3 Wheel Pushchairs
The 3 Wheel Pushchair is a fantastic option for parents who are always on the move. These strollers are designed for easy mobility, whether you're walking through busy city streets or narrow aisles in a store.
The eye-catching Peach 3 Blossom All Terrain pram was the highlight of the iCandy booth. It is suitable from birth and has air-filled tires. It can be folded in one hand.
Manoeuvrability
A 3-wheeled pushchair is the perfect option for urban environments, where you have to navigate through narrow streets or aisles in supermarkets on a daily basis. These models have swivelling wheels that can be locked for extra stability on surfaces that are not paved like grass and mud. These models also come with superb suspension systems that absorb the bumps and jarring of uneven surfaces. This will ensure your child a smooth ride even on rough terrain.
Some pushchairs that have 3 wheels can be controlled with only one hand or with minimal effort making them great for hectic life and for mothers who want to move quickly while keeping their child safe in the seat. Some can be folded with only one hand making them easy to put in the car's boot. Some are able to be folded so that they stand upright which makes them easier to transport on public transportation.
If you will use your buggy outside of urban areas, it is recommended to select a model with air-filled tyres (often called pneumatic tyres) instead of moulded ones. These are suitable for pavements and paved tracks but won't be able to be able to handle unpaved terrain like mud or grass. If you plan to run around with your child, go for an all-terrain pushchair that features a large, well maneuverable front wheel.
For a stylish, 3-wheeled stroller that you can easily take on any terrain and that also looks the business, look no further than the sleek, silver-coloured Peach 3 Blossom from Maxi-Cosi. It is suitable from birth with the carrycot and up to 22kg, it comes with air-filled tyres and a quick fold that is one-handed and three recline positions. It's also available in a variety of colours to suit every taste and budget.
Stability
The type of wheels you choose will be important if you intend to take your pushchair over rough terrain or off-road. Larger wheels provide a smoother ride, and can help you navigate obstructions like kerbs or stones. Some models also feature a lockable front wheel to give you additional stability when riding on uneven terrain.
You can also opt for a pushchair with foam-filled never-flat tyres, which are more puncture-resistant than regular rubber tyres. These tyres might cost more than those with air filled tyres, however, you'll save money on tyres replacement and time spent waiting at the garage or at the service station.
If you intend to take your pushchair on rough terrain or on hilly or uneven surfaces, a single front wheel may be an issue. This is especially the case in the case of carrying heavy bags or walking through dirt. Some manufacturers have overcome this issue by constructing their pushchairs with an incline that's located closer to the seat, to spread the weight over the rear wheels.
Some models can be used off-road and in towns. They're great for a stroll through woodland trails or along sandy beaches. For example the iCandy Core has a wheelbase that is longer than a standard pushchair, and has larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Tara, "perform really well on grass, gravel tracks and market town cobbles."
All-terrain strollers with good suspension are great for long walks on uneven or bumpy terrain. They're usually designed with larger rear and front wheels to cope with off-road travel, as well as suspension and a hand-operated brake on the right-hand side of the frame, so that it isn't likely to be kicked by your foot as you walk along.
All-terrain pushchairs are often larger and heavier than four-wheeled buggies So make sure they'll fit in your car's boot prior to making a purchase. They're also generally wider than other pushchairs, which can make them more difficult to manoeuvre in narrow spaces and aisles in shops. However most models fold flat and can be freestanding when collapsed - ideal for storage and travelling.
Versatility
There's a 3 wheel pushchair that will suit your travel and lifestyle needs whether you're taking your child for a stroll in the park or completing around town for errands. These models are easily maneuverable in tight spaces because of their excellent maneuverability.
If you're a more active person and love jogging with your child, think about a three-wheeler pram with a special suspension system that absorbs vibration and shock from uneven surfaces. This type of pushchair provides the perfect ride so your child can rest and take in the scenery.
All-terrain pushchairs with three wheels are an excellent option for those who love the outdoors, since they can easily navigate through sandy and gravel beaches. These pushchairs typically have larger wheels and more treads to withstand more challenging terrains and offer a more comfortable ride for your baby.
Most well-known for their car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently launched a brand new all-terrain pushchair called Stella that they describe as "a travel system that is an extension of you". Its unique design includes pewter black aluminum accents, a simple one-hand fold, a forward and rear-facing seat units - plus the ability to add a baby carrier and bassinet, this is a buggy for those who like to live in the middle of the road.
