3 wheeler buggies Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

If you're looking for a pushchair to tackle woodland walks or strolls on the high street, an all terrain pushchair with a great maneuverability will be the perfect choice. These models typically come with large wheels and suspension that gives a smooth ride on bumpy terrain.

Most are suitable from birth and come with a lie-flat seat or newborn carrycot. They also usually have foam-filled never-flat tyres to reduce maintenance.

Suspension

A genuine all-terrain pushchair will have a good suspension which is designed to be extremely smooth on rough terrain and help your child to feel comfortable and at ease. The wheels are typically large and puncture-proof to protect against damage from sharp sticks or rocks.

Some all-terrain strollers allow you to switch between tyres with different conditions. Based on the type of terrain you want to explore, some all-terrain pushchairs have an swivel front wheel that can be locked for stability or unlocked for more manoeuvrability when needed.

For added peace of mind Certain all-terrain pushchairs have a handbrake that is lockable, which is more accessible to use with your hands free instead of an ordinary brake pedal located placed on the handlebars' sides. This is a great feature if you are an avid climber.

If you don't want to go as far as an all-terrain stroller, there are many strollers that have very good - but not the ultimate off-road capability, with excellent suspension and big wheels. These are usually cheaper than full-on all-terrain buggy models, and can be suitable for short strolls in the countryside or trips to the park.

Many of these pushchairs can be used for babies from birth, whether with the carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. Be aware, however, that when it comes to pushing over bumps and dips, the seats aren't completely flat - as per EU regulations they only have to meet minimum standards for a reclining position of about 150 degrees. Certain brands, like Graco, have overcome this issue with their "comfitech" suspension in the seat that allows the seat to recline at a slightly more flatter angle to provide a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP All-Terrain Pushchair, that can be used in conjunction with the Graco Infant Car Seat to create a 3 wheel running stroller-in-1 travel system.
