Top 5 folding pram Strollers

Strollers are essential equipment for babies that offer comfort and value during the precious first few years of a child's life. It's also a great investment that will last through many babies.

When choosing the best stroller be sure to consider the ease with which it can fold. Most modern pushchairs fold in just one tug. However, the method varies from brand to brand.

Easy to fold

The UPPAbaby G-Luxe is the perfect pram for parents-to-be who want strollers that are easy to fold and to store. This pushchair boasts a one-hand fold that's extremely compact. It's also light and can easily fit into the boot of your vehicle.

The stroller's one-hand folding mechanism is enabled by the lever on the handle and an additional ring in the rear. To ensure a smooth one-hand fold, the handle and ring need to be precisely timed. The majority of strollers require that you fold them before going through security. Always go through the specific instructions of your model for more specific instructions regarding folding your stroller. Be aware that you may need to hand-check larger strollers at certain airports. If so, make sure you have an extra bag to secure the stroller during travel.

Easy to store

If you're looking for a lightweight stroller that feels just as luxurious as larger models but occupies less space you can try the Triv from Nuna Baby. It's not the most compact or lightest stroller on our list but it's a breeze to fold and move around, and it comes with many features that you would think you'd only find in more expensive strollers.

It's also designed to fit the form of a custom carrycot (which can be used from birth) or baby's moses basket This means you can transform it into an e-travel system and use it for longer than many other compact prams will allow. It's also comfortable on most terrains and comes with plenty of storage.

UPPAbaby is known for its huge shopping baskets, but with the G-Luxe they have been able to squeeze all this functionality into a small size. It's a challenge to fold due to the naughty handle/ring combination that must be timed perfectly. It's still a great option, though, especially because it can easily transform into a twin pushchair using the YOYO Connect seat.

Easy to manoeuvre

Despite not being the lightest or smallest pram, this model from Silver Cross is surprisingly easy to navigate. It's perfect for families growing since it can be used from birth to toddler stroller, with the newborn bassinet, pack or car seat, and even comes with a buggy board for older children. It's also comfortable on most terrain, and more robust than many lighter compact cheap prams. This premium pram is loved by A-list celebrities and has many features for parents. It's a blast to drive, and gets even more maneuverable after you activate the front lock that swivels. It's incredibly easy to collapse.

Easy to clean

If you've got a pram pushchair that has been through a lot of activity and is in need of a thorough clean, every now and then is essential. A dirty buggy is not only unhygienic for your child and their surroundings, but it can also harbour germs. If you intend to use your pram again to be used by future children, or sell it, a well maintained stroller will appear its best for as long as is possible.

Most prams come with an instruction manual that gives cleaning guidelines, often accompanied by specific directions for cleaning and maintenance of various parts. If not, you can check online for suggestions.

The first step for cleaning a pram is to take off all fabric components (seat and canopy, baskets, etc.)) and wash them as directed by the manufacturer. Washing these items in warm, soapy water is essential since cold or hot water can harm the fabric. After washing, it's advised to let the fabric dry fully before reattaching, preferring a sunny spot.

Apart from washing, it's recommended to check your pram regularly for any signs of wear or loose screws. This will help to prevent the pram from being damaged or unstable which could create danger to your child. Check the brakes, locking mechanisms and harness to ensure they are in good working condition. It's also a good idea, to give your frames and wheels an oil spray to keep them running smoothly.

It's worth investing in a pram with car seat liner or a cover, which will provide an extra layer of protection against spills and stains. They can be easily removed and cleaned to ensure that your stroller is in good condition for a longer period of time. You can also upgrade your stroller by adding new cushions, wheels, or sun canopy. This will make it appear more elegant and will match your child's outfit. You should also consider using a touch-up marker for your pram to cover up any scrapes or scratches on the frame, especially black prams, which can show dirt quite quickly.
