Alternatively, look for a buggy that has a carrycot option, which some of our compact selections offer.Īdjustability – Many compact strollers don’t offer that much in terms of adjustability – no extendable handle, seat can’t be parent-facing, it can’t lie flat, and so on. We’d strongly recommend that if you’re using the pushchair frequently, or as your main buggy from birth, that you ensure you choose one that lies completely flat. Seat height adjustment – Pushchairs can be categorised as lie-flat even if they’re not completely flat – they can still lie at 150° angle rather than a flat 180°. Others are more suited for babies over 6 months and toddlers. This gives you all the flexibility of a chunkier pushchair without the bulk. Some may also be travel system compatible, meaning you can attach an infant car seat. Identifying what your priority is will make choosing much easier.Īge suitability – Some compact folding pushchairs are suitable from birth, either offering a lie-flat seat recline or the option to buy an additional carrycot. Others are more substantial as they combine a comparatively compact fold with all the versatility of a full-sized travel system and are designed for everyday use with a newborn.
