A 3-wheeler is easier to maneuver on rough terrain since it has one wheel in front and two wheels in the back. Parents who live an active lifestyle and wish to go off-road will find these prams to be a great option. They also offer more stability than prams with four wheels and are a great option for parents who wish to jog with their child in tow.

Many 3 wheeler strollers have been designed to be all-terrain strollers. They come with special features that allow them to handle any terrain, including sandy and muddy trails as well as uneven and stony terrain. They're generally larger than standard pushchairs and some even have huge puncture-proof wheels that are perfect for all-terrain use. However, these wheels do add weight and size of the buggy so it's worth bearing this in mind when choosing an all-terrain pushchair for your children.

Folding is simple

If you're planning on taking your buggy on the road often, it's worth opting for a three-wheeler that's easy to fold. This will save you time when you need to load the buggy into and out of your car, or into a tight spot such as an aisle in a supermarket.

Certain brands make it a key selling point that their pushchairs are fast and simple to fold. This is a major selling point, especially when you'll use your buggy frequently for getting off and on public transport or often in and out of your car.

If you are looking for a quick and simple folding system there are many options to pick from. A lot of lightweight buggies come with a simple pull mechanism that allows you to quickly and easily fold up the frame. The renowned Priam stroller, which was awarded silver in the MFM lightweight buggie review in 2014 is one of these. The Baby Jogger City Mini also comes with a unique quick-folding system that requires only one hand needed and can be folded flat in only five seconds.

The choice of a pushchair that folds easily is also important if you plan to use it to walk in urban areas or with a child's car seat or carry cot. If you need the buggy to be stable when walking over uneven ground or bouncing on and down curbs, it's best to go with a four-wheeler as they generally have more stability and are less likely to tip over than three-wheelers.

If you are planning on driving your buggy through rural areas or on unpaved tracks, you should look for models with tyres that are filled with air (sometimes known as pneumatic) because they can be able to withstand rough terrain better than wheels that have been moulded. Certain models have a lockable wheel on the front to provide extra stability on rough surfaces. You can test the pushchair on different types of terrain at the store if you're unsure of what type of terrain you'll use it for. Some models have a range of features that allow you to adapt your pushchair to various terrains, such as suspension systems, as well as large puncture-proof tyres, and let you upgrade to more tyre sets to withstand more challenging conditions.

Easy to clean

As most parents are aware that a pushchair can be expensive, so it's essential to keep it looking nice and functioning properly. The best method to achieve this is to clean it on a regular basis. It's best to wipe it clean with warm, soapy water to get rid of most dirt and marks. However, you can also use a brush or a hosepipe (on low setting) to reach the corners and crevices of your stroller. This should be done on a dry, warm day. It is recommended to turn the stroller upside-down and then use brush.

If you're worried about staining you can try a solution of water and vinegar or bicarbonate of soda on a cloth. Both can help remove tough stains and neutralize odours. Regularly wiping down the surface with warm water will also stop mould from growing that is not only ugly, but also unsanitary to let toddlers and babies sit on.

The manual is among the best ways to maintain your pushchair in good shape and clean. The manual will provide useful details on how to construct and deconstruct your buggy as well as information on the materials. The manual will show you how to wash the fabric sections as well as the hood and other components of the buggy (everyone recommends washing them at least two times every two weeks) and that you should check the air pressure in the tyres regularly (normally stated in the manual).

As the majority of pushchairs are used often, the metal chassis and moving parts are exposed to a lot wear and tear over time. If left, this can result in loose bolts and nuts or even rust, so it's recommended to check your pushchair regularly for signs of wear. Contact the manufacturer immediately if you spot any issues. This will not only ensure that your pushchair in good working condition however, it will also help prevent any security issues that may result from malfunctioning equipment.

Easy to transport

A pushchair with 3 wheels is much more maneuverable than a four-wheel model. This is especially true if the rear wheels are big and designed to handle rough terrain. 3 wheel buggy are often able to negotiate kerbs and bumps more quickly, so you can pop it up and down and around town without difficulty. If you live in a rural area or regularly take your infant or toddler on walks on uneven ground or mud, then an all-terrain pushchair could be the best choice. They are ideal for walks in the woods and for rough terrain, with many of them able to attach your car seat or infant carrier to provide an all-in-one solution.

The majority of pushchairs with all-terrain features large, puncture-proof tires that are designed to be tough enough to cope with uneven and bumpy surfaces. However, many of them still come with a decent suspension to help you navigate difficult areas and ensure that the ride is as comfortable as it can be for your child. They are also quite heavy so they can be difficult to fold, especially when you're using them with children in the seat and you have many shopping bags.

Another thing to consider is the size of the basket for the pushchair with 3 wheels you're looking at. A lot of 3 wheelers have smaller baskets than their four wheel counterparts. If you are planning to do a lot of shopping or have a growing baby, you may need a larger stroller that can accommodate you.
