3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

There are three-wheel strollers designed for anyone regardless of whether you're seeking a jogging stoller or an all-purpose stroller to use on a daily basis. The Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through their paces on pavement and off-road surfaces, as well as assessing the comfort of children in the seats.

Stroller Features

The best strollers have features that make traveling with your child much easier. Find features that make life easier, such as a large storage bin, parent tray with cup holders, a movable canopy, and so on when you are shopping for the latest stroller. It's crucial to decide which features are essential for you and your family, and those you can live without.

The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller with plenty of convenient features to keep moms and dads happy and comfortable. The handlebar can be adjusted to three different heights to accommodate caregivers. A wrist strap prevents the stroller from rolling away when you're jogging. The Wayfinder also has the most extensive sunshade in our testing group and has a large, clear window at the top to let children peek out while they're resting. Jenni's 3-year-old daughter found the seat to be comfortable padded, so bumps in the road don't cause him to shake.

This jogging stroller also has a hand brake to help you maintain control on slick surfaces. It folds into the size of a compact, slim package that takes up a tiny space in the trunk of your car. Additionally, it can convert into a travel set-up with certain infant car seats from brands including Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex using the purchase of an adapter. It can also be used with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet.

Solid tires are a must for strollers that will be used on terrains that are rough. They're not as comfortable as air-filled or spongy-filled tires, but they're perfect for navigating bumps and potholes.

This stroller is a jogging model and has an easy-to-use fold that takes just two steps. It locks in place when folded and is compact 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 difficult to understand. It involves pressing an icon on the front of the stroller, opening a flap that is located near the foot area, and then lifting a handle. We'd prefer a simpler method that clicks in place or opens by pulling.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the overall stroller is a crucial factor to take into account. A stroller that is heavier is more stable and can perform better on uneven terrain. However, many parents find that a stroller with a lighter weight is more maneuverable and more suitable for everyday use.

The type and size of the wheels is another important feature. Certain strollers, like ones that jog have wheels that are larger and will provide a more comfortable ride for baby. The larger wheels can weigh more on the stroller and make it harder to fold and transport, as well as store.

Certain models in our collection come with air-filled tires, which are designed to offer a comfortable and stable ride for your child even over rough terrain. However, tires that are filled with air can easily become flat, which will need to be changed out. If you intend to travel frequently with your stroller, we recommend a model with solid tires that can stand up to frequent contact with various surfaces and last for a longer time.

Strollers with front wheels that swivel are ideal for getting around stairs and escalators in a safe manner. Falls on escalators or stairs are the most frequent stroller injuries. They can be especially hazardous for infants. If you are unable to avoid using the stairs or escalator while using your stroller, we suggest using it only when the child is safely strapped into the seat and hold them close to you while walking up or down.

Some strollers are sold as an entire travel system in which the car seat and stroller are sold together as a single unit. These are typically more expensive and less convenient than their separate counterparts and may not perform well in the long run. Many parents regret purchasing bundle products because they may not come with all the features they want or may not be compatible with their car or child seat. We recommend you choose a stroller that can be purchased separately from the car seat or capsule if you wish to upgrade to a higher-end model in the future.

Stroller Folding

The best compact 3 wheel strollers fold easily and put away. Some even lock into position automatically when you open them. This feature is particularly beneficial for families who frequently use public transportation or take a car to take a walk.

Three-wheel strollers are designed to move around tight spaces like aisles in grocery stores and other areas that are crowded with ease. Many are also equipped with suspension systems that give an easier stroll for your child which is especially helpful on slippery sidewalks.

The Guava Roam is a lightweight jogging stroller. It's a stylish stroller which can be used as a travel system, with the matching car seat adapters for Nuna Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex infant carseats and the bassinet for the Uppababy (car seats and stroller board are sold separately). The stroller folds in two steps and locks into position after opening.

Another stylish 3-wheel jogging stroller is the Babyzen Yoyo 2. This stroller is a little more expensive than our top picks, but worth it if you travel a lot or live in a city. The lightweight stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1) and has a padded, adjustable, five-point no-rethread harness and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller for infants and young toddlers with an adapter for infant car seats.

The Babyzen is a quality product with some nice features. It has a spacious recline, and also has storage space. However there are some parents who are dissatisfied by its performance. The seat doesn't lay flat when it reclines and there's no cupholders or snack trays for kids. The brakes are a little difficult to engage and the handlebars are a bit high for certain moms.

The Graco Fastaction stroller is designed to be as light as possible, without losing comfort or ease of use. It's equipped with a lengthy list of impressive features including a large basket and a one-handed fold. The only downside to this stroller is that the brakes can be a bit difficult to activate, and they don't lock when the stroller has been folded.

Stroller Safety

A stroller's safety features will assist in keeping your child safe during use. Some of the best-scoring models in our review have five-point harnesses with adjustable, padded crotch straps that allow for a custom fit. Some strollers come with a cushioned cushion that shields your child's head should they roll off or fall out of their seat. Some strollers come with a safety brake that locks two wheels. This is particularly important for strollers that run jogging because it prevents them from rolling over when they're going up or down stairs or escalators, where they can be especially risky for children.

In our tests strollers' maneuverability was evaluated in three distinct ways. We rated it on the basis of a stroller's ability to turn and bounce when bumps or dips are encountered as well as its user-friendliness with a child on it, and its ability to navigate over rough terrain. We also looked at the ease of being able to open and close the safety harness fold and unfold the stroller, adjust its backrest, handlebar height and brakes, and attach and remove car seats (if applicable).

We found that some 3 wheel pushchairs-wheel strollers are easier to maneuver than 4-wheel options however this benefit diminishes when your baby becomes heavier. That's why we recommend choosing a model that has hand brakes, which helps you slow down and come to a stop with as little effort as relying on body power alone. Many of the top-scoring, swivel-wheel strollers do not have this feature. Only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel strollers comes with it.

It's also important to think about the frequency you'll require to take your stroller up the stairs or an escalator, and whether it's safe to do this with the stroller still in place. Escalators and stairs present more dangers because they move mechanical parts, making it difficult to control the movement of the stroller. If you are able, we recommend using an elevator or having a second adult assist you in carrying the stroller. Some of the best-rated strollers can be carried up a set or stairs with their safety brake engaged. It's always safer to be secure rather than regretting.
