Three Wheeler Pushchairs
If you’re a busy parent who enjoys jogging or searching for a stroller which can take on a variety of terrains, three-wheeler pushchairs are a great option. They are easy to move and fold easily for storage or transport.
They are easy to maneuver in tight spaces, and supermarket corners become a breeze with their swivel wheel on the front. Make sure you choose models that have air-filled tyres to overcome bumpy tracks and pavements.
Strollers
There are many strollers to choose from that are designed to meet the needs of a particular group of people. Some strollers are made to accommodate multiple infants (twins, or children with a small age difference) and others are for singletons. The rest are designed to fit children aged from birth to four. Some of these products have safety guidelines which must be adhered to. For instance the child’s seat or carrying cot must be secured properly and not be more than 20cm from the frame’s edge.
three wheel pushchairs (More Help) usually have a single wheel on the front, making them more maneuverable than other models. This makes them ideal for narrow streets or aisles in shops where space is at a premium. Consider an all-terrain stroller when you intend to use it in different settings. Designed with tough tyres, they can tackle bumps and rough terrain more easily than a standard stroller. Some strollers have suspensions to make the ride more comfortable.
Some all-terrain strollers are built to function as jogging buggies well. This is great for parents who wish to stay active and enjoy a vigorous walk or jog with their child in tow. These pushchairs have a larger frame, tyres and wheels than the stroller. They can also come with an adjustable handlebar and handbrake.
If you’re planning to run with your stroller, it’s worth having a test drive in order to see how you feel about the ride and how it’s easy to manage. You’ll also need to decide which type of tyres you prefer, whether they’re filled with air or foam. Air-filled tyres are generally more durable, but they’re also susceptible to punctures, so you’ll need an repair kit on hand.

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 jogging. These pushchairs have larger wheels than traditional strollers, and a suspension designed specifically to withstand bumps and uneven sidewalks. They are also heavier and bulkier than traditional strollers, making them unsuitable for everyday use unless you plan to go on an occasional run.
The Mountain Buggy Terrain jogger is one of the most sought-after twin 3 wheel stroller-wheelers available on the market.

You might be able, depending on your child’s age and development, to move easily from the carrycot to a jogging or jogging stroller. It’s best to consult your pediatrician prior to purchasing a jogging stroller especially if your doctor recommends waiting until your child is 6 months old.
You can also buy an jogger and add an adapter for car seats compatible with it. The phil&teds Sport buggy, for example is able to be converted into a 2-in-1 system with an infant seat, allowing you to take your baby for walks or runs from the beginning of their life.

All-terrain
All-terrain prams are a great option if you love taking a walk off the beaten track or are in rural areas, or want to jog with your baby. The best all-terrain strollers will feature large, sturdy wheels capable of coping with bumpy terrain and a great suspension to make your child’s journey comfortable.
These are usually larger than standard pushchairs, and may be difficult to store in the trunk of your car. These pushchairs are also more expensive than other pushchairs. Keep this in mind when shopping around.
You should look for models that have a height-adjustable bar. This will be helpful when you and/or your companion have different heights. You should also consider whether you’d like a wrist strap, which minimises the risk of it rolling across the ground on sloping surfaces or going over hills. Some models have a fixed wheel at the front, which is more manageable when you’re running. Some models have a swivel front wheel that can be locked into place to help you manoeuvre on uneven surfaces.
The type of tire is equally important. Many all-terrain strollers are equipped with air-filled tires, which offer a smooth ride, but are also prone to puncturing. Some come with an inflated tyre that is filled with gel or foam, which are less prone to puncture, but they will add extra weight to the pushchair.
A good all-terrain stroller will include a large, spacious basket that is useful to carry your baby’s food. Some models will come with a convenient compact 3 wheel stroller fold that is one-hand to make it easier to put it away when not in use. It is common to find an umbrella and a footmuff too.

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
Many of the most well-known pushchairs are folding models. They are smaller in your home and are also easier to put in the trunk of your car which is ideal if you’re short on storage or have a small car boot or are planning on doing lots of travelling as with your family.
There are several different fold types, so search for one that is suited to your lifestyle and needs. Many of the newest buggy models feature an auto-fold, which can be folded in a matter of the push of a button. This allows you to hold your child or other children, or even bags with both hands. It’s also ideal for parents who have back problems or who are recovering from C-sections.
Some models fold more conventionally with the seat on. This means that they are a bit bulkier and might not fit as snugly in your boot or vehicle. Some models will require two hands or more to fold. This could be an issue for parents who wish to hold their child while folding.
It is essential to ensure that the stroller is suitable for the terrain you plan to use it. For example, if you’ll be navigating many cobblestones or gravel tracks, make sure the wheels are made from air-filled tyres for an easier ride for your baby.
If you intend to use your pushchair primarily on roads that are paved or pavements and roads, then the majority of three-wheelers have moulded tires that will allow your child to enjoy a smooth ride. If you’re taking your child off-road or on dirt choose one that comes with a set of movable or quick-release front wheel that will help keep your pushchair looking its best.
