If you intend to use your double buggy 3 wheels off paved tracks pick a model that is air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic). They are more efficient and puncture-proof even on non-paved surfaces.

Stability

In general, the larger the wheels on your pushchair is, the better it will deal with rough ground and terrain. This is because larger wheels have a greater contact surface, and are therefore less likely to skid over dips and bumps. They also offer a more comfortable ride for your child. The drawback is that the additional wheels are a burden on the car boot. Some models of pushchairs that have large front wheels must be removed to store them flat.

All-terrain pushchairs are built to be able to take on anything from high-street strolls to wooded walks, and come equipped with features that let them accomplish this, including strong suspension and large puncture-proof tyres. These models are generally more expensive however if your pushchair is frequently used outside of the main roads regularly, they may be worth the cost.

It's better to choose a pushchair equipped with pneumatic (or air-filled) tires if you intend to take it off pavements. They are better suited for rough terrain than tyres made of solid rubber. They are also less likely to break than those made of steel or hard plastic.

Certain models of pushchairs allow you to click off the front wheel when in use, which can make them easier to store - useful for those with a small car boot. Some models also feature a swivelling front wheel that can be locked to give stability over very rough ground. If you're thinking about buying a pushchair with this feature, make sure to check how easy it is to operate before you buy.

Certain models are designed for simple and quick modifications to the configuration, whereas others require more patience.

Manoeuvrability

A pushchair with three wheels is easier to steer and handle than a four-wheeler. The single front wheel allows you to easily navigate over bumps and rough terrain. A lot of models come with suspension systems, which are designed to help absorb shocks and ensure an enjoyable ride for your child. MFM's Kath tried a tri-wheeled buggie and was amazed by the ease with which it handled uneven pavements, cobblestones and dirt tracks. She was able to climb up and down kerbs and the wheels were quick to maneuver through grass.

There are three primary types of 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth wheel pushchair: strollers, joggers and all-terrain models. Strollers are ideal for urban environments due to their smaller frames and narrower wheels, while joggers come with large wheels and are designed to be used off-road. They typically feature a handbrake and adjustable handlebars, and are great for tackling off-road hikes.

All-terrain pushchairs are a favorite for parents who want to enjoy the outdoors and enjoy the countryside. They usually have larger and more sturdy wheels than regular pushchairs. They're ideal for rough terrain and are typically used from birth, although you may need to buy car seat adaptors if want to attach a compatible infant carrier.

Some pushchairs resemble 3-wheelers, but have four wheels. Two wheels are set close in front, instead of the traditional central pair. This allows for the manoeuvrability of a three-wheeler with the stability and security of a four wheeler.

Some 3-wheeled pushchairs come with an adjustable and lockable front wheel that makes them more mobile. This is especially useful when you have to navigate through rough terrain often, as you will avoid getting stuck or encountering obstacles to navigate around. Some all-terrain strollers are equipped with foam-filled "never flat" tyres, which do not require pumping. This makes them more comfortable and comfortable to use for long walks or for frequent use. It's important to note that these kinds of pushchairs tend to be heavier and bigger than other options, so it's important to consider how you'll be transporting or storing them when selecting the best model for you.

Weight

Generally speaking, 3-wheel pushchairs tend to be heavier and more spacious than standard pushchairs, especially when they have large back wheels. This can make it difficult to lift the pushchair once folded, such as when loading it into the car boot or going up steps. This makes the pushchair feel bulky and limit your ability to maneuver in narrow spaces or aisles.

All-terrain strollers are designed to be used on various terrains, including uneven and rough ground as well as mud and gravel paths. These pushchairs typically come with large, puncture-proof tyres as well as an extremely sturdy suspension system to provide a safe and comfortable ride for your child. They are typically expensive when compared to standard pushchairs.

If you reside in the countryside or frequently take your baby to walks in the woods or country parks A pushchair that is all-terrain could be a good option. These pushchairs are designed to be able to handle a variety of terrains, and will have large tyres on both the front and rear. They are an ideal choice for muddy or wet weather However, we suggest checking your tyres frequently to avoid air bubbles and flat spots.

The iCandy Core is a great all-terrain stroller that checks off all the boxes. It comes with a large basket that can hold up to 10kg, a single hand fold and adjustable handlebars. The large tyres are filled with foam tyres that are never flat. You don't have to worry about punctures.

The fabric can be removed from the frame and then washed with cold water with a machine.

Tyres

The tyres of a 3 wheel strollers-wheeled pushchair tend to be larger than those on a four-wheeled pushchair. This helps it to handle off-road terrain. The UPPAbaby Ridge, for example has tyres with large, foam-filled tyres that don't flatten, as well as suspension systems. This makes it suitable for long-distance walks on rough terrain. It's designed to be able to jog once your child is old enough. This is thanks to a 360-degree lockable front wheel, and an adjustable suspension.

However, larger tyres may increase the weight of the pushchair so you'll need to take this into account when selecting the model. You'll also have to decide if you'd like a model that has wheels that are removable so that it is easy to store in your car boot. MFM reviewer Becky particularly liked this feature because it made manoeuvring around supermarket corners much easier.
