Why Nobody Cares About 3 Wheeled Pushchair

The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

If you often walk across rough terrain or would like to go jogging, a three-wheel pushchair is the ideal choice. They are the best option if you need a buggy to handle any terrain, from busy roads to forest tracks.

For more manoeuvrability, look for a model that has locking or swivelling front wheels. The rear and front wheels that are larger also offer a more comfortable ride on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the major advantages of a three wheel pushchair. The wheels are set close together allowing the chassis to move and turn much 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 for extra maneuverability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned close together in front, and a clever lock that swivels to give the flexibility of a 3 wheeler stroller-wheeler, but with added stability.

Many of our most popular 3 wheel pushchair travel system wheelers can be converted from pram, stroller or car-seat and toddler seats as your child grows. This is great for those who plan to travel as a family or for frequent shopping trips. The Baby Jogger Nipper is a perfect example. It features Hauck airwheels XL and a 360-degree lockable swivel wheel and a suspension that lets it be used on all terrains.

The ickle bubbling Nipper is a different option. It's an all-terrain stroller, with large puncture-proof tyres as well as a great suspension that makes it suitable for both off-road adventures and smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the seat unit that is reversible or with a carrycot compatible) and has a handy quick fold that can be folded with one hand for storage in the boot and airport travel.

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

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

Stability

There are a number of options to look out for that will improve the stability of your buggy. For example, some designs come with a swivelling front wheels that can be locked in place to give you extra stability when driving on rough terrain. This can be particularly useful if you are going to be using your pushchair off-road or running as it gives you the confidence to walk any surface without difficulty.

Another excellent stability feature is suspension - this makes your buggy more comfortable for both the baby and you particularly on uneven ground. Some brands also offer the option to swap out tyres of different brands so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair to suit the type of terrain you will be riding it on.

You should consider investing in a three-wheeled pushchair with tires that are filled with air if you want a pushchair that can handle any terrain. These wheels will offer smoother rides over bumps, and are less likely to be punctured than solid wheels. They will also allow you to tackle non-paved tracks and will carry your buggy over various surfaces, including grass, sand and mud.

All-terrain pushchairs tend to be a little wider than standard pushchairs however there are a few fantastic options that won't compromise on maneuverability or stability. One of our top picks is the UPPAbaby Ridge which has an array of amazing features that make it suitable for off-road and running (once your child is old enough).

It can be slightly heavier than some of the other 3-wheelers but is still a great choice for parents who want to use their pushchair across all terrains.

Weight

The disadvantage of 3-wheeled pushchairs is that they can be heavy, especially when you're traversing bumpy terrain and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a 3 Wheeler Pushchair Off Road-wheeler add to the overall weight, which is heavier than the 4-wheeler. This means you'll need more strength when lifting them.

All-terrain models are an excellent option for those who want an infant stroller that can handle rough terrain or rocky tarmac.

It can be converted to a car seat or carrycot. The iCandy Core has a host of features that make it an excellent all-terrain pushchair, including large, foam-filled never-flat tyres and a fantastic suspension system. The Core is heavier than other all-terrain strollers, but still light enough to maneuver in rough terrain.
