What to Look For in an All-Terrain Pram

If you love going out in the great outdoors, you'll need a stroller that can be able to handle the rough terrain. The best all-terrain strollers come with large wheels that are filled with air and spring suspension for a comfortable ride.

They typically fold larger and heavier than standard strollers. Some are compatible with infant car seats but make sure to consult your pediatrician first. Some have a world-facing seat that reclines fully flat so you can use them from the time of birth.

All-terrain strollers are designed to be as comfortable as is possible for both the child as well as the parent. To make sure that this happens you'll have to make sure the suspension is in good condition, and that there's plenty of room in the seat to accommodate a huge cushion. You'll want to make sure the seat reclines flat and that your child's feet are in the air. This should provide them with extra comfort during the long climb along a steep hill and stop them from getting cold.

Also, make sure that the all-terrain stroller you buy has a canopy. You don't want your child to burn during a hike. It is a good idea to find an umbrella that has a wide opening and can be adjusted to suit your requirements, or can be removed to offer some protection in specific weather conditions. Your all-terrain stroller should have a five-point safety harness to ensure the child's safety and keep them from falling.

You should also choose an infant stroller with plenty of storage. Most have a large basket of shopping under the seat. Some have mesh pockets on the both the back and front. They are an excellent place to store things like mobile phones and keys.

All-terrain prams can be used to walk, hike and even light jogging. (Check the product guidelines to find out if this is recommended).

Certain models come with additional features, such as changing rooms or a newborn cocoon that can be used from the time of birth. These may add to the cost of a pushchair, but they can be worth the cost for active families.

Suspension

To ensure a smooth ride, an excellent suspension system is a must in any stroller with all-terrain capabilities. A well-padded chair is also essential, particularly if you are planning to take your child on a variety of outdoor adventures.

If you want to maximize your space while keeping your family moving and active, an all-terrain stroller with an ultra-light and compact frame is an excellent option.

The Mamas And Papas Ocarro All Terrain Pushchair SALE and Papas OCarro is another excellent alternative. It's available as one pushchair, or in a six-piece bundle that includes the chassis, seat unit and adaptors. (Carry cot is sold separately).

The most important feature of any all-terrain pram is its suspension system. It is essential to absorb bumps and ensuring a smooth ride for your baby. Additionally the suspension system should be easily adjustable to allow you to optimize it for various terrains and weather conditions. The suspension system on the Bugaboo 5 can be adjusted by altering the air pressure inside the tyres depending on what surface you're riding on and the level of roughness of the terrain. The more air you pump the tyres, the more they will absorb bumps, resulting in an easier ride for your child.

All-terrain pushchairs and prams are the ideal choice if you love long, adventurous walks with your child. These models feature more advanced suspension and are designed to handle a variety of terrains, from paved paths through the countryside and woodlands to urban streets and steep slopes.

A front wheel with a lock can be useful for controlling manoeuvrability. It's particularly beneficial if you plan to use the buggy off-road. Find wheels with air-filled tyres, or puncture-proof options that can handle rough terrain. This will let you avoid carrying an extra tire. Certain models also have hand brakes that assist in controlling the speed of the buggy as it travels up and down hills and over different surfaces.

There are also some models that are travel system compatible so you can use them from the beginning with a carrycot, a bassinet with a flat bottom, or a baby car seat (carrier sold separately). This will help you save money and ease your burden since you can switch between your car and the stroller when you go on a walk.

One of our mom testers was impressed by the one-handed folding feature on this model.
