A three-wheeled pushchair is ideal if you walk regularly on rough terrain or jog. They are a great option if require a vehicle that can take on any terrain from busy high streets to tracks in the woods.
To make your ride more maneuverable, look for a design with swivelling or lockable front wheels. Front and rear wheels that are larger also offer an easier ride on different surfaces.
Manoeuvrability
A 3 wheel pushchair is a fantastic option for those looking to be able to move easily. The wheels are positioned close to each other, allowing the chassis to move and turn much more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair, making them ideal for busy streets and shopping. Some models have smaller front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to give them extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned closely together at the front, and a clever lock that swivels to give it all the maneuverability of a 3-wheeler, but with added stability.
A lot of our top-selling 3 wheelers come with a 4-in-1 travel systems that can transform from a stroller to a toddler seat or car seat carrier as your child grows. This is a great option if you're planning on travelling with your family or taking frequent shopping trips. One such example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that comes with Hauck's XL air wheels with a 360-swivel lockable front wheel and a suspension system that makes it suitable for all terrains, including off-road and jogging after your child is old enough to be able to join in with you!

Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is important depending on where you'll be using it most. Moulded wheels are fine for city use but will not be able to handle rougher terrain.
