Buying a Travel Pushchair

When you are shopping for a travel pushchair take into consideration things like the fold, recline, storage space and canopy. You can also look for accessories such as a footmuff or coffee cup holder, as well as rain covers.

If you're frequently traveling pick a model that's cabin-approved and folds up compactly. Our parent tester says the Joie Tourist is a great choice for this. Its one-handed folding mechanism makes it easy to use whilst trying to keep your toddler in the right position.

Lightweight

A travel pushchair can fold easily and compactly to fit in luggage or the car's boot. They are designed for use with babies at birth and are often equipped with the option to attach a car seat to them but adaptors are required. Some are suitable for toddlers and are used for day trips or on holidays.

There are a myriad of travel pushchairs to choose from, so you need to choose the right one for your family. For instance, if you have an infant, you may prefer to get a buggy with a leg rest to ensure that the child's feet won't hang. When you are choosing a stroller it is crucial to consider how much storage space you'll need.

If you are an avid traveler and require a compact buggy to fit in your allowance for cabin baggage, choose a model which folds down into a size of 48cm x 43cm x 21.5cm. This is smaller than most hand luggage. A model with an intelligent, dynamic fold will be much easier to pack away, as it will be able to snap into itself as a paperback book.

Another alternative is to purchase a car seat bundle. This will save you time researching compatible components and money. Brand bundles typically include a pushchair along with car seats that are specifically designed to match in terms of style and comfort. They may also offer extras such as a parent organizer or cup holder, which can be a useful addition when traveling.

Certain brands also offer a variety of accessories, including a newborn bassinet and rain cover, which allows you to convert your travel pushchair into a double stroller buggy, or twin pushchair. These are particularly helpful when you have children who are older and want them to have a comfortable seat while traveling.

Easy to fold

Travel pushchairs should be easy to fold, particularly in small spaces like the cabin of an airplane or train. The Joie Pact Pro, which features a one-handed folding mechanism that our parents test found to be extremely easy to use, is an excellent example. This makes it perfect for parents who intend to take their baby along with them on flights and local excursions and day excursions.

Another good option is a travel system bundle that incorporates an baby car seat from the same brand. This way, you can be certain that the car seat is compatible with the pushchair you have chosen and will fit on the model you've selected for your baby. These types of bundles are usually cheaper than purchasing the items individually, but it's important to check that the items you're planning to purchase work together prior to making a purchase.

If you're planning to use your travel pushchair on rough terrain, look for something that has a solid base and wide wheels that can cope with bumps and lumps. Smaller wheels are harder to control on anything but smooth pavements. Reversible seats are beneficial, as your baby can face you to start with, and then turn around to see the world as they get older.

Depending on the time of year you're planning to travel, you'll also have to consider whether your stroller will offer the protection against weather that you require. A sunshade to protect your baby's skin from harmful UV rays and a rain cover that stops snow or water from entering the pushchair are essential features. You should buy a raincover specifically designed for your particular model of pushchair and not a generic one.

Additionally, a light and Compact pushchair design are essential specifications for any pushchair, but this is especially relevant to travel pushchairs which need to be able to fold away easily into a compact size. The Bugaboo Butterfly is one of the most compact pushchairs travel systems on the market. It can also be stored in the overhead luggage compartments (but not all) of certain airlines. Our testers with parents found it really comfortable to travel in with her toddler, with a large and well-constructed seat unit that reclines to provide a comfortable nap.

Easy to maneuver

It's crucial to be able fold and maneuver the pushchair swiftly and effortlessly when you're navigating busy train or bus stations with a sleeping child. This will allow you to get off and on the vehicle without disturbing your baby. Look for models with smooth swivel wheels that are on the front to make it easier to move and turn your buggy.

Travel pushchairs typically have smaller wheels to make them lighter and smaller. However If you're looking for a product to take on rough terrain or walk along the beach, opt for a model with larger, more robust wheels.

Certain brands and retailers offer travel systems that include the car seats, pushchairs travel systems and other items you might require. This is a great option if you know exactly what you need and don't have the time to spend hours searching for compatible parts. But, make sure the elements you're buying are compatible before purchasing a travel bundle. Some brands publish this information on the internet or you can contact the retailer for assistance.

If you are planning to put a pushchair that can travel in the boot of your car or in the overhead bin of an airplane, it should be small and foldable. It's also beneficial if the pushchair has a shoulder harness to allow you to hold it with one hand - especially if your child falls asleep!

When choosing a travel pushchair, consider the frequency you'll use it and the kind of terrain you'll cover. For example, some travel buggies are best suited for strolling around town or on smooth pavements and won't cope well off road or at the beach. If you are planning to travel off-road and require a more robust buggy, make sure it is equipped with a suspension and larger wheels that can handle more rough terrain.

If you intend to use it from the time of birth, then you should consider a stroller that comes with a newborn pack. The Babyzen Yoyo2 has a brilliant one-hand folding design and comes with a wide range of accessories including a bassinet for newborns as well as a rain cover and a really snuggly foot muff.

If you plan to use it for brief vacations and trips then you might want to choose a travel stroll equipped with a car seat adaptor that can be connected to the chassis. This will allow you to keep your child in their car seat for the majority of the journey. A lot of travel system bundles include a car seat that is already fitted however, you can assemble your own customised bundle if that's what you prefer.

Think about how often you'll use each item when choosing the travel set. It is also important to take into account the cost of a base for your car seat, as well as any adaptors you may require to connect it to a pushchair. These can be found on the internet or in stores - some brands offer bundles that include all of them, making it easy to create your ideal travel system!
