Best prams and pushchairs of 2025: From newborn and beyond with comfort, safety, and style in mind

The Nuna TRIV Next took home gold in the Mother&Baby Awards 2025 for Best Pushchair, and parents who’ve tried it aren’t surprised. It’s compact, easy to handle, and fits right into a busy lifestyle – whether that means city walks, quick car trips, or just trying to get out the door without a meltdown (yours or the baby’s).

One of the biggest wins? It’s lightweight without feeling flimsy. It folds with one hand, stands up on its own, and doesn’t require a wrestling match to fit into a car boot. Molly, a mum tester, put it together alone at 40 weeks pregnant, which tells you everything about how simple the setup is. "The seat positions and collapsible carrycot were easy to switch between, and everything felt high-quality. I especially love the stylish black colour scheme with brown leatherette accents on the handle and front bar," she shared.

Maneuverability is another big plus. One parent tester was surprised at how well it handled tight corners and crowded spaces, and even mentioned that her little one, who usually fights naps “drifted off quickly and comfortably” in the TRIV Next. That’s the kind of magic parents dream about.

And then there’s the small stuff that makes a big difference: The ring adaptor that folds with the frame (because nobody needs more loose parts to keep track of), the reversible seat, and the collapsible carrycot that stores easily when it’s not in use. Molly found it perfect for her post-birth recovery, saying, "I own two pushchairs, but I always grab this one as my go-to because it’s so much lighter."

Nuna’s all-season seat keeps your little one cosy in winter and cool in summer, with a rain cover for all-weather protection. Plus, the Dream Drape adds privacy for peaceful naps, all at no extra cost!

The Nuna TRIV Next keeps what parents loved about the original Nuna Triv but adds smart upgrades. It’s lighter, 2.5 inches wider for better stability, and folds 10% smaller for easier storage. Larger wheels improve handling, though it’s not as rugged as the MIXX Next or DEMI Grow. 

It’s not perfect, some testers felt the suspension could be better, especially on bumpier terrain. But for day-to-day life, the TRIV Next makes things just a little bit easier. And when you’re a parent, that’s worth its weight in gold.Read our full Nuna TRIV Next review.

The Graco Myavo Compact Stroller earned silver in the Mother&Baby Awards 2025 for Best Lightweight Buggy, impressing testers with its portability and ease of use. Perfect for families on the go, it features an automatic one-handed fold, making it easy to pack away, though some parents found it took a bit of practice to master.

At just £129.99, the Myavo offers great value if you're looking for an affordable option and don’t want to spend on premium lightweight, compact strollers like the Yoyo3 or Bugaboo Butterfly, which cost twice as much. It also features a three- or five-point harness system for added security and a detachable bumper bar for easy access.

Samantha Ball, our Features and Reviews Editor, shared her experience with the stroller, "She [her daughter] was happy to sit in it for long periods, which is rare, she usually tries to climb out! That alone speaks volumes about the comfort and design."

Samantha also praised the stroller’s lightweight frame, ideal handle height, and smooth performance in daily use. “From assembling the wheels to pushing it around, everything about this stroller has been a dream. We’ve taken it everywhere from the zoo to the beach to grassy fields, without any problems."

However, she did note that at times her daughter slid down slightly in the seat, though the harness kept her secure and comfortable. 

One standout feature is the 360-degree swivel wheels, making it easy to steer on various terrains like gravel, grass, and pavement. The stroller’s lightweight frame makes it easy to carry, but some parents pointed out that without the brake engaged, a strong gust of wind could move the stroller.

For active parents seeking a sturdy stroller that can handle all terrains, whether it’s a walk in the woods, navigating narrow streets, or strolling through the park or beach, the Thule Spring is worth considering. Built for movement, it's perfect for those in-and-out moments, from shopping for groceries to meeting up with friends.

The Thule Spring has quickly become a parent favourite for its lightweight design and exceptional manoeuvrability. Its three-wheeled structure delivers a smooth and effortless ride, whether on busy city streets, grassy parks, or sandy beaches. Katie, a mum tester, was particularly impressed with its ease of handling, "The three wheels make mobility great, whether you're pushing the stroller across the grass at the park or navigating narrow aisles in a shop." The foam-filled wheels absorb bumps, providing a smoother ride that’s perfect for naps.

The reclining seat is easy to adjust, helping you find the best position for your child. Parents also appreciated the extendable canopy, which offers excellent sun protection and can be adjusted for extra coverage when needed. Katie found this feature especially convenient, “If you're caught unprepared in the rain, you can simply unzip and extend the canopy further.”

Other practical features include a mesh panel for quick child monitoring, an adjustable handlebar for better posture (ideal for taller parents), and a foot lock system with a double-locking feature for added safety on inclines. The five-point harness ensures your child stays secure.

The one-hand fold is another standout feature, making it easy to store and transport. The stroller’s compact size fits neatly into car boots without taking up much space. Katie shared, “Its compact size is ideal – I can even fit it in the back of the car alongside my Golden Retriever with ease!”

As for downsides, Katie had few, noting only one minor preference, “The only thing I would have liked is for the bumper bar to be included, as many strollers come with one.”

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a parent favourite, offering a classic pram look with modern durability. Designed to grow with your family, it’s a versatile choice for first-time parents and those planning for more children.

With luxurious fabrics, leather detailing, and adjustable handles, it’s as stylish as it is practical. The spacious under-seat storage holds essentials, and the carrycot doubles as an overnight sleep solution when used with a stand. "This was extremely useful when staying away from home, as we didn’t have to worry about taking additional cots," shared mum tester Daniella.

The carrycot includes a mattress, breathable mesh, an extendable UPF 50+ canopy, and both bug and rain shields for comfort in all conditions. It’s also easy to wipe clean, making maintenance simple.

Built for everyday adventures, the Vista V2 handles various terrains effortlessly with large wheels, four-wheel suspension, and front wheel locks. "Really easy to push, and the larger wheels make bumpy terrain a breeze," noted one tester.

The secure five-point harness keeps little ones snug and upright. "The best part of this pram is the straps, four-way straps and a chest pad ensure my baby is securely held without slouching," said another parent.

Though wider and heavier than some pushchairs, this allows for extra space, durability, and comfort, ideal for parents with ample car boot space. "The Vista V2 is wider, which is perfect for me, but I appreciate not everyone will have a car boot large enough," Daniella added.

The pushchair is highly adaptable, compatible with various car seats using multiple adaptors and featuring accessories like the PiggyBack ride-along for older siblings. Plus, it’s customisable—"Wow, this pushchair is amazing! Not only does it look great, but you can choose from seven different colour hoods!"

Despite its higher price, the Vista V2’s premium build, practical features, and ability to adapt as your family grows make it a solid investment. It folds easily to stand alone for storage, and the bundle includes a storage bag. For parents seeking style, durability, and long-term use, the UPPAbaby Vista V2 is hard to beat.

The Silver Cross Tide bagged silver award in the Mother&Baby Awards 2024 for Best Pushchair, impressing parents with its versatility and high-quality design. This three-in-one travel system includes a stylish chassis, a carrycot for newborns, and a reversible, reclining pushchair seat, though some testers did find it to be on the pricier side.

One parent tester shared their experience, “While testing the Tide, we have been out to supermarkets, shopping centres, and on dog walks, and the wheels didn’t get stuck at all. It’s easy to steer and manoeuvre over both curbs and fields. It’s narrow enough that getting through a busy town or supermarket aisles isn’t an issue.”

Our parent testers praised the Silver Cross Tide for its balance of function, size, and comfort. Thoughtful features stood out, including the extendable hood with a ventilation panel and the magnetic-style buckle, which one reviewer found "so much easier than other major pram brands I have used."

Another favourite feature? The zip pocket on the back of the seat, which offers easy access to essentials. One tester noted, "I liked that there’s a zip pocket on the back of the pushchair seat, I found it a lot easier than having to keep bending down to the basket, and it was large enough to fit my phone and keys."

As expected from Silver Cross, the Tide is made from premium materials, providing a smooth and well-padded ride for little ones. Plus, it folds down compactly without needing to remove the seat, making it a great space-saver for busy parents. If we had to find a downside? More colour options would be a welcome addition. But really, we’re nitpicking!

Our parent testers found the Didofy Stargazer simple to assemble, taking just 10 minutes to attach the wheels and set the seat direction. With a sleek unisex grey design, the stroller looks stylish while feeling sturdy, yet it folds and unfolds effortlessly with one hand. It also boasts easy manoeuvrability, a UPF 50 hood, and a spacious shopping basket, perfect for busy parents on the go.

The one-hand fold is particularly useful when holding a child, and testers appreciated that it can also be pushed with one hand if needed. Mum tester Anna shared her thoughts, "I felt the Didofy Stargazer was an excellent stroller, especially coming as part of an 11-piece bundle. I think it is very reasonably priced. The one-handed fold and easy manoeuvrability were excellent features, and the fact that it is made out of recycled bottles is a great addition for those who are more eco-conscious."

The UPF 50 hood, featuring a peek-a-boo window, extends for full coverage, while the five-point harness is easily adjustable for a secure fit. Parents loved the large shopping basket, which provides plenty of space for essentials. However, some testers noted that the included rain cover doesn’t fully protect the feet of taller children.

While the Didofy Stargazer performs best on pavements and smooth grass, it can struggle with potholes and curbs. That said, little ones seemed comfortable in the seat, with one mum commenting,"She never fought us when we put her in, and she seemed to enjoy the higher-than-average seat."

The full 11-piece bundle offers great value, including a collapsible bassinet, an i-Size car seat with an ISOfix base (which is easy to install but lacks a swivel feature), and a stylish changing bag with ample pockets for extra storage.

If you're an active parent looking for a pram that fits easily into your busy lifestyle, the Out'n'About Nipper Sport v5 could be exactly what you need. It’s built with families who love the outdoors in mind, whether you're navigating muddy trails, cobbled streets, or rushing to catch the train.

It’s sturdy and versatile, perfect for off-road adventures or smooth jogs in the park. The large 16” air-filled tyres and suspension system ensure a comfortable ride for your little one, no matter the terrain.

One of our testers, Hatty, mentioned how impressed she was with how smooth the ride was for both her and her daughter, even on rougher surfaces. For parents who love to stay active, the Nipper Sport v5 might be exactly what you're looking for. It’s designed to make outings easier, with features like easy-to-remove wheels and a compact fold that make storage and transport a breeze.

Hatty shared her experience of setting it up, "It did take us about 45 minutes, and we initially had a small hiccup with the front brake pad. The instructions weren’t very clear, but a quick call to Out'n'About’s support team helped us sort it out." Once set up, the Nipper Sport v5 became a reliable companion for all sorts of outings, including a family holiday.

The pram has safety features like a five-point harness and a front-wheel brake, giving peace of mind when you’re on the go. Plus, the extendable sunshade with a UV visor and peekaboo window is a nice touch on sunny days.

Hatty explained why it was the right choice for her family, "We’re both big walkers, and I’m getting back into jogging after pregnancy. We wanted something that would let us share our love of exercise and the outdoors with our daughter while keeping her comfortable."

The spacious storage basket makes it easy to carry your essentials without adding bulk, and the quick-fold design is convenient for smaller car boots. While the fixed front wheel provides stability for jogging, it does make tight indoor turns a little trickier.

So, if you're looking for a pram that can keep up with your active lifestyle, the Nipper Sport v5 could be a good fit for you and your family.

The Joie Litetrax Pro is designed to make life easier for parents from day one, offering comfort and convenience all the way from birth to four years old. That’s why we’ve chosen it as the Best Pushchair with a Lie-Flat Position.

It's especially great if you're looking for a pram with a lie-flat position, which is essential for newborns.The fully reclining seat allows your baby to lie flat and sleep comfortably while you’re out and about. Plus, when you’re ready to hit the road, it easily converts into a travel system with Joie’s 0+ car seats, perfect for those busy days when you need to switch from car to pram quickly.

The all-wheel suspension ensures a smooth, bump-free ride, even if your little one decides to nap during the outing. When it comes to setup, the Litetrax Pro couldn’t be easier. Our parent tester, Jim, had no trouble getting it ready straight out of the box, no complicated instructions or fuss, just simple assembly.

Folding and storing the pram is a breeze too. At 9.71kg, it’s light enough to lift without straining, and there’s no need to remove the wheels for storage. It’s packed with handy features like an adjustable leg rest for your little one’s comfort, a large hood with a ventilated panel to keep them cool on warmer days, and a rain cover that will protect against the elements.

The swivel wheels make steering smooth and easy, and you can lock them for extra control when you’re on uneven surfaces. While it handles everyday paths just fine, it’s not as well-suited to rougher terrain. A standout feature is the canopy, which includes a neat ‘peekaboo’ flap that you can peel back to keep an eye on your baby as you walk, perfect for checking on them without interrupting your stroll.

For those who are always on the go, the one-hand fold function is a huge bonus, and the storage basket provides plenty of room for essentials like a changing kit or shopping bags. However, if you have a larger changing bag, it might not fit as comfortably, but it’s a minor inconvenience in the grand scheme of things.

When it comes to lightweight pushchairs, the Inglesina Quid² is a game changer, especially for travelling families. Weighing just 5.9kg, it's effortless to carry, easy to assemble, and perfect for air travel. For parents seeking a practical yet stylish option, the Quid² offers a luxurious feel at a mid-range price.

Our mum tester was impressed with the hassle-free assembly, saying, "pleasantly surprised that the only ‘building’ required was attaching the wheels."

With its one-handed fold, our parent testers found it incredibly convenient, allowing them to collapse the stroller while holding their baby. It also folds compactly, standing upright when stored.

Another plus point is that it's cabin-approved! One tester shared, "We were able to load it into the overhead locker on the plane with ease, meaning we didn't have the extra stress of waiting for it to be unloaded from the cargo hold once we landed."

The smooth manoeuvrability makes it easy to push over different terrains, ensuring a comfortable ride for little ones. "Our little one found it extremely comfortable, and at nap time, she quickly fell asleep once we reclined the pushchair using the simple release mechanism."

Parents also loved the extendable UPF 50+ canopy, offering great sun protection. However, one small drawback was the loud velcro on the ventilation window, which could potentially disturb a sleeping baby.

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a pushchair that’s designed to grow with your family, making it an ideal option for parents with more than one child. It can easily switch between a single stroller and a double stroller with just a few clicks, so if you’re expecting another little one, you won’t need to buy a whole new pram. With multiple configurations, it’s compatible with various car seats, making life easier for parents on the go.

One of the standout features is how easy it is to convert the Donkey 5 to a double stroller. Our tester, dad-of-two Joe, mentioned that "At no stage did I doubt the strength of any part, harness, wheels, frame, everything feels premium."

This pram is built to last and can handle the rough and tumble that comes with active kids, so you can feel confident that it will stand up to frequent use. If you’re using it in mono mode, you’ll appreciate the handy side basket. Joe pointed out that "the Donkey 5 offers a surprisingly handy basket that fits alongside the seat, making it easy to access items like dummies or bottles without rummaging below."

It’s these thoughtful details that make the pram practical for busy parents.When it comes to getting around, the Donkey 5 shines with its large wheels and high ground clearance, which make it perfect for both city streets and more rugged paths. Joe shared, "The sturdy, single-style wheels twist and turn over bumps and uneven terrain, allowing us to take the scenic route without worry."

Despite its larger size, it’s still easy to handle and manoeuvre, even in tight spots.There are plenty of benefits to the Donkey 5, like its height-adjustable handles, spacious design, and smooth steering. It’s also easy to fold down and feels really well-built.

However, it’s not without its downsides. The pram doesn’t fold very well with the seats attached, which could be a bit frustrating if you’re in a rush to store it. Plus, in double mode with the hoods on, it can be a tight squeeze to fit both seats. And, it doesn’t come with a footmuff, which is something you may need to purchase separately if you live in a colder climate.

The BABYZEN YOYO² is a firm favourite among celebrities and city-dwelling parents alike, thanks to its ultra-lightweight design (just 6.2kg), compact fold, and airline cabin-friendly size. It’s suitable from birth with the newborn pack or bassinet (both sold separately) or from six months as a stroller, offering versatility for growing families. Plus, with a variety of stylish colours and accessories, it delivers both practicality and aesthetic appeal.

Mother&Baby’s Online Editor, Maria Martin, tested the YOYO² with her almost 2-year-old daughter and found it easy to assemble, although she opted for a YouTube tutorial over the picture-only instructions. She noted that it "feels well-made" and praised its sturdy construction despite its lightweight frame. Maria highlighted its effortless maneuverability, thanks to BABYZEN’s patented Soft Drive technology, making it smooth to push even on uneven surfaces.

However, she pointed out that the stroller is better suited for city use rather than rough terrains, as the wheels aren’t built for off-road adventures.While the under-seat storage is compact, it’s ideal for small essentials like water bottles and snacks. Maria also loved the zipped back pocket, saying, "I found that I used the zipped back pocket a lot, and with a wide zip, it felt deeper than others I’ve used." 

One drawback for taller parents is the non-adjustable handlebar, which may require some to bend slightly while pushing. However, the stroller's quick fold, shoulder strap for easy carrying, and travel-friendly design make it an excellent choice for parents on the go.

The UPPAbaby Cruz V2 is known for its exceptionally smooth ride, thanks to large wheels, dual-action rear suspension, and front suspension. Despite its sturdy build, it folds down compactly for easy storage and transportation. While the carrycot or newborn insert is sold separately, making it an investment, its versatility and premium design make it a popular choice among parents.

Our parent testers loved its comfort and ease of use. The brake, handle, and suspension performed efficiently, and the one-step folding mechanism was praised for its simplicity. Hannah, one of our testers, appreciated the spacious basket, saying it was "big enough for a large change bag and several shopping bags", making outings more convenient.

Mum tester Debbie highlighted the extended sun canopy, noting that there’s “no need for an umbrella or sunglasses for the baby”. She also loved that it allows you to peek at your baby easily, has a stylish and high-end appearance, and even offers the option to add a ride-along board for an older sibling. She added, “The folding mechanism is one easy step, and the suspension absorbs some of the bumps when on rocky terrain!”

Many parents found the UPPAbaby Cruz V2 superior to other pushchairs. Kelly, one of our testers, shared, "I would choose this product above all others on the market as it offers lots of great features for a full-sized pushchair, such as a small compact size and large seat. I also like that it’s available in a variety of colours and that you can purchase a separate carrycot for newborns if needed."

Parents loved how easy this pram was to fold and its overall size. Assembly was straightforward, requiring only wheel attachment and cot expansion, and although there was some initial difficulty with unclear diagrams, the demo video on the Joolz website was very useful. "The demonstrator in the video managed to click components in place with ease, whereas I had to use some force. This may be because it was the first time setting up the cot." Our mum tester said. The pushchair arrives in fully recyclable packaging, with a fun cut-out template for kids to play with.

This chic pushchair comes in a range of stylish colours. “I loved the choice of colours available and chose sage green.” Commented our mum tester. We also love that the pram is made using sustainable fabrics (recycled plastic bottles). Safety features include a sturdy chassis, reflective wheel strips, a supportive bumper bar, and an extendable handlebar for users of different heights. Its puncture-proof XL wheels and 5-point safety harness ensure smooth navigation and secure rides over numerous terrains. The large sun hood offers UPF 50 protection and water resistance, and the rain cover provides full coverage. The washable fabrics and good ventilation make it practical for any hot weather.

Performance-wise, the Geo3 handles various terrains well, though it felt bumpier on uneven pavements. Its lightweight design allows easy manoeuvring and one-handed use. “It feels lightweight to push and easy to manoeuvre one-handed but also heavy enough for my baby to feel safe and secure in the cot.” Our mum tester commented. Folding and unfolding is effortless after a bit of practice, and the compact size makes it easy to store and transport. The spacious cot and adjustable seat height were appreciated, as was the large under-seat basket for shopping.

The Bugaboo Butterfly is a celebrity favourite and a top choice for parents seeking a cabin-approved pram that combines style and convenience. Perfect for city living and frequent travellers, this ultra-compact stroller arrives pre-assembled, requiring only the seat in-lay to be attached.

Suitable for children from six months, it can also accommodate newborns with the addition of adaptors and a compatible car seat (sold separately). With three chic colours available, it’s designed to maintain the sleek Bugaboo aesthetic on a stylish black chassis.

Our tester was impressed by the lightweight design, which makes it effortless to push and steer on various terrains. Despite its small wheels, the Butterfly performed well on bumpy surfaces like cobblestones and steps. The brake system, while requiring some force to engage, is centrally located and secure.

The standout feature of this stroller is its simple fold mechanism: a quick push of two buttons collapses it into an ultra-compact form, making it easy to store and perfect for fitting in aeroplane overhead lockers.The spacious seat (with a 56cm high backrest) offers comfort and durability, making the stroller suitable for children up to four years old.

The seat reclines comfortably, though not fully flat, which is perfect for naps. Our tester found the extended sun canopy with a mesh ventilation panel provided ample shade and improved visibility. Despite its compact size, the under-seat basket is surprisingly large, holding up to 8kg of essentials and accessible from both the front and back. “The flexible rear opening made it easy to pop things in and out,” said our tester.

Overall, the Bugaboo Butterfly is a fantastic option for parents who need a compact, lightweight stroller that doesn’t compromise on comfort or features.If you are looking for more features from birth, you might want to consider the Bugaboo Bee 5 or Bugaboo Dragonfly, both offering extra features and suitable for newborns.

The Graco EeZeFold is a lightweight, compact pushchair that has received praise for its portability and ease of use, making it perfect for families on the go. Our mum tester, Georgi, was very impressed with its overall quality, commenting, "Its promise of being perfect for ‘families on the go’ certainly rings true for our lifestyle as it’s so portable and easy to integrate into everyday chores and outings."

One of her favourite features is the generously sized shopping basket, which made trips to the shops much easier, and she noted that her daughter was always very comfortable in it. The 4-wheel suspension ensures a smooth ride for most terrains, providing stability and comfort. Georgi also highlighted the brake, saying it was very easy to engage with just the tip of her shoe, which made it convenient during quick stops.

The Graco EeZeFold stands out for its one-second, one-hand fold, making it incredibly portable, while additional features like a UPF 50+ canopy and a multi-position recline enhance its usability. Although some testers wished for an adjustable handlebar and noted that the shoulder pads sometimes slid down, Georgi believes the pushchair offers excellent value for its price. "I believe this is a marvellous pushchair which helps make trips out with a toddler just that little bit more manageable, even on a tough day," she added.

The Nuna MIXX Next and ARRA Next travel system took home Silver for Best Travel System at the Mother&Baby Awards 2025. Perfect for active families, it combines smooth all-wheel suspension with one-handed maneuverability, making it easy to navigate all kinds of terrain. The fully reclining seat offers a deep, restful sleep for your little one, although some testers mentioned that the recline options are limited. What really stands out, though, is its ability to fold down into a compact, easily storable size, ideal for those with smaller boot space.

Our parent testers were impressed with the overall height and stylish design of the Nuna MIXX Next. They particularly loved the phone pouch, which made it easy to keep essentials within reach. Switching between parent-facing and front-facing positions was effortless, and testers were pleased with the storage space and comfortable leather-look handles.

The Mamas & Papas Ocarro was shorlisted in Mother&Baby Awards 2022 for Best Pushchair, and it's easy to see why. Perfectly suited for families who enjoy exploring both urban and off-road environments, this all-terrain pushchair boasts a large, durable design that delivers both style and practicality. From handling bumpy country roads to providing a smooth city ride, the Ocarro stands out for its premium features and exceptional comfort.

Our mum tester, Nicola, praised its easy folding mechanism, noting that while it could likely be done one-handed, she hadn’t needed to test it. She found the Ocarro to be perfect for nursery drop-offs and pick-ups, and was impressed by its ability to fold down compactly, while still being spacious and comfortable enough for her baby to sleep soundly.

The Ocarro’s iconic one-hand fold was particularly appreciated by our testers, especially during rainy days when they had to quickly pack up. Reflective wheel rims allow for safe nighttime walks, and the tough tyres make it versatile for different terrains.

As a premium pushchair, it boasts superior features like the ergonomically-designed 5-point harness, providing both safety and comfort. Celia, another tester, noted that while the Ocarro is a full-size pram, it’s still easy to store due to its compact fold. She appreciated how the pram doesn’t feel cumbersome to carry when folded and found it easy to maneuver with its tight turning circle.

She also highlighted its modern design, with a quilted hood that adds to its aesthetic appeal.Though the Ocarro doesn't stand up easily when folded, it's otherwise highly functional.

Testers loved the extended hood, which offers ample shade, the zipper that allows for ventilation, and the flap for checking on the baby, providing peace of mind. Overall, the Ocarro offers a premium experience with exceptional maneuverability, comfort, and practicality, making it a fantastic choice for adventurous families.

The Silver Cross Clic stroller earned a Bronze Award in the Mother&Baby Awards 2022 for Best Lightweight Buggy/Stroller, thanks to its combination of practicality, comfort, and ease of use.

This sleek, compact stroller is ideal for parents who are always on the go, offering a lie-flat seat that’s suitable from birth to 22kg. It’s the perfect solution for families looking for a lightweight, easy-to-fold stroller that doesn’t sacrifice quality or functionality.

Our parent tester, Nikki, shared how this stroller has simplified her day-to-day life. She noted, “Getting our full pram in and out of the car is a hassle, and it’s also so bulky, so this lightweight stroller has really helped on both fronts!” She praised how compact the stroller is when folded down, making it easy to store in the car while leaving ample room for other items. The shoulder strap feature also impressed her, as it allowed her to carry the stroller without difficulty, freeing up her arms to manage other tasks.

Another tester, Ildiko, highlighted the stroller’s quick fold and removable handlebar, making it a great option for those who need a stroller that’s easy to pack away. She also appreciated the top window, which lets you check on your little one without disturbing their nap. “The stroller looks super comfortable,” she commented, “My LO sits happily in there and naps restfully. It uses hardly any space in the car, and being lightweight, it’s easy to pack away.”

The Silver Cross Clic stroller does have a few downsides. The pinch release to sit the baby back up requires both hands, making one-handed operation difficult. Some parents also found the stroller a bit wobbly at first, though it becomes more stable with use. The folding clip can be tricky to unlock with a baby in your arms, and the hood could be larger with an additional window for easier checking on your child.

This elegant pushchair offers a quick and easy fold, thanks to the handy release on the back of the seat, making it a breeze to store and go, whether the seat is forward or rear-facing.

We love the freestanding fold design, which makes it simple to lift and store. The pushchair handles beautifully, with Sweet StrideTM single front swivel wheels, all-wheel suspension, and one-touch brakes for a smooth ride.

Our mum tester, Charlotte, found it incredibly comfortable for her son, who had no trouble falling asleep during outings. She also praised the large, accessible basket and the pushchair's overall stylish design. Another tester, Emma, appreciated the stroller’s solid construction and its easy storage and carry handle, making it a great choice for long walks and shopping trips.

However, some testers noted that the Joie Versatrax can be a bit wide, making it tricky to manoeuvre through narrow doorways. The adjustable handlebar was also reported to feel a bit temperamental, though this didn’t detract much from the overall quality.
