The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair If you regularly walk through rough terrain, or wish to exercise in a pushchair with three wheels, it's the perfect choice. They are ideal if you want a buggy that will take on any terrain, from busy streets to tracks in the woods. For greater maneuverability, opt for a model with locks or swivelling front wheels. Larger wheels on the front and back offer an easier ride on different surfaces. Manoeuvrability Manoeuvrability is among the main advantages of a 3 wheel pushchair . The wheels are placed close to each other, which allows the chassis to rotate and turn more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy streets and shops. Some have small front wheels that are swivelled and locked for extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels at the front that are placed close together, and a lock that allows it to be as solid as a 3-wheeler while still allowing for the same maneuverability. Many of our best-selling 3 wheelers come with a 4-in-1 travel systems that can transform from a stroller to toddler seat and car seat carrier as your child grows. This is great for those who are planning to travel as a family or make frequent visits to the shops. One example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that includes Hauck's XL air wheel and a 360 swivel front wheel that can be locked and a suspension system that allows it to be used on all types of terrain, including off-road, and jogging once your baby is old enough to join in with you! Another good choice is the ickle bubba Nipper, a pushchair that is all-terrain with excellent suspension and large puncture-proof tyres that allow it to be used for off-roading and smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the seat that can be reversible, or with a compatible carrycot) and comes with a convenient one-handed fold that is ideal for boot storage and airport travel. Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is important dependent on the location you'll be using it most. Moulded wheels are ideal for the city but not on more rugged terrain. If you plan to move your pushchair off paved surfaces, choose pneumatic tyres. They can withstand rough terrain. For a model of pushchair that is built to be able to handle both rural and urban environments, take a look at our top-rated Bugaboo 5 All-Terrain pushchair. It has all the suspension and big wheels you'd expect from an all-terrain pushchair, but it's also an urban pushchair that's super lightweight with an adjustable front wheel lockable. Stability You can increase the stability of your buggy by looking for specific features. For instance, certain models come with a swivelling front wheels that can lock in place to give you extra stability when driving on rough terrain. This can be particularly useful if you are going to be using your pushchair off-road or for jogging as it will give you the confidence to walk on varying surfaces without difficulty. Another good stability feature is suspension – this can make your buggy far more comfortable to ride in for both the baby and you especially on uneven terrain. Some brands even provide the option of swapping out tyres with different sizes so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair to suit the type of terrain you'll be riding it on. You should consider investing in a three-wheeled pushchair that has air-filled tires if you want a pushchair that is able to handle any terrain. These will provide an easier ride over bumps and are less susceptible to punctures than solid wheels. These wheels will let you use your buggy on surfaces that are not paved and can be used on many surfaces, including grass or sand, as well as mud. All-terrain pushchairs are generally slightly larger than standard pushchairs, however there are a few fantastic options that don't compromise stability or manoeuvrability. One of our favourites is the UPPAbaby Ridge that comes with numerous impressive features that make it suitable for off-road walking as well as running (once your child is old enough). These include large, foam-filled, never-flat tyres and adjustable suspension as well as an easy one-handed fold. The Bugaboo Fox 5 is another excellent stroller that is all-terrain. It is similar as the UPPAbaby and comes with great suspension, large puncture proof tires, and a single handed fold. It is compatible with many car seats and can also accommodate a carrycot. It can be slightly heavier than some of the other 3-wheelers, but is a great option for parents who want to take their pushchairs on any terrain. Weight The drawback of 3 wheeled strollers is that they're heavy, especially when you are required to traverse bumpy terrain and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a 3-wheeler increase the overall weight, which is higher than the 4-wheeler. This means you will need more strength to lift them. If you need a pushchair that is able to handle rough terrain and tarmac that is rocky the all-terrain model might be worth a look. These usually have special features, such as strong suspensions and big puncture-proof tyres. Manufacturers are increasingly creating all-terrain strollers equipped with tyres which are filled with foam or gel to stop them from becoming flat. UPPAbaby's Ridge all-terrain pushchair has a great choice of parent-friendly features that will help it to tackle many types of terrain with ease. It includes the possibility of locking the front wheel, an easy and easy one-handed fold, the large basket and an adjustable handlebar. MFM reviewer Becky said that the Ridge is “very good for walking in the woods and gravel roads, as well as market town cobbles”. iCandy is another brand that offers a range of all terrain pushchairs. Their latest all-terrain model the Core, is suitable for babies from birth and is coupled with a carrycot or car seat adaptors. The iCandy Core has a host of features that will make it an excellent all-terrain stroller, including big, foam-filled never-flat tyres and an excellent suspension system. The Core is heavier than other strollers for all-terrain use, but still light enough to maneuver on more rough terrain. Folding All-terrain models are a great option if you want an option for a pushchair that can handle rough terrain. This type of pushchair has large wheels both on the front and rear to aid in navigating rough off-road terrain. They usually have more durable suspension, as well as larger puncture-proof tyres to prevent them from becoming blocked with sticks, grass or mud. One excellent model of this kind of pushchair is the Mountain Buggy Ridge.
