A quality pushchair can last for several years – therefore it’s worth investing in a model that you’ll be happy to use. It should also be a good fit for your lifestyle and the environment.
You should look for an infant stroller that can be transformed from a ‘pramette, or lie-flat stroller, to a pushchair (suitable at birth) and then twin pushchairs or double pushchairs as your family grows. It should also be simple to assemble and move.
Cosatto Woosh XL
This is a compact, from-birth pushchair that has a lot of benefits for babies. The sturdy, yet Amababy Lightweight Compact Travel Stroller Brown – Toddlers 7kg chassis can hold up to 25kg. This means that even bigger toddlers can use the pushchair for longer. It is forward-facing, and comes with a reclining chair. It comes with a UPF100+ hood to keep you safe from the sun.

It is a very simple to convert into a full travel system by attaching the appropriate adaptors for each of these items. The child will then be able to sit in the car seat or pushchair while you enjoy a connected journey. This will decrease the number and frequency of vehicle pick ups and wake-ups, resulting less disturbance to your child’s sleep routines.

Its main drawback is that the size of the seat and harness are very limited, which means it might not be suitable for older children. Our tester tried it with her 3-year-old son and discovered that the shoulder straps did not fit the child. This was a shame that it wouldn’t have been a fantastic option for him. It’s still a beautiful pushchair. We like the style and that it can accommodate a car seat or carrycot. It also comes with a 4-year warranty.

It’s smooth on pavements, and the suspension provides an excellent, cushioned ride.
