Watch Out: What 3 Wheeled Pushchair Is Taking Over And What Can We Do About It The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

A three-wheeled pushchair is perfect if you walk regularly on rough terrain or jog. These are the best for those who need an automobile that can handle any terrain from busy streets to forest tracks.

Look for models with front wheels that can be locked or turned. This will allow you more flexibility. Front and rear wheels that are larger offer the most comfortable ride on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is a major advantages of a three wheel pushchair . The wheels are close which allows the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy streets and shops. Some models have smaller front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to give them extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels in the front placed close together, and a smart lock that allows it to be as stable as a three-wheeler while maintaining the same maneuverability.

Many of our most loved 3 wheelers can be converted from pram, stroller or car seat, and toddler seat as your child develops. This is great if you're planning on travelling with your family or on frequent trips to the shops. One example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that includes Hauck's XL air wheel with a 360-swivel front wheel that locks and an adjustable suspension system that allows it to be used on all terrains including off-road and jogging after your child is old enough to start jogging with you!

The wheels you choose for your pushchair is important dependent on the location you'll be using it most. Moulded wheels are great for city life but won't be able to handle rougher terrain.
