Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs

All-terrain stroller that is light, durable and offers great maneuverability. The compact fold that can be folded with just one hand makes it easy to carry. It also stands on its own when folded. The cushioned seat reclines into a nearly flat position, and there's a large storage bin and canopy. Newborn suitability: Yes, with a separate carrycot (not suitable for sleep over).

A good suspension with air-filled tires will allow you to handle rough terrain. You can also use it for jogging. However, you must wait until the baby is at least 6 or 9 months old.

Ickle Bubba XL Air

This pushchair from Ickle Bubba is a great choice for parents who want a lightweight buggy with enhanced features. It comes as an all-in-one travel system that includes a lie-flat carrycot suitable for infants, a multi-position forward and rear-facing pushchair seat as well as a choice of group 0+ car seat, so you can have everything in one package.

The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It's easy to understand why it's earned such high marks from its customers. It is extremely light - the wheels and chassis weigh just 6.5kg. It's also very easy to assemble. In fact I was able put it up and running in less than five minutes, which is impressive considering it included the tying of the fabric to the carrycot!

The seat is wide and comfortable for Annie who is 12 months old. The recline lever was easy to operate. The basket has plenty of space and I find it nice that the handle bar comes with pockets to keep your keys and phone safe.

The handlebar is a bit low, which may be a problem for parents who are taller. However, it's coated with a luxurious leather-like material that is soft and comfortable, and it wipes down easily, so it's still easy to push with children and bags on your hands!

Hauck Pushchair Runner

The Runner is designed for active parents who can't wait to go outside and explore. Its large pneumatic wheels are designed to be used on field and forest trails, and the front wheel can be swivelled and locked to give you more flexibility. The stroller also comes with 5-point safety harness with an adjustable front bar that will keep your child secure on every trip. The parking brake will keep the stroller stationary while you rest. The comfortable seat is simple to adjust down to a comfortable lying position, and the canopy opens up to allow for maximum air circulation on hot days. The handle can be height-adjusted by more than 30 cm to accommodate dad or mum's heights.

The Runner will accompany you on your next adventure whether it's a short run, a more strenuous hike, or a long-distance walk. It features a completely flat lay-flat seat with suspension air wheels that provide a smooth ride. The front wheel can be locked for greater stability on narrow streets and crowded sidewalks and the stroller folds up easily to fit in car boot spaces and storage areas.

The Runner 2 is a bit more difficult to maneuver for some parents than its predecessor. Additionally the locking system (requiring two buttons on either on either side of the handlebar) is less user-friendly. The handlebars are a bit higher than some competitors, so they might not be suitable for taller parents. However the stroller is strong and versatile, and is worth considering by active families.

Red Kite Push Me Pace

The Pace is a great option from Red Kite, an affordable British brand that is known for its well-designed and no-fuss essentials for parenting. It's the newest - and priciest - version of their bargain light stroller range and like the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo it's 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 tint of the chassis, hood and stroller trims to really set it apart from its competitors. The grey, tan and cream fabrics used in the stroller as well as the car seat are fashionable and there's an option to add an coordinating leather cover handle and bumper bar as well.

The stroller seat is used from birth up to a maximum weight of 22kg. It easily converts into a 2-in-1 reversible position, which is either parent-facing or facing the world. The stroller seat has multi lying positions, a softly padded leg rests and comes with an extendable sun canopy featuring concealed zip sections, viewing transparent flaps, and a retractable sun visor section.

When folded when folded, the Pace measures 56 inches x 43cm and 32 inches, which makes it suitable for hand luggage on Easyjet and Ryanair. It's also easy to fold down, using two buttons on either side of the handlebar which just click in and pop up.

Bugaboo Fox 5

Bugaboo's Fox 5 is designed to be the ultimate all-terrain 3 wheeler stroller. Its unique chassis features a shorter 3 wheel baby stroller width which makes it easier to maneuver than its predecessor. I tried it with my two kids - an eight-week-old and a toddler - on rocky roads, grassy wooded walks and even cobblestones.

The large, puncture-proof wheels - either 22cm or a bit larger - can handle different terrains. They also come with a handy flap that can open or closes to let more air in should you need it, which is a nice feature. It's a bit bigger than most pushchairs, but it isn't heavy or bulky when pushing it across bumpy surfaces.

The fabric of the seat is machine washable, and the frame and faux leather grips are simple to clean. It's also quieter than other pushchairs, and I felt comfortable using it on busy city streets. One of the advantages is that it comes with accessory points. This means you can add footmuffs parasols, changing bags and even a tray for snacks. The hood can be used to block rain and wind, however it's not waterproof. The single pram can be fitted with the Comfort 3 wheeled pushchair Board (not included), which gives your child more leg room. It took about 20 minutes to put together the bassinet, and the same amount of time to convert it into the seat.

UPPAbaby Ridge

If you're taking a morning jog under the stars or taking a moonlit walk in the crisp air, the UPPAbaby Ridge transforms every moment into a shared experience. This stroller that is all-terrain designed to keep both you and your child engaged.

The large 12" and 16" foam-filled tires give you an easy ride, no matter the terrain. The patented suspension system enables you to effortlessly glide across woodland trails while minimizing impact on your child's rear and legs. And the reliable performance disc hand brake allows you to stop quickly, even while running downhill.

The Ridge is at home in all city scenes, from bustling farmers' markets to street musicians playing music. The spacious basket can accommodate your finds from the market and all the essentials for your baby while the large canopy offers sun and wind protection. The canopy's large front unzips to reveal two mesh windows that make it simple to observe your baby's surroundings.

The Ridge's reversible seat lets you choose whether your child is facing you, or the world ahead. The simple foot brake system makes it a breeze for parents who are just starting out. A great feature is the reversible handlebar, which allows you to adjust it to your height and preference. And unlike other strollers that jog, the Ridge's fold is reliable and stays self-standing while folded.

iCandy Core

iCandy’s new pushchair has many features that will be awe-inspiring to parents. It has a Multi-Mode Wheelbase and a groundbreaking LED Hub Light that is a first for the industry. It also has an integrated Ride-on Board which will save you money in the future and makes it easier for a tired toddler to accompany you on family outings.

The Core can be purchased as a single or as a complete travel system and it is compatible with the most popular car seats made by brands such as Cybex, Maxi Cosi and Joie. It also has the biggest seat in the iCandy range, so it will last your baby's first years and beyond. Like all iCandy pushchairs, it's luxuriously constructed and comes with premium knitted jersey fabrics. The parent's adjustable handlebar and child's detachable bumper bar are made from soft leatherette, and the folding calf support folds away and is super comfortable for children.

I was impressed with the ease of fold and collapse. It only requires one hand, even with the seat unit attached. It is also easy to fit into your hallway and boot which makes it ideal to travel with. The iCandy Core comes with lots of additional accessories, including a colour matching changing rucksack and a footmuff/liner.
