3 Wheel Compact Stroller Review

If you're a fitness fanatic looking for a jogging stroller or just looking for an all-purpose stroller to use for everyday use, there's a three-wheel compact stroller out there for you. Wendy Schmitz, Senior Review Writer and Managing Editor of Sentry tested these models to the test on roads 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 much easier. Whether you're shopping for a brand new 3-wheel or a 4-wheel stroller look for convenience features like a large storage basket, parent tray with cup holders, a movable canopy and more. It's important to determine 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, comes with a variety of useful features to keep moms and dads comfortable and happy. The handlebar adjusts to three wheeler pushchairs 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 jogging. The Wayfinder comes with the largest sunshade of the strollers we tested and a clear opening at the top that allows children to look out when they are resting. Jenni's 3-year-old daughter found the seat to be comfortable cushioned, which means bumps on the road won't cause him to shake.

This jogging stoller comes with an automatic handbrake that helps you maintain control on slippery surfaces. It folds into a compact, slim package that will take up little space in your trunk. It is also possible to convert it into an entire travel system by buying an adapter. It also works with the Uppababy Mesa V2 Bassinet.

Solid tires are a must for strollers that are used on terrains that are rough. Solid tires are not as comfortable as air-filled or spongy-filled tires, but they're excellent to navigate bumps and potholes.

This stroller is a jogging model and features a fold-up that requires just two steps. It locks in place when folded, and is small enough to fit into most elevators. It's not as easy than our other four-wheel strollers to maneuver and the locking mechanism can be a little difficult to understand. It involves pressing a button on the front of the stroller, closing a flap that is located near the foot area, and lifting the handle. We'd like to see a simpler system that simply clicks into place or opens when pulled.

Stroller Weight

The overall weight of a stroller is a crucial factor to consider. A stroller that is heavier tends to be more stable than a stroller that is lighter and may offer better performance in rough terrain. Many parents find that a stroller with a lighter weight is easier to maneuver, and is more suitable for daily use.

The shape and size of the wheels is another important feature. Certain strollers, like those that run on jogging with larger wheels can provide a smoother ride for baby. Larger wheels can weigh more on the stroller, making it difficult to fold and transport, as well as store.

Certain models in our collection come with air-filled wheels, which provide an enjoyable, stable ride for your child on rough terrain. However, air-filled tires can easily become flat, which will require you to change them out. If you plan to travel with your stroller frequently, we recommend that you select one with solid wheels. They can be able to withstand contact with various surfaces more frequently and last longer.

Strollers with swivel wheels on the front are perfect to safely navigate escalators and stairs. Falls on stairs or escalators are the most common stroller-related injuries. They are especially 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 securely strapped in the seat. Also keep them close to you as you walk up or down.

Some strollers are an integrated travel system that incorporates both the car seat and the stroller. These types of products are usually more expensive and convenient than their separate counterparts and they may not be as effective in the long run. In addition many parents regret buying a bundled product as it may not come with all the features they desire, or it could prove to not be compatible with their car or child seat. We recommend you choose an infant stroller that can be purchased separately from a capsule or car seat if you'd like to upgrade to a more advanced model in the near future.

Stroller Folding

The best lightweight 3 wheel stroller compact 3 wheel strollers fold easily and store. Some locks automatically lock into place when you open them. This feature is particularly useful for families that frequently use public transportation or take a car to go on a walk.

Three-wheel strollers are designed to maneuver through tight spaces such as grocery store aisles and other crowded areas with ease. A lot of them are equipped with suspension systems to provide an easier ride. This is particularly useful on sidewalks that are bumpy.

The Guava Roam is a light stroller for jogging. The stroller is elegant and can be used as a part of a travel system, with adapters for car seats to fit Nuna, MaxiCosi, Cybex, and Nuna infant carseats, and the Uppababy Bassinet. (Car seats and stroller boards sold separately). The stroller folds in two steps and locks into position once opened.

Another nice-looking 3-wheel jogging stroller is the Babyzen Yoyo 2. It's more expensive than our top picks, however it's worth the cost if you love to travel or reside in the city. This lightweight stroller folds down to a compact size (20.5 x 17.3 Wheel Stroller x 7.1) and features padding, a detachable, five-point no-rethread harness and an ample basket. It can be used as a stroller suitable for infants and toddlers, if you have an infant car seat adapter.

Although the Babyzen comes with some nice features, such as an ample recline and additional storage, certain parents have been dissatisfied with its performance. The seat doesn't lie flat when it is reclining and there's no cupholders or snack trays for kids. The brakes are difficult to engage, and the handlebar height is too high for many mothers who are short.

The Graco Fastaction is another stroller that's designed to be as light as possible without sacrificing comfort or ease of use. It has a long list of amazing features like a huge basket and a single-handed fold. The only drawback is that the brakes may be a bit difficult to engage and don't stay locked when the stroller is folded.

Stroller Safety

The safety features of a stroller should ensure that your child is safe using it. The top-scoring strollers we've reviewed come with a five-point safety harness that has adjustable and padded straps for the crotch. This allows for a custom fit. Some strollers come with a cushioned cushion that protects your child's head if they roll off or fall out of their seat. Some strollers come with safety brakes that lock two wheels, which is particularly important for strollers that run jogging as it stops them from flipping over when they're going up or down escalators or stairs where they can be especially risky for children.

In our tests, we evaluated the strollers' maneuverability in three different ways: a stroller's ability to rotate and bounce over bumps and dips, its ease of maneuvering when loaded with children and its capacity to maneuver over rough surfaces. We also assessed how easy it was to open and close the safety harness, fold and unfold the stroller, adjust its backrest the height of the handlebar and brakes, and attach and remove car seats (if applicable).

We found that strollers with 3 wheel twin stroller wheels were more maneuverable, but the advantage diminished as baby weight increased. This is why we suggest choosing one with a hand brake that allows you to slow down and stop without as much exertion than using your body alone. However, the majority of best-scoring swivel wheel strollers don't offer this feature, and only one of our top fixed-wheel models comes with it.

It is also important to consider the frequency you'll have to utilize your stroller to go up or down escalators or stairs, and if it is safe to do it. Elevators and stairs are more hazardous because they have moving mechanical parts which make it difficult to control your stroller. If you're able to, we recommend using an elevator or having another adult assist you in carrying the stroller. Some of the top-scoring strollers can be taken up a set or stairs with the safety brake engaged. It's always better to be safe rather than regretting.
