Safety checks

We check 11 things. Here's the list.

Every buggy, every time. Each check is photographed and signed off with a name and date.

The checklist

The same list for every buggy, before it can go on sale.

  1. Labels

    BS EN 1888 label

    The UK pushchair safety standard label is there and readable.

  2. Labels

    Fire safety label

    Fabrics carry their flammability label.

  3. Frame and fold

    Fold locks

    The frame locks open and stays locked under load.

  4. Frame and fold

    Harness

    Every strap, buckle and anchor point holds, with no fraying.

  5. Brakes and wheels

    Brakes, downhill

    The parking brake holds on a slope facing down.

  6. Brakes and wheels

    Brakes, uphill

    And holds facing up the slope too.

  7. Brakes and wheels

    Wheels

    No cracks, wobble or flat spots. They lock and swivel properly.

  8. Frame and fold

    Frame

    No cracks, bends or corrosion anywhere on the chassis.

  9. Little fingers

    Finger traps

    Hinges and folding points have their guards and don't pinch.

  10. Little fingers

    Sharp edges

    No sharp or broken plastic anywhere a hand can reach.

  11. Recalls

    Recall check

    Model and serial number checked against UK and manufacturer recalls.

  12. = one buggy you can trust.

    See the signed sheet on every shop page

What if it fails?

  1. It fails a check

    Any one of them. No exceptions.

  2. We fix it

    Then run the whole checklist again, from line one.

  3. Or it goes for parts

    If it can't be put right, it's stripped for spares.

It never goes on sale.

Know the model, not just the buggy

Our checks tell you this buggy is safe. Our spec pages tell you about the model: weight, fold size, seat, carrycot, and whether it's still made, for all 42 models we check.

Every shop page shows the signed, photographed checklist for that exact buggy.
