By the eight month of pregnancy, the majority of parents-to-be have at least made the decision about their first pushchair even if they haven’t bought it yet. Whether it’s going to be a treat from the grandparents or just a form of practical travel that suits your lifestyle, there is an incredible range of designs to choose from. And that’s before you’ve got into debates about travel systems versus fully-reclining buggies, ‘optional matching accessories’ and ‘lockable swivel wheels’. Yes, it can be a bit like choosing between a Mini and Porsche!

Whether you are going for the luxury end of the market or something of a bargain, EU regulations ensure that your pushchair will be safe for your baby. After that, paying a little more for softer seating, adjustable handlebars to suit mum’s and dad’s height, and design extras are completely up to you.

And though most from-birth pushchairs are fairly big, many are adapatable so that as your baby grows you don’t need to lug around the cot, car seat and other extras that the smallest person in the house can’t live without.

It can be a mind-boggling experience, so to give you a starting point, we’ve selected a diverse range of options that show just what kinds of features to look for when you finally make that purchase!
