5 Best Single Pushchairs
It's worth investing into a pushchair that you will be happy using. It should also suit your lifestyle and the surroundings.
You should look for a pram that can be converted from a 'pramette or lie-flat stroller to a pushchair (suitable at birth) and then doubling or twin pushchairs as your family grows. It should also be simple to assemble and manoeuvre.
Cosatto Woosh XL
This compact pushchair is great for babies. Its lightweight but sturdy 7kg chassis can support up to 25kg, meaning that even larger toddlers can utilize it for a longer period of time. It is forward-facing and also has a reclining seat. It also comes with a UPF100+ sunshade hood for all-round protection from the sun. It is easy to open. Simply release the safety locks and pull it out. Then, you can easily close it by pressing down on the button located at the top of the handlebar. It folds down into a small, compact bundle which is an excellent storage solution. It is also extremely light and easy to manoeuvre.
This stroller is compatible with Cosatto Dock 0+ car seats as well as Woosh XL Carrycot. The adaptors for each piece allow you to easily transform the stroller into an entire travel system. The child will then be able to sit in the car seat or pushchair while you travel. This will decrease the frequency of pick-ups from the vehicle and wake ups, resulting in less disturbance to your child's sleep schedule.
The Woosh XL has some lovely features that make it stand out from the competition. It features an front wheel that can be locked into place, making it more maneuverable. It has a leatherette-covered thick handlebar, as well as a basket that folds. It is adorned with a variety of other features, including baby-friendly designs with heat-branded leatherette, contrast-curved seams, as well as nooks and crevices to explore.
The main drawback is that the size of the harness and seat are very limited, which means it may not be suitable for older children. Our test subject was her 3-year-old, and found that the straps on her shoulder didn't fit him. It was a shame as it could have been a fantastic option for him. It's still a stunning pushchair, however, and we like its style and the fact that it can be used with a car seat and carrycot. It comes with a fantastic four year guarantee, too.
