Cheap Pushchairs

When you are looking for the perfect pushchair, there are many things to take into consideration. What works for your outdoor lifestyle may not be suitable for city life, and a pushchair that glides effortlessly across shiny floors may be unable to handle rough dirt.

If you're planning to have a baby number two, an infant travel system that can be converted into twin pushchairs is the best choice. These are designed to grow with your bambino and are typically used from birth to six months.

iCandy Peach

This is a favourite of celebrity moms, and it offers plenty of functions at a fair price. It is suitable from birth due to the large carrycot. It can also be transformed into a twin pushchair with innovative adapters. Its modern premium knitted jersey fabrics are durable and soft, with a refined feel. A large canopy and multi-position recliner seat provide baby with maximum comfort, while a practical zip pocket can be used to store the essentials. Elevators raise the seat making it a highchair-on-the-go that allows parents to take their roll-ups to eat in restaurants. It also comes with a fashionable footmuff and changing bag for an all-in-one travel system.

The Peach 7's Sivio Aluminum Frame Pushchair: Lightweight Recline Smart Design chassis is lighter than most pushchairs. Its puncture-proof polyurethane tires are designed to handle any terrain from slick surfaces and sports grounds to parkland and forest paths that are muddy. The suspension has been softer for comfort, both for the child and the parent. The front wheels can be swiveled to make it easier to turn corners even with just one hand. Its compact footprint and tight turning circle mean it is able to easily navigate narrow aisles in shops and hallways which makes it ideal for city living.

This version is available in a range of colours, including iCandy Black Special Edition with black chassis and fabrics for a monochrome style. It comes with a built-in cup holder and is compatible with the iCandy Cuddler, iCandy Rocker and the iCandy Sidekick Stroller. It can be purchased directly from iCandy for PS1,149, or from third-party retailers, such as Babythingz.

Babyzen YOYO2

The Babyzen YOYO2 pram is a lightweight stylish, elegant and user-friendly pram. This is the ideal stroller if you are a city dweller and take the tube often and want to fold the pushchair and store it in your trunk while driving, or you're looking for a lightweight stroller for days out just you and your baby. It's also green.

The YOYO 2 is priced at PS399 for the chassis and the 6+ color pack however, add the infant bassinet or a branded car seat (sold separately) and you'll pay close to PS800 for the complete travel system. It's similar to other 'urban pushchairs,' such as the Bugaboo Bee 6

YOYO 2 folds down to 52 x 44 x 18 or 20 173 x 7.1 in. It is compatible with allowances for cabin baggage that are set by the majority of airlines. It is also one of the few double strollers that can be used from birth, using either the bassinet for newborns and/or the newborn fabric pack.

It comes with small wheels that perform best on grass and pavements but can also be used on bumpier ground - though adventurous families might want to look for something with all-terrain wheels. It also has a neat trick - the handle bar can be put away, allowing you to move your YOYO 2 up to the table in a restaurant and then sit down.

The YOYO 2 with its low turn ratio, is among the strollers that is easy to navigate. However, it does require two hands to fold and unfold. It is also not able to be pulled on its wheels when folded, like a handful of other umbrella pushchairs pushchairs.

My Babiie

The My Babiie travel system is a great choice when you're seeking a complete system. This set is designed to be used right from birth and comes with a car seat, carrycot and a graco Breaze Lite2 pushchair with raincover - fashionable seat all in one. This car seat is a fantastic choice for newborns or toddlers because of its big base and i-Size compatibility. It's also adjustable, allowing your child to nap while on the move. It also comes with a massive adjustable hood that can shield your child from sun.

The My Babiie MB250 stroller is easy to use and can be folded using the carrycot, a carrier or seat that is attached. It's a one-handed fold and is light, making it easy to maneuver. It is also compact and fits into most small cars. It comes with several accessories such as a changing bag as well as a rain cover and a coffee holder.

My Babiie has a good reputation for their stylish products, which were designed in collaboration with celebrity mums. The Belgravia Rose Gold and Black travel system is an excellent example, as it was designed in collaboration with Christina Milian. Even if celebrity collaborations aren't your style, this is an all-rounder that has many features to keep your family happy.

This My Babiie MB500 iSize Spin car seat has been tested according to the most stringent standards. It is suitable for infants who are born up to 4 years. ISOFIX connectors can be used to attach it to the chassis. It's also compatible with My Babiie Explorer MB52, which is available with three trendy fabrics, comes with an adjustable seat, a newborn insert, and a large hood. If you're ready for your child from the car seat to the stroller, the seat simply clicks onto the chassis with two buttons on either side.

Bugaboo Bee

Modern, practical and affordable The Bugaboo Bee is one of the best pushchairs on the market. It's been around since 2007 and recently went through an overhaul with the new Bee 6. The most notable differences between the previous models are the adjustable backrest height, the larger sun canopy and the circular joint system that makes it easier to move and face your seat towards or away from you.

The Bee 6 is also a lot narrower, which makes it great to squeeze into public transport and navigating those tricky city streets. Its iconic yellow color can make it easier for people to see you on the street and for Deliveroo's cyclists see you while they whiz down the street.

It's a pleasure to drive with a smooth steering and a smooth suspension. I also liked the large and deep basket which is perfect for grocery trips and that it can be easily accessible whether the seat is facing you or away.

The Bee's strength and durability is another factor that impressed me. The handle bar is very comfortable to hold and the buggy is just a pleasure to use. It's clear that this model was designed to last for a long time.

Of course all of this isn't inexpensively - the Bee costs PS1000 at retail price, but it's much cheaper than other strollers of the highest quality. Considering its capabilities and build quality I believe it's worth the money. Especially for those who are not as concerned with style as they are about function.

Baby Jogger Urban Glide Double

The Baby Jogger Urban Glide 2 Double is a jogger that has stadium-style seating for two children. It can be used with a variety of brands and can fit one car seat. It is more expensive than the other strollers on this list, however, it gets a high score for quality and has a very large storage basket. It also comes with a bumper bar that could be used to store toys or create a relaxing spot for kids.

This stroller has a sleek design and is easy to push. The three huge wheels are equipped with air-filled tires. These make jogging or navigating rough terrain easy. It's also extremely lightweight and features a great ergonomic handlebar and foot brake and a hand brake that can be pushed or squeezed. The only drawbacks to this bike are that it isn't reclined and the canopy does not cover the entire seat.

Another benefit of this stroller is that it can be transformed into an infant stroller by incorporating a bassinet. It also has a massive shopping basket that is perfect for picking up items to take home on your way back. It is very robust and can be used from the start as an walking jogging walker.

It is a bit long and heavy to pass through narrow doors or the car boot of a small size and is therefore best suited for families with a large driveway or garage, and who aren't afraid to carry it around. The cost could be a hindrance for some. It is not compatible with infant car seats which means you'll need to purchase a bassinet separately for the first 8 months.
