3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

If you’re looking for a buggy to take on woodland walks or strolls on the high street, an all-terrain pushchair with excellent maneuverability is a great choice. These types of models are typically equipped with large wheels and a suspension system that provides a smooth ride on bumpy terrain.

Many are suitable for babies and include seats that can be positioned flat or a newborn carrycot. These vehicles also have tyres that do not flatten, usually composed from foam.

Suspension

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

The larger tyres will also allow you tackle more difficult terrain with ease Some all-terrain pushchairs even offering the option of different tyres you can switch between for different conditions. Depending on the kind of terrain you like to explore Some all-terrain pushchairs come with an adjustable front wheel that can be locked for stability, or unlocked to allow for more maneuverability when required.

For additional peace of mind Certain all-terrain pushchairs include a lockable handbrake which is easier to reach and use with your hands free rather than using an ordinary brake pedal located on the side of the handlebars. This is an excellent feature if you are inclined to climb steep hills.

There are many strollers with decent off-road capability but aren’t the most powerful. They also have large wheels and excellent suspension. These are usually less expensive than full-on all terrain buggy options and will still work well for short strolls in the countryside or trips to the park.

A lot of these pushchairs are suitable starting at birth, either with an infant carrycot or a baby-ready car seat. However, be aware that when it comes to pushing over bumps and dips the seats will not lie completely flat. According to EU regulations, they have to meet the minimum requirements for reclining position of about 150deg. Graco has overcome this problem by introducing a new ‘comfitech in-seat suspension’ which allows the seat recline to a more comfortable angle for a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used with an compatible Graco infant car seat to create a 3- in 1 travel system.

Wheels

If you live in a rural area or frequently take your child on walks over rough ground an all-terrain pushchair becomes vital.
