Wendy Schmitz, Senior Review Writer and Managing Editor of Sentry tested these models to the test on both road surfaces and off-road ones. They also evaluated the seating comfort for children.

Stroller Features

The best lightweight 3 wheel stroller strollers come with features that make traveling with your child a lot easier. If you're shopping for a new 3 wheel travel stroller-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller look for features that make life easier, such as a large storage basket and a tray for parents with cup holders, an adjustable canopy, and more. It's important to know what features are important to you and your family members and those you can live without.

The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller with plenty of convenient features to keep moms as well as dads content and comfortable. The handlebar adjusts to three wheel pushchair different positions to accommodate caregivers of all heights and the wrist strap helps ensure that the stroller doesn't slide away when you're running. The Wayfinder features the biggest 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 three-year-old son reportedly found the seat to have comfortable cushion, so bumps in the road didn't bother him.

The stroller is equipped with a hand brake that helps you control slippery surfaces. It can fold into a slim, compact package that will take up little space in the trunk of your car. It is also possible to convert it to an e-travel system by purchasing an adapter. It is also compatible with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet.

Solid tires are crucial for strollers that will be used on rough terrains. They're not as comfortable as spongy-filled or air-filled tires, but they're excellent to navigate bumps and potholes.

The stroller folds up in just two simple steps. It locks in place when folded, and is compact enough to fit into the majority of elevators. It's not as easy as our other four-wheel strollers, and the locking mechanism can be a bit complicated. It requires pressing an icon on the front of the stroller, closing a flap near the foot area, and then lifting the handle. We'd prefer a simpler system that just clicks in place or opens by pulling.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the overall stroller is an important factor to consider. A heavier stroller is more stable and will perform better on uneven terrain. Many parents find a lighter stroller easier to maneuver and is more suitable for daily use.

The shape and size of the wheels is an important feature. Some strollers have larger wheels, such as those for jogging which can make the ride smoother for your baby. The larger wheels can add weight to the stroller, making it more difficult to fold and store, transport and fold.

Certain models in our collection have wheels filled with air that provide an enjoyable, stable ride for your child on rough terrain. Air-filled tires are prone to flattening and must replace them. If you are planning to take your stroller with you a lot, we recommend you purchase a model with solid wheels. They can withstand contact with different surfaces more frequently and last longer.

Strollers with front wheels that swivel are ideal for getting around stairs and escalators in a safe manner. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most common accidents that occur due to strollers and are particularly dangerous for infants. If you can't avoid taking the stairs or escalator in your stroller, we advise using it only when the child is securely strapped in the seat and is close to you when walking up or down.

Some strollers come as a travel system which includes both the car seat as well as the stroller. These products are often more expensive and less convenient than their stand-alone counterparts and they may not be as effective in the long run. Additionally many parents regret buying a bundled product as it may not include all of the features they want or may turn out to not be compatible with their car or child seat. If you are planning to upgrade in the future, we recommend that you buy a stroller separate from car seats or capsules.

Stroller Folding

The most compact 3 wheel strollers fold easily and store. Some of them lock automatically when you open them. This feature is particularly useful for families that frequently use public transportation or drive to take a walk.

Three-wheel strollers are designed to navigate through tight spaces such as aisles of grocery stores and other areas that are crowded easily. Many also come equipped with suspension systems that give a smoother ride for your baby which is especially helpful on slippery sidewalks.

The Guava Roam is a light stroller for jogging. The stroller is a stylish stroller that can be used as a part of a travel set-up with adapters for car seats to fit Nuna MaxiCosi, Cybex, and Nuna infant carseats, as well as the Uppababy Bassinet. (Car seats and stroller boards are sold separately). The stroller has a simple two-step fold and locks in place when it is opened.

The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another nice-looking 3 wheel buggies-wheeled jogging stroller. This stroller is more expensive than our top choices, but worth it if you travel often or live in a city. This lightweight 3 wheel buggy stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1) and features a padded, adjustable five-point harness with no-rethread straps and a large basket. It can also be used as a pram for infants or toddlers (with an infant car seat adapter).

Although the Babyzen offers some great features, including an ample recline and additional storage, certain parents have been dissatisfied with its performance. The seat doesn't lay flat when it reclines and there are no cupholders or snack trays for children. The brakes are a bit difficult to activate and the handlebars can be too high for some moms.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that's designed to be as light as it can without skimping on comfort or convenience. It comes with a plethora of features, including a spacious basket and a one-handed fold. The only drawback is that the brakes may be difficult to engage and don't remain locked when the stroller is folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller should ensure that your child is safe using it. Some of the best-scoring models in our review feature a five-point harness with adjustable crotch straps that are padded and padded that allow for a customized fit. Others have a padded seat cushion to safeguard your child's head should they fall out of the seat or fall off. Some strollers come with a safety lock that secures both wheels. This is especially important for those who run, since it prevents them from tumbling over while walking up and down escalators or stairs.

In our tests, we evaluated the strollers' maneuverability in three different ways: a product's ability to turn and bounce over bumps and dips, its ability to maneuver when laden with a child and its capability to travel over rough surfaces. We also evaluated the ease of opening and closing the safety harness as well as folding and unfolding the stroller, altering its backrest and handlebar height as well as operating the brakes as well as attaching and removing car seats (if applicable).

We found that 3-wheel strollers were more maneuverable, but the advantage decreased as the weight of the baby increased. That's why we recommend choosing the model with a hand brake, which assists you in slowing down and come to a stop without as much effort than using your body alone. Many of the top-scoring swivel-wheel strollers do not come with this option. Only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel strollers has it.

It is important to consider the frequency you'll require to take your stroller up an escalator or a set of stairs. an escalator, and whether it's safe to do so with the stroller in the same place. Escalators and stairs present more of a hazard due to the fact that they move mechanical parts which make it difficult to control the movements of the stroller. If you are able use an elevator or having another adult assist you in carrying the stroller. Some of the top-scoring strollers may be taken up or down a set of stairs with the safety brake engaged. It's always safer to be safe rather than sorry.
