Best Prams For Toddlers
Many parents are looking for an infant stroller that can adapt to their growing family. You can choose a travel system that can be converted from a 'pramette,' or a flat-lay for infants, into a pushchair for toddlers.
Silver Cross Wave wheels are a premium set that offer this. It is compatible with the car seat or carrycot, and comes with 30 different seating options.
1. Stokke Xplory X
The Xplory X is the newest model from a brand that prides itself on its innovative Scandinavian design. It's designed to keep your baby close while you are out and about, boosting the importance of that connection. It also features a unique adjustable height of the seat, which means your baby can face you and engage with you in a variety of positions or sit higher to see the world and interact with you from a greater perspective.
This pram is the perfect option for parents looking for quality, functionality and style without sacrificing safety or fashion. This stroller comes in a range of colors that look like they came straight from the runway. It also has exquisite design throughout.
It's easy to maneuver and features locking 360-degree swivel wheels, which help you navigate difficult spaces. This pram can even be operated with just one hand, which is ideal when your hands are full. It's also highly adaptable and can be converted into a travel unit with the carry cot option or car seat adaptors, which are available separately.
Although the Xplory X is expensive (around PS845) it's worth the money for the unique design that draws your baby closer to you when out and out and about. The ability to shift the seat from a parent-facing position to a world-facing one also provides your baby with a new perspective and helps with their development and learning. However it can be challenging to walk around with the seat in world-facing mode and you may need to lift the handlebar to take your child to a table or a restaurant. You can also buy additional accessories, such as an ear muff for your feet and a rain cover for this pram.
2. Graco Air
The Graco Air has a one-handed, auto-lock, self-standing fold with an easy-to-use carry handle that is tucked under the seat. The seat has a tightly knitted smooth canvas, with a rougher, more durable material on the sides. The peek-a-boo window is made of the same rough material. The storage bin is big but it's not big enough for our medium diaper bag due to a bar inside the opening. The console for parents has two cup holders of average depth. The cup holder for children is soft and will fit certain infant and baby bottles with thin sippy cups.
3. Joie Versatrax
The Joie Versatrax pram was designed with the needs of parents and children in the mind. The pushchair is robust in both build and quality and yet it folds to be compact for storage, taking up less room than long traditional prams. This is particularly important when you live in a cramped home or apartment, as it means that the pushchair can easily fit in your space.
The Versatrax is an adaptable 4in1 stroller that can be adapted to the changing needs of your child. The pram is compatible with a carry-cot and infant carrier which allows you to create a travel system that's deluxe right from the beginning. The adapters that clip into your car seat to hold it or the Joie Ramble xl Carry Cot (carrier and Carry Cot sold separately) can be used to accomplish this.
The stroller comes with an innovative feature that lets you to put your baby in the seat. This allows for a relaxing ride. It also features a reclined seat and an adjustable footrest for maximum comfort. The Versatrax has a large shopping basket and an extendable canopy that provides shade from the sun.
The Joie Versatrax can be used from birth and has an easy fold mechanism with one hand for convenient storage. It has a height adjustable handlebar, making it easy to use by different users. The wheels are made of read more durable rubber and filled with foam tyres. This makes it easy to use on any terrain, and provides an enjoyable ride for the baby. This is a great option for families seeking a high-quality pram that is reliable and will develop with their child. It also works with the Joie i-Snug 2 car seats for a complete travel system.
4. Uppababy Vista
The UPPAbaby Vista is one of the best strollers available on the market. It has been a cult stroller since its launch in 2006, and is one the most stylish and durable strollers. It can be expanded from a single stroller by adding adapters, and can accommodate a third kid via the PiggyBack ride along board.
The Vista is easy to assemble and fold down, making it a great choice for parents with limited time or who want to get out of the house quickly. It is also easy to use, and provides a comfortable ride for your child. The seat is cushioned and well-sized, providing plenty of leg and headroom. The canopy is spacious and offers good protection from the sun.
Another feature that makes the Vista an excellent stroller is its capacity to convert into the bassinet. This creates a setting that is warm and comfortable for infants. The bassinet can be attached to the frame of the stroller and can be used on an even surface or in an upright position.
This stroller can be used with a variety of car seats, including the Chicco Keyfit 30 and Cybex Aviano. It does not include lower or upper car seats adapters, but they are available separately for all configurations.
UPPAbaby has made some updates to its Vista model for 2018. Most notably, the fabric is more durable, and the bassinet comes with a longer mattress for greater comfort. The canopy is still large, and it features a moderate peek-aboo window to offer some shade. The bassinet is breathable and has a a zippered extension panel for extra protection from the sun. The large basket of the Vista is another attraction for many families.
5. Bugaboo Donkey
The Bugaboo Donkey double stroller is an excellent product that comes with many amazing features. It is among the most versatile strollers on the market, and can be transformed into three different configurations. It can be used in three different configurations such as a twin with a bassinet or a triple that has a comfort wheeled board. It can be used with a range of infant car seats including the ones from Chicco Nuna and Maxi-Cosi.
The Donkey is a sleek chassis with large wheels and a beautiful frame and fabric. It has a cool peekaboo window on the canopy, and a large well-designed, well-constructed basket with plenty of space. It is easy for you to push due to its Telescoping handlebar. My husband, who is 6'1, was able to push it easily.
However the Donkey has some issues. It is prone to hitting doors and is wider than the majority of its rivals. The shade on the canopy can be irritating to passengers as it rubs and is caught on things such as handrails. It can be a little difficult to move the seats when reclined. It can be a bit costly also.
The latest version, Donkey 5, is even better. One of them is that the release buttons are now on the front, making it a much more compact fold. It now has an Graphite frame (dark gray) that is gorgeous with the new fabric colors as well as sun canopy colors. And finally, it now includes built-in attachment points to the comfort wheeled board and cup holder to eliminate the necessity of adapters. Overall, it's a great stroller, but it has some flaws however it comes with many other features to compensate for them.
