Three Wheeler Pushchairs

Three wheeled pushchairs are the ideal option for parents who love to run or who are in search of strollers that can withstand different terrains. They're easy to maneuver and fold easily for transport or storage.

With one front wheel that is able to swivel, they're easy to turn in tight spaces and make supermarket corners a breeze. Make sure you choose models that have air-filled tyres to overcome bumpy tracks and pavements.

Strollers

There's a vast selection of strollers on the market that are designed to meet different needs. Some strollers are designed to accommodate multiple infants (twins, or children with a tiny age difference) and others are specifically designed for singletons. The others are designed to fit children from birth to age four. Many of them have safety guidelines to be adhered to, for example - any child seat or carrycot has to be secured and must not be more than 20cm away from the edge of the frame.

Three wheel pushchairs typically have a single front wheel making them more maneuverable than other models. This makes them ideal for narrow aisles and streets in shops where space is limited. If you plan to use your stroller in a variety of different environments, think about an all-terrain pushchair. They're built with tyres made of tough rubber that can handle rough terrain and bumps more easily than regular strollers. Some models have suspensions to make the ride more comfortable for your baby or toddler.

Some all-terrain strollers are designed to function as jogging buggies well. This is an excellent option for parents who want to exercise and take their child for a walk or jog. These pushchairs typically have a larger frame and tyres than a regular stroller, and they can have features like an adjustable handlebar or handbrake.

If you're planning to run with your stroller, it's worth having a test drive in order to see how you like the ride and how easy it is to control. You'll need to decide if you prefer foam-filled or air-filled tyres. Air-filled tyres tend to be more durable but they're also more susceptible to punctures. You'll require a repair kit keep in your bag.

For a stylish and flexible option, look at the new 3-wheel pushchairs from iCandy. They come with amazing all-terrain features such as suspension systems, large puncture-proof tyres and an adjustable handlebar to suit both dads and mums. They are also in compliance with the EU REACH regulations and are low in lead, phthalates and other chemicals.

Joggers

If you're a jogger (or buggy runner) or want to be a buggy runner, you'll need a pushchair with three wheels that is specifically designed for running. They have bigger wheels than standard strollers, and a suspension that is specially designed to withstand bumps and uneven sidewalks. These are also more heavy and bulkier than traditional strollers, which makes them unsuitable for everyday use unless you intend to take a short run.

The Mountain Buggy Terrain jogger is one of the most sought-after 3 wheel stroller with car seat-wheelers available on the market. It is a perfect blend of control and precision control to get active with refined styling and excellent manoeuvrability within the city. It's the ideal vehicle for the parent who is a dedicated runner but also would like to keep their child close by and comfortable for long walks or errands.

There are other great joggers that can be used for daily strolling, such as the UPPAbaby Ridge Stroller Jake and the Baby Jogger City Elite 2 Stroller Jet. These are tyres with air-filled tires, which give a very smooth ride, but are susceptible to punctures and you'll need to carry an extra. Some have heavy-duty or adjustable suspension to make the ride smoother on rough terrain.

Depending on the age of your child, you may be able to make the transition from using a carrycot or infant car seat into one of these strollers without much trouble. However, it's best to talk to your pediatrician first, especially when they advise waiting until your child is at minimum 6 months old.

You can also purchase the jogger, and include a car seat adapter compatible with it. For instance the phil&teds Sport buggy can be turned into a 2-in-1 travel system with an infant car seat, so you can take your child on runs or walks from day 1.

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is a stylish yet practical 3 wheel tandem stroller-wheeler which can be used for casual strolling and light jogging. It's an excellent choice for parents who are active and fashionable and can fit carseats from birth (with the optional City infant car seat adapter). It comes with air-filled tyres as well as 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth recline positions, so your child will be able to enjoy a comfortable ride, and it folds down in a snap.

All-terrain

All-terrain prams are a great option if you like walking off the beaten track, live in rural areas, or want to run with your child. The best all-terrain prams will have big, rugged wheels that can cope with bumpy terrain and a great suspension to ensure a comfortable ride for your baby.

They're generally larger than standard pushchairs and could be a hassle to fit into your car boot. They are also more expensive than other pushchairs. Be aware of this when you are shopping around.

You should choose one that has an adjustable bar that can be adjusted in height. This will be helpful if you and/or your partner have different heights. It is also worth considering whether you want a wrist strap, which reduces the possibility of it slipping off on sloping ground or crossing hills. Some models have a fixed wheel at the front, which makes it more stable when you're jogging. Some models come with an swivel wheel that can be locked into place to help you move over uneven surfaces.

The type of tyre you choose is equally important. Many all-terrain strollers are equipped with air-filled tires, which offer an easy ride, but are also prone to puncturing. Some pushchairs have the gel- or foam-filled tire that is less likely to puncture. However, it will add weight to the pushchair.

A good quality pushchair for all-terrain use will come with a large, well-stocked basket which will be handy for carrying baby's groceries. Some models will come with a convenient, compact fold that is one-hand to make it easier to store it away when not being used. They usually come with raincovers and footmuffs included as well.

One of our top all-terrain pushchairs is the Mamas & Papas Ocarro, which was awarded an award for the Mother and Baby Gold Award for 2017. Dual suspension lets you take your child on a stroll across the entire terrain and even jog with it once your child is old. It is suitable from birth and features a fully reclined seat and can be used as a travel system that includes an infant car seat or carrycot attached.

Folding

Some of the most common pushchairs fold. They take up less space in your home and are more convenient to put in the boot of your car and are ideal for those who are short on space, have a small car boot or are planning to travel a lot as with your family.

There are many kinds of folds, so pick one that fits your lifestyle and needs. For example some of the most recent buggy models have a groundbreaking auto-fold that collapses at the simple press of a button. This lets you hold your child or other children, or even bags with both hands. It is also ideal for parents with back issues or are recovering from C-sections.

Other models are designed to fold more conventionally, with the seat still in place, which means they'll be heavier and might not be as comfortable to fit in your car or boot. Some models will require two hands or more to fold. This could pose a problem for parents who want to hold their child while folding.

It is essential to ensure whether the pushchair is capable of handling the terrain on which you plan to use it. For instance, if you'll be driving through lots of cobblestones and gravel tracks, make sure the wheels are made of air-filled tyres that will provide the most comfortable ride for your baby.

If you'll be using your pushchair mainly on paved roads and pavements the majority of three-wheelers come with moulded wheels that give your child a smooth ride. However, if you'll be traveling with your baby off-road or on dirt opt for one equipped with removable guards for mud and a quick-release front wheel that will help keep your pushing kit looking its best.
