Design
When you think of a pushchair, pram or buggy, it's safe say that most people will immediately think of 4-wheel models. This could be due to the fact that they feature a more stable design and typically come with a bigger shopping basket. However, there are also three-wheel models that provide just as much stability with an easier to maneuver.
The main benefit of a 3 wheel pushchair is their ability turn quickly and negotiate tight corners. This extra maneuverability is provided due to the close proximity of the front and rear wheels. They are a great choice for situations in which you will be navigating obstacles like high kerbs and tree roots. Some 3-wheeled pushchairs have a locking feature that locks the front wheel in place when you're in a smoother terrain.
Most travel systems consist of the pushchair that can be snagged onto a Group 0+ (suitable for babies from birth) car seat. It's as simple as that! can easily transfer your baby from the car to the pushchair, and back. This is a great option when you're going to be walking and driving with your baby often.
There are even 3-wheel pushchairs that act more like 4-wheelers, with small 'dummy' wheels positioned on the front of the frame. This provides stability, and adds some weight. However, the triangular design still allows for plenty manoeuvrability. These are popular among parents who wish to take their pushchairs out on rough surfaces or on bumpy city streets.
Wheels

The orange pushchair features large wide, deep and deep shopping basket. It's the perfect place to store your essentials. It's a surprisingly easy pushchair to move around and has an automatic lock that holds it in place when you fold it down. It's not the biggest fold with L:84 x D62 x D29, but it's still relatively compact for a 3 or four wheel pushchair. The iCandy comes with a self-standing frame, meaning you don't have to lift or hold the handlebar.
In addition to a world-facing seat, there are car seat adaptors included in the box that can turn it into a travel system with the infant carrier of your choice. It's also compatible with the UPPAbaby carrycot, and can be used with all infant carriers, so it's ideal for parents who want to get up and go.
Its handles are set at a height tall enough for most parents to reach comfortably. We'd like to see a little more of an adjustment in the position of the handlebar for parents who are shorter can enjoy a comfortable push also. The foam handlebar does feel somewhat cheap and plasticky however, which might be a little unsettling for some buyers. It's a cheap pushchair however, so it's worth a look if you require a four- or three-wheeler that can handle all terrains.
Storage
There are plenty of storage options for you and your child to enjoy on your travels. There's a big, deep basket under the chassis with a great capacity that can hold all of your shopping and other items. There's also a handy zip pocket on the hood of the pushchair to store your raincover and a cosy footmuff as well.
Converting this easy-to-use pushchair into the ideal travel system is effortless. The clever design of the iCandy allows you to click the car or carrycot into the adaptor sockets already on the folding hub.
The Ride-on Board is a great option for older siblings. It's a neat addition to the basket. They'll love climbing onto the board to be closer to their sibling while you're out. If they're on a higher side, the handle has an adjustable height between the 98-108cm range.
All of the iCandy BAGILEs come with the option of adding an infant car seat or carrycot, making them ideal twin pushchairs that excel at tandem travel. They fold up easily and store, and they can be tucked away in most car boot spaces. There aren't any hooks to hang your bag on the handles of the pushchair, but it's not a major complaint.
