3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

If you're looking for a buggy to tackle woodland walks or strolls on the high street, a pushchair that is all-terrain with a great maneuverability will be an ideal choice. These models typically have large wheels and have a powerful suspension to ensure smooth rides over rough terrain and bumps.

The majority are suitable for babies and come with a lie-flat seat or a newborn carrycot. These vehicles also have tyres that never flatten, which are typically composed of foam.

Suspension

A genuine all-terrain pushchair has a good suspension that is designed to be smooth and comfortable on rough terrain. This will help your child feel relaxed and comfortable. The wheels will also be large and usually be puncture-proof to protect against damage caused by sharp sticks or rocks.

The larger tyres can enable you tackle more difficult terrain with ease and some pushchairs that are all-terrain even offering different tyres you can switch between to suit different conditions. Certain all-terrain strollers feature an swivel wheel which can be locked to offer stability, or left unlocked to allow for greater maneuverability.

For additional peace of mind, some all-terrain pushchairs will have a handbrake that is lockable, which is more accessible to use with your free hand rather than using the traditional brake pedal that is located placed on the handlebars' side. This is a great feature to have if you want to climb up difficult terrain, particularly with a child in the seat and a lot of shopping bags stashed beneath!

There are many strollers with good off-road capability, but not the ultimate. They also have big wheels and great suspension. They tend to be cheaper than full-on all-terrain buggy models and can be suitable for short walks in the countryside or trips to the park.

A lot of these pushchairs can be used for babies from birth, whether with a carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. However, be aware that when it comes to pushing over bumps and dips the seats aren't completely flat - as per EU regulations, they are required to meet minimum requirements for recline of around 150 degrees. Graco has solved this issue by introducing a new 'comfitech in-seat suspension' that lets the seat recline at a flatter angle for more comfort. This is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used with an appropriate Graco infant car seat to create a lightweight 3 wheel buggy- in one travel system.

Some all-terrain models feature foam tyres which are less prone to punctures but they're not as effective at absorption of shock and can feel harder to push than air-filled tyres.
