3 Wheel Pushchairs
3 Wheel Pushchairs are a practical solution for parents on the go. These strollers are designed for ease of mobility, whether you're walking through busy streets or narrow aisles in a store.
The striking Peach 3 Blossom All Terrain pram was a highlight of the iCandy booth. The pram is suitable for babies from birth. It comes with air-filled tyres as well as a quick one-hand fold.
Manoeuvrability
A 3 wheeled pushchair is a great choice for urban environments, where you have to navigate through narrow streets or aisles in supermarkets every day. The front wheels that swivel on these models can be locked to add stability on surfaces that are not paved such as mud or grass. These models also come with superb suspension systems that absorb the bumps and jarring of uneven surfaces, ensuring your baby a comfortable ride even on rough terrain.
Some 3-wheel pushchairs can be moved using just one hand or with a minimum effort. This is great for busy mums and for those who need to move quickly, while keeping their child safe in the seat. Many can be folded with only one hand, making them easy to put in the trunk of a car. Some can be folded in such a way that they stand upright, making them more convenient to carry on public transportation.
If you intend to use your pushchair in areas outside of urban areas, choose one that has air-filled tyres. These are better for roads that are paved and pavements however they are not capable of handling unpaved surfaces like mud or grass. If you plan to run with your child, go for an all-terrain pushchair that is large and highly manoeuvrable front wheel.
Maxi-Cosi's Peach 3 Blossom in silver is a chic, 3-wheel stroller that can be used on any terrain. It also looks great. It is suitable from birth with the carrycot, and up to 22kg, it comes with air-filled tyres, a simple one-hand fold and 3 recline positions. It comes in a range of colors that will fit every taste and budget.
Stability
The kind of wheels you pick is crucial if you plan to take your pushchair across rough terrain or off-road. Larger wheels give you a more comfortable ride, and can help you navigate obstacles like kerbs or stones. Some models also have a lockable front wheel to give you additional stability when riding on uneven terrain.
You can also choose a pushchair that has foam-filled never-flat tyres, which are more puncture-resistant than standard rubber tyres. These tyres may cost a bit more than air-filled ones, but you'll save money on tyres that need to be replaced and time spent waiting at the garage or at the service station.
A single front wheel can be a disadvantage if you plan to take your pushchair over rough terrain or over steep or uneven surfaces, especially when you'll be carrying bags or walking through a thick mud. Some manufacturers have designed their pushchairs to feature a centre of gravity that is closer to the seat to keep the weight off the rear wheels.
Some models are made to be used off-road as well as in towns, making them ideal for walking through woodland trails or along sandy beaches. For example, the iCandy Core has a wheelbase which is larger than a standard pushchair, and has larger wheels that according to MFM reviewer Tara, "perform really well on gravel tracks, grass and cobbles from the market town."
All-terrain strollers that have good suspension are perfect for long walks over uneven or bumpy terrain. These pushchairs have larger wheels that are ideal for off-road use. They also come with suspension and hand brakes on the right side of the frame so that you don't kick it with your foot.
All-terrain buggies may be heavier and bulkier than four-wheeled buggies. Make sure they're able to fit into your car boot before you purchase. They're also generally larger than other pushchairs, which can make them more difficult to maneuver in tight spaces and aisles in shops. However most models fold flat and can be freestanding when folded - perfect for storage and travelling.
