Design
When you think of a pram, a pushchair or buggy, it's safe think that most people immediately think of four-wheel models. This could be due to the fact that they sport an easier to maneuver design and typically come with a bigger shopping basket. There are also three-wheel options that offer the same stability but with a more movable shape.
One of the advantages of a 3-wheel pushchair is their ability to turn quickly and negotiate tight corners. The close proximity of the front pair of wheels allows for this extra maneuverability, and they're a great option for situations where you'll have to negotiate obstacles such as high kerbs or tree roots. Certain 3-wheeled pushchairs feature the option of locking the front wheel in place while you're in a smoother terrain.
Most travel systems consist of a pushchair which can be snagged onto a Group 0+ (suitable for babies as young as) car seat. This means you'll be able to transfer your baby from the car to the pushchair and back again without disruption - it's as easy as that! This is great if you are going to be walking and driving with your baby a lot.
Some 3-wheeled pushchairs can be made to look like 4-wheelers by adding small 'dummy wheels' in the front. This gives stability and weight, however the triangular shape allows for plenty of maneuverability. These are popular with parents who want to take their pushchairs on rough surfaces or on bumpy city streets.
Wheels

The handles are fixed at a height where most parents can comfortably reach them. We'd like to see more variety in the position of the handlebars, so that parents with shorter arms could also get a comfortable push. Some buyers might consider the handlebar made of foam to be to be a bit flimsy and cheap. It's a cheap pushchair however, so it's worth looking into if require a four or three-wheeler that can cope with all terrains.
Storage

There's a big deep basket underneath the chassis with a large capacity to hold all of your shopping and other bits.
