3 wheeled pushchairs Wheel All Terrain Pushchair
A pushchair that is all-terrain with outstanding maneuverability will work whether you are seeking a stroller for nature walks or taking a stroll along the high streets. These types typically have big wheels and a surprisingly strong suspension to ensure smooth riding over bumps and rough ground.
Most are suitable for newborns and include seats that can be positioned flat or a newborn carrycot. They are also typically fitted with foam-filled, never-flat tyres for reducing maintenance.
Suspension
A true all terrain pushchair has a great suspension, designed to be extra smooth on rough terrain which allows your child to feel comfortable and at ease. The wheels are usually large and puncture-proof to protect against injury caused by sharp rocks or sharp sticks.
The larger tyres will allow you navigate more difficult terrain with ease, with some all-terrain pushchairs even having additional tyres to switch between to suit different conditions. Some all-terrain strollers have an swivel wheel that can be locked to offer stability, or left unlocked to permit greater maneuverability.
For additional security Some all-terrain pushchairs have a handbrake that is lockable, which is easier to reach and utilize with your hands rather than using the traditional brake pedal that is located to the handlebars’ sides. This is a great feature for those who are inclined to climb steep hills.
There are many strollers with excellent off-road capabilities however they are not the best. They also have big wheels and great suspension. They are generally more affordable than full-on all-terrain buggy models and can work well for short walks in the countryside or trips to the park.
Many of these pushchairs are suitable from birth, either with an infant carrycot or a baby-ready car seat. Be aware that the seats will not lay flat when pushing over bumps or dips. According to EU regulations, they only have to meet minimum requirements of reclined angles of approximately 150 degrees. Certain brands, such as Graco, have overcome this with their new ‘comfitech’ in-seat suspension which allows the seat to recline at a slightly more flatter angle to provide a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used in conjunction with a compatible Graco infant car seat to create a 3 in 1 travel system.
Seat
There is a variety of 3-wheeled all-terrain pushchairs available, which offer a superb off road capability. They are ideal if you live in the countryside or walk regularly on rough, uneven terrain. They are more durable and durable than a standard pushchair. They are equipped with unique features, like big puncture-proof tires to handle the most challenging surfaces. They are usually quite large, which means they could be difficult to maneuver in narrow spaces or through aisles in shops.
The seat of an all-terrain buggy may be facing the world or towards the parent and expands with your child from newborn to toddler (it’s suitable for children as young as 6 months). It’s equipped with foam-filled ‘never flat’ tyres to ensure smooth rides with dual frame suspension, as well as lavish padding inside the seat, which provides excellent postural support and comfort. It also features a recline mechanism, as well as an extended sun hood that can be extended that has integrated ventilation as well as an integrated pocket for smartphones.
The brand new Out ‘n’ About Nipper V5 is another excellent choice. It’s an all-terrain stroller that is an innovator. It has excellent suspension and air-filled tyres, so it can be used to jog once your child reaches the appropriate age. It also comes with the ability to lock the front 360 swivel wheel that allows for manoeuvrability and it folds with one hand, which is easy and quick. It’s suitable for babies from birth and can be used with an UPPAbaby infant car seat adaptor or carrycot (sold separately).
A majority of all-terrain pushchairs lack seats that can be reversible, however the likes of the Oyster 3, Venicci Tinum and egg 2 do offer this option and both offer an excellent level of off-road capability and a decent weight limit for a 2 year old. There are many pushchairs that are classified as all-rounders like the iCandy Pear and Bugaboo Cameleon, which cope very well with the rough terrain found in park or National Trust places but don’t offer the off-road performance of all-terrain pushchairs.
Then there are the crossover models, which are a great combination of extreme off-road and high-street and are able to handle all terrains with large wheels and great suspension but they’re designed more in the typical pushchair style with reversible seats and fully-equipped carrycots, so they can be used everyday. Some of the best ones are made by brands like iCandy Easywalker and Bugaboo.
Wheels
If you live in a rural area or regularly take your baby on walks over rough ground an all-terrain pushchair becomes vital. These pushchairs typically have bigger back wheels than standard pushchairs which makes them better at handling bumpy, off-road terrain and providing an easy ride for your child. They also have robust suspension and puncture-proof models to ensure they’re safe for use on woodland, grass or paths through the forest, gravel tracks and market town cobbles.
Certain all-terrain strollers come with a lockable wheel at the front that provides stability when walking on rough terrain or high kerbs. Some have swivel wheels on the front, which allow you to move the buggy more easily if you want to change direction or turn corners.
Most all-terrain pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which provide excellent shock absorption and are ideal for tackling rough ground but they’re more prone to punctures than the solid EVA tyres used on lightweight city strollers which is why you should invest in a repair kit, spare inner tube and pump for your pushchair. Certain models have foam tyres that are less prone to puncture but might be more difficult to push.
The new Bugaboo Fox 5 is a great example of a child’s pushchair with both foam-filled and air-filled tyres, an excellent suspension system, and large rear puncture-proof wheels which are perfect for off-road or jogging use (once your child is old enough). This model can also be used as a baby with a carrycot or an incline-flat chair.
The iCandy Peach All-Terrain is another option. It has large tyres, a single steering-wheel at the front, and huge tyres. It’s not as pliable as the other pushchairs with all-terrain capabilities on this list but it does handle hills and features an ample, one-handed fold which is perfect if you’re planning to use the pushchair for long walks or trips into the countryside. It is suitable for children and comes with a large canopy that extends, an adjustable handlebar, and a large, spacious basket.
Stores
There are excellent all-terrain pushchairs designed for parents who want to take their child off-road but don’t want to take on Ben Nevis. They are the best of both. Find a model with an excellent all-terrain capability, solid suspension and large puncture-proof wheels but designed in the traditional pushchair style, with reversible seats and all carrycot options.
The UPPAbaby’s bestselling Ridge all-terrain pushchair is an excellent example of this. It has a great suspension, an easy one-handed fold and a generous 10kg basket but also has features for parents that are child-friendly, like an adjustable handlebar, a hand-operated brake on the right side and a large covered storage space. A hood that can be removed and brushed down with cool soapy water is another handy feature that will help prevent mildew and mould from growing.
If you’re planning on driving your all-terrain pushchair off road, it’s worth opting for air-filled tyres, rather than those with grips made of rubber. They’ll provide a more comfortable ride on rough ground and are easier to maneuver in tight spaces. If you intend to use your all-terrain stroller for occasional jogging, make sure the front wheel is able to swivel or has a quick release facility to ensure it is locked in place to provide greater stability.
To keep the fabrics in pristine condition, it’s important to ensure that they are washed by a machine. If not, a spot clean with warm soapy water and some warm water should be sufficient. Drying the fabric completely outdoors will also help prevent mildew and mould from forming.
