Pushchairs: Compare features & prices Bebecar Ip-op review http://www.which.co.uk/baby-and-child/baby-transport/reviews/pushchairs/bebecar-ip-op/review/

Travel system
Can the pushchair can be used as a travel system by using it with a child car seat?

Use with carrycot
Can attach a carrycot to the pushchair? Either on the frame instead of the seat, or on top of the seat?

Pushchair weight (kg)
Pushchair only, without accessories.

Folded dimensions (cm)
Size in cm of the pushchair when it is folded. If the pushchair has a separate seat and chassis we give the folded volume of the chassis only.

Suitable for use from birth?
A 'Yes - seat is excellent' pushchair has a seat with a backrest that reclines to more than 150 degrees, which is best for newborn babies. The backrest on a 'No' pushchair seat either does not recline to more than 120 degrees, or reclines so the baby lies less than 60 degrees from horizontal; the British pushchair safety standard means that the 'less than 60 degrees' minimum recline can be classified as suitable from birth in the UK, but Which? thinks that this is out of date and believes that a greater recline is better for newborn babies. We follow the more up-to-date European standard and do not recommend these models for babies under 6 months. Pushchairs labelled 'No' do not recline far enough to be suitable from birth, but can be used from 6 months. Pushchairs labelled 'Yes- with carrycot only' are suitable from birth only if you use the compatible carrycot until the baby is six months. The seat on these pushchairs is not suitable for use under six months. The carrycot may or may not be included in the price.

Maximum child weight (kg)
Manufacturer's recommendation. If the cell is blank the manufacturer does not specify this information in its instruction booklet. Weights for double pushchairs are per seat.

Parent-facing option
Whether the seat unit can face backwards towards the pusher or forwards

Number of back rest positions
How many positions the backrest can be set in

Number of leg rest positions
How many positions the leg rest can be set in

Folding Method
Whether the pushchair: folds into itself to make a long, thin package (umbrella fold); folds into a square package like a concertina or folds over itself in a scissor action. The way it folds will determine the folded size, shape and volume.

1-handed folding
Whether we were able to fold the pushchair using one hand in our tests. Although one hand fold may be possible, a 'yes' does not also mean that it was easy.

Self-catching clip
A self-catching clip automatically holds the pushchair shut when it is folded, making it easier to lift.

Stands upright when folded
A pushchair that stands unaided when it is folded is easier to store or use on public transport.

Car seat compatible
These pushchairs can be used with a car seat. Inclusion of the car seat here does not mean that it too is a Best Buy. However it will not have been awarded a Don't Buy status in our test.

Compatible brand
Pushchairs tend to be compatible with car seats made by their manufacturer
