3 Wheel Pushchairs
The 3 Wheel Pushchair is an excellent option for parents who are always in motion. These strollers are designed for easy movement, whether you're navigating through busy streets or narrow aisles in a store.
The striking Peach 3 Blossom All Terrain pram was the highlight of the iCandy booth. It is suitable from birth and has air-filled tires. 3 wheel strollers can be folded in one hand.
Manoeuvrability
A three-wheel pushchair is a great choice for urban environments where manoeuvring through narrow streets and narrow supermarket aisles is a regular part of your routine. The front wheels that rotate on these models can be locked to provide stability for non-paved surfaces such as grass and mud. These models also have excellent suspension systems that absorb the bumps and jarring of uneven surfaces to give your child a smooth ride even on rough terrain.
Some pushchairs with three wheels can be controlled with only one hand or with a minimum effort, making them ideal for busy life and for mothers who want to move quickly, while keeping their child safe in the seat. They are often folded in one hand too, which makes them easy to put in the boot of your car. Some can be folded so that they stand up which makes them more convenient to carry on public transport.
If you intend to use your buggy outside of urban areas, it is important to choose a model that has air-filled tyres (often called pneumatic tyres) instead of moulded ones. They are suitable for roads and pavements but will not be able to perform well on dirt roads like mud or grass. If you are planning to jog with your child, select the model with a big and movable front wheel.
Maxi-Cosi's Peach 3 Blossom in silver is a chic, 3-wheel stroller that is able to be used on any terrain. It also looks fantastic. 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's also available in a variety of colours to suit all tastes and budgets.
Stability
The type of wheels you choose will be important if you are planning to take your pushchair on rough terrain or off-road. Larger wheels give you a more comfortable ride, and can help you navigate obstacles like stones or kerbs. Some models also feature a lockable front wheel to provide extra stability on uneven ground.
Alternatively, you can choose a pushchair that is filled with foam, never-flat tyres that will be more puncture-resistant than regular rubber tyres. They might have a more expensive price than air-filled tyres, but they will save you the expense of replacing tyres as well as the time it takes for them to be replaced at the garage or at a service station.
If you plan 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 if you will be carrying heavy bags or walking through dirt. Some manufacturers have designed their pushchairs to have a centre of gravity that is closer to the seat to ensure that the weight is not on the rear wheels.
Some models can be used both off-road and in towns. They are perfect for a stroll along woodland trails or on sandy beaches. For example, the iCandy Core has a wheelbase which is larger than a standard pushchair and 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 perfect for long walks over uneven or bumpy terrain. These pushchairs are made with larger wheels to allow for off-road travel. They also come with suspension and a hand brake on the right side of the frame to ensure that you can't accidentally kick it by kicking it with your foot.
All-terrain buggies can be heavier and bulkier than four-wheeled buggies. Be sure that they'll fit in your car boot prior to you purchase. They're also typically larger than other pushchairs, which makes them more difficult to maneuver through narrow aisles in shops and other spaces. However, many models fold flat and are freestanding when folded - perfect for storage and travelling.

Whether you're taking your baby for a stroll through the park, or taking errands around town, there is sure to be a pushchair 3 wheel model that is suitable for your lifestyle and travel requirements. These models are simple to maneuver in tight spaces thanks to their superior maneuverability.
