Three Wheeler Pushchairs
Three wheeler pushchairs can be a great choice for parents who love to run or are looking for a stroller which can handle diverse terrains. They are easy to maneuver and fold neatly to store or transport.
They are simple to maneuver in tight spaces, and supermarket corners can be a breeze with their swivel front wheels. Select models with air-filled tires that can handle rough roads and pavements.
Strollers
There are a variety of strollers on the market, each designed to meet certain requirements. Some are designed for multiple babies (twins or a smaller age gap) and others are suitable for singletons, and the rest are designed for children up to the age of four years. Many of them have safety guidelines that must be adhered to for example, a child seat or carrycot must be secured with a secure strap and shouldn't be more than 20cm away from the edge of the frame.
Three wheel pushchairs tend to have a single front wheel making them more maneuverable than other models. This makes them perfect for narrow streets or aisles in stores where space is limited. If you plan to use your stroller in a variety of different environments, think about an all-terrain pushchair. With tyres that are tough that can withstand rough terrain and bumps much more quickly than the standard stroller. Some even have suspension to help to make the ride more comfortable for your baby or toddler.
Some all-terrain strollers are designed to function as jogging buggies well. This is great for parents who wish to stay active and enjoy a brisk stroll or run with their child. These pushchairs have a larger frame, tyres and wheels than strollers. They could also come with a handbrake and adjustable handlebar.
It's worth taking your stroller for an experiment to see how it rides and how easy it controls. You'll also need to decide which type of tyres you prefer in terms of filled with air or foam. Air-filled tyres are generally more durable, but they are also prone to punctures so you'll need a repair kit with you.

This allows you to hold your baby or other children, or even bags with both hands. It's also great for parents who suffer from back problems or are recovering from C-sections.
Some models are designed to fold more traditionally with the seat in place, which means they'll be heavier and might not fit as well in your boot or car. Some of these will also require a couple of hands to fold, which could be a problem if you need to fold it while holding onto your child.
It is essential to ensure that the stroller is able handle the terrain you plan to use it. If you plan to navigate lots of cobblestones or gravel tracks, then tyres that are filled with air will give you a more comfortable ride.
