When choosing a stroller, it's essential to consider how much you'll be driving and traveling.
While today's multifunctional strollers allow you to detach the bassinet/carrier/sports seat with just one click, and possibly fold it up with another click, which sounds simple enough on paper, but is it really?
If you have to load and unload the car trunk daily, this long series of movements can become quite annoying over time, especially when you also need to keep an eye on the older child. Not to mention that storing the frame and its accessories separately takes up a lot of space.
Speaking of many components, you also need to store them somewhere. You'll only use the cradle and carrier for the first six months, and then what about storing them until the little sibling arrives? Nowadays, there are excellent car seats available for newborns, which can replace the need for a carrier.
Moreover, 3in1 strollers generally weigh over 10 kg, which you have to lift every day. It might not bother you in the first few weeks or months, but it can become burdensome and even affect your spine's health over time.
Perhaps you're choosing it because of the large wheels?
Large wheels take up a lot of space, and it's rarely justified to buy a stroller with large wheels. For everyday use, small wheels are perfectly adequate, except if you want to run with the stroller or if you often walk on forest trails with uneven terrain. In this case, it's worth considering a dedicated jogging stroller or thinking about whether you'll really continue this sport with your child, or if it's easier to carry your child in a baby carrier.
A good-quality stroller with small wheels is perfectly suitable for urban, gravel, cobblestone, or lighter dirt roads.
