Many are suitable for babies and come with seats that can be positioned flat or a newborn carrycot. These vehicles also come with tyres which never flatten, usually comprised from foam.

Suspension

For additional security Certain all-terrain pushchairs have a handbrake that is lockable, which is much easier to reach and utilize with your hands instead of a traditional brake pedal to the side of the handlebars. This is a fantastic feature to have if you want to tackle steep hills, especially with a child in the seat and lots of shopping bags stashed beneath!

If you don't want to go quite as extreme as an all-terrain pushchair, there are plenty of strollers available that offer excellent - but not perfect - off-road capability, with excellent suspension and big wheels. These are typically more affordable than the more expensive all terrain buggy options however they are perfect for excursions to the park with your dog or short country walks.

A lot of these pushchairs are suitable from birth, either with a carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. Be aware that the seats do not be able to lie flat when you push over bumps or dips. According to EU regulations, they only need to meet minimum standards of reclined angles of approximately 150deg. Some brands, including Graco have gotten around this problem with their new "comfitech" in-seat suspension that allows the seat to recline at a slightly more flatter angle for a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP All-Terrain Pushchair, that can be used in conjunction with an appropriate Graco Infant Car Seat to create a three-in-one travel system.

All-terrain strollers feature air-filled tyres that are great for rough terrain. However they are more susceptible to punctures to punctures than the EVA tyres that are found on light city strollers. It's therefore worth purchasing a repair kit and spare inner tube to go with your pushchair. Some all-terrain models have foam tyres that are less susceptible to punctures but they're not as effective at taking in shock and could feel harder to push than tyres with air filled.

The new Bugaboo Fox 5 pushchair is a great example of a stroller that includes both foam and air filled tyres.

A hood that can be removed and cleaned with cool soapy water is another useful feature that can help keep mildew and mould from building up.

If you're planning on taking your all-terrain pushchair off-road it's a good idea to choose air-filled tyres rather than those with grips made of rubber. They will give you an easier ride on rough terrain and will make it easier to navigate through tight spaces. If you plan to use your all-terrain stroller for occasional jogging, be sure the front 3 wheel running stroller can swivel or features a quick release mechanism so it can be locked in place for more stability.
