Top 5 Folding Strollers

Strollers are essential equipment for babies that can provide comfort and value during the precious first years of a child. It's also a great investment that will last parents through many babies.

When deciding on the best stroller, you should consider how easy it is to fold. Modern strollers can fold by a single tug, however the process differs between brands.

Easy to fold

If you're expecting a child and are looking for a running pushchair that's easy to fold and put away then look no further than the UPPAbaby G-Luxe. It's a compact pushchair with a one-hand folding system. It's also light and can easily fit into the boot of your car.

The stroller's one-hand folding mechanism can be controlled by the lever on the handle as well as an additional ring in the rear. To ensure a smooth one-hand fold, the handle and ring have to be precisely timed. It is essential to fold most strollers prior to entering security. Always read the directions that come with your model for additional details. You may also need to hand-check large strollers at some airports. If this is the case, it is recommended to pack a carry-on bag to protect your stroller while traveling.

Easy to store

The Nuna Baby Triv is a lightweight, premium model that takes up less room but is as luxurious as larger models. It's not the smallest or lightest pram on our list, but it's easy to fold and maneuver and has loads of features you might expect to find only in higher-end strollers.

It's also designed to take the form of a custom carrycot (which can be used from birth) or a baby's moses bag that allows you to turn it into an entire travel system and use it for a longer time than the other smaller prams will allow. It's also a breeze on all terrains and has a lot of storage space.

UPPAbaby has always been known for its large shopping baskets, but with the G-Luxe they've managed to squeeze this functionality into a smaller size. The only problem is that it's difficult to fold due to the finicky handle/ring combo which needs to be timed perfectly. It's still a great option but, in particular, because it's easily able to convert into a twin stroller pushchair with the YOYO Connect seat.

Easy to Manoeuvre

Silver Cross's pram isn't the lightest or smallest but it's quite easy for parents to steer. It's ideal for families that are growing because it can be used from birth to toddler, with a newborn bassinet, a pack or a car seat. It even has buggy boards for older children. It's also smooth over most terrains, and is more robust than many lighter compact prams. This premium pram set is loved by A-list celebrities and has numerous features that are suitable for parents. It's a joy to drive and is incredibly maneuverable when you turn on the front locking wheels that swivel. It's also extremely easy to fold.

Easy to clean

If you've got a pram that has been through a lot of activity, the occasional deep clean is vital. A dirty buggy is not just unhygienic to your baby but it could also harbor germs. If you're thinking of using your pram for more children or selling it later on, a clean stroller will look its best for as long as it is possible.

Most prams will have a manual that provides cleaning guidelines, often accompanied by specific directions for washing and maintenance of various components. If yours does not provide such a guideline, you can look online for recommendations.

The first step in cleaning a pram is usually to remove all fabric components (seat and canopy, baskets, and so on) and wash them as suggested by the manufacturer. Washing these items in soapy, warm water is important since cold or hot water could damage the fabric. It is essential to let the fabric completely dry before reattaching it.

It is important to inspect your pushchair regularly for signs of wear and loose screws. This will stop the pram from becoming unstable or damaged which could create a safety risk for your child. A quick check of the locking mechanisms, brakes and harness will ensure that they're well-maintained and in good working order. It's also a good idea to occasionally give your frame and wheels a light spray of lubricant to ensure they're operating smoothly.

You should also think about investing in an infant liner or pram cover, which will add an additional layer of protection to your stroller from stains and spills. They can be easily cleaned and removed, ensuring that your stroller is in good prams condition for a longer period of time. You can also update your stroller with new seats, wheels, or sun canopy to refresh it and match it to your little one's outfit. You can also make use of a touch-up pen to cover any scratches or scrapes in the frame of your stroller, particularly prams that are black, which exhibit dirt very quickly.
