Easy to Manoeuvre

If you're looking for a light pushchair that can be used in both rural and urban environments you should consider the iCandy core. It has large foam-filled tyres that are able to take on any terrain (according to MFM reviewer Tara the model performs well on open forest trails, gravel tracks and market town cobbles) as well as child-friendly features such as a reclining seat, a movable handlebar as well as a large basket and a one-handed fold. MFM reviewer Becky says that the handbrake is in a good position to prevent kicking it by accident. This is a great thing to consider if you are travelling with a child who will be pushing the car.
Comfortable for your baby
The most effective pushchairs have a seat unit which is spacious, padded and ventilated to ensure the comfort of your infant or toddler. The seat must be able to recline so that your child can view the world around them and sit up. Most likely, they'll come with an adjustable leg rest as well as a strap clasps, ensuring that you can choose the most comfortable position for your little one.
You can also buy all-terrain pushchairs designed for off-road walking. These pushchairs have big tires that are puncture-proof and have excellent suspension.
