Three Wheeler Pushchairs 101: Your Ultimate Guide For Beginners Three Wheeler Pushchairs

If you're a busy parent who loves to jog or searching for a stroller that can take on a variety of terrains, three-wheeler pushchairs are a great option. They are easy to maneuver and fold neatly to be stored or transported.

With just one front wheel that can rotate and turn, they're easy to turn in tight spaces and make grocery corners effortless. Select models with air-filled tires to handle bumpy roads and pavements.

Strollers

There's a huge range of strollers available, all designed to meet different needs. Some strollers are designed to accommodate multiple infants (twins or children with a slight age difference), while others are designed for singletons. The others are designed to fit children aged from birth to four. Many of these have safety guidelines that must be followed, for example - any child seat or carrycot has to be fastened securely and can't be more than 20cm away from the edge of the frame.

Three-wheel pushchairs are easier to maneuver because they only have one front wheel. This makes them ideal for navigating narrow streets or store aisles where space is limited. If you plan to use your stroller in a variety of different environments, you should consider an all-terrain pushchair. Designed with tough tyres, they can tackle rough terrain and bumps much more quickly than the standard stroller. Some models even come with suspension to help ensure a more comfortable ride for your toddler or baby.

Certain all-terrain buggies are designed to be used as jogging buggies. This is a great choice for parents who wish to exercise and take their child for a walk or run. These pushchairs are larger in frame, tyres and wheels than strollers. They may also come with an adjustable handlebar and a handbrake.

If you plan to jog with your stroller, consider having a test drive in order to see how you like the experience and how easy it is to control. You'll have to decide if you prefer air-filled or foam-filled tyres. Air-filled tyres are generally more durable but are prone to punctures so you'll need a repair kit with you.

They come with amazing all-terrain options, such as suspension systems with large puncture-proof tyres, as well as an adjustable handlebar that is suitable for both dads and moms. They also comply with the REACH regulations of the EU. This means that they are not high in lead and phthalates.

Joggers

If you're a running enthusiast (or buggy runner) or want to be, you will need a 3-wheeler pushchair that is specifically designed for running. These have larger wheels than standard strollers, and a suspension designed specifically to handle bumps and uneven sidewalks. They are also more heavy and bulkier than traditional strollers, making them unsuitable for use in everyday situations unless you plan to go for a regular run.

The Mountain Buggy Terrain jogger is one of the most popular 3-wheelers available on the market. It is a combination of precise steering and maximum control for getting active, along with refined design and top-quality maneuverability in urban areas. It's a dream come true for the parent who is a dedicated runner but also would like to keep their child close by and comfortable for long walks or errands.

There are also other excellent joggers that can be used for everyday strolling, including the UPPAbaby Ridge Stroller Jake and the Baby Jogger City Elite 2 Stroller Jet. These have air-filled tyres which provide a smooth ride, but are susceptible to punctures, so you'll need to have a spare. Some models also come with adjustable suspension or heavy-duty suspension to make the ride more comfortable on rough terrain.

It is possible depending on your child's age and development, to move easily from carrying a stroller to a jogging or jogging stroller. However, it's always recommended to consult your pediatric physician first, especially when they advise waiting until your child is at least six months old.

You can also purchase the jogger, and connect an adapter for carseats that is compatible with it. The phil&teds Sport buggy, for instance, can be converted into a 2-in-1 system with an infant seat, allowing you to take your child on walks or run from the beginning of their life.

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 3-wheeler is a stylish and practical 3-wheeler that can be used to stroll or light jog. It's a great choice for parents who want to be active and trendy. The City infant car seat is able to be used from birth with the optional adapter. It has air-filled tyres and three recline positions, which means your child can have a comfortable ride, and it folds in the blink of an eye.

All-terrain

If you love to wander off the beaten track, live in a rural location or you want to run with your baby an all-terrain pushchair could be the right choice for you. The best all-terrain strollers have large, rugged wheels that can handle bumpy terrain and a great suspension to make your child's journey comfortable.


They are typically larger than standard pushchairs and could be a hassle to store in your car boot. They are also more expensive than other pushchairs. Be aware of this as you shop around.

It is recommended to choose models that have a height-adjustable bar. This will be beneficial if you and/or your partner have different heights. Also, consider whether you'd prefer a wrist strap, which reduces the possibility of it slipping off on sloping ground or going over hills. Some models have a fixed wheel at the front, which is more manageable when you're jogging. Certain models come with a swivel wheel that can be locked into place to make it easier to navigate on uneven surfaces.

The type of tyre used is equally important. Many all-terrain strollers are equipped with air-filled tires that provide an easy ride, but can puncture. Some pushchairs have a foam- or gel-filled tire, which is less likely to puncture. However, it can increase the weight of the pushchair.

A quality all-terrain stroller will include a large, spacious basket that can be used for carrying your baby's groceries. Some will have a convenient compact fold that can be folded in one hand to help you put it away when not in use. They will often have raincovers and footmuffs included too.

The Mamas & Papas Ocarro is one of our favourite all-terrain pushchairs. It was awarded the Mother and Baby Gold Award in 2017. The dual suspension expertly handles rough terrain, allowing you to take your baby on walks across all terrains and even go jogging with it (once your child is old enough). It is suitable from birth, includes a fully reclined seat and can be used as a travel system that includes an infant car seat or carrycot.

Folding

Some of the most popular pushchairs fold. They are smaller in your home and are more convenient to fit in the car's boot which is ideal when you're in a tight space, have a small car boot or are planning on traveling a lot as with your family.

There are several different fold types, so look for one that suits your lifestyle and preferences. For instance, some of the latest buggy models come with a revolutionary auto-fold that collapses at the simple pressing. This lets you hold your child as well as other children or bags using both hands. It's also great for parents with back issues or are recovering from C-sections.

Some models are designed to fold more traditionally and with the seat in place, which means they'll weigh a bit more and might not fit as well in your car or boot. Some of these will also require two or more hands to fold, which could be a problem if are holding onto your child.

Whether you prefer an easy umbrella fold or a more complex mechanism, it's worth checking that the stroller you select will be able to deal with the terrain you'll be riding it on. If you're planning on navigating a lot of cobblestones and gravel tracks, then tyres with air will offer an easier ride.

If you plan to use your pushchair mostly on roads that are paved or pavements and roads, then the majority of three-wheelers come with tires that are moulded to provide your child with a comfortable ride. However, if you'll be taking your child off-road or over rough terrain opt for an option that comes with a set of movable guards for mud and a quick-release front wheel to keep your pushing kit looking its best.
