10 Meetups On 3 Wheeled Pushchair You Should Attend The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

If you frequently walk on rough terrain or would like to run on a treadmill, a three-wheeled pushchair is the ideal choice. They are great if you want a buggy that will be able to handle any terrain, from busy high streets to tracks in the woods.

Find models with front wheels that can be locked or turned. This will give you more flexibility. Front and rear wheels that are bigger provide a more comfortable ride on various surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the key benefits of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are positioned close together allowing the chassis to rotate and turn more easily than a traditional 4 wheel pushchair, making them ideal for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide additional maneuverability when required. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned close together in front, and an innovative lock that swivels to give it all the maneuverability of three wheels, with added stability.

Many of our best-selling 3 wheelers are also 4-in-1 travel systems that convert from stroller to pram to toddler seat and car seat carrier as your child grows. This is ideal if you're planning on travelling with your family or on frequent trips to the shops. One such example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that comes with Hauck's XL air wheels, a 360 swivel front wheel that can be locked and a suspension system that makes it suitable for all terrains, including off-road and jogging when your child is old enough to start jogging with you!

Another great option is the ickle Bubba Nipper, a pushchair that is all-terrain with a great suspension and huge puncture-proof tyres, which make it suitable for off-roading and smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the seat that can be reversible, or with a carrycot that is compatible) and comes with a convenient quick fold that can be folded with one hand to store your boot and for airport travel.

Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is essential depending on where you'll use it the most. Moulded wheels are great for city life but won't perform well on more rough terrain. If you're planning to take your pushchair off paved surfaces, opt for air-filled tyres, sometimes known as pneumatic tyres capable of handling rough terrain.

For a model of pushchair that is designed to handle both rural and urban environments take a look at our top-rated Bugaboo 5 All-Terrain pushchair. It's got all the fantastic suspension and large wheels of an all-terrain model. However, it's also an excellent urban pushchair with a super lightweight frame, an easy-to-use lockable front wheel and one-handed fold.

Stability

There are a number of options to look out for that will enhance the stability of your buggy. For instance, some models have a swivelling front wheel that can lock into place to provide extra stability on rough terrain. This can be especially useful when you're planning to be using your pushchair off-road or running as it gives you the confidence to take any surface without difficulty.

Another excellent stability feature is suspension. This can make your buggy far more comfortable for both you and baby, especially on uneven ground. Some brands also offer the option to swap out different tyres so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair according to the type of terrain you'll be riding it on.

If you're looking for a 3 wheeled pushchair that can be used on any terrain, think about buying a model that has air-filled tyres. They will give you a more comfortable ride over bumps and are less prone to punctures than traditional wheels. 3 wheeler pushchair allow you to ride on tracks that are not paved and can carry your buggy across various surfaces, including grass, sand, and mud.

All-terrain strollers are usually bigger than standard strollers however, there are some excellent options that don't sacrifice on maneuverability or stability. One of our favourites is the UPPAbaby Ridge comes with a number of amazing features that make it suitable for off-road use as well as jogging after your child reaches the appropriate age.

It's also compatible with a large variety of car seats and can accommodate a carrycot or infant carrier too. It's a little heavier than some of the other 3-wheelers but is still an excellent option for parents looking to take their pushchairs on all types of terrain.

Weight

The disadvantage of 3-wheeled pushchairs is that they can be quite heavy, particularly when traversing bumpy terrain and kerbs. The larger rear wheels on a 3-wheeler add up to a greater total weight than 4-wheelers, which means you'll need more strength to lift them, especially when folding them.

If you need a pushchair that can handle rough terrain and rocky tarmac the all-terrain model might be worth a look. These models typically come with special features such as a sturdy suspension system and large puncture-proof tires. 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 comes with an array of child-friendly features that will help it to tackle many types of terrain easily. The Ridge all-terrain pushchair has many parent-friendly features, including the possibility of locking its front wheel, an easy one handed fold and a large basket and adjustable handlebar. MFM reviewer Becky said that the Ridge is "very suitable for walking in the woods and gravel roads as well as market town cobbles".

It can be converted to a car seat or carrycot. The iCandy Core is packed with features that make it a fantastic stroller for all terrains. These include large foam-filled tyres that don't flatten, and a superb suspension. The Core is heavier than other strollers for all-terrain use, but still lightweight enough to travel in rough terrain.

Folding

All-terrain models are a great option for those who want an option for a pushchair that can handle rough terrain. This kind of pushchair will come with large wheels both front and back to tackle bumpy, off-road terrain. They'll usually have a more robust suspension and larger puncture resistant tyres to prevent them from getting clogged with grass, sticks or mud.
