3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review There are three-wheel strollers designed for anyone, whether you're looking for a jogging stoller or an all-purpose stroller to use every day. Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through the paces on both pavement and off-road surfaces as well as testing children's comfort in the seats. Stroller Features The top strollers come with features that make life on the go with your child more comfortable. Whether you're shopping for a new 3-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller look for features that make life easier, such as an ample storage basket as well as a tray for the parent with cup holders, a movable canopy and more. It's crucial to decide which features are essential for you and your family and those you can live without. The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller with a variety of useful features that will keep moms and dads comfortable and happy. The handlebar adjusts to three different positions to accommodate caregivers of all sizes and the wrist strap can help ensure that the stroller doesn't roll away when you're jogging. The Wayfinder comes with the largest sunshade among the strollers we tested and a large, clear opening at the top that allows children to see out when they're resting. And Jenni's 3-year-old found the seat to be comfortable cushioned, which means bumps on the road won't make him feel too shaken. This jogging stoller has the handbrake to help keep your grip on slippery surfaces. It can fold into a compact, slim package that will take up little space in the trunk of your car. You can also transform it into an entire travel system by buying an adapter. It can also be used with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet. Solid tires are crucial for strollers that will be used on rough terrains. Solid tires are not as comfortable as air-filled or spongy-filled tires, but they're perfect for navigating potholes and bumps. This stroller for jogging has an easy-to-use fold that takes just two steps. It locks when folded, and is compact enough to fit into most elevators. However, it's not as easy to move around as our other strollers with four wheels, and the mechanism to lock it is a bit hazy. It involves pressing a button near the foot area at the front of stroller and lifting the handle. We'd like to see a more simple system that clicks into the position or opens when pulled. Stroller Weight The weight of the entire unit is a crucial aspect to consider. A heavier stroller is more stable and can perform better on uneven terrain. However, many parents discover that a stroller with a lighter weight is more maneuverable and more suitable for everyday use. The type and size of the wheels is an important aspect. Some strollers, such as ones that jog with larger wheels will provide a more comfortable experience for infants. 3 wheeled pushchair can weigh more on the stroller, making it difficult to fold, transport and store. Certain models in our collection have wheels filled with air that provide a safe, comfortable ride for your child on rough terrain. Air-filled tires are more prone to flattening and will need to replace them. If you intend to travel frequently with your stroller, we recommend a model with solid tires that can withstand frequent contact with various surfaces and last longer. Strollers with swivel wheel on the front are ideal for safely navigating escalators and stairs. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most common injuries to strollers. They are especially hazardous for infants. If you are unable to avoid using an escalator or stairs while using your stroller, we recommend using it if your child is securely strapped in the seat. Also keep them close to you as you go up or down. Some strollers come as an integrated travel system that incorporates both the car seat as well as the stroller. Although these strollers often have attractive price tags and provide convenience in terms of the time spent shopping however, they are typically more expensive than their standalone counterparts and might not perform as well in the long haul. Additionally, many parents later regret purchasing a bundle because it might not have all the features they desire, or it could prove to not be compatible with their car or child's seat. If you want to upgrade in the future we recommend you purchase a stroller separately from car seats or capsules. Stroller Folding The most compact 3 wheel strollers fold easily and quickly to make storage and transportation easy. Some lock automatically into place when you open them. This feature is particularly beneficial for families who frequently use public transportation or drive to go on a walk. Three-wheeled strollers are able to maneuver effortlessly in tight spaces, such as grocery store aisles or other crowded areas. Many also come equipped with suspension systems that give a smoother ride for your little one which is especially helpful on slippery sidewalks. If you're seeking a jogging stroller that won't weigh you down Guava Roam Crossover is an excellent option. It's a stylish stroller which can be used as a travel system, with the adapters for car seats for Nuna Maxi-Cosi, Nuna and Cybex infant carseats, as well as the bassinet Uppababy (car seats and stroller boards sold separately). The stroller folds down in two steps and locks in place when it is opened. The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another stylish 3-wheeled jogging stroller that looks nice. The stroller is more expensive than our top picks, but is worth it if you travel frequently or live in a city. This lightweight stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1) and has an adjustable, padded, five-point no-rethread harness and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller for infants and toddlers, if you have an adapter for infant car seats. Although the Babyzen offers some great features, like a roomy recline and extra storage space, some parents are dissatisfied with its performance. The seat isn't flat when reclined and there's no cupholders or snack trays for children. The brakes can be difficult to engage and the handlebar's height is too high for many moms who are petite. The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that is designed to be as light as it can without skimping on comfort or ease of use. It's packed with a variety of features, including a large basket and a fold that is one-handed. The only issue with this stroller is that the brakes are a little difficult to activate, and they're not locked when the stroller is folded. Stroller Safety The safety features of a stroller will keep your child safe while using it. The top-scoring strollers we've reviewed come with a five-point safety harness that has adjustable and cushioned crotch straps. This allows for a customized fit. Some strollers have a padded cushion that shields your child's head should they roll off or fall out of their seat. Some strollers feature a safety brake that locks two wheels, which is particularly important for strollers that run jogging as it stops them from rolling over when they're going down escalators or stairs, where they could be particularly dangerous for children. In our tests, strollers' maneuverability was rated in three different ways. We evaluated it on the basis of a stroller's ability to turn and bounce when bumps and dips occur as well as its user-friendliness with a child loaded, and its ability to traverse rough terrain. We also assessed the ease of opening and closing the safety harness as well as folding and unfolding the stroller, changing the backrest and height of the handlebar as well as operating the brakes as well as attaching and removing car seats (if necessary). We have found that 3-wheel strollers are easier to maneuver than the 4-wheel models however this benefit diminishes as your baby grows heavier. We recommend selecting a model with hand brakes. It can help you slow down or stop without exerting as much effort as using your body by itself. However, a lot of the most efficient swivel wheel strollers offer this feature and only one of our top fixed-wheel models does. It's important to consider how often you will need to take your stroller up a set of stairs or an escalator, and if or not it will be safe to do this with the stroller in the same place. Elevators and stairs are more hazardous because they have moving mechanical components that make it difficult to control your stroller. If you're able to choose to, we suggest using an elevator or having a second adult help you carry the stroller. Some of the most highly-rated strollers are able to be carried up the stairs or an escalator, with their safety brakes engaged and locked however it's better to be safer than not be.
