Top buggy brands Graco pushchairs
Graco was originally an American manufacturer of machine and car parts, but has been making baby products since the mid 1950s and selling them in Europe since 1997.
It was the first pushchair manufacturer to create a travel system pushchair, which allows parents to add a car seat to the pushchair frame.
Actress Amy Adams – who starred in Enchanted and The Muppets – is one of Graco’s celebrity fans. The brand is known for its affordable products – pushchairs start at less than £100.

What is a typical Graco pushchair like?
There are seven travel systems, two buggies and three double pushchair models in the Graco range.
Find out about different buggy types with our interactive buggy chooser tool.
The range includes basic strollers as well as more luxurious travel systems. The Quattro Tour Duo is a travel system for two children.
Graco travel system pushchairs are only compatible with Graco child car seats, such as the Graco Logico S HP car seat . Some pushchairs come in a package with the car seat included.
Graco buggies come with a good range of accessories including a raincover, footmuff and hood. Some pushchair packages include playtrays, cup holders and a soft pram body to convert the pushchair seat into a pram for a newborn baby.
Some Graco pushchairs are better than others at coping with bumpy off-road terrain, so make sure you read all our reviews before choosing your buggy if this is important to you.

How we review Graco pushchairs
Our experts in the Which? test lab put each Graco pushchair through more than 30 tests to check its strength, durability and safety, in line with British Standards.
We assess how easy the pushchair is to push, adjust for children of different ages and fold up. We also test whether it will fit unfolded on an escalator and on public transport, or folded in the boot of a small family car. We even find out how easy it is to remove food stains from the pushchair’s seat fabric.
The final part of our testing involves a panel of parents (and their babies), who rate the features of the pushchair. They take each model for a spin to see how easy and convenient it is to manoeuvre on pavements, bumpy ground, up and down stairs and around obstacles.
You can find out more about how we test pushchairs and read customer views from parents who already own each model in our full pushchair reviews.
