What Three Wheeler Pushchairs Should Be Your Next Big Obsession
Three Wheeler Pushchairs
If you're a busy parent who loves to run or searching for a stroller which can be able to handle a variety types of terrain, three wheeler pushchairs are a great option. They are easy to move around and fold up neatly to store or transport.
With just one front wheel that can rotate, they're easy to turn in tight spaces, making supermarket corners easy. Select models equipped with air-filled tires to withstand rough roads and pavements.
Strollers
There are a variety of strollers to choose from that are designed to meet certain requirements. Some are made for multiple babies (twins or a smaller age gap), others are suitable for singletons, and the rest are made to fit children as young as of four years. Some of these products have safety guidelines which must be adhered to. For example any child's seat or cot that is carried must be secured securely and should not extend more than 20cm from the frame's edge.
Three wheel pushchairs tend to have a single wheel on the front, making them more manoeuvrable than other models. This makes them perfect for narrow aisles or streets in shops where space is at a premium. If you plan to use your stroller in many different environments, you should consider an all-terrain pushchair. Built with tough tyres they can take on rough terrain and bumps much more easily than the standard stroller. Some even have suspension to help ensure a more comfortable ride for your toddler or baby.
Certain all-terrain buggies are designed to be used as jogging buggies. This is ideal for parents who wish to stay active and enjoy a brisk walk or jog with their child in tow. These pushchairs are larger in frame, tyres, and wheels than a stroller. They may also come with an adjustable handlebar and a handbrake.
If you plan to jog with your stroller, you should consider getting a test drive to see how you find the ride and how it's easy to manage. You'll also have to decide what kind of tyres you prefer and whether they're foam-filled or air-filled. Air-filled tyres are generally more durable, but they're also susceptible to punctures, so you'll need to have an emergency repair kit.

They also come with an adjustable handlebar for both parents and moms. They are also compliant with the EU REACH regulations and low in phthalates, lead and other harmful chemicals.
Joggers
If you're a buggy jogger or buggy runner then you'll require a three-wheeler stroller specifically designed for running. These have larger wheels than standard strollers, and a suspension that is specially designed to handle bumps and uneven sidewalks. These are also more heavy and bulkier than standard strollers, making them unsuitable for use in everyday situations unless you plan to go on an occasional run.
The Mountain Buggy Terrain jogger is one of the most popular 3-wheelers available on the market. It combines maximum control and precise steering to keep you active, with elegant styling and superb manoeuvrability within the city. It's the perfect solution for parents who are runners but want to keep their child at a comfortable distance on long walks or for running errands.
There are other great joggers that can be used for strolling around the city, such as the UPPAbaby Ridge Stroller Jake and the Baby Jogger City Elite 2 Stroller Jet. These have air-filled tyres, which give a very smooth ride but are prone to punctures, so you'll need to carry a spare. Some come with heavy-duty or adjustable suspensions that ensure a smoother ride on rough terrain.
It is possible dependent on your child's age to seamlessly transition from carrying a stroller to a jogging or jogging stroller. It's best to consult your pediatric physician prior to purchasing a jogging stroller, particularly if your doctor suggests waiting until your child is 6 months of age.
Another option is to buy a jogger and then add on a compatible car seat adapter. The phil&teds Sport buggy, for instance is able to be converted into a two-in-one system that includes an infant seat, allowing you to take your baby for walks or run from the beginning of their life.
The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is a fashionable and practical 3-wheeler that can be used for leisurely strolls and light running. It's an excellent choice for parents who are active and fashionable, and it can accommodate a car seat starting at birth (with the optional City infant car seat adapter). It has three recline positions and air-filled tires so that your child will be able to enjoy an enjoyable journey. It also folds quickly.
All-terrain
If you like to walk off the beaten track or live in a rural location or would like to run with your child an all-terrain pushchair could be the best option for you. The best all-terrain prams will come with large, robust wheels that can withstand bumpy ground and have a good suspension to ensure a comfortable ride for your child.
They're usually bigger than standard pushchairs and may be difficult to fit in the trunk of your car. They are also more expensive than other pushchairs. Be aware of this as you shop for a new one.
It is recommended to choose a model that has adjustable height bars. This will be helpful for those who have different heights. You should consider whether you need an adjustable wrist strap to keep it from falling off when you go down slopes or hills. Some models have a fixed wheel at the front, which makes it more manageable when you are jogging. Some models have an swivel wheel that can be locked into place to help you maneuver on uneven surfaces.
The type of tyre is also important. A lot of all-terrain strollers have air-filled tires that provide an enjoyable ride, but they can puncture. Some pushchairs feature a foam- or gel-filled tire, which is less likely to puncture. However, it will increase the weight of the pushchair.
A quality all-terrain stroller will include a large, spacious basket that is ideal for carrying your baby's groceries. Some models have a compact, single-handed fold that allows for easy storage when not in use. It is common to find raincovers and footmuffs included as well.
The Mamas & Papas Ocarro is one of our most loved all terrain pushchairs. It won the Mother and Baby Gold Award in 2017. The dual suspension can handle rough terrain, allowing you to take your child for walks on all-terrain surfaces and even run with it (once your child is old enough). It is suitable from birth and features a fully reclined seat and can be used as a travel system with an infant car seat or carrycot.
Folding
The majority of pushchairs fold. They are easy to store at home, and can easily be inserted into the car's boot. This is a great option for cars with boot spaces that are small, or if plan to travel frequently with your family.
There are a variety of folds, so choose one that best suits your lifestyle and needs. For instance some of the most recent buggy models come with a revolutionary auto-fold that folds down by itself with a simple pressing. This lets you hold your baby as well as other children or bags with both hands. It's also ideal for parents with back problems or who are recovering from C-sections.
Some models fold more conventionally with the seat in place. 3 wheel pushchair are slightly heavier and may not fit as well in your vehicle's boot. Some models require two or more hands to fold, which can be a problem if need to fold it while holding onto your child.
It's important to check that the stroller is capable of handling the terrain on which you plan to use it. If you plan to navigate lots of cobblestones or gravel tracks, then tyres with air will provide a more comfortable ride.
If you'll be using your pushchair mostly on paved roads and pavements then most three-wheelers have moulded wheels which will give your child an easy ride. If you're taking your little one off-road or over rough terrain, go for a model with a set of removable guards for mud and a quick-release front wheel to keep your pushing kit looking its best.
