3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review There are three-wheel strollers that fit all ages, whether you're looking for a jogging stoller or a stroller for all-purpose use on a daily basis. The Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through the paces on both pavement and off-road surfaces, aswell as assessing the comfort of children in the seats. Stroller Features The most effective strollers have features that make traveling with your child much easier. Find features that make life easier for you, like a large bin for storage, a tray for parents with cup holders, an adjustable canopy and more, when shopping for a new stroller. The key is determining what features are non-negotiable for you and your family and which ones you could be content with. BOB Gear Wayfinder is our top-rated stroller for running. It has many convenient features that will keep parents comfortable and happy. The handlebar can be adjusted to three different positions to accommodate caregivers of all heights, and the wrist strap is designed to ensure that the stroller doesn't slide away when you're jogging. The Wayfinder has the largest sunshade among the strollers we tested and a glass window on the top lets children to look out while they rest. Jenni's 3-year old found the seat to be comfortable cushioned, which means bumps on the road don't make him feel too shaken. This jogging stoller comes with an automatic handbrake that helps you keep control on slippery surfaces. It can be folded into a compact, slim package that will take up little space in your car's trunk. You can also convert it into an entire travel system by buying an adapter. It also works with the Uppababy Mesa V2 Bassinet. If you plan on tackling rough terrains, solid tires are essential for strollers of any kind. While they don't offer the same degree of comfort as air-filled or foam-filled tires, they're ideal for navigating potholes and bumps effortlessly. The jogging stroller folds in just two steps. It locks when folded, and it's small 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 clicking a button on the front of the stroller, a flap that is located near the foot area, and then raising a handle. We'd prefer a simpler system that just clicks in place or opens by pulling. Stroller Weight The overall weight is a significant consideration. A stroller that is heavier is more stable and can perform better on rough terrain. However, many parents discover that strollers with lighter weights are easier to maneuver and is more suitable for use in everyday situations. Another important aspect of a stroller is its wheel size and the type. Certain strollers, such as ones that jog have wheels that are larger and will provide a more comfortable ride for baby. The larger wheels can weigh more on the stroller and make it more difficult to fold and transport, as well as store. Certain models in our collection have air-filled tires that are designed to offer an enjoyable and stable ride for your child even over rough terrain. Air-filled tires are more prone to flattening, so you have to replace them. If you intend to take your stroller on the road frequently, we recommend that you choose a model with solid wheels. These tires can endure contact with different surfaces more frequently and last longer. Strollers with swivel front wheels are ideal for navigating stairs and escalators safely. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most common accidents involving strollers, and can be particularly dangerous for infants. If you are unable to avoid using the escalator or stairs with your stroller, we recommend that you only use it if your child is secured in the seat. Also, keep them close to you when you walk up and down. Some strollers are available as complete travel systems that includes the car seat and stroller are sold together as a single unit. These types of products are usually more expensive and convenient than their separate counterparts and they may not be as effective in the long-term. In addition many parents regret purchasing a bundle product because it may not include all the features they want or could turn out to be incompatible with their vehicle or child's seat. We suggest you select an infant stroller that can be purchased separately from the capsule or car seat if you want to upgrade to a more sophisticated model in the near future. Stroller Folding The top 3 wheel compact strollers fold quickly and easily to make storage and transport a breeze. Some even lock in position automatically when you open them. This feature is particularly beneficial for families who frequently use public transportation or take a car to take a walk. Three-wheeled strollers can be pushed easily in tight spaces like grocery store aisles or other areas that are crowded. Many also come equipped with suspension systems that give a smoother stroll for your child, which can be especially useful on sidewalks that are bumpy. The Guava Roam is a compact stroller that can be used for jogging. It's a good-looking stroller that can be used as a travel system, with the matching car seat adapters for Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex infant carseats as well as the Uppababy bassinet (car seats and stroller boards are sold separately). The stroller has an easy two-step fold that locks in place when it is opened. The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another nice-looking 3-wheeled jogging stroller. This stroller is more expensive than our top picks but is worth it if you travel frequently or live in a city. The lightweight stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1) and comes with a padded, adjustable, five-point no-rethread harness and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller for infants or toddlers who are young, with an infant car seat adapter. While the Babyzen has some nice features, such as a roomy recline and extra storage, some parents have been disappointed with its performance. The seat doesn't lie flat when reclined and there aren't cup holders or snack trays for kids. The brakes are 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 sacrificing comfort or convenience. It's packed with a variety of features, including a spacious basket and a one-handed fold. The only drawback is that the brakes could be difficult to engage and don't remain locked when the stroller is folded. Stroller Safety The safety features of a stroller should assist in keeping your child safe while using it. The top-scoring strollers we've reviewed have a five-point safety harness that has adjustable and padded straps for the crotch. This allows for a custom fit. Some strollers come with a padded cushion that protects your child's head should they fall off or roll out of their seat. Some strollers are equipped with a safety lock that secures both wheels. This is particularly important for jogging walkers, as it prevents them from tumbling over while going up or down stairs and escalators. In our tests the maneuverability of strollers was assessed in three different ways. We rated it based on a product's ability to turn and bounce when bumps or dips are encountered and its comfort with a child in it, and its ability to travel over rough terrain. 3 wheel buggy evaluated the ease of opening and closing the safety harness, folding and unfolding the stroller, adjusting the height of its backrest and handlebar, operating the brakes, as well as attaching and removing car seats (if appropriate). We found that strollers with 3 wheels were more maneuverable however, the advantages decreased as the weight of the baby increased. We recommend choosing the model that has hand brakes. It will allow you to slow down or stop without exerting the same effort as your body alone. However, a lot of the top-scoring swivel wheel strollers do not offer this feature and only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel models has it. It is also important to consider how often you'll need to use your stroller to go up or down stairs or escalators, and if it is safe to do this. Escalators and stairs present more dangers due to the fact that they move mechanical parts that make it difficult to control the motion of the stroller. If you can use an elevator or having an adult assist you in carrying the stroller. Some of the top-scoring strollers can be taken up or down a set of stairs with the safety brake engaged. However, it's better to be safe than regretting.
