10 Meetups On 3 Wheeled Pushchair You Should Attend
The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair
A three-wheeled pushchair is ideal for those who walk a lot on rough terrain or jog. They are the best option if you need a pushchair that can tackle any terrain from busy roads to forest tracks.
For greater maneuverability, opt for a model with locking or swivelling front wheels. The rear and front wheels that are larger offer a more comfortable riding on different surfaces.
Manoeuvrability
A lightweight 3 wheel buggy wheel pushchair is a fantastic choice for those who want to be able to maneuver effortlessly. The wheels are set close to each other, allowing the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a traditional 4 wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shops. Some have small front wheels that can be swivelled and locked for extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned close together in front, and an ingenious lock that swivels to give the flexibility of a 3 wheel pushchair travel system-wheeler, but with added stability.
A majority of our top-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 great if you're planning on travelling with your family or on frequent shopping trips. One example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that features Hauck's XL air wheels with a 360-swivel front wheel that can be locked and a suspension system that allows it to be used on all terrains, including off-road and jogging when your child is old enough to join in with you!
Another option is the ickle bubba Nipper which is an all-terrain pushchair with a great suspension and huge puncture-proof tyres that allow it to be used for off-road adventures and smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the reversible seat unit or with a carrycot that is compatible) and comes with a convenient one-handed fold that is ideal to store your boot and for airport travel.
It is crucial to select the correct wheels for your pushchair depending on where it is most likely to be used. Moulded wheels are great for urban use, but they won't do well on rougher ground. If you intend to move your pushchair off the paved surfaces, choose pneumatic tyres. They are able to handle rough terrain.
If you're looking for a model that can be used in both rural and urban environments, then take a look at our top-rated Bugaboo Fox 5 All Terrain pushchair. It comes with all the suspension and large wheels you'd expect from a pushchair designed for all-terrain use, but it's also a city pushchair that's extremely light and has the option of locking the front wheel.
Stability
There are a number of features that you can look out for that will improve the stability of your buggy. Certain models have a swiveling front wheel that is locked to give additional stability when driving when riding on rough terrain. This can be especially useful for those who will use your pushchair off-road, or for running, as it gives you the confidence to take any surface with ease.
Suspension is an additional feature for stability. It makes your buggy more comfortable to ride, for both you and your baby especially on rough terrain. Some brands offer the option to alter the tyres of their pushchairs so that they can be adapted to the terrain you'll be using it on.
You should consider investing in a three-wheeled pushchair with air-filled tires If you are looking for a pushchair that can handle any terrain. These wheels provide a smoother ride over bumps and are less likely to puncture than solid wheels. These wheels let you use your buggy on non-paved surfaces and can be used on a variety of surfaces, including grass as well as sand and mud.
All-terrain strollers are usually bigger than standard strollers however there are many excellent options that don't sacrifice on maneuverability or stability. One of our top picks is the UPPAbaby Ridge which has numerous impressive features that make it suitable for off-road walking as well as jogging (once your child is old enough).

Weight
The downside of strollers with 3 wheels is that they are heavy, particularly if you need to maneuver through bumpy terrain or kerbs. The larger rear wheels on a 3 wheel running buggy-wheeler make up a higher 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 is able to handle rough terrain and tarmac that is rocky the all-terrain model might be worth a look. These models usually come with specific features like strong suspension systems and large puncture-proof tires.

The iCandy Core has a host of features that will make it a fantastic all-terrain pushchair - including large, foam-filled never-flat tyres and an excellent suspension system.

Folding
All-terrain models are a good choice if you need an all-terrain pushchair that can withstand rough terrain. This type of pushchair has large wheels both on the front and back to aid in navigating rough off-road terrain. Often they'll have more robust suspension as well as more puncture-proof tyres to prevent them from becoming blocked with sticks, grass or mud.
