Another excellent feature of the Maclaren is its quick and easy fold. It's a little slower than the norm in this category however, it takes only one hand to open and close. When closed, it's a compact pram that easily fits into tight spaces.

This model is not recommended for babies. However it is suitable for children aged 3 months or older. You can buy one of Maclaren’s lighter umbrella strollers if you require an infant stroller at this point. It's an excellent choice for older children and babies, as they will be content to sleep on the seat, whether at home or when traveling.

The M&P Pramette is an excellent pram/pushchair combination for first-time parents or families with two children. It comes with a carrycot approved for sleep at night and easily converts into a double pushchair at any moment. It's not the most affordable option, but its luxurious design and features make it well worth the investment.

Claire found it easy to maneuver this pram over various terrains, and in narrow areas such as narrow aisles in store. The swivel wheels let her steer the pram with precision. Moreover, its compact fold size makes it easy to store at home. The air-filled tires are large enough to provide an enjoyable ride and are also able to handle off-road surfaces.

The reversible model is a great feature, as it allows you to change the direction in which the child faces. The reclining seat gives both back and head support which means your child can relax in their carrycot or seat.

4. Thule Shine

Thule is a name well-known for its stylish and practical products and the Shine stroller is no exception. It's one of the lightest strollers on the market, and it feels sturdy and robust to hold, despite its sleek design. It's also extremely versatile that it can be used as a bassinet, or Newborn Inlay from birth, as well as an Maxi Cosi car adapter.

In contrast to other lightweight strollers like the Shine will not let you down in terms of cargo storage either. The 22-pound capacity of the Shine allows you to carry everything you need for an excursion without worrying about leaving anything behind.

The wheels are also very easy to attach to the frame. They clip on straight from the box. The bassinet is also simple to put together and has handles similar to those found on a Moses basket. When you're done the pram folds to a neat and compact size, allowing you to fit it in the smallest of cars.

Thule's air purifier canopy is a highlight as well, with an inbuilt fan that purifies the air you breathe to eliminate pollen, bacteria, viruses, and other nasty nuisances. The company claims it can clean up 150 liters of air every minute and can connect to an app that will show your local air quality.

The only downside is the price. Although it's less expensive than other 2 in 1 prams it still costs more than PS1,000 for the full kit. It's even more difficult to accept when there are less expensive alternatives, such as the Thule spring which is smaller and lighter.

The durability of Thule's strollers is legendary and I have seen them tested at the Thule Hillerstop headquarters in Sweden. They drop prams from high places and then slam them down slopes, and then take them on bumpy tracks in the snow to test their performance and strength. They look fantastic!
