Maximum baby's weight
The maximum weight of the driver that the wheelchair can withstand without breakdowns and other troubles. Usually this indicator is indicated not for a one-time “trip”, but for regular use over a long period of time. At the same time, many models are able to endure a short-term excess of the maximum weight without visible consequences, but it is still not recommended to do this — it is possible that the structure will not break immediately, but its service life can be noticeably reduced.
Also note that it is worth choosing a gurney according to the maximum weight with a certain margin, and not only because the child is constantly growing. The fact is that manufacturers can indicate the maximum weight for simple conditions — a flat surface without bumps; when hitting bumps, the load may exceed the calculated load, even if the weight of the rider is within the normal range.
Swivel wheels
The presence of
swivel wheels in the design of the wheelchair. Usually the front wheels are made swivel, they are controlled using the steering wheel, but there are other design options — for example, self-orienting wheels (as on an office chair or a trolley in a store); they allow you to move the wheelchair in any direction. Anyway, this function makes it easier to control the stretcher — without it, it would be difficult to move otherwise than forward or backward.
Weight
The total weight of the wheelchair in working position. The lighter the weight, the easier it will be to move the device from place to place and the easier it will be for the baby to roll it; on the other hand, low weight usually indicates relatively low strength.
