marked BS 4139 or BS 4792. However, even if a pram or pushchair is
marked BS 7409:1996, it does not mean that it is safe now and you are
advised to check any prams or pushchairs carefully. Many are subjected
to very hard wear which may have caused them to become unsafe.

-
Stability
-
No corrosion
-
No sharp edges or points

folding mechanism on handles particularly)

Two separate locking

Children's Car Seats
Should a car seat look second hand or faulty in any way it should be
scraped and not sold, you cannot be sure that a second hand seat has not
been involved in an accident and been damaged. The seat itself may look
perfect but it could fail to protect a second time.
The current European Standard for car seats is ECE R44.03 No car seat
should be sold without the proper fitting instructions.
