Wheels

The wheels are what propel the pram and give your child a safe ride. There are three wheel types - rubber, foam and EVA (harder plastic type). Each wheel type has pros and cons depending on how you intend to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are the most common and offer great grip on all surfaces. They can be punctured using a compressor for car tyres to over inflate them. This isn't a typical problem, and is usually caused by over-inflating the wheel. This type of wheel is usually used on all-terrain buggies as well as running buggies.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are stuffed with foam, making them lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock absorption capabilities and can feel more hard on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are often seen on prams rather than strollers and are generally the lowest cost option.

EVA or Ethylene vinyl acetate, is a plastic material that has some characteristics of rubber, and is also lighter. It can be used in place of rubber or PU for low maintenance and to reduce the overall weight of your pram.

It can be activated by pressing a lever, or button on the handlebars or by pressing down with your foot. The brakes should be simple to operate and should be locked as soon as you press them. Some pushchairs also have an in-wheel brake to provide stability and control.

Carrycot
