3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

There are three-wheel compact strollers for anyone whether you're seeking a jogging stoller or an all-purpose stroller to use for 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 traveling with your child more enjoyable. If you're looking for a new 3-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller look for features that are convenient, such as large storage baskets as well as a tray for the parent with cup holders, an adjustable canopy and much more. The key is determining what features are not 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 comes with a variety of convenient features that will keep parents comfortable and happy. The handlebar adjusts to three different positions to accommodate caregivers of all sizes, and the wrist strap helps ensure that the stroller doesn't roll away while you're jogging. The Wayfinder has the largest sunshade of all the strollers we tested and a clear window at the top allows children to see out when they're resting. Jenni's 3 wheel buggy for Sale-year old found the seat to be comfortably padded, so bumps in the road won't cause him to shake.

This jogging stoller features a handbrake to help you keep your grip on slippery surfaces. It folds into the size of a compact, slim package that takes up very little space in the trunk of your vehicle, and it can be converted into a travel system with select infant car seats from brands such as Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex with the purchase of an adapter. It also works with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet.

Solid tires are a must for strollers that will be used on rough terrains. Solid tires aren't as comfortable as spongy or air-filled tires, but they're perfect to navigate bumps and potholes.

This stroller for jogging features a fold-up that requires just two steps. It locks into place when folded, and it's small enough to fit in most elevators. It's not as easy than our other four-wheel strollers to maneuver and the locking mechanism is somewhat difficult to understand. It requires pressing the button in the foot area on the front of the stroller, and then lifting the handle. We'd like to see a more simple system that simply clicks into place or opens when pulled.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the entire unit is an important consideration. A heavier stroller tends to be more stable than a lighter one and could provide better performance in rough terrain. However, many parents find that strollers with lighter weights are more maneuverable and more suitable for use in everyday situations.

The shape and size of the wheels is another important aspect. Some strollers come with larger wheels, such as jogging ones, which makes the ride easier for your baby. However, larger wheels also add to the overall weight of the stroller, which can make it difficult to fold or transport and store.

Some models in our collection have air-filled wheels that offer a safe, comfortable ride to your child even on rough terrain. However, air-filled tires can easily become flat, which will need to be changed out. If you plan to take your stroller on the road a lot, we recommend that you select one with solid wheels. These tires are able to endure contact with various surfaces more frequently and last longer.

Strollers with front wheels that swivel are ideal for navigating stairs and escalators safely. Falls on escalators or stairs are the most frequent injuries to strollers. They can be especially hazardous for infants. If you cannot avoid taking the stairs or escalator with your stroller, we suggest using it only when the child is securely strapped in the seat and is close to you as you walk up or down.

Some strollers come as a travel system which includes both the car seat and the stroller. These types of products are usually more expensive and less convenient than their stand-alone counterparts and may not perform well in the long term. Many parents are disappointed when they purchase a bundle product because it might not include all the features they would like or may not be compatible with their car or child 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 higher-end model in the future.

Stroller Folding

The top 3 wheel buggy wheel compact strollers fold easily and quickly to make storage and transport effortless. Some even lock into place automatically when you open them. This feature is particularly useful for families who frequently take public transport or drive to go on a walk.

Three-wheeled strollers can be maneuvered effortlessly in tight spaces, like aisles of grocery stores or other crowded areas. A lot of them are equipped with suspension systems for a smoother ride, which is especially beneficial on sidewalks that are bumpy.

If you're looking for a stroller that is jogging-friendly that doesn't weigh you down Guava Roam Crossover is an excellent option. It's a good-looking stroller that can be used as a travel system, with the car seat adapters for Nuna Maxi-Cosi and Cybex infant carseats as well as the bassinet for the Uppababy (car seats and stroller board sold separately). The stroller folds in two steps and locks into position when it is opened.

The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another attractive 3-wheeled jogging stroller with a nice design. The stroller is more expensive than our top choices, but is worth it if you travel a lot or live in a city. This lightweight stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1) and features an adjustable, padded 5-point harness that is no-rethread and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller for infants and toddlers, if you have an adapter for infant car seats.

The Babyzen is a quality product with a few nice features. It has a spacious recline, and it also has extra storage. However, some parents are disappointed with its performance. The seat isn't fully flat when it's reclining, and there aren't any cup holders or a tray to serve snacks to children. The brakes can also be difficult to engage and the handlebars can be too high for some moms.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that is designed to be as light as it can without skimping on comfort or convenience. It has a long list of features that are impressive like a huge basket and a one-handed fold. The only issue is that the brakes could be a bit difficult to engage and don't stay locked when the stroller is folded.

Stroller Safety

A stroller's safety features will help to keep your child safe during use. Some of the best-scoring models in our review have five-point harnesses with padded, adjustable crotch straps that allow for a customised fit. Some have a cushioned seat cushion to protect your child's head in the event that they fall out of the seat or roll off. Some strollers come with a safety brake that locks two wheels. This is essential for strollers that run jogging since it prevents them from rolling over when they're going up or down escalators or stairs which can be particularly risky for children.

In our tests the maneuverability of strollers was rated in three different ways. We evaluated it based on the capability to turn and bounce when bumps and dips occur, its ease of use with a child loaded and its ability to traverse rough terrain. We also evaluated the ease of opening and closing the safety harness, folding and unfolding the stroller, changing its backrest and handlebar height as well as operating the brakes as well as attaching and removing car seats (if applicable).

We discovered that strollers with three wheels were easier to maneuver however the advantages decreased as the weight of the baby increased. This is why we recommend the model with a hand brake that helps you slow down and stop without as much effort than using your body alone. However, a lot of the top-scoring swivel wheel strollers do not have this option and only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel models does.

You should also consider the frequency you'll have to utilize your stroller to go up and down stairs or escalators, and if it's safe to do so. Stairs and elevators can be more dangerous because they have moving mechanical parts that make it difficult to control your stroller. If you're able to choose to, we suggest using an elevator or having an adult help you carry the stroller. Some of the best-rated strollers can be taken up or down a set of stairs with their safety brake engaged. However, it's safer to be safe rather than sorry.
