Strollers for triplets: model review and selection tips

For any parent, choosing the ideal stroller can be difficult, but finding the ideal one becomes an entirely different experience when you’re expecting triplets. While selecting a stroller for your three small children, take into account not only their comfort and safety but also how useful it will be in your day-to-day activities.

It can be difficult to know where to begin with the abundance of models available, each with their own special features. When choosing one, there are a number of crucial considerations to take into account, such as weight and size as well as folding mechanisms and convenience of use.

This guide will examine some of the top triplet strollers in more detail, emphasizing their salient characteristics and providing helpful advice to assist you in selecting the right stroller for your expanding family.

"Books" and "canes"

• each child has a wide seat, which allows you not to feel squeezed;
• like a single stroller, this one has a basket for necessary small items under each seat, so you don"t have to take extra bags or packages with you on a walk or to the store;
• the model is easy to fold and unfold, and when folded, it fits perfectly in a car or elevator, although you will have to put the children somewhere during this time;
• large rear wheels allow you to drive on any terrain without much shaking, and the ability to turn the front wheels allows you to make the control as accurate as possible;
• There is a cape above each seat that can protect the child from the rain.

Even though they are minimal, "books’" drawbacks are enough for some people. When the stroller is unfolded, it becomes extremely wide and is unable to fit through most doors. Therefore, if the mother goes for walks alone and the children are not yet able to walk, the transport becomes unfeasible. Furthermore, the product’s weight is significantly impacted negatively by its dimensions. The only position for children here is a lying position; sitting them down is not an option.

With the exception of the fact that kids sit instead of lying here, the "cane" and the "book" are extremely similar. With nearly the same benefits and drawbacks, this type is also regarded as appropriate for travel; however, because their wheels are typically a little smaller, the quality of the roads they travel on must be higher.

"Little train"

Babies don’t always have to be arranged side by side when strolling; some strollers are made to assume that babies should be arranged one after the other.

There is just one, but it’s a very big one: this model fits through any door because its width is the same as that of single-seat strollers.

But the length of such a design is a major flaw in and of itself, the source of all the other flaws that keep this model from being widely used:

• in an attempt to shorten the elongated body, the designers placed the babies too close to each other, so in winter, with a warm hope, they will interfere with each other;
• the large length practically deprives the design of stability during lateral rolling, and after all, children are unlikely to behave quietly, especially when there are three of them at once;
• the small size of each seat leads to the fact that a child can lie in it only for the first six months of his life, and then the triplets will have to be walked exclusively sitting;
• with such a stroller it is very problematic to enter the elevator – in the vast majority of cases it will not fit there.

Selecting a stroller model for triplets necessitates striking a balance between comfort, safety, and usability. Parents should concentrate on important features like maneuverability, weight, foldability, and seating arrangements because there are a lot of options available. We’ll go over the best strollers for triplets in this post and provide helpful advice to help parents choose the right one for their expanding family.

Transformer

Because they are so convenient, objects that can alter their form and function at the owner’s request have become more and more popular in recent years. Since stroller-transformers have been available on the market for a few years, manufacturers are attempting to keep up with the growing demand.

Purchasing one of these strollers has the following benefits:

• The place of each child has its own frame, they are united only by the corps, because the kids do not bother each other – they are protected from one another;
• The shape of the entire structure can change quite radically – you can arrange children with both a steam locomotive and a triangle, and in the second case, the third child is located, as it were, opposite the other two, but either lower or higher;
• such a stroller can be used literally from birth as a cradle, however, in the future it will be easy to transform it into a stroller for older offspring;
• the width of the transformer"s wheelbase is no different from that of single-seat strollers, so with the correct arrangement of the seats you can drive anywhere;
• if you need to place the stroller in a car or elevator, you just need to fold it so that it significantly decreases in size.

As is frequently the case, pursuing every option right away results in a final product that has a significant number of drawbacks:

• many people mistakenly consider the transformer to be a very compact stroller due to the small width of the wheels, however, in fact, increased cross-country ability is achieved precisely due to the transformation capabilities, while the dimensions of the unfolded stroller are still very large;
• individual seats due to the needs of transformation still turn out to be less spacious than the same "book" or "cane", therefore children will be able to lie down only in the first six months of life, and then you will have to transfer the stroller to walking mode;
• a compact transformer can be disassembled and then reassembled, but not folded, so it is worth thinking in advance about where to store such a block, so as not to spend too much time getting ready for each walk.

What criteria to pay attention to when buying?

The process of selecting a stroller type may seem straightforward, but in reality, parents frequently overlook one or more important considerations before making a purchase. It is important to reiterate the variables that affect the model selection because of this.

• The nature of children is one of the main components of a successful choice of a stroller. The more active the kids are, the more space they need for each, and the more reliably their isolation from each other should be, otherwise bruises cannot be avoided.
• If there is an elevator in the house, it is advisable to choose a stroller that can fit in it even when unfolded. According to this criterion, transformers are usually considered the most convenient, and “trains”, accordingly, almost never fit into the elevator. If there is no lift at all, you should choose the lightest stroller possible – for example, massive "books" are out of the question.
• The ability to walk children together always somewhat reduces the demands on strollers. If only one person will always walk, and this is a woman, then the stroller must be light and maneuverable, as well as stable – "canes" are in the lead here, but they are not very suitable for the first six months of life.

• Transporting a stroller in a car requires the model to be compact when folded, and "trains" usually do not have this quality. A transformer can be disassembled, however, this will take additional time, so "canes" and "books" look preferable.
• Even the season of birth of babies – and that matters when choosing a stroller. Transformers and "trains" have slightly reduced spaces, so a child dressed in winter clothes may feel cramped, and it is good if he does not interfere with his closest relatives. In the first six months, you can still place children in strollers of this type with comfort, but for those born in the spring or summer, this option is not suitable. The Book, on the contrary, not only provides enough space, but also reliably closes the children from precipitation.
• Finally, the possibility of subsequent resale can also play a role. For such plans, it is worth choosing a powerful, reliable stroller, but the transformer is not very good for this purpose, because a large number of rotary, unexpected details increases the risk of breakdown.

Examples of design

Troi strollers are not created very often because every family has three kids at once. Although the model rankings are updated frequently, it is not guaranteed that parents will have access to a large selection of these products. There are two models that are actually available in stores and are the most popular in our nation as of spring 2018.

• Peg-Perego Triplette – a typical “train” with a chassis width of only 77 cm, thanks to which it will be possible to pass through almost any door. The model is a stroller with three backrest positions, as a bonus there is a protective bumper with a cup holder. If necessary, a cradle can be installed on the frame, however, for obvious reasons, it is not included in the delivery set. The weight of the assembled stroller is 9.4 kg, together with children its weight will significantly exceed 20 kg. The cost of such a “train” in April 2018 is about 60 thousand rubles.

• BabyActive Trippy – a transformer, well suited for all-season walks, since the walls of each cradle are well insulated. The model is offered in a good variety of colors, all covers can be removed for washing. The seats are adjustable, the bumper can be removed, which increases the service life of the stroller up to three years of age.

However, since the chassis alone weighs nearly 14 kg, a woman should not use this stroller for independent walks. They charge between 60 and 65 thousand rubles on average for such a stroller.

Choosing the ideal stroller for triplets can significantly impact day-to-day activities. The secret is to concentrate on what best suits the unique requirements of your family, be it child comfort, ease of movement, or useful storage options.

There are numerous models available, and each has special features. Depending on your preferences and lifestyle, there are various designs to choose from, including tandem and side-by-side. It is important to take into account factors such as the width of the doorways you will be crossing, the kind of terrain you will be walking on, and how simple it is to fold up and carry the stroller.

With so many options, it’s important to take the time to investigate and test-drive various strollers in order to make a purchase that will support your daily routine and ensure your children’s safety and comfort on all of your outings.
