Choosing a Travel Pushchair

A travel pushchair is typically targeted at slightly older children (usually from around 6 months). They're small, light and great to take on vacation.

The car seat can be removed and attached with just one hand, making it ideal for parents on the move. Our tester found the Graco EeZeFold stroller light and compact is easy to fold and easily fits into car boots or overhead luggage compartments on planes.

Lightweight

There are many compact-fold pushchairs that are available. These buggys can be folded in a small space, and some of them can fit into an overhead baggage compartment when folded with the seats in. They can also be carried using a handle or shoulder strap, making them a good choice for a travel pushchair for a train, plane or bus. They are also great when you don't have enough space in your car boot or if you live in an apartment.

A travel system bundle is another option. It includes a main pushchair, a bassinet or carrycot, as well as the main pushchair. These are designed specifically for infants and newborns and allow you to keep the baby in a bassinet or carrycot until they're large enough to move to a regular seat in front of you. Some of these systems include an adaptor for cars that allows you to attach the car seat for your baby while you're traveling.

The stroller is the final kind of travel buggy. It is best suited for older toddlers or children who don't walk long distances. Some of these strollers can be used from birth, based on whether or not they feature a lie-flat feature.

It is extremely easy to maneuver and has a cushioned handlebar that can be adjusted to suit the height of taller adults. While it doesn't include a parent organizer or cup holder, it does include a large storage basket and storage pockets on the rear and is priced well.

Easy to fold

One of the most important aspects to consider when choosing a travel pushchair is how simple it will be to fold and manoeuvre. The ease with that a travel pushchair can fold and unfold is different significantly between models. Some require just one hand, while some require both hands or more effort. This is important because it could mean that the buggy will be more suitable for travel especially on planes.

Many compact folding pushchairs cater to older babies and toddlers that can sit up. However, an increasing number of pushchairs are suitable for infants. This is due to the fact that they come with a lie-flat seat or allow you to add a carrycot infants. Some are also travel system-compatible, meaning that they can take an infant car seat and connect to the chassis.

Having the right accessories for your pushchair can make life as a parent a whole much easier. For example, a footmuff will keep baby warm on chilly days and if it is convertible, it will also shield them from sun. Find out if the fabric of the pushchair are machine-washed. This will aid in cleaning.

It's not as compact as the YOYO and Munchkin Sparrow but it is great for rough terrain, narrow shopping aisles and for Cosatto Giggle Travel System with iSize car seat.

Easy to manoeuvre

Depending on where you live and your travel plans, you may require a pushchair to be able to handle a variety of terrains. Choose a stroller with massive and robust wheels that are able to easily navigate grass, pavements and sandy beaches. The wheels are typically constructed of PU or EVA, a material that's both robust and offers the feel of an air tyre but without the danger of punctures.

If you're looking for a simple to use pram that's easy to manoeuvre, choose one with a brake pedal which activates both rear wheels. It can be located placed on the left or right side of the chassis, or in the middle. It allows you to stop your pram even when you're busy or in the middle of a crowd. This feature was especially useful for parents out with older children.
