Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain pushchair that offers lightweight durability and great maneuverability. Its compact one-hand fold makes it's easy to transport and also freestanding when folded. The padded seat reclines to a nearly flat position and there's a giant storage bin and canopy. Baby-friendly? Yes and with a carrycot.
Air-filled tyres and a good suspension can handle rough terrain. It's also suitable for jogging, although you should wait until your baby is six or nine months old to do this.
Ickle Bubba XL Air
This pushchair from Ickle Bubba is a great option for parents looking for an easy-to-use buggy that has enhanced features. The travel system includes a lie flat carrycot for infants as well as a multi-position rear and forward facing seat for the pushchair.
The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It's easy to comprehend why it has received the highest praise from customers. It's incredibly light - the chassis and wheels weigh just 6.5kg - and it's also extremely simple to put together. In fact I was able to complete the entire setup and running in less than five minutes, which is pretty amazing considering that it also included the tying of the fabric to the carrycot!
The seat is wide and comfortable for Annie who is 12 months old. The recline lever was simple to operate. The basket has plenty of space and I find it nice that the handle bar has a pocket to keep your keys and phone safe.
The handlebar is low, which can be an issue for parents who are taller. However, it's coated with a luxurious leather-like material that's soft and comfortable and cleans down easily, so it's still easy to push with bags and children in your hands!
Hauck Pushchair Runner
The Runner is designed for active parents who are eager to get outside and explore. The large pneumatic wheels are able to be used on field and forest trails. The front wheel is lockable and can be swiveled to allow for greater versatility. It also comes with a padded 5-point safety harness as well as a front bar to keep your little one safe throughout your journey and the parking brake is able to stop the stroller from moving even when you take a break. The seat can be adjusted to lay down and the canopy can be opened to allow maximum air circulation on hot days. The handle can be height-adjusted by more than 30 centimeters to accommodate dad's or mom's heights.
Whether you're going for a quick jog or a longer hike The Runner will be there to accompany you on all your adventures with a fully-flat lie-flat seat and suspension air wheels that promise smooth, safe ride. The front wheel can be locked to provide more stability on narrow streets or crowded sidewalks. The stroller can also fold up to fit into car boot spaces and storage areas.
Some parents have found the Runner 2 to be a little more difficult to navigate than its predecessor, and the locking mechanism is less user-friendly (requiring two buttons on the opposite side of the push bar). The handlebar is a little higher than other strollers', so it might not work for smaller parents however, overall it's an extremely sturdy and flexible stroller worth a look for families with active children.
Red Kite Push Me walking
Red Kite's Pace is a great product from the budget-friendly British brand. They are known for their clean, well-designed products that are essentials for parents. 3 wheel pushchair 's the newest - and priciest - version of their bargain light stroller collection. It's also like the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo it's car seat-compatible so that you can use it from the beginning (the carrycot folds away).
The new Pace features some stunning design elements, like the rose gold tint of the chassis, hood and stroller trims, which truly distinguish it from its competition. The cream, grey, and tan fabrics on the stroller and the car seat are super elegant and there is the option of adding an coordinating handle for the cover and bumper bar too.
The stroller seat can be used from birth to 22kg. It easily converts into a reversible 2-in-1 position, either facing the parent or world-facing. The stroller seat has multi lie back positions, soft padded leg rest support and an extendable sun canopy featuring hidden zip sections, a see through flap and an adjustable sun visor.
When folded, the Pace measures 56 33cm x 43cm x 32cm which allows it to be used as hand luggage on Easyjet and Ryanair. It's also a breeze to collapse, with two buttons on either side of the handlebar that just need to be pressed in and then pop out.
Bugaboo Fox 5
Designed to be the ultimate all-terrain pushchair, Bugaboo's latest Fox 5 promises to do everything. Its unique chassis comes with shorter wheel length which makes it easier to maneuver than its predecessor. I tried it out with my two kids one of whom is eight weeks old and the other toddler - on rough pavements along with grassy wooded trails and even cobblestones.
The large puncture-proof wheels, which measure 22cm or 30cm in size - can handle different terrains. They also have a handy flap that can open or closes to allow more air in if you need it, which is a nice touch. It's a little larger than some pushchairs but does not feel heavy or bulky when you're pushing it across bumpy surfaces.
The seat fabric is machine washable and the frame and faux leather grips are simple to wipe down. It's also much quieter than many pushchairs and I felt safe using it in busy city streets. One of the advantages is that it has integrated accessory points, which means you can put in footmuffs, parasols, changing bags and even a tray for snacks. The hood can be used to block the elements of wind and rain, but it's not waterproof. It's a single stroller, but you can add their Comfort Wheeled Board (not included) to give your child some extra legroom. The bassinet took 20 minutes to set-up and about the same amount of time to convert it into a seat.
UPPAbaby Ridge
No matter if you're enjoying a morning jog under the stars or taking a moonlit stroll in the crisp air, the UPPAbaby Ridge transforms every moment into a shared experience. This all-terrain jogging stroller has been designed to perform to keep you and your child active.
The massive 12" and 16" foam-filled tires offer a smooth ride, no matter the terrain. The suspension technology is patent-pending, allowing you to glide over paths in the woods with less impact on your child's legs as well as rear. The durable hand brake that is a performance disc lets you to stop quickly, even while running downhill.
From bustling farmers markets to street musicians playing a tune The Ridge can navigate all your city's most popular scenes with ease. Its spacious basket accommodates your finds from the market and everything else your baby needs, while the roomy canopy offers sun and wind protection. The front canopy can be opened to reveal two mesh peekaboos that allow you to watch your baby.
The Ridge's reversible seating allows you to decide if your child is facing you or the world that lies ahead and its easy foot brake system is intuitive for new parents. The reversible handlebar on the back is a great feature that allows you to adjust it to suit your height. And unlike some jogging strollers The Ridge's fold is solid and self-standing when folded.
