The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

A three-wheeled pushchair is ideal if you walk regularly on uneven terrain or jog. They are ideal if you need a buggy that can take on any terrain, from busy high streets to tracks in the woods.

Find models with front wheels that can be locked or rotated. This gives you more flexibility. The rear and front wheels that are larger offer the most comfortable riding on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is a major advantages of a three wheel pushchair. The wheels are close together and allow the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy shops and streets. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra manoeuvrability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example has two wheels placed close together in front and an ingenious swivel lock that gives the ability to maneuver like a 3-wheeler, but with added stability.

A lot of our top-selling 3 wheelers are also 4-in-1 travel systems that can convert from stroller to pram to a toddler seat or car seat carrier as your child grows. This is great for those who plan to travel with your family or taking frequent trips to the shops. The Baby Jogger Nipper is a perfect illustration. It features Hauck XL airwheels, a 360-degree swivel lockable wheel, and a suspension that allows it to be used on all terrains.

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

Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is essential dependent on the location you'll use it the most. Moulded wheels work well in the city, but not on rougher terrain. If you're planning to take your pushchair off pavements you should choose tyres that are filled with air also known as pneumatic tyres that are able to cope with rough terrain.

Stability

There are many features that you can look out for that will enhance the stability of your buggy. Certain models have an swiveling front wheel that is locked to give extra stability on rough terrain. This is particularly useful when you intend to use your pushchair for jogging or off-road. It will give you confidence to take on different terrains.

Another excellent stability feature is suspension. It will make your baby's buggy more comfortable for both you and baby particularly on uneven ground. Some brands even allow you to swap out different tyres so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair to the terrain you will be taking it on.

If you're in the market for a 3 wheeled pushchair that will perform well on any terrain, you should consider purchasing a model with air-filled tyres. These wheels will provide smoother rides over bumps, and are less likely to puncture than solid wheels. They will also allow you to ride on tracks that are not paved and will transport your buggy over various surfaces, including dirt, grass, sand and mud.

Weight

The disadvantage of 3 wheel twin stroller-wheeled pushchairs is that they can be heavy, particularly when navigating bumpy ground and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a 3 Wheel Umbrella Stroller-wheeler increase the overall weight, which is higher than a 4-wheeler. This means that you will need more strength to lift them.

The Core is a bit heavier than other pushchairs that are all-terrain, but it's light enough to be maneuverable on more rough terrain.

Folding
