3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair Whether you're looking for a buggy for walking in the woods or a stroll on the high street, a pushchair that is all-terrain with a great maneuverability will be an ideal choice. These models usually have large wheels and have a powerful suspension to ensure smooth riding over bumps and rough ground. The majority of them are suitable from birth and include a lie-flat seat or a baby carrycot. They also have foam-filled tyres that are never flat to help with maintenance. Suspension A quality all-terrain pushchair has an excellent suspension that has been designed to be extra smooth and comfortable on rough terrain. This will help your child feel more relaxed and comfortable. The wheels are usually big and puncture-proof to protect against damage from sharp sticks or rocks. Some all-terrain strollers even provide the option of switching between tyres with different conditions. Certain all-terrain strollers feature a swivel wheel that can be locked to offer stability or unlocked to allow for greater manoeuvrability. For added security Certain all-terrain pushchairs include a lockable handbrake which is much easier to reach and use with your hands free rather than using a traditional brake pedal on the handlebars' side. This is an excellent feature for those who are inclined to climb steep hills. If you don't want go as far as an all-terrain stroller, there are many strollers on the market which have very good – but not perfect – off-road capabilities, and have great suspension and large wheels. They tend to be cheaper than full-on all-terrain buggy options and will still work well for short country walks or trips to the park. A lot of these pushchairs can be used starting at birth, either with a carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. Be aware that these seats won't lie flat when pushing over bumps or dips. As per EU regulations, they have to meet minimum requirements of a reclining angle of around 150 degrees. Some brands, including Graco, have overcome this with their new “comfitech” suspension in the seat that allows the seat to recline at a slightly flatter angle to provide a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used with an compatible Graco infant car seat to create a 3 in one travel system. Seat There's a wide selection of three-wheel all terrain pushchairs to choose from that offer excellent off-road performance. They are perfect for those who reside in the countryside or regularly go walking on uneven, rough terrain. These are more robust and durable than a regular pushchair. They have special features, like big puncture-proof tires that can handle the toughest surfaces. They can be quite wide and can be difficult to maneuver in narrow spaces or in the aisles of shops. The seat of an all-terrain buggy could be facing the world or towards the parent and will grow with your child, from infant to toddler (it's suitable for children as young as 6 months). It has 'never-flat' foam-filled tyres that give a smooth ride. It also features dual frame suspension, luxurious padding and an adjustable seat that provides excellent postural support. It has a reclining feature, as well as an enormous hood that can be extended and integrated venting as well as a pocket for a smartphone. The new Out 'n' About Nipper V5 is another great option. It's an all-terrain stroller that's an innovator. It comes with a fantastic suspension and air-filled tyres, so it's suitable to run once your child is of the right age. It has a 360-degree lockable front wheel that allows easy maneuverability and a quick one-handed folding. It's suitable for babies from birth, and can be used with an adaptor for the UPPAbaby infant car seat or carrycot (sold separately). A lot of all-terrain pushchairs do not have a reversible seat, but the likes of the Oyster 3, Venicci Tinum and egg 2 do offer this option and both offer a very good level of off-road capability and an adequate weight limit for a 2 year old. A lot of pushchairs are categorized as all-rounders. They include the iCandy Pear, Bugaboo Cameleon and a few others. They can navigate rough terrain in parks and National Trust locations, but do not have the off-road capabilities of real all-terrain strollers. There are also crossover models that are a great combination of extreme off-road and high street and offer excellent all-terrain capabilities with large wheels and a great suspension, but they're built more like a standard pushchair with reversible seats and the option of a full carrycot, so they can be used on a daily basis. Brands like iCandy, Easywalker and Bugaboo have created some great ones to take a look at. Wheels If you reside in a rural area or regularly take your baby for walks on rough terrain, an all-terrain pushchair is vital. These pushchairs have larger wheels that are mounted on the back than traditional pushchairs, which enables them to deal with rough terrain better and provide a smoother ride for your child. 3 wheeled pushchair have robust suspension and puncture-proof models which make them suitable for use on woodland, grass or forest paths, gravel tracks and market town cobbles. Certain all-terrain pushchairs come with an adjustable front wheel that provides extra stability when walking over rough terrain or on high kerbs. Some models have swivel front wheels that allow you to maneuver the buggy more easily when you are changing direction or turning corners. All-terrain strollers feature air-filled tyres that are excellent for rough terrain. However, they are more prone than the solid EVA tyres used on lighter city strollers. It's therefore worth purchasing a repair kit and spare inner tube with your pushchair. Certain models have foam tyres that are less likely to puncture, but might be more difficult to push. The brand new Bugaboo Fox 5 pushchair is a great model of a stroller that features both air and foam filled tyres. It also features an excellent suspension and large rear wheels that are puncture proof and suitable for off-road use or running (once your child is of the appropriate age). It is also suitable for children from birth and can be used in conjunction with a carrycot or a lay-flat seat. Another alternative is the iCandy Peach All-Terrain, which has large tyres and has one steering wheel at the front. It's not as versatile like the other all-terrain pushchairs on this list but it does perform well on the terrain that is hilly and has a spacious one-handed fold that is ideal if you plan to use the pushchair for long walks or excursions into the countryside. It's also suitable for babies and has a large sun canopy that can be extended and some great parent-friendly features such as a brake pedal that is easy to use with an adjustable handlebar as well as a generously sized basket. Stores There are excellent all-terrain pushchairs for parents who are looking to take their children off-road, but don't wish to tackle Ben Nevis. They are the best of both. Find a model with excellent all-terrain capabilities, durable suspension, and large puncture-proof wheels. However, they are designed in a more traditional pushchair design, with reversible seats and all carrycot options. UPPAbaby's well-known Ridge all-terrain pushchair is a great example of this; it offers excellent suspension, an easy one-handed fold and a huge 10kg basket. It also has features that are suitable for parents, such as an adjustable handlebar, a hand-operated brake on the right and a large, covered storage space. A hood that can be removed and cleaned with cool soapy water is another useful feature that can help to stop mould and mildew from building up. If you're planning on driving your all-terrain pushchair off road it's best to opt for air-filled tyres rather than those with rubber grips. These will provide an easier ride on rough terrain and make it easier to navigate through tight spaces. If you plan to use your all terrain pushchair for jogging, ensure that the front wheel can be swivelable or has a quick-release facility to lock it into position for better stability. It is important to verify that the fabric of the pushchair is machine washed to ensure they are in good condition. If not, a spot cleaning with warm water and a small amount of gentle soap should suffice. Drying the fabric completely outdoors will also help prevent mould and mildew from developing. The majority of our 3 wheel pushchairs are suitable for use from birth. Look for models with a fully lie-flat chair and a reversible backrest to allow you to use it from birth right up until your child is three years old. Many of them are compatible with car seat adapters for a family of three. If 3 wheeled pushchair 'd like to leave the car at home, there are all-terrain pushchairs with fixed front wheels that are ideal for casual strolls or light jogging like the Delta Special Needs all-terrain jogger from Delichon which is available in a range of canvas and frame sizes to suit children and adults.
