Choosing the right baby stroller is an important decision. A great baby stroller combines convenience and safety features with a streamlined design to provide easy manoeuvrability, comfort for your little one, and peace of mind for you. Best Buy carries a wide range of strollers from top brands, such as guzzie + Guss, Mountain Buggy, and phil&teds. To help you make the right decision, there are a few important things you’ll want to keep in mind.It’s important that your stroller keeps your precious cargo securely seated and safely insulated, so look for one with a multiple-point harness, and ample side and seat padding over a durable frame. Quick response brakes and front wheel locks prevent runaway rolling, while bumper bars and slide guards provide added reinforcement for keeping baby secure during travel.A compact, lightweight stroller design is crucial for manoeuvrability and easy storage. Front swivel wheels for simple steering in tight places and one-hand folding systems for convenient portability are modern features made for busy urban parents.
Changeable canopies and removable elements like food trays, bottle holders, and storm covers let mom and dad adjust strollers for weather and occasion. Convert your stroller into a carrier bassinet. Got a second little one? Enjoy the convenience of separate seat attachments that let you transport 2 in 1.There are several different types of baby strollers out there, so it’s important to figure out which type makes the most sense for you.Full-sized standard strollers and baby travel systems are great for newborns and can adapt well to your growing baby’s needs. These full-featured styles both sport reclining seats, lots of storage space, and a large canopy to protect your baby from the elements. Travel systems, however, come with a compatible car seat designed to work seamlessly with the stroller.Double strollers are a convenient option for parents with 2 young children, as you’ll only have to worry about using one stroller. Choose between a side-by-side style or 2 seats in line for a narrower design.
Parents looking to maintain their active lifestyle will need a stroller that can keep up. Jogging strollers sport a lightweight, aerodynamic design ideal for trail or street running, and often come equipped with a hand brake or resistance brakes for added safety. They don’t usually have a bassinet stage so they're not recommended for newborns.Once you’ve got the stroller to meet your needs, you may want to look into some baby stroller accessories. From bassinets and car seat adapters to stroller bags and weather shields, you’ll find a wide array of products to add to your little one’s comfort, as well as your own peace of mind. You can also find a lot of other baby gear-to-go products like car seats, baby carriers, bouncers, and booster seats to make sure you have all your bases covered.Graco Car Seats, Travel Cots & Pushchairs Discover the exciting range of Graco car seats, travel cots and pushchairs brought to you by Halfords.Graco are one of the world's best-known baby and child brands, thanks to their reputation for high quality, value-for-money products that are designed to inspire parents and babies alike.

To convert a buggy from a single to a double, you need to be able to fix an additional seat unit, carrycot or car seat to the existing frame. If the pushchair is suitable for twins (not all are) then the chassis must be able to hold carrycots or car seats at the same time.
But if you have a toddler and a newborn, look for a buggy that can be converted to hold a single carrycot and seat unit. It's worth knowing that in some cases you'll need to buy special adaptors to allow your buggy to be converted. Check carefully with the manufacturer if you need any extras. Some convertible buggies are inline or tandem, meaning the seats are stacked one on top of the other like the iCandy Peach Blossom. Others are side by side buggies like the Bugaboo Donkey.
