3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

There are three-wheel compact strollers for all ages whether you're looking for a jogging stroller or a stroller for all-purpose use on a daily basis. Wendy Schmitz, Senior Review Writer and Managing Editor of Sentry, put these models to the test on pavement and off-road surfaces. They also evaluated the safety of the seats for children.

Stroller Features

The best strollers have features that allow you to travel with your child easier. If you're looking for a new 3-wheel stroller or a 4-wheel stroller, look for convenience features like an ample storage basket as well as a tray for the parent with cup holders, a movable canopy and more. It's important to know the features that are important to you and your family, and which you can do without.

The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller, comes with plenty of convenient features that will keep moms and dads content and comfortable. The handlebar adjusts 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 also comes with the largest sunshade in our testing group with a clear view at the top to let children peek out while they're resting. Jenni's three-year-old son reportedly found the seat to have comfortable cushion, so bumps on the road didn't bother him.

This jogging stoller has the handbrake to help keep your grip on slippery surfaces. It folds down to a slim, compact package that occupies a small space in the trunk of your car, and it can convert into a travel system 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 on taking on rough terrain, tires are a must-have for strollers of any kind. They're not as comfortable as spongy-filled or air-filled tires but they're great for navigating bumps and potholes.

The stroller folds down in just two steps. It locks when folded, and it's small enough to fit into the majority of elevators. However it's not as simple to move around as our other 4-wheel strollers, and the lock mechanism is a bit confusing. It involves pressing an icon on the front of the stroller, closing a flap near the foot area, and lifting the handle. We'd like to see a simpler system that clicks into place or opens when pulled.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the overall stroller is a crucial aspect to take into consideration. A heavier stroller tends to be more stable than one that is lighter and can provide more performance on rough terrain. However, many parents discover that strollers with lighter weights are easier to maneuver and more suitable for daily use.

Another important feature of a stroller is the size of its wheels and type. Some strollers come with larger wheels, such as those for jogging, which makes the ride easier for your baby. The larger wheels can add weight to the stroller, making it difficult to fold, transport and store.

Certain models we offer include air-filled tires that are designed to provide a comfortable and stable ride for your child even on rough terrain. However, air-filled tires can easily become flat, which will require you to change them out. If you plan 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 wheels at the front are great for safely navigating escalators as well as stairs. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most frequent injuries to strollers. They can be particularly hazardous for infants. If you are unable to avoid the stairs or escalator in your stroller, we suggest using it only when your child is securely strapped into 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 and the stroller. While these types of products typically boast attractive price tags and provide convenience by cutting down on shopping time however, they are typically more expensive than their stand-alone counterparts and may not function as well in the long run. In addition, many parents later regret buying a bundled product as it might not have all of the features they want, or it could prove to not be compatible with their vehicle or child seat. We suggest that you purchase a stroller that is purchased separately from the capsule or car seat in case you want to upgrade to a more sophisticated model in the near future.

Stroller Folding

The best compact 3 wheel baby strollers wheel strollers fold easily and put away. Some lock automatically into place when you open them. This feature is particularly useful for families who regularly use public transportation or take a car to take a walk.

Three-wheeled strollers are able to maneuver effortlessly in tight spaces, like aisles of grocery stores or other areas with a lot of people. They also have suspension systems that offer a more comfortable ride for your little one and can be particularly useful on sidewalks that are bumpy.

The Guava Roam is a light stroller for jogging. 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 boards are sold separately). The stroller comes with a simple two-step fold and can be locked once it is it is opened.

The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another stylish 3 wheel strollers-wheeled jogging stroller that looks nice. It's a bit pricier than some of our top picks, however it's well worth the money if you love to travel or reside in a city. The stroller is lightweight and folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 wheel stroller x 7.1) and features a padded, adjustable, five-point no-rethread harness and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller for infants and toddlers, if you have an infant car seat adapter.

The Babyzen is a great product with a few nice features. It is spacious in its recline, and it also comes with storage space. However there are some parents who are dissatisfied by its performance. The seat isn't completely flat when reclined and there aren't any cups or a snack tray for kids. The brakes can be difficult to engage, and the handlebar height is too high for many short moms.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that is designed to be as light as is possible without skimping on comfort or convenience. It's packed with a variety of features, including a large basket and a one-handed fold. The only drawback to this stroller is that the brakes are difficult to engage, and they're not locked when the stroller has been folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller should ensure your child's safety while using it. Some of the best-scoring models in our review feature five-point harnesses with padded, adjustable crotch straps that allow for a customized fit. Some strollers come with a padded cushion that shields your child's head in the event that they fall off or roll out of their seat. Some strollers have a safety lock that secures both wheels. This is especially important for jogging walkers, as it stops them from falling over while walking up and down escalators and stairs.

In our tests the maneuverability of strollers was evaluated in three distinct ways. We evaluated it based on the ability to bounce and turn when bumps and dips are encountered, its ease of use with a child in it and its capacity to traverse rough terrain. We also evaluated the ease of opening and closing the safety harness as well as folding and unfolding the stroller, altering the height of its backrest and handlebar, operating the brakes, as also the ability to attach and remove car seats (if necessary).

We have found that 3-wheel strollers are easier to maneuver than 4-wheel options however this benefit diminishes as your baby grows heavier. This is why we recommend one with a hand brake, which helps you slow down and stop without as much effort as relying on body power alone. However, a lot of the best 3 wheel pushchair-scoring swivel wheel strollers don't offer this feature and only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel models does.

It's also important to think about how often you will need to transport your stroller down a set of stairs or an escalator, and whether or not it's safe to do this with the stroller still in place. Elevators and stairs are more hazardous because they have moving mechanical parts that make it difficult for you to control your stroller. If you can choose to, we suggest using an elevator or having an adult assist you with the stroller. Some of the best-rated strollers can be carried up a set or stairs with their safety brake engaged. It's always safer to be safe rather than regretting.
