3 Wheel Buggies

3 wheel buggies offer excellent maneuverability with a stylish and streamlined frame. Many of these feature a fabric sling seat with a cosy lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution that is ideal from birth.

The wheels are larger and often come with suspensions to allow for smooth, fluid moving on different terrains. The only downside is that they may be heavier and bulkier to store and transport.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are remarkably stable - they don't tip over as easily as pushchairs that have four wheels when they're in a straight line. Also, you'll find that you can maneuver them more quickly and easily. If you turn or stop abruptly, they can lose their stability and fall over. This is why some manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3 wheel travel stroller wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.

You can also conquer off-road terrain with the extra wheel. Look for models with air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that are able to take on off-road paths, sand and mud, and other surfaces, such as sand and rock. These models will also have a lockable wheel in the front to improve the stability of the vehicle over rough terrain.

The buggies are easy to maneuver and agile, thanks to a 360o front swivel wheel. They'll also pass the same rigorous stability standards and tests as 4-wheel buggies.

If you're looking for a fabric sling seat, they are typically placed lower in the frame than modular seats, so that your baby's center of gravity is closer to the floor and provides a more comfortable ride and less kerb pop (you don't have to exert as much pressure or effort to lift the buggy up and over the Kerb).

Most well-known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a light pushchair and travel system to its line-up with the eye-catching Citylife. The 3-in-1 model was designed for urban living and is suitable from birth with a newborn car seat or carrycot for infants. It has four wheels and an exclusive pewter black aluminium frame, which the brand claims is 'light and compact'. It's only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are a lot of three wheel buggies that can be folded in a compact way to can be tucked away in smaller spaces. They can be folded with one hand and are easy to wipe down. Some of the smaller models come with a simple handlebar height adjustment, while others feature adjustable suspensions and an ultraviolet canopy of 50+ that can be extended. Some models may have an enormous basket as well as a brake lever that's quick-release.

A 3-wheeled model is typically better equipped to deal with off-road conditions as in comparison to a model with four wheels however both can be a bit stuck on tight corners. But, picking a model that has larger wheels both front and back will help. This allows them to push over uneven ground and will often help with getting up and down high kerbs.

One option is the brand new Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its responsive handling despite its three-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath tested it with her baby and reported that "it was very well-handled on cobbles, bumpy surfaces, dirt roads, gravel tracks and a few hills."

Another great alternative is the newest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from car seat brand Maxi-Cosi, called Stella. It's suitable from birth when used with the carrycot and is a little bigger than the lightweight 4wheelers (with an impressively slim frame of 54cm wide) but it comes with big air-filled tyres, three recline positions, and a swift one-hand fold.

Its primary selling point is its modularity, though - it's compatible with all of the brands' infant car seats and strollers. This means you can build your ideal travel system for your day-to-day or longer walks, using just the chassis as a base.

Tyres

The tyres for cheap 3 wheel buggy wheel buggies are offered in many styles and materials. Each comes with its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer an easy ride and excellent maneuverability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type of tyre you select will be determined by your lifestyle and the place you live.

For instance, if plan to travel often on rough or muddy terrain, you may want to consider an all-wheeler with more durable tyres. You should also consider the type of suspension you need. A strong suspension is ideal for handling bumps and humps, but it can be heavy and add to the overall weight of your pushchair.

Another crucial aspect to take into consideration is the tyre's size. Knowing how to read tyre sizing is crucial to ensure safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on the tyre's sidewall might be confusing until you get the hang of it, you'll be able to comprehend the tyre's dimensions. For example, a tyre size of "185/70 R14 indicates that the tire is a 185/70 radius with 14 inches of rim diameter.

PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you're unsure whether the tires on a pushchair are rubber or PU tires, try sliding the tires on a smooth and tied surface. If the tires slide easily they are made of PU. If they do not, then the tires are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an important aspect to consider as it absorbs the smacks and bumps of rough terrain making it much more comfortable for your child. Large wheels that are air-filled, and that can be locked to provide stability when jogging are also essential. This will enable your buggy to travel on off-road surfaces easily.

There are many options for buggy designs to fit every budget and lifestyle. The Mountain Buggy, for example, pioneered all-terrain agility with three-wheel buggie. With an engineering and geometry that is perfect, their fabrics sling seat is tucked away within the frame, as opposed to being on top of modular seats, providing the lowest centre of gravity and sitting at the perfect height to ensure optimal weight distribution that allows it to easily handle the kerb pops.

Another great option is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that has a sleek design with a large, highly maneuverable front wheel, excellent suspension and an easy-to-use handbrake that twists. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy through its paces by walking through rough terrain. She was impressed with how it performed admirably and said that it "navigates over bumpy grass, sidewalks, cobbles and dirt tracks, and even makes it easy to drive up and down kerbs".

The Roma Atlas is another popular off road option and like the Urban Glide 2, comes with a variety of colours to suit your style. It also comes with an adjustable handlebar, a large basket, and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also choose from a variety of infant car seats to convert the buggy into a pram, including the elegantly designed carrycot plus(tm) which is a comfy lie-flat bed for newborns and babies that are up to 12 months old.

Safety

Four wheels make a buggy more stable, less likely for it to tip over and easier to maneuver. It also makes it more secure for your child as their weight is distributed more evenly across the frame of the pushchair.

A four-wheeled vehicle has a lower center of gravity, making it easier to pop over curbs and climb up. The seat made of fabric is within the frame, not on top of it like modular seats do, which results in a lower seating position and a lighter buggy that can be easily maneuvered.

If you want to run with your child, an all-wheeler is the best option. It has an suspension system that allows the front wheel of the buggie to move independently from the rear wheel. This allows you to take on rough terrain or bumpy roads. However it is not the case that all four wheel buggies are able to be used for running. Mountain Buggies are the exception, as they have a suspension system specifically designed for them that's been tested independently across all kinds of terrain.
