Buying guides

We do not rate how a pushchair feels to push — plenty of sites do that well. These guides rank on the things that have a factual answer: what it measures folded, what it weighs, how it scored in an independent crash test, and whether it goes in your car.

• 
  Measured Best pushchairs for your car boot

  48 pushchairs measured folded and checked against 69 real boots. Pick your car and see which ones fit, with the clearance in centimetres.

• 
  Measured Best travel pushchairs

  Ranked by weight and folded size, with each one checked against the cabin allowances people actually hit at the gate.

• 
  Crash tested Best car seats by crash test result

  85 seats carrying published ADAC grades: safety, handling, ergonomics and harmful substances. Filter by your child's height.
