The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair
A
three wheeler pushchairs-wheeled buggy is ideal for those who regularly walk on uneven terrain or jog. They are the best choice for those who need a buggy to handle any terrain, from busy streets to forest tracks.
Find models with front wheels that can be locked or swivelled. This gives you more flexibility. Front and rear wheels that are larger offer an easier ride on different surfaces.
Manoeuvrability
Manoeuvrability is one of the key benefits of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are set close together allowing the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair. This makes them perfect for busy streets and shops. Some have small front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to give them extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels at the front that are placed close together, and a clever lock that allows it to be as solid as a
3 Wheel All Terrain Buggy-wheeler while maintaining the same maneuverability.
Many of our most popular
3 wheeled travel system wheelers can be converted from pram, stroller, toddler seat and car-seat carrier as your child develops. This is great when you plan to travel together as a family, or make frequent trips to the store. The Baby Jogger Nipper is a perfect illustration. It features Hauck airwheels XL and a 360-degree lockable swivel wheel and a suspension that lets it be used on any terrain.
The ickle bubbling Nipper is another alternative. It's an all-terrain stroller, with large puncture-proof tyres as well as a great suspension that allows it to be used for both off-road adventures as well as smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the seat that can be reversible, or with a carrycot that is compatible) and comes with a convenient one-handed instant fold for storage in the boot and airport travel.
Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is crucial depending on where you'll use it the most. Moulded wheels are ideal for the city but not on more rugged terrain. If you intend to move your pushchair off roads, you should consider pneumatic tyres. They are able to handle rough terrain.
For a model of pushchair that is designed to handle both urban and rural environments 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 an all-terrain pushchair, but it's also a city pushchair that is extremely light with a lockable front wheel.
Stability
You can improve the stability of your buggy by looking for specific features. For instance, some models feature a swivelling front wheel that can be locked in place to provide extra stability on rough terrain. This is especially helpful for those who plan to use your pushchair for jogging or off-road. It will give you confidence to navigate on different surfaces.
Suspension is a great feature for stability. It can make your buggy more comfortable ride, both for you and your baby especially on uneven terrain. Some brands offer the option to swap out tyres with different sizes to allow you to tailor the performance of your pushchair to suit the terrain you will be riding it on.
If you're in the market for a 3 wheeled pushchair that is able to perform on any terrain, consider buying a model that has air-filled tyres. These will provide a more comfortable ride over bumps and are less vulnerable to punctures than solid wheels. They will also allow you to navigate tracks that aren't paved and will carry your buggy over various surfaces, including grass, sand, and mud.

Weight
The drawback of strollers with three wheels is that they're heavy, particularly if you are required to traverse bumpy terrain and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a
3 wheel stroller for running-wheeler increase the overall weight, which is higher than the 4-wheeler. This means you'll need more strength when lifting them.
