They are equipped with special features that allow them to conquer any terrain from sandy and muddy paths to stony and uneven ground.

Easy to fold
If you plan to use your buggy often and need a three-wheeler that has easy folding wheels is a good option. This will make it easier when you have to carry the buggy into and out of a vehicle or into a tiny space, such as an aisle at a supermarket.
Certain brands make it a key selling point that their pushchairs are easy and easy to fold. This can be a huge selling point, especially in the event that you'll be using your buggy a lot to get on and off public transport or often in and out of the car.
If you are looking for a quick and simple folding system, there are many options to choose from. Many lightweight buggies have an innovative pull mechanism that is one-handed that allows you to quickly and easily fold the frame. The renowned Priam stroller, which was awarded silver at the MFM lightweight buggie review in 2014, is one of these. The Baby Jogger City Mini also boasts a patented quick-fold system that requires only one hand required and can fold flat in less than five seconds.
A foldable pushchair that is easy to fold is also important for those who plan to use it for walking in urban areas or with a child's car seat or carry cot. If you need your buggy to be stable to move over uneven ground or bump up and down curbs then a four-wheeler is best. They are generally more sturdy and less likely to fall over than three-wheelers.
If you intend to take your buggy out to rural areas or on tracks that aren't paved, select one with air-filled tyres. These will take on rough terrain better than moulded wheels. Some models have locks on the wheel at the front to provide extra stability on rough terrain. Try pushing the pushchair over different types of terrain at the store if you are uncertain of the kind of terrain you'll use for. Certain models have a variety of features that will help you adapt your stroller for different types of terrains. They include suspension and extra large puncture-resistant tyres as well as the capability to upgrade tyre sets to handle more difficult conditions.
Easy to clean
It is important to maintain the condition of a pushchair and keep it looking good. The best way to do this is to clean it regularly. A thorough clean-up with soapy water warm and warm will remove most marks and dirt, but it's also an excellent idea to employ a brush and pipe for a hose (on a low setting) to reach the corners and places that aren't accessible to your stroller or pram. You should do this on an unseasonably warm, dry day. It is best to flip the stroller upside down and then use a brush.
If you're worried about staining you can try a solution of water and vinegar or bicarbonate of soda on a cloth. Both of them can get rid of staining that is difficult to remove and neutralize odors. Regularly wiping down the surfaces with warm water can keep mould from developing, which is not only unsightly, but unhygienic to allow babies and toddlers sit on.
One of the best tips to keep your pushchair clean and in good working order is to go through the manual. The manual will provide useful information on how to assemble and deconstruct your buggy and also details on the materials. The manual will show you how to clean the fabric parts, hood and other parts of the buggy (everyone recommends washing them at least two times every two weeks) and also check the air pressure in the tyres regularly (normally indicated by the manual).
As most pushchairs are used frequently the chassis and moving parts are subject to a lot of wear and tear over time. If left unattended, this may result in loose bolts and nuts or even rust, so it's an ideal idea to examine your stroller regularly for signs of wear. Contact the manufacturer immediately if you spot any issues. This will ensure that your pushchair is operating properly and will prevent any safety issues.
Easy to transport
A pushchair with 3 wheels is much more maneuverable than a 4-wheel model. This is particularly true if the rear wheels are large and designed to deal with rough terrain. They're usually able to navigate bumps and kerbs more easily, which means you can maneuver it up and down and around town without difficulty. If you reside in a rural area or often take your child or toddler on walks on rough terrain or mud, then an all-terrain pushchair could be the best choice. They're great for strolls in the woods and tackling tricky ground and are capable of attaching to your car seat or infant carrier to provide an all-in-one solution.
Most pushchairs for all terrains have large, puncture-proof tires that are designed to be strong enough to cope with uneven and bumpy surfaces. A majority of them have excellent suspension to help you navigate difficult terrains and ensure a comfortable ride for your child. They can also be quite heavy so they can be difficult to fold, especially when you're using them for a child in the seat and have lots of shopping bags.
Consider the size of the basket on the 3 wheeler you're considering. Many have smaller shopping baskets than their 4 wheel counterparts. If you're going to be doing a lot of shopping, or if you have a growing baby or toddler, you may require a larger pushchair that can accommodate your changing needs.
