3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

There are three-wheel compact strollers for everyone regardless of whether you're looking for a jogging stoller or a stroller for all-purpose use every day. Managing Editor Sentry and Senior Review Writer Wendy Schmitz put these models through their paces on pavement and off-road surfaces, aswell as testing children's comfort in the seats.

Stroller Features

The best strollers offer features that allow you to travel with your child more enjoyable. Find features that simplify life for you, like a large bin for storage, a tray for the parent with cup holders, an adjustable canopy and more when you are shopping for a new stroller. It's important to know the features that are important to you and your family, and those you can live without.

The BOB Gear Wayfinder, our top-rated jogging stroller with a variety of useful features to keep moms as well as dads content and comfortable. The handlebar can be adjusted to three different heights to accommodate caregivers. A wrist strap helps keep the stroller from slipping while you jog. The Wayfinder also comes with the largest sunshade in our testing group with a clear view on top that lets kids observe the world while they rest. Jenni's 3 wheeler stroller-year old found the seat to be comfortably cushioned, which means bumps on the road don't make him feel too shaken.

This stroller for jogging also comes with an automatic hand brake that can help you control 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 convert into a travel system using the best infant car seats from brands including Nuna, Maxi-Cosi, and Cybex by purchasing an adapter. It also works with the Uppababy Mesa V2 bassinet.

Solid tires are a must for strollers that will be used on rough terrains. Although they don't offer the same level of comfort as air-filled or foam-filled tires, they're great for navigating bumps and potholes with ease.

The jogging stroller folds in just two steps. It locks in place when folded, and is compact enough to fit into most elevators. It's not as easy as some of our other four-wheel strollers to maneuver and the locking mechanism can be a little difficult to understand. It involves clicking an icon on the front of the stroller, opening a flap on the foot area, and lifting the handle. We'd prefer a simpler system that clicks in place or opens by pulling.

Stroller Weight

The weight of the overall stroller is a crucial factor to take into account. A heavier stroller is likely to be more stable than a stroller that is lighter and can provide better performance in rough terrain. Many parents find a lighter stroller more maneuverable, and more suitable for everyday use.

The shape and size of the wheels is another important feature. Some strollers, such as jogging strollers have wheels that are larger and can offer a more comfortable ride for baby. However, larger wheels add to the overall weight of the stroller, which can make it harder to fold or transport and store.

Some models in our selection have air-filled tires that are designed to offer an enjoyable and stable ride for your child even on rough terrain. However, tires that are filled with air can easily become flat, which will need to be changed out. If you intend to travel frequently with your stroller, we recommend a model with solid tires that can withstand regular contact with different surfaces and last for a longer time.

Strollers with swivel front wheels are ideal for navigating stairs and escalators safely. Falls on escalators or stairs are the most common stroller injuries. They can be especially dangerous for infants. If you cannot avoid taking the stairs or escalator while using your stroller, we recommend using it only when the child is safely strapped into the seat and hold them close to you as you walk up or down.

Some strollers come as a travel system that includes both the car seat and the stroller. While these products often boast attractive price tags and provide convenience by the time spent shopping but they are usually more expensive than their stand-alone counterparts and may not function as well in the long term. In addition, many parents later regret buying a bundled product as it might not have all of the features they would like or may turn out to not be compatible with their car or child seat. If you are planning to upgrade your product in the future, we recommend that you buy a stroller separate from the car seat or capsule.

Stroller Folding

The top 3 wheel compact strollers fold easily and quickly to make storage and transport effortless. Some even lock into the position automatically after you open them. This feature is especially useful for families that frequently take public transport or drive to walk.

Three-wheeled strollers can be pushed effortlessly in tight spaces, like aisles of grocery stores or other crowded areas. Many are also equipped with suspension systems that provide an easier stroll for your child and can be particularly helpful on bumpy sidewalks.

The Guava Roam is a lightweight jogging stroller. It's a good-looking stroller that can be used as a travel system, with the matching car seat adapters for Nuna, Maxi-Cosi and Cybex infant carseats as well as the bassinet Uppababy (car seats and stroller board sold separately). The stroller folds down in two steps and locks in place when it is opened.

Another stylish 3 wheel jogger-wheel jogging stroller is the Babyzen Yoyo 2. The stroller is more expensive than our top picks but is worth it if you travel frequently or live in the city. The lightweight stroller folds down to a small size (20.5 x 17.3 wheel stroller reversible seat x 7.1) and has an adjustable, padded five-point harness with no-rethread straps and a large basket. It can be used as a stroller suitable for infants or toddlers who are young, with an adapter for infant car seats.

While the Babyzen has some nice features, like a roomy recline and extra storage, some parents are dissatisfied with its performance. The seat doesn't lie flat when reclined and there's no cup holders or a tray for snacks for children. The brakes are a little difficult to engage and the handlebars can be too high for some moms.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that is designed to be as light as possible without skimping on comfort or ease of use. It comes with a long list of amazing features, such as a large basket and a one-handed fold. The only downside to this stroller is that the brakes are a little difficult to activate, and they're not locked when the stroller has been folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller must ensure that your child is safe using it. Some of the top-scoring products in our review have a five-point harness 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 roll off or fall out of their seat. Some strollers are equipped with a safety lock that secures both wheels. This is particularly important for jogging walkers, as they are less likely to fall over while walking up and down escalators or stairs.

In our tests, we rated the maneuverability of strollers in three different ways: a stroller's ability to bounce and turn over dips and bumps, its ability to maneuver when loaded with children and its capability to maneuver over rough surfaces. We also evaluated the ease of opening and closing the safety harness folding and unfolding the stroller, adjusting the height of its backrest and handlebar, operating the brakes, as being able to attach and remove car seats (if appropriate).

We discovered that some 3 wheel travel system-wheel strollers are more easy to maneuver than 4-wheel options however this benefit diminishes as your baby grows heavier. That's why we recommend choosing the model with hand brakes, which assists you in slowing down and come to a stop without as much exertion as using body power alone. Many of the top-scoring swivel-wheel strollers do not come with this option. Only one of our top-rated fixed-wheel strollers has it.

It's important to consider the frequency that you will require to take your stroller on a set of stairs or an escalator, and if it's safe to do it with the stroller still in place. Elevators and stairs pose more dangers due to the fact that they move mechanical parts, making it difficult to control the movement of the stroller. We suggest finding a solution to these obstacles, such as an elevator, if you have one or have a person else to carry the stroller up and down with you. Some of the top-scoring strollers are able to be taken onto a set of stairs or an escalator, with their safety brakes engaged and locked but it's always better to be safer than sorry.
