Folding is easy
If you're planning on taking your buggy on the road often, it's worth opting for a three-wheeler that's easy to fold. This will save time when you have to load the buggy into and out of a car, or into a small space, like an aisle in a grocery store.
Some brands market the fact that their pushchairs can be folded quickly and easily. This is an important selling point, especially in the event that you are using your buggy to hop on and off public transportation or in and out of your car regularly.
For a quick and easy folding system, there are a variety of options to pick from. Many lightweight buggies have a simple pull mechanism that enables you to quickly and effortlessly fold the frame. The renowned Priam stroller, which took home silver in the MFM lightweight buggie review in 2014, is one of these. The Baby Jogger City Mini has a patented quick fold system that allows it to be folded in just five seconds with just one hand.
Choosing an easy-to-fold pushchair is also important if you plan to use it for walking in urban environments or with a child's car seat or carry cot. If you need your buggy to be stable enough to traverse uneven ground or to bump up and down curbs, then a four-wheeler is best. They are generally more sturdy and less likely to topple over than three-wheelers.
If you are planning on driving your buggy through rural areas or on unpaved tracks, look for models with tyres filled with air (sometimes called pneumatic) because they can be more able to handle rough terrain than wheels that have been moulded.

Some models have a range features that can help you adapt your stroller to various terrains.

Easy to clean
As most parents are aware the price of a pushchair is typically expensive, so it is essential to keep it looking good and working well. Cleaning it on a regular basis is the best way to do this. A thorough clean-up with soapy water warm and warm will remove most marks and dirt, but it's also recommended to employ a brush and hose pipe (on the lowest setting) to reach the corners and places that aren't accessible to your pram/stroller. It's worth doing this outside on a dry day, tipping it upside down as much as possible to ensure that you get into the wheels and mechanisms, where dirt often collects.
If you're worried about staining, try a solution of vinegar and water or bicarbonate of soda on a cloth. Both can remove staining that is difficult to remove and neutralize the smells. Regularly wiping down the surface with warm water will also stop mould from growing that is not only unsightly, but unhygienic to let toddlers and babies sit on.
The manual is among the best ways to maintain the condition of your pushchair and clean. The manual will provide useful information on how to put together and deconstruct your buggy and will also provide information about the materials. It will also tell you how often the hood and fabric sections are to be washed (everyone recommends at least twice a week) and that it is a good idea to examine the pressure of the tyres on a regular basis (typically specified in the manual).
As most pushchairs are used frequently, the metal chassis and moving parts could be subjected to a lot of wear and tear over the course of time. If left unattended, this could result in loose nuts and bolts or even rust. It's recommended to check your pushchair regularly for signs of wear. If you notice any issues, make sure you contact the manufacturer as soon as possible. This will not only help keep your pushchair in good condition, but it will also avoid any potential security issues that may result from defective equipment.
Easy to transport
A 3 wheeler pushchair is much more maneuverable than a four-wheel model. This is especially true if the rear wheels are big and designed to handle rough terrain. They're usually able to negotiate kerbs and bumps more quickly, so you can move it up and down and around town with ease. All-terrain pushchairs are perfect for those who reside in rural areas or take their infant or toddler on frequent walks on rough terrain. They're great for strolls in the woods and tackling tricky ground, with many of them capable of attaching to your car seat or infant carrier to provide an all-in-one solution.
All-terrain pushchairs have large, puncture resistant tyres, which are specifically designed to handle uneven and bumpy surfaces. However, a lot of them still come with a decent suspension to help you navigate difficult areas and ensure that the ride is as comfortable as it can be for your child. They can also be quite heavy so they can be difficult to lift when folded, especially when you're using them for a child in the seat and you have lots of shopping bags.
Another thing to think about is the basket size of the pushchair with 3 wheels you're thinking about. Some have smaller shopping baskets than their four-wheel counterparts. If you plan to do lots of shopping or have a child who is growing, you may need a larger stroller that can accommodate your needs.
