Features

The Baby Trend 3-Wheel Jogger Stroller is ideal choice for parents who wish to exercise while they're out with their child. It can easily be changed from a stroller to an jogger by the quick locking of the front wheel. It can also be used for an e-travel system by purchasing an infant car seat (not included).

The best jogging strollers include three to four large, air-filled tires that can withstand any terrain and bumps. They're a lot easier to push than strollers that have small plastic wheels that can seem like you're pushing a brick every time you turn around a corner or run over a rock.

Many jogging strollers come with either a swivel or fixed front wheel. While a swivel wheel is perfect to maneuver the stroller but it isn't safe to use when running. It can cause it to abruptly change directions and crash. The best strollers have a lockable wheel that can be locked in a fixed location when running.

Consult your pediatrician prior to allowing your child ride in a stroller. They can help you determine whether your child has the neck and core strength to handle the strain of running with their stroller. They can also advise you on the appropriate weight limits and safety features of your stroller.

If you're planning to take your child on a walk, make sure that the stroller is equipped with five-point safety belts and a cushioned harness. A safety belt with five points ensures that your child is securely strapped into the stroller, and stops them from escaping their seat or falling out the back. This could pose a risk to both you and your baby. A padded harness cushioned by padding absorbs the impact of falls, thus reducing the chance of injuries to the head.

Safety

Jogging strollers generally have a bigger price tag than their 4-wheel counterparts due to their more robust construction and design for all-terrain usage. They also tend to fold a little smaller due to their large wheels. If you plan to run with their child frequently, we strongly suggest investing in a jogger that is specifically designed for this and comes with a locking fixed front wheel for more stable running. A few of the top-rated models in our review come with adjustable tracking to ensure straight movement. Strollers that lack this feature can veer off-track and require constant manual correcting making jogging for parents more difficult.

This stroller features a great suspension system to cushion your child's ride and adjustable handlebar height that can accommodate different pushers. It also has a hand brake that functions similar to a bicycle brake that is useful to slow down and stop on hills. The seat back is a bit shorter than other joggers, however it's still a comfortable fit for kids that weigh more than 50lbs. It also has an umbrella that provides plenty of protection. It's also possible to convert it into a travel system by buying the appropriate adapter.

It's worth noting that many pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is at eight months old before allowing them to start running on strollers, regardless of whether it is a stroller or not. Children should be securely strapped in the 5-point safety harness and wearing a bike helmet until then.


Maintaining a regular schedule of maintenance for your stroller that you jog on is a must. It is recommended to clean it frequently to prevent the buildup dirt and grime, particularly around the crotch strap where sweat builds up. We recommend using water and a mild detergent, or a baby-safe cleaning spray. Also, you should inspect your stroller regularly and ensure that the tires are correctly filled. You can purchase an air pressure gauge at the majority of outdoor and sporting goods stores.

Comfort

The best jogger strollers have many features that make them more comfortable for the baby and the runner. They have a good suspension that cushions bumps and jolts. They often also have adjustable tracking to keep the front wheel straight for long distances. Hand brakes mounted on the handlebars allow runners to better control their speed and direction. They usually have a larger canopy that shields the child from sun and headwinds and typically, they include a peek-a-boo window, so that the runner can easily check on the child without stopping.

In our opinion, the ability to adjust the track to ensure that the stroller is straight across long distances and on flat surfaces is more important than the type of wheel or swivel ability. three wheel pushchair that do not have this feature tend to veer, requiring constant manual correction. This can quickly become a problem and get tiring during the course of a run.

A cushioned seat, particularly with extra padding in the shoulder and crotch areas, is a nice touch that makes a jogger more comfortable for babies. Depending on the child, this can be a great way to keep them happy while running and stop them from complaining or fidgeting, which could disrupt your focus and affect your pace.

Most joggers carry a storage bag which is helpful to carry equipment and other supplies. Some also have a cup holder that is great for snacks and drinks. Our experience has shown that most Joggers are fairly flat when folded, making them much easier to store and carry in the trunk of a car.

Another important consideration is whether or not the jogger you choose is suitable for your child's needs, specifically their height. The majority of joggers are designed to accommodate children as tall as 50 pounds, and they can be used in conjunction with an infant car seat for those who intend to use them as their primary stroller. Convertible strollers can grow with your child and last through multiple pregnancy.

Storage

A three wheel jogger stroller is larger than standard strollers and takes up more storage space. They're also typically more expensive, however they provide a more relaxing stroller for babies and offer parents the possibility of moving to jogging with a more serious approach once their child is a bit older.

A hand-operated brake system, similar to that of a bicycle brake, is an important feature to be looking for on a stroller. This makes it easy to slow down and stop which is especially useful when you're running on hills. Another safety feature you should look for is a five-point harness, which comes with shoulder straps, waist belts and a crotch strap that all connect to keep your child secure.

The front wheels of a jogger can be fixed or rotate. Fixed-wheel joggers are more easy to steer than swivel ones but swivel joggers can be difficult to maneuver on bumpy terrain. You should also consider whether you'll use a stroller car seat along with your jogger and, if so, what type of infant car seat. Some joggers are compatible with various car seats, while others only accept a few models.

This jogger from BoB Gear offers more features for less money than the other strollers in this guide. Its shock-absorbing suspension as well as padded near-flat reclining seat provide an enjoyable ride for children and it comes with an enormous sun canopy that can be adjusted to protect the children from the elements.

It's also a good choice for those who bring snacks and toys for their little one because it offers plenty of storage space inside the spacious basket. It also has a parent's organizer that clips onto the handle and can hold water bottles as well as other essentials.

The main drawback of this stroller is its awkward two-hand fold, which requires you to raise both levers up simultaneously. This can be a hassle when you're trying to grab something quick while in transit and isn't as convenient as the single-handle collapse on other strollers.
