The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

A three-wheeled buggy is ideal for those who walk a lot on rough terrain or run. They are the best 3 wheel buggy option if you need a pushchair that can tackle any terrain, from busy roads to forest tracks.

Look for designs with front wheels that can be locked or swivelled. This will give you more flexibility. Front and rear wheels that are bigger offer the most comfortable ride on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the major advantages of a three wheel pushchair. The wheels are set close to each other, which allows the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a standard four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy streets and shopping. Some models have smaller front wheels that are locked and swivelled for additional maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels at the front that are positioned close together and a smart lock that allows it to be as solid as a 3-wheeler while still allowing for the same maneuverability.

A majority of our top-selling 3 wheelers come with a 4-in-1 travel systems which can change from stroller to toddler seat and car seat carrier as your child grows. This is ideal if you're planning on travelling as a family or for frequent trips to the shops. 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 all terrains.

Another option is the ickle Bubba Nipper, a pushchair that is all-terrain with a great suspension and large puncture-proof tyres, which make it suitable for off-road excursions as well as smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the seat unit that is reversible or with a compatible carrycot) and features a handy one-handed fold that is ideal for storage in the boot and airport travel.

The right wheels for your pushchair is important depending on where you'll be using it most. Moulded wheels work well in the city but not on more rough terrain. If you intend to take your pushchair off pavements you should choose tyres that are filled with air, sometimes known as pneumatic tyres that are capable of coping with rough terrain.

For a model of pushchair that is built to be able to handle both urban and rural environments, take a look at our top-rated Bugaboo 5 All-Terrain pushchair.

Stability

You can improve the stability of your buggy by searching for certain features. For instance, certain models feature a swivelling front wheel that can lock into place to give you extra stability when driving on rough terrain. This is especially helpful for those who plan to use your pushchair to jog or off-road. It will give you confidence to take on different terrains.

Another great stability feature is suspension. It will make your baby's buggy more comfortable for both you and baby particularly on uneven ground. Some brands also allow you to swap out different tyres to allow you to tailor the performance of your pushchair according to the terrain you'll be taking it on.

You should consider investing in a three-wheeled pushchair with tires that are filled with air for a pushchair that can handle any terrain. These wheels will provide a smoother ride on bumps and are less likely to be punctured than solid wheels. They will also allow you to ride on tracks that are not paved and will transport your buggy across a variety of surfaces including grass, sand, and mud.

Weight

The disadvantage of 3-wheeled pushchairs is that they can be quite heavy, particularly when navigating bumpy ground and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a 3 Wheel Baby Strollers-wheeler contribute to the overall weight, making it heavier than a 4-wheeler. This means that you'll require more strength to lift them.
