Best 3 Wheel Pushchairs
All-terrain pushchair that offers light weight and excellent maneuverability. Its compact one-hand fold makes it's easy to move and freestanding when folded. The padded seat reclines to an almost flat position and there is a large storage bin and canopy. Newborn suitability? Yes with an additional carrycot.
A well-constructed suspension and air-filled tires will allow you to navigate the rough terrain. You can also use it for jogging. However, you should wait until the baby is at minimum 6 or 9 months old.
Ickle Bubba XL Air
This pushchair from Ickle Bubba is an excellent option for parents looking for lightweight strollers with added features. The travel system comes with an adjustable carrycot that can be folded flat for newborns and a multi-position forward and rear facing seat for the pushchair.
The XL Air is a very impressive buggy. It's easy to see why it has received such high marks from customers. It's incredibly light - the wheels and chassis weigh just 6.5kg - and it's also easy to put together. In fact I was able to get the whole thing up and running in less than five minutes, which is amazing considering that it also included attaching the fabric for the carrycot!
It has a comfortable, wide seat that was comfortable for Annie (who is 12 months old) and the recline lever is very easy to use. There's plenty of room inside the basket and I am awestruck by the fact that it has a zip-up compartment in the handle bar so that you can keep your keys and phone secure!
The handlebar is a bit low, which can be a problem for parents who are taller. It's covered in a soft, comfortable leather-like material that is easy to wipe down.
3 wheel pushchair is designed for parents who enjoy exploring and are always on the go. Its large pneumatic wheels were 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 comes with a 5-point safety harness with an adjustable front bar that will keep your child safe during all journeys. 3 wheel buggy parking brake will keep the stroller stationary while you rest. The comfortable seat is simple to lower to a comfortable lying position, and the canopy opens to reveal netting for optimum air circulation during hot days. The handle can be height-adjusted by more than 30 cm to accommodate dad or mum's heights.
If you're planning a quick jog or a long hike The Runner is ready to accompany you on all your adventures with a reclining, fully-flat seat and suspension air wheels that promise a bump-free ride. The front wheel is lockable for greater stability on narrow streets and crowded sidewalks and the stroller folds up easily to fit into car boots and storage spaces.
Some parents have found the Runner 2 to be a bit harder to maneuver than its predecessor, and the locking system is less user-friendly (requiring two buttons on the opposite side of the push bar). The handlebar is higher than the ones of competitors and therefore it may not be suitable for parents with shorter arms, but overall this is a sturdy and versatile stroller that is worthy of consideration for families with active kids.
Red Kite Push Me walking
Red Kite's Pace is a top product from the cost-effective British brand. They are renowned for their simple, well-designed products that are essential to parents. It's the most recent - and priciest - version of their bargain light stroller range and like the Ickle Bubba Aurora and Yoyo it's car seat-compatible which means you can use it from the beginning (the carrycot folds away).
The new Pace boasts some fantastic design touches such as the rose gold hue to the chassis, hood and stroller trims to really set it apart from its competition. The car seat and stroller fabrics are stylish in tan, grey and cream. You can also choose to add handles made of leather and a bumper bar to match.
The stroller seat can be used from birth to a maximum weight of 22kg. It converts easily into a reversible 2-in-1 position, either facing the parent or facing the world. The stroller seat has various lie-back positions, softly padded legs rests and an extendable sun canopy with hidden zip sections and a transparent flap, and a retractable visor.
When folded when folded, the Pace measures 56 x 43cm x 32cm, which makes it suitable for hand luggage on Easyjet and Ryanair. Two buttons on either side are easy use and click into place.
Bugaboo Fox 5
Bugaboo's Fox 5 is designed to be the ultimate, all-terrain stroller. Its unique chassis comes with a shorter wheel distance, making it more manoeuvrable than its predecessor. I tried it out with my two kids - an eight-week-old and a toddler - on rocky roads along with grassy wooded trails and even cobblestones.
The large puncture-proof wheels, which measure 22cm or 30cm in diameter - can handle different terrains. They also come with an easy flap that opens or closes to let more air to enter when you require it and is a nice feature. It's a bit bigger than some pushchairs but doesn't feel heavy or bulky when you push 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 a lot quieter than some pushchairs, and I felt safe using it in busy city streets. Another benefit is that it incorporates accessory points. This means you can put in 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 it took a similar time to convert it into a seat.
UPPAbaby Ridge
Whether you're enjoying an early morning run under the stars or taking a moonlit stroll in the crisp air, the UPPAbaby Ridge turns every moment into a shared one. This all-terrain stroller is designed to keep you and your child engaged.
The large, foam-filled 12" and 16 "tires offer smooth rides regardless of the terrain. The suspension is patented, allowing you to glide over woodland paths with minimal impact on your child's legs as well as rear. The handbrake with a performance disc allows you to stop quickly even while jogging down a downhill slope.
The Ridge is at its best in every city scene from bustling farmers' markets to the street musicians playing music. Its large basket is big enough to hold your shopping cart and all of your baby's essentials while the large canopy offers sun and wind protection. The canopy on the front can be removed to reveal two mesh peekaboos that permit you to keep an eye on your baby.
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 easy for parents who are just starting out. The reversible handlebar is wonderful 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.
iCandy Core
The new pushchair from iCandy is truly groundbreaking, with lots of features that are going to wow parents. It comes with a multi-mode wheelbase and an LED Visibility Hub light that is a first in the industry. It features a built-in Ride-on board which helps save on future costs, and allows tired toddlers to join the family on outings.

The child's bumper bar and the parent's adjustable handlebar are made of soft leatherette. The fold-away calf supports is also very comfortable for children.
It was impressive how easily it collapsed and folded, even with the seat unit attached. It can easily fit in your hallway or boot, making it ideal for travelling. The iCandy Core includes a variety of accessories, like an iCandy Core-branded changing rucksack and liner or footmuff.
