Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain pushchair that provides lightweight durability and excellent maneuverability. Its compact one-hand fold makes it's easy to transport and is freestanding when folded. The padded seat reclines to a nearly flat position, and there's an enormous storage bin and canopy. The suitability for newborns is yes and with a separate carrycot (not suitable for overnight sleeping).
Air-filled tyres and a good suspension will handle rough terrain well. You can also use it to jog. However, you should wait until the baby is at minimum 6 or 9 months old.
Ickle Bubba XL Air
This lightweight pushchair from Ickle Bubba has a lot of features that parents will enjoy. The travel system includes a lie flat carrycot for infants as well as an adjustable forward and rear facing seat for the pushchair.
The XL Air is a really impressive car and it's easy to see why it's been awarded so many praises from its customers. It is incredibly lightweight with the chassis and wheels weigh only 6.5kg. It is also very simple to put together. In fact I was able to get the whole thing up and running in just five minutes, which is pretty amazing considering that it also included the tying of the fabric to the carrycot!
The seat is spacious and comfortable for Annie who is just 12 months old. The recline lever was easy to operate. The basket is spacious with plenty of room and I am impressed that the handle bar comes with an area to keep your phone and keys safe.
The handlebar is low, which can be a problem for parents who are taller. However, it's coated in a lovely leather-like material that is soft and comfy and wipes down easily, making it still easy to push even with children and bags on your hands!
Hauck Pushchair Runner
The Runner is designed for parents who enjoy exploring and are always on the go. The large pneumatic wheels are designed to be used on forest and field trails and the front wheel can be swivelled and locked for extra 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 while the parking brake is able to stop the stroller from moving while you are taking a break. The seat can be repositioned to lay down and the canopy can be opened for maximum air circulation during 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 short jogs or a long hike, the Runner is ready to accompany you on your journeys with a fully-flat lie-flat seat and suspension air wheels that guarantee an unhurried ride. The front wheel can be locked to provide greater stability when walking on narrow streets or busy sidewalks. The stroller can also fold up to fit into car boot spaces or storage spaces.
Some parents have reported that the Runner 2 to be a bit more difficult to navigate than its predecessor and the locking system is less user-friendly (requiring two buttons on each side of the push bar). The handlebars are a bit higher than those of some competitors, so they might not be suitable for shorter parents. However the stroller is durable and adaptable, and is worth considering by active families.
Red Kite Push Me Pace
The Pace is a different great product from Red Kite, an affordable British brand which is known for its well-designed and no-fuss essentials for parents. It's their newest and most expensive addition to the budget-friendly stroller line. Like the Ickle Bubba Aurora or Yoyo, it is car seat compatible so you can use it from the time of birth.
The new Pace boasts some fantastic design features, including the rose gold hue to the chassis, hood and stroller trims to really set it apart from its competitors. The cream, grey, and tan fabrics in the stroller and the car seat are fashionable and there's the option of adding a co-ordinating leather cover handle and bumper bar, too.
The stroller seat can be used from birth until a maximum weight of 22kg. It easily converts into a reversible 2-in-1 position, which is either parent-facing or world-facing. The stroller seat features multiple lie-back positions, soft padded legs rests, and an extendable sun canopy that has hidden zip sections with a view-through flap, and a retractable visor.
What's more, when it's folded it's Pace measures up at 56 32 x 43 cm which means it can be used as hand luggage with Easyjet and Ryanair, among other carriers. It's also a breeze to fold, thanks to two buttons on either side of the handlebar that you can click into and out. Then, it will pop up.
Bugaboo Fox 5
Bugaboo's Fox 5 is designed to be the ultimate, all-terrain stroller. Its unique chassis has shorter wheel length which makes it easier to maneuver than its predecessor. I tested it with my two children eight weeks old and a toddler - on rocky roads, grassy wooded walks and even cobblestones.
The large puncture-proof wheels - either 22cm or a bit larger are able to handle a variety of terrains. The wheels have a flap that can be opened or closed to let more air in when required. It's a bit bigger than some pushchairs but it doesn't feel bulky or heavy when you push it across bumpy surfaces.
The seat fabric is machine washable and the frame and faux leather grips are easy to wipe down. It is also quieter than other pushchairs, and I felt comfortable using it in busy urban streets. 3 wheel buggy is that it has integrated accessory points. This means you can add footmuffs parasols, changing bags and even a tray for snacks. The hood can be used to block out the elements of wind and rain, but it's not waterproof. It's a single pram, however, you can also attach their Comfort Wheeled Board (not included) to give your child more leg room. The bassinet took around 20 minutes to put together and a similar time to convert it into an actual seat.
UPPAbaby Ridge
No matter if you're enjoying a morning jog under the stars or a moonlit walk in the crisp air, the UPPAbaby Ridge transforms every moment into a shared one. This jogging stroller is all-terrain and has been designed to perform to keep you and your child active.

The Ridge is at home in all city scenes including bustling market stalls for farmers to street musicians playing music. Its large basket is big enough to hold your finds from the market and everything else your baby needs and the spacious canopy provides sun and wind protection. The canopy on the front can be unzipped to reveal two mesh peekaboos that allow you to keep an eye on your baby.
The Ridge's reversible seating allows you to choose if your child is facing you, or the world in front. The simple foot brake system makes it a breeze for parents who are just starting out. The reversible handlebar on the back is a fantastic feature that allows you to adjust it according to your height. The Ridge's fold, in contrast to many strollers for jogging, is sturdy and self-standing when folded.
