Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain stroller that is light, durable and offers great maneuverability. Its compact one-hand fold means it's lightweight and is freestanding when folded. The padded seat reclines to a near-flat position, and there's a huge storage bin and canopy. The suitability for newborns is yes, with a separate carrycot (not suitable for sleep over).
Air-filled tyres and good suspension will handle rough terrain well. It's also suitable for jogging but 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 a lightweight buggy with enhanced features. The travel system comes with an adjustable carrycot that can be folded flat for newborns and an adjustable rear and forward facing pushchair seat.
The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It's easy to understand why it has received such high marks from its customers. It's extremely light-weight - the wheels and chassis weigh just 6.5kg. It's extremely easy to put together. I was able to get it up and running in just five minutes. This is amazing considering that it includes the ability to attach fabric to the carrycot.
The seat is spacious and comfortable for Annie, who is 12 months old. The recline lever was simple to operate. 3 wheel buggy is spacious with plenty of room and I like that the handle bar features pockets to keep your phone and keys safe.
The only issue is that the handlebar is quite low, which can be an issue for parents who are taller. But, it's covered with a luxurious leather-like material that is soft and comfortable and cleans down easily, so it's still easy to push with bags and children on your hands!
Hauck Pushchair Runner
The Runner is for parents who enjoy exploring and are always on the move. Its large pneumatic wheels were designed to be used on forest and field paths and the front wheel can be swivelled and locked for extra versatility. The stroller also features a 5-point safety harness with a front bar that keeps your child safe on all trips. The parking brake will keep the stroller on its feet while you rest. The comfy seat is easy to lower to a lying position and the canopy opens to reveal to allow for maximum air circulation during hot days. The handle can be adjusted by more than 30 cm to accommodate mum or dad's heights.
No matter if you're taking an easy jog or a longer hike The Runner is ready to join you on all your adventures with a reclining, fully-flat seat and suspension air wheels that promise smooth, safe ride. The front wheel can be locked to provide more stability on narrow streets and overcrowded sidewalks and the stroller folds easily to fit into car boot spaces and storage areas.
The Runner 2 is a bit more difficult to navigate for some parents than its predecessor. Additionally the locking system (requiring two buttons either on either side of the handlebar) is less user-friendly. The handlebar is higher than the ones of competitors and therefore it may not suit shorter parents however, overall it's a sturdy and versatile stroller worth considering for active families.
Red Kite Push Me Pace
Red Kite's Pace is a top product from the cost-effective British brand. They are renowned for their simple, well-designed products that are essential for parents. It's the latest - and priciest - addition to their bargain lightweight stroller line. It, like the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo is car seat compatible so you can use it from birth (the carrycot folds away).
The new Pace has some amazing design touches such as the rose gold hue to the chassis, hood and stroller trims, which make it stand out from its competition. The stroller and car seat fabrics are stylish in tan, grey, and cream. You can also add the handle in leather and the bumper bar to match.
It's suitable from birth to a maximum weight of 22kg and the stroller seat easily converts from the carrycot to the 2-in-1 reversible mode. It can be parent or world-facing. The stroller seat has several lie-back positions, plus softly padded legs rests and an extendable sun canopy that has hidden zip sections and a transparent flap, and a retractable visor.
When folded when folded, the Pace measures 56 x 43cm x 32cm, which is perfect for hand luggage on Easyjet and Ryanair. Two buttons on each side are easy to use and click to lock it in place.
Bugaboo Fox 5,
Created to be the ultimate all-terrain stroller, Bugaboo's newest Fox 5 promises to do everything. Its unique chassis comes with a shorter wheel distance which makes it easier to maneuver than its predecessor. I tried it out with my two children eight weeks old and a toddler - on rocky roads as well as grassy wooded paths and even cobblestones.
The puncture-proof wheels are huge - 22cm and 30cm - therefore they are able to handle many different terrains. They also have an easy flap that opens or closes to let more air to circulate if you need it this is a nice feature. It's slightly larger than most pushchairs, yet doesn't feel heavy or bulky when you're pushing it across bumpy surfaces.
The seat fabric is machine washable, as are the frame and faux leather grips are easy to clean. It's also much quieter than many pushchairs and I felt comfortable using it in busy city streets. One of the advantages is that it has integrated accessory points, which means you can add footmuffs parasols, changing bags, and even a tray for snacks. You can also use the hood to block out rain and wind, but it isn't particularly waterproof. The single pram can be fitted with the Comfort Wheeled Board (not included), which gives your child more leg room. It took about 20 minutes to set up the bassinet, and the same amount of time to transform it into the seat.
