It all depends on what you are after and what is important to you.
A pram for me had to be able to have a toddler seat as I planned on 2 close together. I had a few friends with Phil and Teds and they loved it but didn't like where break was so in the end I got the Phil and Ted Dash as easier break to use and have loved it!
Do you want 3 or 4 wheel?
Do you want movable handle? Do you want toddler seat easy to be added?
Do you want air in tyers or solid?
Best thing to do is go to a big baby store and drive around the prams see how compact the fold and check will fit in boot of your car!!!
Car seat I got safe and sound meridian as it has great safety ratings and is birth to 18kg.
Thanks feeb, I hadn't even thought of moveable/adjustable height handles, that is a must have for both dh and I use comfortably... and checking the boot of the car... priceless advice!
When we looked at prams, it was important for us to get one that could be used from newborn. We had a look at lots, most of them can be used for newborns but I wanted one that had a bassinet because some of the prams just "drop back" for newborns and don't look very comfy!
Same with our car seat, since we had decided not to use a capsule, I wanted a car seat that was newborn friendly, lots of padding and would last up to 18kg.
It really pays to do your research - I learned lots of things like many of the baby shops have websites and on the website things are cheaper. If you take the web price into the shop then they usually price match. Yay!
