There are so many different comments here and as someone who sold these prams for so many years, I thought I’d comment but please feel free to ignore - unwanted advice can be so annoying! (For reference, I have the iCandy Peqch)
1. Not everyone switches out their travel system for a stroller. I never did for my first and I didn’t regret it at all. Yes, there many have been a bit of extra work getting it in and out of the car but it was so much nicer than a stroller.
2. The price really does matter for most. Though prams can be so expensive, you do get what you pay for. It’s also okay to spend a large amount if you can and want to and please don’t let anyone make you feel bad about that.
3. Always do a curb test with weight in the pram. Some brands, particularly Silvercross, are known for their lack of suspension and weight, making it very difficult to push the pram up a curb. If you end up having a C Section, you may find this extremely difficult and painful to do. Also, as baby gets bigger, it gets harder and most end up buying a stroller instead.
4. If you plan on having future children, this may be a factor in your decision. Some prams are made to turn into a double pram should you need, ie the iCandy Peach, Bugaboo donkey etc. Alongside this, it is worth spending the money on a pram if you’re going to reuse it for future kids. I’ve just had my second son 6 years after my first and I’m reusing my pram and it’s still absolutely perfect.
There are more points I would make but I feel this may unintentionally come across as patronising so I will stop there. Good luck with your choice🤍
