Best All Terrain Stroller

If you like to go for an exercise, hike on rocky trails or stroll through grassy parks then an all terrain stroller is the best choice. You'll want large, durable tires with suspension that are able to cope with the rough off terrain stroller.

All terrain strollers help you to instill an early love of nature in your child. We look at ease of use and maneuverability. This includes the ability to access the basket, engage the brakes, and then insert and remove an infant seat (where it is needed).

The Best Overall Stroller

If you plan to use a stroller to carry your child for many years it must do more than just get them from A to B. Strollers multiply just like rabbits, and having one that can take on all your family's excursions is an excellent investment.

Nuna MIXX Next is a multi terrain pram-purpose stroller which can do everything. It's easy to store, folds compactly and is able to glide smoothly over sidewalks as well as cobblestones, grass, and. The lightweight PIPA Urbn car seat is also available in part of a set for a complete travel solution. The price is more expensive than our other picks but our testers said it was worth the cost because it's durable and can handle even the most challenging excursions.

Three-wheelers are a great choice for a lightweight stroller that can still handle some more rough terrain. The Thule Shine is an excellent choice, and we called it the previous winner in this category. It's a little more expensive than our other choices however, it's a solid choice and has plenty of options (car seat compatibility! dual cup holders!) This makes it a great purchase. It can also be folded to fit in the overhead bin of an airplane which makes it a great choice for families that frequently travel.

Senior Review Editor Wendy Schmitz has been reviewing strollers and other baby gear for over two years. She along with our product testing team test each stroller by running, pushing forward, folding and lifting them to evaluate their performance, comfort and functionality. All of them are mothers and are aware of the importance of having a reliable stroller for everyday use as well as family outings. This year, we expanded our test pool to include five stroller and parenting experts: Lisa Trofe, executive director of the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association; Kyleyn Gosewisch, customer care specialist at strolleria, a retailer that focuses on strollers; Marielle Marquez, a pediatric occupational therapy; Holly Choi, cofounder and co-owner of Safe Beginnings First Aid, an organization that offers child safety resources as well as Sarah Huff, senior manager of community and customer service at BabyQuip, the stroller and baby equipment rental company.

The BOB Sport Utility

The BOB Sport Utility is the ideal stroller for parents who want to get away from the main roads and get some exercise. The jogging stroller has pneumatic knobby tires that are great for trail runs, and hand brakes that let you control the downhills. It also features a state-of the-art suspension system and a two-step folding design, and an enormous cargo basket. It can also be used with an infant car seat by purchasing the right adapters.

The biggest drawback of this jogging stroller is its weight and size when folded. It weighs 25 lbs and folds down to 17,850 cubic inches, which is about average for this category of strollers. Its large footprint makes it unsuitable for tight turns or narrow trunk spaces, though it has a handle near the rear of the basket that you can pull to collapse it into a compact, flat position.

Despite its bulk, this stroller is easy to navigate. The front wheel comes with a locking mechanism which allows you to switch between locked and normal mode. The handlebar can be adjusted to accommodate different heights for parents. It also comes with a wide seat that can recline almost flat, and it also has an enormous vinyl peek-aboo window that is easy to open and close.

Another plus is the Sport Utility's outstanding quality, which earned it a 9 of 10 in this metric. It has a thick frame made of aluminum, with tight connections, smooth edges and no sloppy stitching. It also has adjustable dampers, that help in the smoothness of the rolling.

Like the other BOB strollers in this review, the Sport Utility has optional car seat adapters that let you use it with various infant car seats. It took us 5:24 minutes during our tests to assemble the stroller from unpacking it until it was ready to go. The assembly was easy, but you will require a Philips screwdriver. The instruction manual included is clear and well-organized, but it's still a good idea to have one in your case.

The Baby Trend Expedition

This jogger is made with safety, style and user-friendliness as its primary goals. It has a tray for parents that has two cup holders as well as covered storage, and the child tray which can be swung away and has two cup holders. The adjustable canopy, with its peek-a-boo windows and an extra-wide ergonomically-shaped handle, provide comfort for both parents. The lockable front wheel can be unlocked when strolling and locked for running. The large storage basket is ideal for storing essential travel items.

Consumer Reports' Strollers test program confirms that the Baby Trend Expedition Jogger is an excellent value for its cost and is better than its competition across various categories. This includes ease of using the 5-point harness, folding and unfolding, adjusting the backrest, engaging the wheel brakes and removing the infant car seat and installation (only for compatible models). It's designed to have an easy recline with one hand, that is sufficient for sleep. The canopy cover that has an adjustable ratcheting isn't easy to use. It takes around 8 minutes to put it in place. The instructions are confusing, with several languages mixed up and confusing drawings.

The only drawback to this stroller is that it does not have a suspension system, so the ride could be more bumpy than some of the other all-terrain buggy strollers we've tested. This can make it more uncomfortable for young kids, especially when they're on edge of taking having a nap. It does have air-filled tires, but they don't have as much shock absorption as the rubber wheels you find on more expensive strollers.

This is a great choice for those who don't intend to run frequently but would like to walk over grass and gravel with ease and without any problems with curbs, or other obstacles. It's also a great choice for families with limited space as it folds into a compact size. It is lighter than many of the other strollers we've tested, and will fit into places where full-size strollers cannot.

Another benefit is that it is more easy to carry and lift than the bulkier joggers we've tried. This is particularly important if you have to lift it in and out of the trunk of your car on a regular basis or if you're constantly moving.

The Nipper Sport V4

If you're looking for the best jogger that can handle all terrains, then look no further than the Nipper Sport V4. The latest version of Out 'n' About's three-wheeled jogging stroller is designed specifically for jogging, and comes with big 16'' pneumatic alloy tyres that can handle even the toughest paths and tracks. The Nipper is also light and compact, making it easy to fold and carry.

This pushchair comes with a handlebar and front suspension, making it ideal for all terrains. It comes with a removable quilted liner and multi-position recline as well as a padded 5-point safety harness and a hinged bar. It also works with travel systems, meaning you can use it with the Cybex Maxi-Cosi or BeSafe baby car seat.

The buggy also has a large front wheel that ensures a smooth ride for the child. This is particularly crucial when it comes to tackling terrain that is difficult as it enables the buggy to follow better and glide better over bumps and dips. In addition to this the Nipper Sport is also very easy to drive. The handlebar features an ergonomic design and a single pedal easy-lock brake with adjustable steering. The buggy folds effortlessly, thanks to clear instructions and pictures provided in the user's manual.

The Nipper Sport is designed for children aged from 6 to months. It can also be used by a baby due to the integrated insert. However, it's not recommended for use with infants younger than six months, because the harness of the seat isn't strong enough to ensure their safety.

The pushchair is also without a storage basket underneath the seat. The small shopping bag that is located at the back of the seat isn't large enough to hold a large changing pouch. It is extremely easy to open and close, using only two hands needed to release the plastic catches on the opposite side of the lower frame. The red handlebar has another lock that can be released with just one hand.
