3 Wheel Pushchairs Three wheel pushchairs are ideal for anyone who is a jogger, or just wants a more versatile stroller. Contrary to jogging buggies that typically have large wheels specifically made for pavements, three wheel prams with tyres that are filled with air can handle the woods and market town cobbles alike. Large wheels, however, could make some models heavy and bulky so check that it folds down compactly and doesn't take up all the space in your boot. Stability Parents are often put off by the stories of three-wheel pushchairs that tip over. This is usually due to cheap or poorly constructed models. It is important to test the stability of a 3-wheeler by putting it through its paces. Also, you should consider how easy it is to shift direction or swerve using the single front wheel and how quick it can be done. If you're planning to take your pushchair off-road, opt for a model with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) which can withstand rough terrain. These tyres are able to take the bumps and sloughs of muddy trails or gravel tracks better than plastic moulded wheels that give your child an enjoyable ride. Some models have an adjustable front wheel that can be used when you're riding on rough terrain as well. All-terrain pushchairs are heavier than standard four-wheeled buggies which is why you'll need to think about the amount of space they'll take up in your car boot and whether you'll be capable of lifting it up and down stairs when folded. It could be a challenge to lift them, so you should try one out in person to see how heavy they are. UPPAbaby's Ridge is an example of a three-wheel pram that is stable, maneuverable and suitable for off-roading with the car seat attachment. It has a world-facing seat that can be attached either to an UPPAbaby Carrycot or infant car seats can be added with adaptors. Its large rear wheels come with the 'never-flat' tyres filled with foam that make it easy to navigate through rough terrain. The smooth suspension and adjustable handlebar ensure that your baby or toddler will be at ease. Manoeuvrability With two wheels at the rear and a single wheel at the front, 3 wheel pushchairs are able to move and turn faster than 4-wheeled pushchairs. They are great for navigating narrow city streets and the crowded aisles of supermarkets. Many 3-wheeled pushchairs come with a lock feature on the front wheel to enhance their ability to navigate narrow spaces and corners. Another advantage of a 3-wheel pushchair is that they can tackle off-road terrain more effectively than standard strollers or prams.
