Whether you’re expecting a baby or are planning to start your pregnancy journey in the near future, you’re likely to want to buy products that are the best quality for you and your baby. With everything else that you will have going on whilst looking after your newborn (including sleepless nights and days), you will want everything else to run as smoothly as they possibly can. Sure, not everything will go as it’s expected to, but just having a few elements in your day that you know you can rely upon to go well and deliver every time will really help you to have a good routine.
One key item that you will really want to deliver every time you go to use it is your stroller. A stroller, buggy, or pram is a moveable chair that you can place your baby in to transport them around whilst walking. Although you can carry them, you will likely want to give your back a break every now and so a stroller will be the perfect solution.
But when it comes to buying one, you may feel overwhelmed with the wide range of options that are available within the market. Not only do they look very different from one another, but they also have different features on them too. It is really important that you match the stroller that you end up going for with the preferences that you have. This doesn’t just mean preferences in terms of aesthetics, but also functionality too.
Determining that you will be going out a lot with your baby on long trips, as opposed to short trips every so often is just one of the many crucial points that will have to be decided upon prior to purchasing a stroller. Each one will mean that you will need a slightly different element when it comes to your ideal stroller. To help you have a think about what specific features you will need to have on yours, listed below are the key elements that are featured on strollers.
The handlebar
Having a handle that best suits you is really important when choosing your ideal baby stroller. Firstly, some have straight bars whilst others have to separate bars on either side. You will want to try out each to determine which one you feel suits you more and is more comfortable. After all, you can be pushing these things around for hours on end so making sure that you are happy with it is really important.
Another thing that you will want to make sure of is that these handles can also be adjusted. This is not only necessary for you, but also for your partner. The bars will need to be adjusted to account for height differences. If you’re taller you can raise them up and vice versa.
This will not only be more comfortable for you, but it will also give you greater control of the stroller. Some strollers may only have a fixed position for their handlebars. Whilst this may be suitable for parents of an average height, for others this may not work. So going into the store and trying out different heights and so on will be an important consideration in your search.
Type of seat
Another element that is something you will need to consider is whether or not you would like a reversible seat. Normally, a standard stroller will have a fixed chair position. This can either look straight out or look towards you (this is another thing you will want to consider).
Some believe that looking straight out gives your baby a better view of the world as they can look at what’s happening all around them. However, other parents think that it’s better for their baby to look towards them so that they can keep an eye on them and make sure they’re okay.
To overcome this issue, some companies started to make seats that could be reversed in either direction. Having this ability meant that parents didn’t have to choose between either option and instead could have the best of both worlds, but this option usually comes with a higher price. Due to this, you’ll want to determine whether this option is a necessity for you before making your purchase.
