Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain stroller is light and durable. It also offers excellent maneuverability. Its compact one-hand fold makes it’s lightweight and also freestanding when folded. The cushioned seat reclines to a near-flat position and there’s a giant storage bin and canopy. Baby suitability: Yes and with a separate carrycot (not suitable for sleeping overnight).
Air-filled tyres and a good suspension can handle rough terrain. You can also use it to jog. But, you should wait until the baby is at least 6 or 9 months old.
Ickle Bubba XL Air
This pushchair from Ickle Bubba is an excellent option for parents looking for a lightweight buggy with enhanced features. It is an entire travel system that includes a lie-flat carrycot designed 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 you need in one place.
The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It’s easy to understand why it has received praise from its customers. It’s extremely light – the chassis and wheels weigh just 6.5kg – and it’s also extremely simple to construct. I was able get it up and running in less than five minutes. This is amazing considering that it included the ability to attach fabric to the carrycot.
It has a lovely, wide seat that is comfortable for Annie (who is 12 months) and the recline lever is simple to use. There’s a good amount of space inside the basket and I am awestruck by the fact that it comes with a zip-up pocket in the handle bar so you can keep your keys and phone safe!
The only issue is that the handlebar is low, which could be an issue for taller parents. It’s covered with soft, supple leather-like material, and is easy to wipe down.
Hauck Pushchair Runner
The Runner is for parents who like to explore and are always on the move. The large pneumatic wheels can be used on forest and field paths. The front wheel is lockable and can be swiveled to increase the flexibility. It also comes with a cushioned 5-point safety harness as well as a front bar to ensure your child is safe on all trips while the parking brake reliably prevents the stroller from moving while you are taking a break. The comfortable seat is simple to recline to a lying position and the canopy can be opened to allow to allow for maximum air circulation during hot days. The handle can be adjusted by more than 30cm, to fit mum or dad.
No matter if you’re taking short jogs or a long hike The Runner is ready to join you on your journeys with a fully-flat lie-flat seat and suspension air wheels that guarantee an unhurried ride. The front 3 wheel compact stroller can be locked for more stability on narrow streets or crowded sidewalks. The stroller can also be folded in order to fit into car boot spaces or storage areas.
The Runner 2 is a bit more difficult to navigate for some parents than its predecessor. Also the locking system (requiring two buttons on either side of the handlebar) isn’t as user-friendly. The handlebar is a little higher than the ones of competitors which means it might not be suitable for parents with shorter arms however, overall it’s a sturdy and versatile stroller that is worth considering for active families.
Red Kite Push Me Pace
Red Kite’s Pace is a fantastic product from the budget-friendly British brand. They are renowned for their simple, well-designed products that are essential for parents. It’s the most recent and most expensive product in their bargain-priced lightweight stroller line. It, like the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo it’s car seat-compatible so that you can use it from birth (the carrycot folds away).
The new Pace has some fantastic design elements, including a rose-gold tint on the chassis, hood and stroller trims, which really set it apart. The grey, tan and cream fabrics in the stroller and the car seat are fashionable and there’s the option of adding an coordinating handle for the cover and bumper bar, too.
The stroller seat can be used from birth to 22kg. It easily converts to a two-in-one reversible position, either parent-facing or world-facing. The stroller seat features various lie-back positions, soft padded legs rests, and an extended sun canopy with zip-off sections that are concealed and a transparent flap, and a retractable visor.

Bugaboo Fox 5,
Created to be the ultimate all-terrain pushchair, Bugaboo’s new Fox 5 promises to do it all. Its unique chassis has a shorter 3 wheel baby stroller distance which makes it easier to maneuver than its predecessor. I tried it out with my two kids – an eight-week-old and a toddler – on rocky pavements as well as grassy wooded paths and even cobblestones.
The puncture-proof wheels are big in size – 22cm and a whopping 30cm – therefore they are able to handle many different terrains. They also come with a handy flap that opens or closes to allow more air to circulate should you need it and is a nice feature. It is a little bigger than other pushchairs, however it does not feel heavy or bulky when pushing it across bumpy surfaces.
The seat fabric is machine washable, and the frame and faux leather grips are simple to wipe down. It’s also quieter than other pushchairs and I felt comfortable with it on busy urban streets. A bonus feature is that it comes with accessory points, which means you can add footmuffs, parasols, changing bags and even a snack tray. The hood can be used to block the elements of wind and rain, but it’s not waterproof. It’s a single pram however, you can also attach their Comfort 3 wheeled pushchair Board (not included) to give your child more leg room. It took about 20 minutes to set up the bassinet, and the same amount of time to convert it into the seat.

Its large basket is big enough to hold your market finds and all the essentials for your baby while the large canopy offers sun and wind protection. The large front canopy opens to reveal two mesh peekaboo windows that make it simple to observe your baby’s surroundings.
The Ridge’s reversible seat allows you to decide if your child is facing you or the world ahead and its simple foot brake system is easy for new parents. A fantastic 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.
