3 Wheeled Pushchairs
3 wheeled pushchairs are a great option for mums who enjoy walking on diverse terrain. The larger front wheels on these buggies make them easier to manoeuvre and offer greater stability when walking on rough terrain.
If you intend to drive your buggy on surfaces other than the paved ones, you should choose a model that has air-filled tires (also known as pneumatic). They are much more effective on surfaces that are not paved and are puncture-proof too.
Stability
In general, the larger the wheels on your pushchair, the better it will be able to handle rough ground and terrain. This is because larger wheels have a bigger contact area, so they are less likely to skid over bumps and dips. They also offer a more comfortable ride for your child. The downside is that the additional wheels can take up the space in your car boot, and some models of pushchair with large front wheels may need to have them removed if you want to put it away flat.
All-terrain pushchairs are designed to be able to take on anything from high-street strolls to woodland walks, and are fitted with features that let them accomplish this, including sturdy suspension and tyres with puncture-proof treads that are large. These models are generally more expensive however if your pushchair is frequently used outside of the main roads often, they could be worth the cost.
If you are planning to take your pushchair off pavements, you should consider selecting a model with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) because they are more suitable for rough terrain than tyres made of solid rubber. These tyres are also less likely to break than ones made of metal or plastic.
Some pushchairs allow you to remove the front wheel when not in use. This makes them easier for you to store, particularly in the case of a small boot. Some models also have the front wheel that swivels and can be locked to provide stability on rough terrain. It's worth checking the ease of you to use a pushchair that has this feature prior to purchasing.
If you're thinking about adding a second seat, parent-facing unit, or car seat adaptors to your pushchair it's important to check how it's going to be easy to switch these components and fold/unfold the pushchair with them attached - especially as you might have to do this with a child on board. Certain models are designed for simple and quick modifications to the configuration, whereas others require more patience.
Manoeuvrability
A pushchair with three wheels is easier to maneuver and steer than a 4-wheeler. The single front wheel allows for easy maneuvering over bumps and rough terrain. Many models come with suspension systems that absorb shocks and give your baby an easy ride. MFM's Kath tested a three-wheeled buggie and was impressed by the ease with which it handled uneven pavements, cobblestones, and dirt tracks. Kath found it easy for her to climb up and down kerbs and the wheels were fast to negotiate grass.
There are three main types of 3 wheeler pushchairs wheel pushchairs: strollers, joggers 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 are specifically designed for off-road use. They are equipped with a handbrake, adjustable handlebars and are great for off-road walks.
All-terrain pushchairs are popular for parents who want to utilise the outdoors and explore the countryside. They usually come with larger and more durable wheels than regular pushchairs. They are ideal for rough terrain, and can be used from the moment of birth. However, you may need car seat adaptors to attach an infant car seat.
Some pushchairs resemble 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth-wheelers, but have four wheels. Two small wheels are placed close together in front instead of the traditional central pair. This allows for maneuverability while maintaining the stability of a four-wheeler.
Some 3 wheel stroller-wheel pushchairs come with an swivelling and lockable front wheel, making them even more maneuverable. This is especially beneficial for those who frequently encounter challenging surfaces, since it can assist you in avoiding getting stuck or walking around obstacles. Certain all-terrain strollers come with foam-filled "never flat" tyres, that do not require pumping. This makes them more convenient and comfortable to use on long walks or for frequent use. It's worth noting that these types of pushchairs are generally heavier and bigger than other pushchairs and it's crucial to consider how you'll be transporting or storing them when deciding on your preferred model.
Weight
Generally speaking, 3 wheeler buggy-wheel pushchairs tend to be heavier and larger than standard pushchairs, particularly when they come with large rear wheels. This can make it difficult to lift the pushchair once folded, for example when loading it into a car boot or navigating stairs. This could make the pushchair appear heavy and restrict your ability to maneuver through narrow aisles or spaces.
All-terrain pushchairs are built to be able to navigate different terrains, such as rough and uneven terrain as well as mud and gravel trails. These pushchairs typically come with large, puncture-proof tyres and a sturdy suspension system to offer a safe and comfortable ride for your child. These pushchairs are generally expensive compared to regular pushchairs.
All-terrain pushchairs are a good option for those who reside in the countryside or take your baby for regular walks in the woods or in country parks. These pushchairs are built to withstand a variety of terrains and will have large tyres on both the front and rear facing 3 wheel stroller. These pushchairs are usually suitable for wet or muddy weather, but we recommend making sure you check your tyres regularly to avoid air bubbles and flat spots.
The iCandy Core is a great all-terrain stroller that checks off many of the boxes. It has a spacious basket that can carry up to 10kg, a single hand fold, and a movable handlebar. The large tyres are filled with foam and never flat, which means you don't have to worry about punctures or losing air pressure. The seat is orientated to the world and suitable from birth, and it can be used in conjunction with an infant carrycot or infant carrier.
Another option is another option is the Special Tomato Jogger, which has a lightweight design and great maneuverability. It's a great choice for parents who are active and like to walk or jogs with their child and has a suspension system to ensure a comfortable ride on different kinds of terrain. The fabric can be removed from the frame, and then washed with cold water using a machine.
Tyres
The tyres of a three-wheeled pushchair are usually larger than those on a four-wheeled pram. This makes it easier to cope with off-road terrain. For instance the UPPAbaby Ridge features large, foam-filled tyres that are never flat and suspension systems that make it ideal for long walks and rough terrain. It's also designed to jog when your child is old enough. This is due to a 360-degree lockable front wheel and a suspension that can be adjusted.
However, larger tyres can add weight to the pushchair. You'll have to take this into consideration when selecting the model. You'll also need to consider whether you'd prefer a pushchair with removable wheels to make it easier to store in your car boot. MFM reviewer Becky especially liked this feature as it made manoeuvring around the corners of supermarkets much easier.
