How To Choose The Best Pushchairs And Car Seats

A pushchair can be a real lifesaver for busy parents. There are a myriad of types of pushchairs to pick from; pushchairs, prams, buggies and travel systems.

Travel systems are a fantastic choice for parents of newborns. They allow them to transfer their sleeping baby from the car to the pushchair without causing any disturbance to him. For a smooth transition, search for models with adaptors for cars that are compatible with car seats.

Hood that can be removed

This is the highest-rated stroller and car seat combo as per our expert testers. The versatile system is light and compact, making it easy to transport and storage. Its clever shade and adjustable head support make baby feel secure on the go. It's also suitable for infants rear-facing up to 35lbs and has four recline positions. It also has an unobtrusive canopy to keep your baby unperturbed in the car. It is also safe to use in any vehicle, and has an indicator built-in for easy installation.

The Doona Combo scored 91 points out of 100. The highest scores were given for comfort and ease of use. The car seat and base are easy to put together and remove and the latch base is equipped with green lights when it's correctly aligned. The stroller has two cup holders, and an ample basket for gear. Its handlebar folds flat and is easy to maneuver. Parents have several options when riding the stroller.

If your child is wearing a puffy winter coat The 7AM Enfant Cocoon (shop family-owned/shop Amazon) could be useful in keeping them warm while riding in the car seat. This "shower-cap" style cover prevents the snow and wind from blowing over the face and hands of your child in the car. The Cocoon is 100% safe for car seats and can be used with thin coats, provided that they don't have too much puff. It is not ideal for Uber and taxi rides, however, since it blocks the car seat's belt route.

Patagonia Hi Loft Down Hoody is a similar option for infants and children (shop family owned or shop Amazon). This jacket is insulated and constructed of super-warm 600-fill-power recycled down and comes with a hood for extra warmth in colder weather. While it is safe for the car seat when it is properly sized however, you'll need to compress all the puffs when tightening the harness straps.

Another option is the KidCozy II, which is a fleece blanket with comfortable neck holes as well as holes to accommodate the hands. It can be used on strollers, infant car seats, and baby carriers (facing either way) and fits infants through four years old.

Removal of mildew and mold

Mold is a fungus which is found on organic materials, usually in dark and damp areas. It can produce a strong musty smell, and is very difficult to get rid of once it has taken hold. If the mold isn't removed, it will continue to develop and spread. It is crucial to clean the area regularly. The first step is to clean any loose dirt and debris from the fabric surface. This can be done by hand or using a vacuum cleaner with an adaptable nozzle attachment. This is a great time to clean pockets, compartments and other areas that are difficult to reach.

Then, clean the entire surface using an unclean cloth or scrub brush. It is crucial to perform this outside in a well-ventilated area and preferably wearing a mask to avoid breathing in any mould spores. After cleaning the fabric you can spray it with a mildew-removal or a diluted solution of white vinegar. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant which will not harm the fabric or other materials inside your pushchair, is an excellent alternative. If you are not able to remove the mould from the surface of the fabric it might be necessary to dry and scrub the area using a dehumidifier.

Once the fabric has been cleaned, it is a good idea to let it dry completely before placing it in storage. Place the fabric in a bright area and spray it with anti-fungal spray. Milton makes a child-friendly version.

If you're having difficulty getting rid of stains that are difficult to remove or mould, try using MARBLELIFE(r) Mold and Mildew Stain Remover. This product is six times more effective than the brands you buy from stores that have been sitting on the shelves for months. Just-in-time production guarantees maximum effectiveness of this product when it is applied.

Cleaning

A car seat or a pushchair can be a messy item to keep clean, especially when it's used for outdoor adventures and has been dragged by food crumbs, mud, and other sand. To begin, clean off the dirt with crevice tools or brushes. You can also spray some Clorox Free and Clear Multi-Surface Spray Cleaner or a similar product and then employ a cloth to work it into any fabric parts such as the basket, the hood or seat.

Check the care instructions for any stains and marks to determine if it is possible to machine wash them. If not, a bucket of hot soapy water and gentle baby-friendly detergent should suffice. You can use a sponge to scrub off any stubborn marks and then leave to dry in the sun (which can also help lighten the stains).

If you have a pushchair with removable fabric parts, like seats or hoods, make sure to clean and dry them thoroughly.

The frame or chassis of your pushchair may need some more attention than the fabric parts. If you've noticed mould spores growing on the plastic, it's important to get rid of it as soon as possible to ensure that the spores don't be passed on to your child in their sleep. This can be done with water and vinegar, which breaks down bacteria and is then washed off. For hard-to-reach or more delicate areas, a toothbrush can aid in getting into tight spaces and corners.

For any stains that won't be able to go away Try adding a little of bicarbonate of soda to the wash or using baking soda to wash it off. This will not only neutralise odours, but also help remove stains that a previous wash may have missed.

Stores

A good pushchair will include plenty of outside and interior storage for all the essentials like snacks, drinks and toys. The main compartment of the pushchair should be big enough to accommodate a tablet or laptop. There should also be a smaller side compartment to store small items like keys, phones or other baby toys. Some pushchairs come with hidden storage underneath the seat, which is ideal to store items while the baby is asleep.

A travel system bundle is an excellent option for new parents as it lets you purchase car seats and strollers together in one purchase. The best travel systems will include compatible adaptors which enable the car seat to be fixed to the frame of the stroller. This makes it easy to move a sleeping baby from the vehicle to the pushchair without disturbing them.

In our tests, we found that the most reliable combinations have a straightforward connection process that feels like it connects itself. This is a big plus over combinations that require strap attachment in a subsequent step, which could lead to mistakes. In reality, those combinations with straps scored lower in our ease of use ratings.

Some pushchairs have an air-tight footmuff that is ideal for winter. However, it is crucial to make sure that the footmuff is compatible with a car seat. Also, make sure it comes with a hood which will shield your child from the elements.

There are many different pushchair accessories available like rain cover and footmuff. Some of these are essential and others are optional according to your requirements. A rain cover can protect your baby from the elements when you're out and out and about. A footmuff can keep your baby warm during the winter months.

New parents also love baskets, changing bags and cup holders. Selecting the right pushchair and accessories can make your life with a newborn or baby much easier, so be sure to explore all options.
