The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

If you frequently walk on rough terrain, or wish to exercise on a treadmill, a three-wheeled pushchair is the best 3 wheel stroller with car seat option. They are ideal if you need a buggy that can handle all types of terrain from busy high streets to woodland tracks.

For more manoeuvrability, look for a model with locking or swivelling front wheels. Larger wheels on the front and back also offer a more comfortable ride over varying surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

A 3 wheel buggy wheel pushchair is a great choice for those who want to move easily. The wheels are close which allows the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a 4 wheel pushchair. This makes them suitable for busy shops and streets. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra maneuverability when needed. The Roma Atlas has two wheels in the front set close together and a lock that allows it to be as stable as a three-wheeler, while still having the same maneuverability.

Many of our most loved twin 3 wheel stroller wheelers can be converted from pram, stroller or car-seat and toddler seats as your child develops.

Stability

There are many features you can check out for that will enhance the stability of your buggy. Some designs have a rotating front wheel that can be locked in place to provide extra stability when riding on rough terrain. This can be especially useful for those who will use your pushchair off-road, or for jogging as it will give you the confidence to go off on different surfaces without difficulty.

Another excellent stability feature is suspension. It makes your buggy more comfortable for both you and baby particularly on uneven ground. Some brands also allow you to swap out tyres with different sizes so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair to the terrain you'll be taking it on.

You should consider investing in a three-wheeled pushchair that has air-filled tires for a pushchair that can handle any terrain.

Weight

The drawback of 3 wheeled strollers is that they can be heavy, particularly if you have to navigate bumpy terrain and kerbs. The larger rear wheels of a 3-wheeler add to the overall weight, which is heavier than a 4-wheeler. This means that you'll require more strength to lift them.
