Best Pram

[Emmav2020]

What are the Best travel systems out there and do you use an Isofix?

Sorry I do not have any advice but commenting so I can get notifications for people who do as I'd like to know too ☺️❤️

We have I candy peach, got it for ds who's now 2.5yr still looks brand new and will use for new baby due in April. they are a little pricey but can get a good deal in the new year sales.
We then have a maxi cosi car seat that u put on a ISO fix base. For safety I would always try and have an iso fix

Best pram totally depends on your lifestyle...

Urban or rural?
Lots of walking? Public transport? Drive everywhere?
Big house/garage to wheel pram into? Or top floor flat with no lift? I.e. is foldability/weight an important consideration?
Large car boot, small boot or no car?
Do you want a proper carrycot or a cocoon type thing? Or just a pushchair that can lie flat?
Will you want to clip the car seat onto the chassis? (We don’t drive so had almost no use for a car seat, but it did come in handy a couple of times to be able to do this so we could visit in-laws by train and put the seat into their car.)

We had a secondhand Oyster travel system, which was great. Then a very old Maclaren buggy for nursery runs.

Btw Isofix isn’t necessarily safer, but is probably simpler.

You need to consider your lifestyle and what you actually need the pram/travel system to do.

We have a YoYo which works perfectly for city living, air travel (in previous times!) and a toddler that wants to swap between walking and sitting. We also have an icandy peach which looks lovely and has a nice big basket but the 2 part fold is a pain, it doesn’t have tires so is a bit useless off-road and DD outgrew the seat very early compared to the YoYo. I wouldn’t buy the peach again.

Isofix isn’t actually any safer, it just eliminates the chance of fitting it incorrectly but infant carriers are very simple to fit with a seatbelt so I’m not sure you could actually get it wrong (group 1 seats are a different story though!). Non isofix is easier to transfer between cars as it doesn’t require the huge base, but then you might not really need to do that, again it’s lifestyle dependent. Remember that small babies aren’t supposed to spend too long in a car seat either so if you follow those guidelines you might not have much need to use the pram as a travel system.

Thanks for all the replies. I would he looking at getting one that easily to put together when out and about, good for going on walks and shopping. Nothing to big and chunky. I have an 11 year old so its been a while since i looked at prams. Also i remember carrying the car seat and moving that about killed my back x
