Complete with infant car seats for groups 0+ this pushchair that's all-in-one is perfect for infants and toddlers. It's also very affordable and comes with many parental-friendly features like an enormous basket and storage space at the front and the back.
Features
If you are a fan of the outdoors, and want to take your little one on muddy woodland walks, or strolls on the main street, a three-wheeled pushchair system is a great choice. All-terrain 3-wheel prams are easily maneuverable in tight spaces or on public transport because of their small, freestanding folding. Many models let you connect a car seat that is compatible with the model, so that your baby can begin their journey right away.
The UPPAbaby 3-wheel Ridge pushchair is a popular model that offers impressive all-terrain capability. It has large, foam-filled tyres with suspension to ensure a smooth ride. This model has a variety of parent-friendly features, including the ability to adjust the height of the handbar as well as a soft tray for parents with two cup holders and access to the front and back baskets.
The Joie Litetrax is the lightest 3-wheel all-terrain stroller on the market. It collapses into a compact, self-standing fold with a single tug, saving space and reducing the hassle. The lightweight stroller is paired with the Joie infant carrier to create a complete travel system and is ideal for on-the-go adventures.
Design
The majority of people think of 4-wheel models when they think of a pushchair, buggy or pram. This could be due to the fact that they sport an easier to maneuver design and often offer an even bigger shopping basket. There are also three-wheel options that offer the same stability but with a more movable shape.
The main benefit of a 3 wheel pushchair is their ability turn quickly and negotiate tight corners. The close proximity of the front pair of wheels gives them this extra maneuverability and they're a good option for situations where you'll need to navigate obstacles such as high tree roots or kerbs. Some 3-wheel pushchairs also have the ability to lock to ensure that the front wheel can be locked into position for when you're on a smoother surface.
The majority of travel systems comprise the pushchair that can be snagged onto a Group 0+ (suitable for babies as young as) car seat. It's as simple as that! can move your baby easily from the car into the pushchair and back. This is great if you are going to be driving and walking with your baby often.
There are even 3-wheel pushchairs that act more like 4-wheelers, using small 'dummy' wheels positioned on the front of the frame. This adds stability and weight, yet the triangular design allows for plenty of manoeuvrability. They are a favorite choice for parents who wish to take their pushchairs on rocky outdoor terrains and bumpy urban streets.
Wheels
The iCandy Orange pushchair is a ideal choice for parents looking to take their child or children with them. It is an all-terrain stroller made to handle the rough terrain of woodland walks, gravel roads and market town cobbles. The larger wheels allow it to glide smoothly over all surfaces. There's an excellent suspension that bounces over bumps, which means your child will have a comfortable ride.
The orange pushchair comes with a large, deep and wide shopping basket. It's perfect for storing your essentials. It's a surprisingly easy pushchair to maneuver, and it has an automatic lock that keeps it together when you fold it down. It's not the smallest fold at L:84 x W62 x D29, but it's relatively compact for a 3 or four wheel pushchair. The iCandy features a self-standing frame so you don't have to lift or hold the handlebar.
In addition to the world-facing seat included in the box, car seat adaptors are also included to transform this into a travel set when you use your infant carrier. It also works with UPPAbaby's carrycot, and is compatible with many infant carriers.
The handles are set to a height where most parents can comfortably reach them. We'd like to see more variety in the handlebar positions to allow parents who are shorter also have a more comfortable push. The foam handlebar does feel like a bit plastic and cheap however, which might be a bit unsettling for certain buyers. It's a reasonably priced pushchair though, so it's worth a look if you require a four or three-wheeler that can cope with any terrain.
Storage
There are a variety of storage options for you and your child to use on your trips. There's a huge deep basket underneath the chassis with a great capacity to hold all your groceries and other items. The hood of the pushchair is a handy pocket with zipper, a place to store your raincover and a footmuff.
It's simple to convert this light pushchair into an entire travel system. The clever design of iCandy lets you simply click the car seat or carrycot into the pre-made adaptor sockets that are on the hub's folding mechanism and you're set to go.
For older siblings there's an optional Ride-on Board which fits neatly inside the back of the basket, they'll be enthralled by climbing onto the back to be closer to their siblings when you're out and out and about. If they're taller the handle made of foam can be adjusted between the 98cm to 108cm.
All iCandy b-AGILEs can be fitted with a car seat, or carrycot. This makes them great tandem pushchairs. They fold easily and store, and can fit in most car boot spaces. It's a pity that there are no hooks on the pushchair handles to hang your bag however, that's an insignificant issue.
Comfort
A good pushchair will provide a pleasant ride for your child. A well-designed travel system comes with a variety of convenience features that can make your life easier as a parent. The Quinny Buzz stroller and car seat is a good example. It has a clever automatic fold that can be opened to create a truly flexible pushchair.
