3 Wheel Pushchairs

If you're a keen jogger or simply looking for a stroller that is more flexible, 3 wheel pushchairs have everything. Three-wheel prams, that have air-filled tires instead of the massive wheels commonly used on jogging buggies made for paved roads, can be used to navigate woodland trails and cobbled streets.

Stability

Many parents are turned off by three wheel pushchairs because of reports of them tipping over, but this is often down to poor or shoddy models. When you are choosing a 3-wheeler, it is crucial to test how stable the buggy is by attempting it in the real world. Also, you should consider how it is easy to change direction or swerve using the front wheel alone and how quickly it can be done.

If you're planning on using your pushchair off-road, opt for a model with air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) which can withstand rough terrain. These tyres are more resistant to bumps and bumps on muddy pathways or gravel roads than plastic wheels. They provide a smoother ride for your baby. Some models come with a lockable front wheel that can be used when riding on rough terrain too.

All-terrain pushchairs tend to be heavier than standard four-wheeled buggies, so you may have to think about how much space they'll occupy in your car boot and whether you'll be able to lift it up and down the stairs when folded. It may be difficult to lift them, so you should try one out in person to gauge how heavy they are.
