3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheel buggy is great for off-roading and provides a smooth ride for your infant. They can also be easier to push and maneuver than a four-wheeler, especially those with fabric slings or modular seat units that are positioned snugly in the frame, offering the best ergonomics and weight distribution.

Stability

A three-wheeler has great stability, which is why it's a good choice for off road walking (especially with an all-terrain or off-road-style seat). These buggys often have oversized front tires that can handle bumps, kerbs, and rough terrain. Some even have a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It's important to remember that 3-wheel buggies have lower centers of gravity than 4-wheeled versions, which could mean they can topple over more readily. The most reliable 3 wheel infant stroller-wheeled pushchairs are made with the best geometry to ensure they remain stable in any condition. They should be able turn at a whim and be able to be controlled with one hand. They also have the ability to rotate 360o on the front wheel which makes them perfect for navigating difficult terrain.

For extremely difficult surfaces be sure to choose an air-filled model which are also referred to as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to work on non-paved tracks and should cope with mud, gravel, rock etc. Many all-terrain buggies come with a swivelling wheel on the front that can be locked for added stability when tackling very rough terrain.

A 3-wheeler is a good option for runners or for those who like to walk quickly and uphill, particularly if you're planning to attach a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a world-facing seat that reclines flat. It also comes with a new 5-point harness as well as storage space for all your equipment (plus an extension of 50+ sun hood). It's light compact and safe to use from birth. It can be used with a car seat or a carrycot. It can also be used for light jogging, but is not intended for serious runners.

Weight

If you are seeking a buggy that can tackle terrain that is difficult, you should choose one with big tires. These are made to handle cobbles, grass and dirt tracks easily while providing smooth riding. They're also good for jogging since they're equipped with suspension and are easy to move up and down kerbs. However, the best 3 wheel stroller downside is that they can be quite heavy to push.

The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the most suitable 3 wheel buggy to use on rough terrain (pictured above). This 3-wheeler has 16 rear wheels, and an swivel wheel lockable to the front which makes it very maneuverable. It has air-filled tyres that require pumping up every now and then. It can accommodate children as young as the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler loved the shape of the seat, and she was able to steer it easily with her 3 wheel running buggy (Click at postheaven.net)-year-old in the seat.

The Baby Jogger Versa GT is an alternative that is also a great choice. It comes with a movable handlebar, a top-quality hood that provides 50+ UV protection as well as a high quality hood. It's also simple to get up and down kerbs, and it can fit in small car boots. It can also be used as a pram that comes with an infant car seat for newborns and toddlers.

Fabric slings are set inside the frame and not on top as modular seats. This design has a lower centre-of-gravity at the right height. It is much easier to push, and lighter to kerb pop (you don't know how many times you'll do this as a new parent!).

Seating

The seating capacity of 3 wheelers is impressive and there are many different choices to choose from. The carrycot that comes with it is ideal for a baby (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a comfortable and cosy lie-flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy). Older infants and toddlers will appreciate the spacious and comfortable seat with adjustable ventilation. The seats do not recline fully, but they can be adjusted to the lowest point. This should allow your child to have plenty of headroom and space.

A fabric sling is also available. It has the advantage that it is positioned inside the frame, instead of being placed on top 3 wheel strollers of it as a modular seat. This means that it has a lower centre of gravity, with a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially on bumpy terrain or over curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this kind of seat dealt with challenges.

In addition to a large shopping basket, this kind of buggy typically has some very useful features like an extended 50+ UV hood, an easy to use brake pedal, and some bright, game-changing lights that come up from the handlebar and can be positioned directly in front of the occupants to increase their safety when they are tackling difficult terrain.

If you're looking for a single buggy that can expand with your family, there's the brand-new sport(tm) that is the first of its kind to take one baby from the moment of birth and adjust to take 2 or even 3 after your baby has grown in the space of a single buggy.

Storage

The 3-wheeled model is more stable and can be pushed with just one hand. It's also ideal for terrains that are difficult to navigate. However, it also means that the shopping basket doesn't hold the same amount as a 4-wheeled buggy.

A high-quality ATP will come with a great suspension, pneumatic tyres, and padding for the handle to ensure your comfort. It will be able to accept a carrycot or car seat, so you can use it from the time of birth.

MFM's reviewers found that the 3 wheeler buggy-wheeler frames couldn't pass through their doors at home or car boot. If you're worried about space, be sure you check the dimensions of the buggy once it is folded prior to purchasing.

It's worth looking for a 3-wheeler that can take two (or even 3!) seats as your family grows. They are the most efficient of both and future proof your money. The iCandy strawberry sport is among the top of them and can be used as a single unit from day dot and later converts to a twin buggies when your baby starts walking.

Tyres

These tires cushion bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's ride more comfortable. They are commonly used on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted’s Sport which MFM reviewer Kath said was "an exceptional ride for her toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tyres on the Phil & Ted's Sport made it easy for her to maneuver around the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

These tyres can be difficult to maintain and will require having their air pressure regularly topped up. These tyres are more prone to punctures, and you should always have a repair kit as well as an spare inner tube with you when you're out and out and about.

PU tyres are more commonly used on pushchairs because they are less expensive than air-filled tyres but are just as durable. You can recognise PU tyres by their matte appearance and soft, smooth feel. They also slide easily on even and tied surfaces.

You can usually discern the difference between PU and air-filled tire by running your fingers over each one, if it feels hard then it's rubber and when it slides, it's a PU. You can also confirm that your buggy is fitted with PU tyres simply by sliding the tyres onto flat, clean surfaces They'll roll easily and should fit comfortably in their wheel hubs.

Foam tyres are typically used in high-performance buggies as well as joggers since they are able to cope with the rough terrain common to this type of pushchair. The downside of this is that the foam could shrink and make your buggy feel less stable because it loses its springy feel. The tyres can also be noisy, as they make lots of noise when you turn or drive around town.
