Best Prams For Toddlers
When it comes time to choose a pram, a lot of parents are looking to purchase one that can meet their family's needs over the course of time. You can pick a travel system which converts from a 'pramette, or a flat-lay for infants, into a pushchair for toddlers.
The Silver Cross Wave is a premium set of wheels that provides this. It can be used with a car seat or carrycot and it has 30 different seating options.
1. Stokke Xplory X
The Xplory X is the newest model from a company that is known for its unique Scandinavian design. It's designed to keep your baby close to you while you're traveling, and to enhance the importance of that connection. It comes with a unique height-adjustable seat, so that your baby can sit up higher to get the best view and more eye contact with you.
This stroller is a great option for parents who want quality, function and style without compromising safety or style. With a variety of colors that seem to be pulled straight off the runway and premium detailing from top to bottom this stroller has something to suit everyone.
The 360-degree locking swivel wheel makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces. This pram is easy to maneuver and can be driven by one hand. It's also extremely adaptable, and can be converted into a travel-system by using the carry-cot and car seat adaptors that are sold separately.
Although the Xplory X is expensive (around PS845) it's well worth the cost for the unique design that will bring your baby closer to your while out and out and about. The ability to shift the seat from a parent-facing position to a world-facing one also gives your baby a different perspective and boosts their growth and learning. It can be a challenge to move around with the seat facing the world. You may need to lift the handlebar in order to move your child from an eating area to a table. You can also purchase additional accessories like a foot muff and a rain cover for this pram.
2. Graco Air
The Graco Air has a one-handed, self-standing fold that is auto-locking and has a convenient carry handle that fits under the seat. The seat has a tightly woven smooth canvas with a rougher, more durable material on the sides. The same rough material is used for the peek-aboo. The storage bin is huge however it isn't able to hold our medium diaper bag because of a bar at the opening. The console for parents has two cup holders of average depth. The child cup holder can be used to store certain infant bottles and baby bottles as well as sippy cups that are slim.
3. Joie Versatrax
The Joie Versatrax pram was designed with parents and babies in mind. The pushchair is robust in both build and quality and yet it folds in a compact way for storage, meaning it takes less space than traditional prams. This is crucial for those who live in tiny houses or apartments, as the pushchair will easily fit into the space.
The Versatrax is a flexible 4in1 stroller that can be adjusted to the changing requirements of your child. It can be used with a carry-cot and infant carrier that allows you to build an elegant travel system right from the beginning. This can be done using the unique adapters which clip in and secure your car seat, or the Joie ramble xl carry cot (carrier and carry cot are sold separately).
The unique aspect of the stroller is that it can rock your baby's seat, giving him the baby is comfortable. It also has an adjustable and reclining footrests to ensure maximum comfort. The Versatrax also features a spacious shopping pram basket and a canopy that can be extended that provides protection from the sun.
The Joie Versatrax can be used from birth and comes with an easy fold mechanism with one hand for convenient storage. It also has an adjustable height handlebar that ensures that it is simple to use by different users. The wheels are made of tough rubber and foam-filled tyres. This makes it simple to use on any terrain, while providing an enjoyable ride for the infant. This is an excellent option for families seeking a high-quality, reliable pram that can grow with their child. It also works with the Joie ISnug 2, car seat, which is a perfect addition to a travel system.
4. Uppababy Vista
The UPPAbaby Vista stroller is one of the most sought-after strollers on the market. It has been a sought-after choice since it first launched in 2006 and is among of the most stylish and durable strollers. It can be expanded from a single stroller to a double by adding adapters. The PiggyBack ride-along board can also accommodate a third child.
The Vista is easy to put together and fold. This makes it a great option for parents who are tight time or want to leave quickly. It is also easy to use, and offers a comfortable ride for the child. The seat is padded and well-sized, giving plenty of leg room and headroom. The canopy is spacious and provides good protection from the sun.
Another aspect that makes the Vista an excellent stroller is its capacity to convert into an infant bassinet. This creates a warm and comfortable environment for babies. The bassinet can be attached to the stroller frame and can be placed on an even surface or in an upright position.
This stroller is compatible with various car seats including the Chicco Keyfit 30 and Cybex Aviano. It doesn't come with lower or upper car seat adapters but they can be purchased separately for most configurations.
UPPAbaby has made some updates to its Vista model for the year 2018. Most notable is that the fabric is more durable and the bassinet now comes with a longer mattress to provide more comfort. The canopy remains big and has medium peek-a-boo windows that offer some shade. The bassinet comes with a zippered panel that extends the bassinet for additional protection against the sun. The large basket of the Vista is another thing that will appeal to many families.
5. Bugaboo Donkey
The Bugaboo Donkey is a premium double stroller with a lot of unique features. It is one of the most versatile strollers on the market and can be transformed into three different configurations. It can be used side-by-side with a bassinet, a twin with two seats or a triple that has the comfort wheeled board. It also works with a variety of infant car seats made by brands such as Chicco, Nuna and Maxi-Cosi.
The Donkey is a stylish chassis with big wheels, beautiful fabric and frame. It has a cool peek-a-boo window in the canopy, and a large, well-designed basket with lots of space. It is easy to push with its telescoping handlebar, which allows you to adjust it to your height. My husband, who is 6'1, was capable of pushing it with ease.
The Donkey has its own set of issues. It can be a nuisance when it bumps into doors and is wider than the majority of its rivals. The canopy shade can also cause irritation to passengers by rubbing and getting caught on things like handrails. It is difficult to move the seats when reclining. It can be a bit costly as well.
The latest version, Donkey 5, is even better. One of the changes is that the release buttons are now on the front, making it a much more compact fold. The second reason is that it now has an Graphite (dark grey) frame that is stunning with the new fabric and sun canopy colors. It also has built-in attachment points for the comfort wheeled board and cup holder to eliminate the necessity for adapters. Overall, it's a nice pram that has some issues, but it has many other great features to outweigh these.
