3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

Whether you're a fitness enthusiast seeking a stroller for jogging or looking for an all-purpose stroller for everyday use there's a compact three-wheel stroller out there for you. Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through their paces on pavement and off-road surfaces, as well test the comfort of children in the seats.

Stroller Features

The best strollers offer features that allow you to travel with your baby more convenient. Whether you're shopping for a new 3-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller look for features that are convenient, such as an ample storage basket as well as a tray for the parent with cup holders, adjustable canopy, and more. The key is determining what features are not negotiable for you and your family and which ones you could do without.

The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller, comes with a wide range of features to keep moms and dads content and comfortable. The handlebar can be adjusted to three different heights to accommodate caregivers. A wrist strap prevents the stroller from slipping away while you are jogging. The Wayfinder also features the biggest sunshade we've seen in our test group, with a clear window on top that lets kids peek out while they're resting. Jenni's 3-year-old son found the seat to have a comfortable padding, so bumps on the road didn't bother him.

This jogging stoller has an automatic handbrake that helps you keep your grip on slippery surfaces. It folds into an extremely compact and slim size that takes up very little space in the trunk of your vehicle, and it can convert into a travel set-up with certain infant car seats from brands including Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex with the purchase of an adapter. It is also compatible with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet.

If you're planning to tackle rough terrain, sturdy tires are essential for strollers of all kinds. Solid tires are not as comfortable as spongy-filled or air-filled tires, but they're excellent for navigating bumps and potholes.

The jogging stroller folds in just two steps. It locks into position when folded and is small enough to fit in most elevators. However, it's not as easy to move around as our other 4-wheel strollers and the mechanism for locking is a bit confusing. It requires pressing a button on the front of the stroller, a flap near the foot area, and then raising a handle. We'd like to see a more simple system where it just clicks into the position or opens when pulled.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the overall stroller is a significant factor to consider. A stroller that is heavier is more stable and will perform better on rough terrain. However, many parents discover that strollers with lighter weights are more maneuverable and more suitable for daily use.

The type and size of the wheels is another important feature. Some strollers have larger wheels, such as those for jogging, which makes the ride easier for your baby. However, larger wheels increase the overall weight of the stroller, which can make it difficult to fold or transport and store.

Certain models in our collection come with air-filled tires, which are designed to provide an enjoyable and stable ride for your child, even over rough terrain. However, tires that are filled with air can easily become flat, which will require you to swap them out. If you plan to take your stroller on the road a lot, we recommend that you choose one with solid wheels. They can endure contact with different surfaces more often and last longer.

Strollers with swivel wheels on the front are ideal for safely navigating escalators and stairs. Falls on escalators or stairs are the most common injuries to strollers. They can be particularly dangerous for infants. If you can't avoid using the escalator and stairs with your stroller, we recommend using it when your child is secured in the seat. Also keep them close to you while you go up or down.

Some strollers are a travel system which includes both the car seat and the stroller. These products are often more expensive and less convenient than their standalone counterparts, and may not perform well in the long run. Additionally many parents end up regretting buying a bundled product as it may not come with all of the features they want, or it could prove to not be compatible with their vehicle or child's seat. We suggest that you purchase a stroller that can be purchased separately from a capsule or car seat in case you wish to upgrade to a higher-end model in the future.

Stroller Folding

The top 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth wheel compact strollers fold quickly and easily to make storage and transport a breeze. Some lock automatically into place when you open them. This feature is especially useful for families that frequently take public transport or drive to go on a walk.

Three-wheel strollers are designed to move around tight spaces like aisles of grocery stores and other crowded areas easily. A lot of them are equipped with suspension systems for an easier ride. This is especially beneficial on bumpy sidewalks.

If you're looking for a jogging stroller that isn't heavy, the Guava Roam Crossover is a great alternative. The stroller is a stylish stroller that can also be used as part of a travel system with adapters for car seats to fit Nuna MaxiCosi, Cybex, and Nuna infant carseats, and the Uppababy Bassinet. (Car seats and stroller boards are sold separately). The stroller has a simple two-step fold and can be locked once it is opened.

The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another nice-looking 3 wheel stroller and car seat-wheeled jogging stroller. The stroller is more expensive than our top picks but is worth it if you travel often or live in a city. The stroller is lightweight and folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 wheeler stroller x 7.1) and has padding, a detachable, five-point no-rethread harness and a large basket. It can even be used as a pram to carry newborns or young toddlers (with an infant car seat adapter).

Although the Babyzen has some nice features, such as a roomy recline and extra storage space, some parents are dissatisfied with its performance. The seat isn't fully flat when reclined, and there's no cups or a tray for snacks for kids. The brakes are difficult to engage and the handlebar's height is too high for many short moms.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that's designed to be as light as is possible without skimping on comfort or ease of use. It has a long list of amazing features like a huge basket and a one handed fold. The only issue is that the brakes can be difficult to engage and don't stay locked when the stroller is folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller will ensure your child's safety while using it. Some of the top-scoring products in our review have 5-point harnesses that are adjustable crotch straps that are padded and padded that allow for a custom fit. Others have a padded seat cushion to shield your child's head in the event that they fall from the seat or fall off. Some strollers are equipped with the safety lock that locks both wheels. This is particularly important for walkers who jog, as they are less likely to fall over while going up or down stairs and escalators.

In our tests, strollers' maneuverability was rated in three different ways. We rated it based on a product's ability to turn and bounce when bumps and dips are encountered as well as its user-friendliness with a child on it and its capacity to travel over rough terrain. We also assessed the ease of opening and closing the safety harness, folding and unfolding the stroller, altering the height of its backrest and handlebar, operating the brakes, as well as attaching and removing car seats (if applicable).

We found that strollers with 3 wheel stroller for newborn wheels were easier to maneuver, but the advantage diminished as baby weight increased. This is why we recommend the model with hand brakes, which assists you in slowing down and stop without as much effort as using body power alone. Many of the top-scoring swivel-wheel strollers do not come with this option. Only one of our best-rated fixed-wheel strollers has it.

You should also consider the frequency you'll have to use your stroller to go up or down escalators or stairs and if it is safe to do this. Stairs and escalators pose greater risk due to the fact that they move mechanical parts, making it difficult to control the movements of the stroller. If you can, we recommend using an elevator or having an adult help you carry the stroller. Some of the top-scoring strollers are able to be taken onto the stairs or an escalator, with their safety brakes engaged and locked, but it's always safer to be safe than not be.
