3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review
If you're a health-conscious person in search of a jogging stroller or just need a stroller for use in everyday life there's a compact three-wheel stroller out there for you. The Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through their paces on pavement and off-road surfaces, aswell as assessing the comfort of children in the seats.
Stroller Features
The best strollers have features that allow you to travel with your child easier. Look for features that simplify your life for you, like a large storage bin, parent tray with cups holders, adjustable canopy and more, when shopping for the latest stroller. The trick is determining which features are essential to you and your family, and which ones you're able to be content with.
The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller, comes with plenty of convenient features that will keep moms and dads comfortable and happy. The handlebar can be adjusted to three different positions to accommodate caregivers of different sizes, and the wrist strap is designed to ensure that the stroller doesn't roll away when you're running. The Wayfinder features the biggest sunshade of the strollers we tested, and a glass opening at the top that allows kids to peek out while they rest. And Jenni's 3-year-old found the seat to be comfortable padded, so bumps in the road don't shake him up too much.
This stroller for jogging also comes with a hand brake to help you control slippery surfaces. It folds down to the size of a compact, slim package that takes up a tiny space in the trunk of your vehicle, and it can convert into a travel set-up with select infant car seats from brands like Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex with the purchase of an adapter. It also works with the Uppababy Mesa V2 Bassinet.
If you're planning to tackle rough terrain, sturdy tires are a must for any stroller. They're not as comfortable as air-filled or spongy-filled tires but they're great for navigating bumps and potholes.
The stroller folds down in just two easy steps. It locks in place when folded, and is small enough to fit into the majority of elevators. It's not as simple as some of our other four-wheel strollers to maneuver, and the locking mechanism can be somewhat complicated. It involves pressing an arrow near 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 is more stable and can perform better on uneven terrain. However, many parents find that strollers with lighter weights are easier to maneuver and more suitable for daily use.
Another important feature of a stroller is its wheel size and type. Some strollers have larger wheels, such as those for jogging which can make the ride more comfortable for your baby. However, larger wheels add to the overall weight of the stroller, which can make it harder to fold and transport as well as store.
Certain models in our collection have wheels filled with air that provide a safe, comfortable ride to your child even on rough terrain. Air-filled tires are susceptible to flattening, so you have to replace them. If you are planning to travel a lot with your stroller, we suggest an option with sturdy tires that can stand up to frequent contact with various surfaces and last for a longer time.
Strollers with swivel wheel on the front are ideal for safely navigating escalators as well as stairs. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most common stroller-related injuries. They are especially hazardous for infants. If you are unable to avoid using the escalator and stairs while using your stroller, we recommend that you only use it when the child is safely strapped into the seat. Also keep them close to you as you walk up and down.
Some strollers come as a travel system which includes both the car seat as well as the stroller. While these types of products typically boast attractive price tags and provide convenience by the time spent shopping however, they are typically more expensive than their standalone counterparts and might not perform as well over the long term. In addition, many parents later regret buying a bundled product as it may not come with all of the features they desire, or it could prove to be incompatible with their vehicle or child seat. If you are planning to upgrade in the near future, we recommend that you purchase a stroller that is separate from the car seat or capsule.
Stroller Folding
The most compact 3 wheel strollers are easy to fold and store. Some even lock into the position automatically after you open them. This feature is especially beneficial for families that frequently use public transportation or drive prior to taking a an outing.
Three-wheeled strollers are able to maneuver easily in tight spaces, like grocery store aisles or other areas that are crowded. Many are also equipped with suspension systems that offer an easier ride for your baby and can be particularly helpful on bumpy sidewalks.
The Guava Roam is a light jogging stroller. The stroller is an elegant stroller that can also be used as 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 sold separately). The stroller folds in two steps and locks into position after opening.
The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another stylish 3-wheeled jogging stroller that looks nice. It's a bit more expensive than some of our top picks, however it's well worth the money If you're a lover of travel or reside in a city. This lightweight stroller can be folded down to a compact 20 x 17 x 7 inch size. It comes with five-point, no-rethread padding on the harness. It can be used as a stroller for newborns or toddlers who are young, with an adapter for infant car seats.
Although the Babyzen offers some great features, including a roomy recline and extra storage space, some parents have been disappointed with its performance. The seat doesn't lay flat when reclined and there's no cupholders or snack trays for kids. The brakes are difficult to engage and the handlebars are too high for certain moms.
The Graco Fastaction stroller is designed to be as light as possible, without sacrificing comfort or convenience. It's equipped with a lengthy list of impressive features including a large basket and a one handed fold. The only downside is that the brakes can be a bit difficult to activate and don't stay locked when the stroller is folded.
Stroller Safety
A stroller's safety features should help to keep your child secure during use. Some of the top-scoring strollers in our review feature a five-point harness with padded, adjustable crotch straps that allow for a customized fit. Some strollers come with a cushioned cushion that shields your child's head in the event that they fall or roll out of their seat. Some strollers are equipped with a safety lock that secures both wheels. This is crucial for those who run, since they are less likely to fall over while going up or down escalators or stairs.
In our tests, we evaluated the strollers' maneuverability in three different ways: a stroller's ability to turn and bounce over dips and bumps its maneuverability when loaded with children and its capacity to travel over rough surfaces. We also evaluated how easy it was to open and close the safety harness fold and unfold the stroller, adjust the backrest, handlebar height and brakes, and attach and take off car seats (if necessary).
We found that some 3-wheel strollers are easier to maneuver than the 4-wheel models, but this advantage diminishes when your baby becomes heavier. We suggest choosing the model that has a hand brake. 3 wheeler pushchair will allow you to slow down or stop without exerting as much effort as using your body by itself. However, the majority of most efficient swivel wheel strollers come with this feature and only one of our top fixed-wheel models does.
It's also important to think about how often you will have to take your stroller up a set of stairs or an escalator, and if or not it's safe to do so while the stroller is in its place. Elevators and stairs are more risky because they contain moving mechanical parts which make it difficult to control your stroller. If you can use an elevator or having an adult help you carry the stroller. Some of the top-scoring strollers can be carried up or down a set of stairs with the safety brake activated. It's always better to be safe rather than sorry.
