3 Wheeled Pushchairs

3 wheeled pushchairs can be a excellent choice for mothers who enjoy walking on diverse terrain. The larger front wheels on these buggies allow them to be more maneuverable and provide more stability on uneven ground.

If you intend to take your buggy on roads, choose a model with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic). These are more efficient and puncture-proof on surfaces that are not paved.

Stability

Generally, the bigger the wheels on your pushchair, the better it will be able to handle rough terrain and uneven ground. This is because the larger wheels have a bigger contact surface, and are therefore less likely to skid over bumps and dips. They also provide a more comfortable ride for your child. The drawback is that the additional wheels take up space in the car boot. Some models of pushchairs that have large front wheels need to be removed in order to store them flat.

All-terrain strollers come with features such as large puncture-proof tires and robust suspension that allows them to take on everything from bustling strolls on the high streets to forest hikes. They can be more expensive than other models, however when you frequently use your pushchair off the main track, they might be worth the extra expense.

If you plan to remove your pushchair from pavements, you should consider selecting a model that is fitted with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) because they are more suitable for rough ground than the solid rubber ones. They are also less likely to break than ones made of steel or hard plastic.

Certain pushchairs allow you to remove the front wheel when they are not in use. This can make them easier for you to store, especially when you have an empty boot. Some models have an front wheel that can be locked into place to ensure stability on rough terrain. If you're thinking of purchasing a pushchair that has this feature, you should check how it's operated before purchasing.

It is important to think about how easy it will be it to add another seat or parent-facing unit to your pushchair. This is particularly true when you have a child with you. Some models are designed to be quick and easy to change between these configurations, while others may require more patience.

Manoeuvrability

A 3-wheel pushchair can be easier to steer and handle than a 4-wheeler, due to the single front wheel making it simple to navigate over rough terrain or bumps. Many models also come with suspension systems, designed to help absorb shocks and ensure a smooth ride for your baby. MFM's Kath tried a tri-wheeled buggie and was impressed by the ease with which it handled uneven pavements, cobblestones and dirt tracks. She found it easy to go up and down kerbs and the wheels were quick to maneuver over grass too.

There are three types of 3 wheeled pushchairs namely strollers (also known as joggers) and models with all-terrain surfaces and all-terrain models. Strollers are equipped with smaller wheels and narrower frames that are more for urban environments, while Joggers are fitted with big wheels and designed for off-road use. They come with a handbrake, adjustable handlebars and are great for off-road walks.

All-terrain pushchairs are a popular choice for parents who want to enjoy the outdoors and explore the countryside, and they usually have more robust and larger wheels than standard pushchairs. They are ideal for terrains that are rough and are typically used from birth, although you might need to purchase car seat adapters if you are looking to connect a compatible infant carrier.

Some pushchairs appear to be 3 wheel stroller for newborn-wheelers but actually have 4 wheels, with two small wheels positioned close together in front, instead of a traditional central pair. This gives maneuverability and the stability of a four-wheeler.

Some 3-wheel pushchairs have the option of locking and swivelling the front wheel, making them even more manoeuvrable. This is especially beneficial if you encounter difficult surfaces often, as you can avoid getting stuck or having obstacles to negotiate. Some all-terrain pushchairs are also equipped with foam-filled 'never flat' tyres that don't need pumping up, so they're more comfortable and convenient for long walks or continuous use. It's important to remember that these types of pushchairs tend to be larger and heavier than other pushchairs, so it's important to consider the method you'll use for transporting or storing them when selecting the best model for you.

Weight

In general 3-wheeled pushchairs are generally heavier and larger than standard pushchairs. This is especially true when they have big back wheels. It can be difficult to lift a pushchair once it is folded, like when loading it into the trunk of a car or when navigating the stairs. This can make the pushchair feel heavy and restrict the ability to move through narrow spaces or aisles.

All-terrain pushchairs are designed to withstand a variety of different terrains, such as rough and uneven terrain such as gravel and mud paths. They typically have large, puncture-proof tyres and a robust suspension system to offer a safe and comfortable ride for your child. They will usually be quite a lot more expensive than normal pushchairs.

If you live in the countryside or take your child regularly for walks through woodlands or country parks, an all-terrain pushchair could be the best option. These pushchairs typically have large tyres on both the front and back, and they are designed to withstand many different terrains. These pushchairs are usually suitable for wet or muddy weather however we suggest regularly checking your tyres to avoid air bubbles and flat spots.

The iCandy Core, for example is a pushchair for all-terrain use that checks a lot of boxes. It comes with a large 10kg basket, a one-handed fold and an adjustable handlebar. The large tyres are filled with foam tyres that will never flat. You don't have to worry about punctures. The seat is suitable for use from birth and is suitable for all different ages. It can also be used in conjunction with the carrycot as well as an infant carrier.

The Special Tomato Jogger is another option. It's a light and highly maneuverable design. It's a great choice for parents who are active and like to walk or jogs along with their child, and it has suspension to provide a comfortable ride on different types of terrain. We also love how easy to clean it, with the fabric simply being removed from the frame and then washing in cold water.

Tyres

The tyres on a 3-wheel pushchair will often be larger than those of the 4-wheel model and can help navigate off-road terrain. The UPPAbaby Ridge, for example has tyres with large, foam-filled tyres that don't flatten, as well as a suspension system. This makes it suitable for long walks on rough terrain. It's designed to be able for jogging when your child is old enough. This is because of the 360-degree lockable front wheel, and a suspension that can be adjusted.

However, larger tyres could increase the overall weight of the pushchair, so you'll need to take this into account when deciding on the model. It is also important to think about whether you'd prefer a pushchair with removable wheels for easier storage in your car boot. MFM reviewer Becky particularly enjoyed this feature because it made manoeuvring around supermarket corners much simpler.
