Baby Gear — Strollers, Car Seats, Cribs & Feeding

This is the expensive end of baby shopping, and the part worth researching properly. A stroller or car seat is bought once and used daily for years, so the right questions are about Indian conditions, not marketing copy: will the wheels survive uneven footpaths, does it fold into a hatchback boot, can one parent carry it up stairs, and is the fabric washable after a Mumbai monsoon?

Our picks lean toward gear that handles real Indian use — larger wheels over tiny plastic casters, removable washable covers, and reversible handles so the baby can face you as a newborn and face out later. We do not show prices here; tap through for the current price on Amazon, where big-ticket items move a lot during sale events.
