3 Wheel Pushchairs

Three wheel pushchairs are great for anyone who is an avid jogger or wants a more versatile stroller. Three-wheel prams, with air-filled tires instead of the big wheels that are often used on jogging buggies that are designed for roads that are paved, can be used to navigate woodland trails and cobbled streets.

Large wheels, however, could make some models heavy and bulky so check that it folds compactly and won't take up all your boot space.

Stability

Many parents are dissuaded from buying three-wheel pushchairs due to stories of them falling over - but this is usually due to poor or shoddy models. When you are choosing a 3-wheeler, it is essential to determine the stability of the buggy by trying it out in person. You should also look at how easy it is to shift direction or turn with the front wheel only, and how quick it can be done.

If you're planning to take your pushchair off-road, opt for a model with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) which can withstand rough terrain. These tyres can take the bumps and bumps of muddy trails or gravel tracks better than plastic wheels that have been moulded that give your child an enjoyable ride. Some models have the option of locking the front wheel, which can be used when you're going over really rough ground too.

All-terrain buggies may weigh more than typical buggies with four wheels. You may want to take into consideration the amount of space they will take up in the trunk of your car and whether you'll be able to carry them up and down the stairs after they've been folded. They can also be heavy to lift and move, so you should try the one on your own to gauge how much effort you'll need to exert to lift the buggy off the ground.

UPPAbaby's Ridge is an example of a three-wheel pram that is stable, manoeuvrable and suitable for off-roading using an attachment for a car seat. It features a front-facing seat that can be attached to an UPPAbaby carrycot, or you can attach infant car seats by using adaptors. The large rear wheels feature foam-filled tyres that are never flat, which make it easy to maneuver through rough terrain. The smooth suspension and adjustable handlebar ensure that your toddler or baby will be at ease.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled strollers are much easier to navigate and turn than four-wheel strollers since they have two wheels in the back and one at the front. They are great for navigating narrow city streets and the crowded aisles of supermarkets. Many 3-wheeled pushchairs also offer a lock function on the front wheel to further enhance their ability to navigate tight corners and spaces.

A pushchair with three wheels can perform better on off-road terrain than standard prams and strollers. For instance, iCandy's core has a variety of features that make this pushchair ideal for outdoor adventures. It features a rural wheelbase and larger wheels that, as per MFM reviewer Tara, "perform really well on woodland tracks, grass and market town cobbles."

In addition to their outstanding maneuverability, 3 wheel pushchairs are often built for durability. They're usually constructed with suspension systems that can absorb the shocks and bumps of various surfaces, ensuring that your child will be at ease throughout their journeys. They are a great choice for families who enjoy outdoor activities but don't want to sacrifice comfort or convenience.

It is possible to use a three wheel pushchair for jogging but you'll have to wait until your child is at least 6 or 9 months before you begin running (unless you have an infant carrier). Bugaboo's Sport Verso is a world-first offering a unique modular system allowing you to take your baby from newborn to toddler using a car seat and carrycot that is compatible with the chassis. You can also change between a run and stroll mode, so you can go from a woodland walk to a leisurely shopping trip easily.

Folding


Many 3-wheel pushchairs can be folded neatly and compactly when not in use, and can be tucked into a small boot or under the staircase. When folded they can be quite wide due to their large back wheels.

The Core range from iCandy has a range of wonderful features for parents including an ample basket, a movable handlebar and one-handed fold. Its all-terrain capabilities are impressive too, with the front wheel that can be locked with a swivel as well as large foam-filled tyres, and a smooth suspension making it ideal for walks in the woods or in the city.

The seat unit is oriented towards the world and is designed for infants up to 6 months old. The UPPAbaby Ridge has a hand-operated break on the right, which MFM reviewers have found to be useful, especially when pushing it across uneven terrain. This feature may not be available on all models. Be sure to verify before buying to ensure.

Stores

Many 3 wheeled pushchairs have amazing features that make life easier for parents. There are many features, including a huge basket that is easily accessible, as well as storage spaces in the front and back.

A popular choice is the UPPAbaby Ridge which has a host of brilliant features that are perfect for families with active children. It is suitable for infants and has a world-facing seat unit. It can be used with the car seat adaptor or carrycot from birth.

Off-road

Many pushchairs that are used for regular use struggle with bumpy terrain such as cobbles, rough paths, and tree roots, however 3-wheeled buggies are far more able to handle these types of terrain. They typically have larger rear wheels, and a lockable wheel on the front, which can be turned to navigate difficult terrain. This feature allows you to easily navigate around tight areas as well as handle kerbs that are difficult to navigate and keep control over the most difficult roads.

All-terrain strollers are ideal for families who enjoy being outdoors, exploring the countryside or taking off-road hikes.
