strollers and are the most affordable option.
EVA or Ethylene vinyl Acetate, is a polymer material that shares some of the properties of rubber and is also lighter. It can be used to replace PU or rubber in your pram for its low maintenance and weight reduction.
It is important to have a reliable brake system in your
triple stroller. This will protect you, your child and other pedestrians. Most pushchairs feature a brake pedal on the rear chassis. It can be activated by pressing a lever, or button on the handlebars, or by pressing down your foot. The brakes should be simple to operate and should lock immediately after you press them. Some pushchairs feature brakes on the middle wheel for additional stability and control.
Carrycot
The carrycot is an easy-to-use portable cot that can be attached to the chassis of any pushchair. It is ideal for babies and infants between six and six months old. age, since they need to lie flat in order to develop their spine and lungs.
