3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

There are three-wheel strollers designed for all ages whether you're looking for a jogging stroller or an all-purpose stroller to use on a daily basis. Wendy Schmitz, Senior Review Writer and Managing Editor at Sentry tested these models to the test on both road surfaces and off-road ones. They also tested the seating comfort for children.

Stroller Features

The best strollers come with features that allow you to travel with your child a lot easier. If you're looking for a brand new 3-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller, look for features that are convenient, such as large storage baskets, parent tray with cup holders, a movable canopy and much more. It's important to determine which features are essential for you and your family members and which you can do without.

BOB Gear Wayfinder is our top-rated stroller for running. It has many useful features that will keep parents comfortable and happy. The handlebar adjusts to three different positions to accommodate caregivers of different heights and the wrist strap helps ensure that the stroller doesn't slide away while you're jogging. The Wayfinder also comes with the largest sunshade we've seen in our test group, with a clear window at the top to let children look out while they're relaxing. Jenni's 3 wheel pushchair travel system-year-old son found the seat to have a comfortable padding, which meant bumps in the road didn't cause any discomfort for him.

This jogging stoller has an automatic handbrake that helps you keep control on slippery surfaces. It folds to the size of a compact, slim package that takes up a tiny space in the trunk of your car, and it can be converted into a travel system with the best 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 on taking on rough terrains, solid tires are a must-have for any stroller. Solid tires are not as comfortable as spongy or air-filled tires, but they're excellent for navigating bumps and potholes.

This jogging stroller has an easy-to-use fold that requires just two steps. It locks in place when folded, and is compact enough to fit into the majority of elevators. It's not as easy than our other four-wheel strollers, and the locking mechanism is a little confusing. It requires pressing an arrow near the foot area on the front of stroller, and then lifting the handle. We'd prefer a simpler method that simply clicks into place or opens by pulling.

Stroller Weight

The overall weight is an important consideration. A heavier stroller is likely to be more stable than one that is lighter and could provide superior performance in rough terrain. However, many parents discover that strollers with lighter weights are easier to maneuver and more suitable for daily use.

Another important aspect of a stroller is its wheel size and the type. Certain strollers, such as jogging strollers, have larger wheels that can provide a smoother ride for baby. Larger wheels can add weight to the stroller, making it difficult to fold and store, transport and fold.

Certain models we offer have air-filled tires that are designed to offer an enjoyable and stable ride for your child even on rough terrain. Air-filled tires are more prone to flattening, and you will need to replace them. If you plan to travel a lot with your stroller, we suggest a model with solid tires that can stand up to frequent contact with various surfaces and last longer.

Strollers with swivel front wheels are great for getting around stairs and escalators in a safe manner. Falls on escalators or stairs are the most frequent accidents that occur due to strollers and are particularly hazardous for infants. If you are unable to avoid using the escalator and stairs with your stroller, we suggest that you only use it when your child is secured in the seat. Also keep them 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. While these types of products typically boast attractive prices and offer convenience by reducing shopping time, they are generally more expensive than standalone models and may not function as well over the long run. Many parents regret buying bundle products because they may not have all the features they would like or may not be compatible with their car or child's seat. We recommend you choose a stroller that is 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 easily and quickly to make storage and transport easy. Some even lock into the position automatically after you open them. This feature can be especially beneficial for families who regularly take public transportation or drive before going on walks.

Three-wheel strollers are designed to move through tight spaces such as aisles of grocery stores and other areas that are crowded with ease. Many are also equipped with suspension systems that offer a more comfortable ride for your baby, which can be especially helpful on bumpy sidewalks.

The Guava Roam is a lightweight jogging stroller. It's a stylish stroller that can be used as a travel system with the car seat adapters for Nuna Maxi-Cosi, Nuna and Cybex infant carseats, as well as the bassinet Uppababy (car seats and stroller board are sold separately). The stroller features an easy two-step fold that locks into place once opened.

Another nice-looking 3 wheel compact stroller-wheel jogging stroller is the Babyzen Yoyo 2. This stroller is more expensive than our top picks but is worth it if you travel a lot or live in a city. This lightweight 3 wheel stroller stroller can be folded down to a compact 20 x 17 x 7 inch size. It has five-point, non-rethread, padding on the harness. It can be used as a stroller for newborns and young toddlers with an infant car seat adapter.

The Babyzen is a quality product that has some great features. It offers a large recline, and it also has storage space. However some parents are disappointed in its performance. The seat doesn't lie flat when it is reclining and there are no cupholders or snack trays for children. The brakes can also be difficult to engage and the handlebars are a bit high for certain moms.

The Graco Fastaction stroller is designed to be as light as it is possible, but without sacrificing comfort or convenience. It has a long list of amazing features like a huge basket and a one handed fold. The only issue is that the brakes may be a bit difficult to engage and do not remain locked when the stroller is folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller must ensure your child's safety while using it. Some of the best-scoring strollers in our review have five-point safety harnesses with adjustable, padding straps for crotch. This allows for a customized fit. Some strollers have a padded cushion that protects your child's head should they fall or roll out of their seat. Some strollers feature safety brakes that lock two wheels. This is particularly important for jogging strollers as it stops them from flipping over when they're going up or down escalators or stairs which can be particularly dangerous for children.

In our tests, we rated the strollers' maneuverability in three different ways: the product's ability to turn and bounce over dips and bumps, its ease of maneuvering when loaded with a child and its capability to traverse rough terrain. We also evaluated how easy it is to open and close the safety harness, fold and unfold the stroller, adjust the backrest the height of the handlebar and brakes and then attach and remove car seats (if applicable).

We discovered that some 3 wheeler buggies-wheel strollers are more easy to maneuver than the 4-wheel models However, this advantage decreases when your baby becomes heavier. This is why we suggest choosing one with hand brakes, which helps you slow down and stop with as little effort than using your body alone. Many of the top-scoring swivel-wheel strollers don't have this option. Only one of our top-rated fixed wheel strollers has it.

It is important to think about how often you'll be required to utilize your stroller to go up or down escalators or stairs and if it's safe to do so. Escalators and stairs present greater risk because they move mechanical components that make it difficult to control the motion of the stroller. If you're able to use an elevator or having a second adult assist you in carrying the stroller. Some of the best-scoring strollers can be carried up a set of stairs or an escalator with their safety brake locked and engaged but it's always safer to be sorry.
