Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain pushchair that offers lightweight durability and great maneuverability. Its one-hand fold is compact, which means it's lightweight and is freestanding when folded. The padded seat reclines to a nearly flat position, and there's a huge storage bin and canopy. Newborn suitability: Yes, 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 for jogging. However, you should wait until your baby is at minimum 6 or 9 months old.
Ickle Bubba XL Air
This light pushchair made by Ickle Bubba comes with a variety of features that parents will appreciate. It comes as an entire travel system that includes a lie-flat carrycot designed for newborns, a multi-position forward and rear facing pushchair seat and a selection of a group 0+ car seats, so you can get everything you need in one package.
The XL Air is a really impressive car and it's simple to see why it's received such high praise from its customers. It is extremely light - the wheels and chassis weigh only 6.5kg. It's also very simple to put together. I was able get it up and running in less than five minutes - which is remarkable considering it also includes the fabric for the carrycot to be attached.
It has a comfortable, wide seat that was comfortable for Annie (who is 12 months) and the recline lever is very easy to operate. The basket has plenty of space, and I find it nice that the handle bar features pockets to keep your keys and phone secure.
The handlebar is low, which could be an issue for parents who are taller. However, it's coated in a lovely leather-like material that is soft and comfortable, and it wipes down easily, making it still easy to push with children and bags on your hands!
Hauck Pushchair Runner
The Runner is designed for active parents who are eager to go out and explore. The large pneumatic wheels are able to be used on field and forest paths. The front wheel can be locked and swivels to increase the flexibility. The stroller comes with five-point safety harnesses with an adjustable front bar that will keep your child secure on all journeys. The parking brake will keep the stroller stationary as you take a break. The comfortable seat is easy to lower to a lying position and the canopy can be opened to allow to allow for maximum air circulation on hot days. The handle can be adjusted by more than 30 cm to accommodate mum or dad's heights.
The Runner will accompany you on all your adventures, whether it's a quick run, a more strenuous hike or a long-distance trek. It has a fully-flat lay-flat seat and suspension air wheels that provide a smooth ride. The front wheel can be locked to provide more stability on narrow streets or crowded sidewalks. The stroller can also fold up to fit into car boot spaces or storage spaces.
Some parents have found the Runner 2 to be a bit more difficult to navigate than its predecessor and the locking mechanism is less user-friendly (requiring two buttons on either side of the push bar). The handlebars are higher than those of some competitors, so they might not be suitable for taller parents. However the stroller is durable and a lot of fun, and is worth considering for families with active children.
Red Kite Push Me Pace
Red Kite's Pace is a great product from the cost-effective British brand. They are well-known for their well-designed, no-fuss products that are essential to parents. It's the newest - and priciest - addition to their bargain lightweight stroller collection. It's also as with the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo it's car seat-compatible so that you can use it right from birth (the carrycot folds away).
The new Pace has some amazing design elements, like the rose gold hue to the chassis, hood and stroller trims, which truly distinguish it from its competitors. The cream, grey, and tan fabrics on the stroller and the car seat are fashionable and there's an option to add a co-ordinating handle for the cover and bumper bar too.
It's suitable from birth to a maximum weight of 22kg. The stroller seat can easily be converted from the carrycot into a 2-in-1 reversible mode, facing the parent or the world. The stroller seat offers multiple lie back positions, softly padded leg rests and comes with an extended sun canopy that has hidden zip sections, a transparent flaps, and an adjustable sun visor.
When folded when folded, the Pace measures 56 inches x 43cm and 32 inches, which allows it to be used as hand luggage on Easyjet and Ryanair. Two buttons on either side are easy to use and click to lock it in place.
Bugaboo Fox 5
Bugaboo's Fox 5 is designed to be the ultimate, all-terrain stroller. Its unique chassis, which has a shorter wheel-distance makes it more agile than its predecessor. I tested it with my two kids eight weeks old and a toddler - on rocky roads along with grassy wooded trails and even cobblestones.
The puncture-proof wheels are big in size - 22cm and a whopping 30cm - so they can cope with all kinds of terrain. They also come with a handy flap that opens or closes to allow more air to enter if you need it, which is a nice feature. It's a bit bigger than other pushchairs, but does not feel heavy or bulky when you push it across bumpy surfaces.
The fabric for the seat is machine washable and the faux leather frame and grips are easy to clean. It is also quieter than other pushchairs, and I felt at ease using it in busy city streets. Another benefit is that it incorporates accessory points, meaning 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 but you can add their Comfort Wheeled Board (not included) to give your child some extra legroom. The bassinet took about 20 minutes to put together, and it took the same amount of time to transform it into an actual seat.
UPPAbaby Ridge

The Ridge's reversible seat allows you to choose whether your child is facing you or the world in front. Its simple foot brake system makes it easy for parents who are new. The reversible handlebar on the back is a fantastic feature that lets you adjust it to suit your height. The Ridge's fold, unlike many strollers, is stable and self-standing when folded.
