For any would be parent one of the most important purchases you are going to make is a pram or pushchair. So before we go any further looking at the factors which should be considered before purchasing a pram or a pushchair let me briefly describe the difference between the two

The pram is generally thought to have originated from Victorian England, with its high wheels and its half cover to protect the baby from the sun and rain it became popular as a portable bed for a new born baby. Still to this day people tend to buy a pram for a new born as it provides a comfier sleeping environment and allows the baby to face the pusher

Pushchairs (also known as strollers and buggies) are generally for older children, up to the age of three, in which the child faces forward and sits more upright. The child can still be laid flat in a pushchair; however the sleeping environment is nothing like as good as that provided by a pram.

When purchasing prams and pushchairs, what are the factors people should consider:

Lifestyle
This is an important factor when considering whether to go for a pram or a pushchair. If you do plenty of walking then a pram is probably the best choice as it will allow the baby to lie and sleep in a comfy environment, whist always facing the pusher. However, if you do a lot of travelling, particularly on public transport, then the extra convenience a pushchair provides when it comes to folding away, will make life much easier.

Cost
Buying both prams and pushchairs at different times in a childs life can be quite expensive. So a popular option here is to purchase a 2 in 1 system which allows the pram to be used as a pram whilst the baby is still new born and then as they grow, to be switch around so they can be sat more upright and face forward much like a pushchair.

Size
A pram will generally be much larger than a pushchair, both when upright and when folded. You will need to consider where you will store the pram and or pushchair and how you will carry it about. Ensure you check the pram especially will fit into the boot of your car before you buy. Also with a pram you will tend to have a separate chasis to the baby compartment, which again takes up more space, when compared to a pushchair which is generally an all in one.

These are just three of the factors to consider for people considering buying prams and pushchairs.
