3 Wheeled Pushchairs Three-wheeled pushchairs can be an ideal option for mothers who like walking on different terrain. These buggies are easier to maneuver and are more robust on rough terrain as they have larger front wheels. If you intend to use your buggy on terrains other than the paved ones, you should choose a model that has air-filled tires (also called pneumatic). They are more effective and puncture-proof on non-paved surfaces. Stability The larger the wheels on your pushchair, the better it will cope with rough ground and terrain. This is because bigger wheels are more likely to skid' on bumps and dips. They also offer a more comfortable ride for your child. The downside is the extra wheels are a burden on the car boot. Some models of pushchairs with large front wheels must be removed in order to store them flat. All-terrain strollers are equipped with features such as large puncture-proof tires, as well as robust suspension that allows them to handle everything from busy high-street strolls to woodland hikes. They are often more expensive than other models, but If you are regularly using your pushchair off the beaten path, they may be worth the extra cost. It is better to choose a pushchair with pneumatic (or air-filled) tires if you intend to take it off paved surfaces. They are more suitable for rough terrain than tyres made of solid rubber. They are also much less prone to punctures than tyres that are made from hard plastic or metal. Certain pushchairs allow you to remove the front wheel when not in use. This can make them easier for you to store, especially when you have a small boot. Certain models come with front wheels that can be locked into place to give you extra stability on uneven terrain. If you're thinking of purchasing a pushchair that has this feature, make sure to check how it's easy to use before purchasing. If you're thinking of adding a second seat, parent-facing unit, or car seat adaptors to your pushchair, it is important to determine how it's going to be easy to switch these components and fold/unfold the pushchair when you have them attached – especially as you may need to carry a baby on board. Certain models are designed for simple and quick configuration changes, while others require more patience. Manoeuvrability A 3-wheeled pushchair is much easier to maneuver and steer than a four-wheeler. The single front wheel allows you to easily navigate over bumps and rough terrain. Many models also have suspension systems, designed to help absorb shocks and provide an enjoyable ride for your baby. MFM's Kath tried a tri-wheeled buggie and was awed by the ease with which it handled uneven pavements, cobblestones and dirt tracks. Kath found it easy to get up and down kerbs and the wheels were quick to negotiate over grass too. There are three kinds of 3 wheeled pushchair s: strollers (also known as Joggers), all-terrain models and all-terrain models. Strollers are ideal for urban environments due to their smaller frames and narrower wheels, while joggers have large wheels and are designed to be used off-road. They typically feature a handbrake and adjustable handlebars. They are great for tackling off-road trails. All-terrain pushchairs are a favorite for parents who wish to enjoy the outdoors and enjoy the countryside, and they generally have more robust and larger wheels than regular pushchairs. They are ideal for rocky terrain and are suitable from birth. However, you might require car seat adaptors to attach an infant carrier. Some pushchairs appear to be 3-wheelers, but they have four wheels. Two wheels are placed close together in front instead of the traditional central pair. This provides manoeuvrability with the stability of a four-wheeler. Some 3-wheel pushchairs come with a swivelling and lockable front wheel, which makes them even more manoeuvrable. This is especially beneficial when you have to navigate through rough terrain often, as you will avoid getting stuck or having obstacles to negotiate. Some all-terrain strollers are fitted with foam-filled “never flat” tyres, which do not require pumping. This makes them more convenient and comfortable to use for long walks or for continuous use. It's worth noting that these types of pushchairs are generally larger and heavier than other models and it's crucial to consider the method you'll use for transporting or storing them when selecting the best model for you. Weight In general 3-wheeled pushchairs tend to be heavier and larger than regular pushchairs. This is especially the case when they have big back wheels. This can make it difficult to lift the pushchair while folded, such as when loading into the car boot or going up stairs. This can make the pushchair feel heavy and hinder your ability to maneuver through narrow aisles or spaces. All-terrain strollers are designed to be used on various terrains, including rough and uneven terrain, mud, and gravel paths. These pushchairs are equipped with large, puncture-proof tires. They also have strong suspensions to ensure an enjoyable ride for the child. They are typically expensive when compared to standard pushchairs. If you reside in the countryside, or regularly take your baby for walks through woodlands or country parks, an all-terrain pushchair may be the best option. These pushchairs will generally have large tyres both front and back, and they are designed to withstand a wide variety of terrains. These pushchairs are usually a good option for wet or muddy weather, but we recommend regularly checking your tyres to avoid air bubbles and flat spots. The iCandy Core, for example is a pushchair for all-terrain use that checks a lot of boxes. It comes with a large basket that can hold up to 10kg, a single hand fold, and a movable handlebar. The large tyres are stuffed with foam and never flat, so you don't have to be concerned about punctures or losing air pressure. The seat is world-facing and is suitable from birth and can be used with an infant carrycot or infant carrier. The Special Tomato Jogger is another alternative. It is lightweight and extremely maneuverable design. It's perfect for parents who like taking walks or jogging and has suspension that will give you the user a comfortable ride across all terrains. We also appreciate how easy to clean it is with the fabric being removed from the frame and washing in cold water. Tyres The tyres of a three-wheeled pushchair tend to be larger than those on a 4-wheeled pram. This helps it to navigate off-road terrain. The UPPAbaby Ridge, for example has tyres with large, foam-filled tyres that don't flatten, as well as a suspension system. This makes it ideal for long walks on rough terrain. It's also designed to be suitable for jogging when your baby is old enough due to a 360-degree locking swivel front wheel that can be locked and an adjustable suspension. However, larger tyres may add weight to the pushchair so you'll need to consider this when deciding on the model. You'll also have to decide if you would like a model that has wheels that are removable to make it easy to store in your car boot. MFM reviewer Becky particularly liked this feature as it made maneuvering around supermarket corners much easier.
