3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheeler is ideal for off-roading, offering a smooth ride for your child. They can also be easier to move and push than a four-wheeler, especially those with fabric sling seats or seat units that are placed snugly in the frame, offering the best ergonomics and weight distribution.

Stability

A three wheeler pushchair-wheel buggy has excellent stability, which is why it's an ideal choice for off road walking (especially with an all-terrain or off-road style seat). They often feature oversized front wheels that can deal well with kerbs and bumps as well as rough terrain. Some models even have a lockable front wheel for extra stability on uneven terrain.

It is important to remember that 3-wheel buggies can have a lower centre of gravity than models with four wheels which means that they fall over more easily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect design to ensure they stay stable in any condition. They must be able to pivot at a whim and be able to steer with one hand and have 360o swivelling front wheels which makes them ideal for maneuvering and navigating difficult terrain.

Look for models that have pneumatic tyres. These are designed to handle nonpaved tracks, and should be able to handle dirt, gravel, rocks, etc. A majority of all-terrain buggies come with an adjustable front wheel that can be locked to provide stability when dealing with extremely rough ground too.

A 3-wheeler is an ideal option for runners or those who prefer to walk quickly and uphill, especially if you're planning to attach an infant car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a wide-facing seat that can recline flat and features a more comfortable 5-point harness and storage space for all your gear (plus an extendable 50+ sun hood). It's lightweight, compact, and suitable for use starting at birth. It can be used in conjunction with the car seat or carrycot. It can also be used for jogging with a light pace, but it's not designed for serious runners.

Weight

If you're looking for a buggy that can handle the tough terrain then you want one with large wheels. These will cope well over grass, cobbles, and dirt tracks and provide a smooth ride for all passengers. They're also good for jogging since they're equipped with suspension and are easy to climb and descend kerbs. However, the drawback is that they are quite heavy to push.

The most suitable 3 wheel buggy for rough terrain is the Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 (pictured above). This 3 wheeled strollers-wheel buggy is very maneuverable because it has 16 rear wheels and an adjustable front wheel that locks. It has air-filled tyres which require pumping up every now and then. It can be used by children up until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the seat shape and she found steering it easy even with her three-year-old in the seat.

Another great option is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, that comes with an adjustable handlebar as well as a hood that is of high-quality with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move kerbs up and down, and can fit into the car's boot space in a small size. It can be used as a stroller with a carrycot for newborns or toddlers.

Fabric sling seats are tucked inside the buggie's frame rather than over it like modular seats. This design delivers a lower center of gravity and a perfect height, making it easier to push and lighter to pop the kerb (you can never overestimate the amount of times you'll have to do this as a new parent!)

Seating

The capacity for 3 wheelers is impressive, and there are a number of different choices to choose from. For a newborn it is possible to use the carrycot (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cozy and comfortable lying flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy) In addition, older babies and toddlers can be seated in the world-facing or parent facing seat unit that is roomy and cushioned and has adjustable ventilation. It's worth noting that the seats aren't fully reclined, but they can be adjusted to the lowest position which should still give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around.

A sling made of fabric is also available. It has the advantage that it is located inside the frame instead of on top as a seat that is modular. This results in a lower centre of gravity with perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier and lighter to push especially over bumpy terrain or curbs and MFM reviewer Kath was impressed with the way this kind of seat handled these obstacles.

This kind of buggy comes with a large basket and other beneficial features like an hood that can be extended with 50+ UV protection, a simple to use brake pedal, and some innovative visibility lights that can be positioned in front of the occupants for improved safety on difficult terrain.

If you're looking for a buggy that will grow along with your family it's the sport(tm) is a first in the world, can accommodate infants and be adapted to accommodate three or more children as they grow. All within a single footprint.

Stores

The 3-wheeled frame makes a buggy much more stable to push one handed, and it's also great for handling rough terrain. However, it does mean that the shopping basket doesn't hold the same amount as a 4-wheeled buggy.

A high-quality ATP will have a top suspension, pneumatic tyres, and an ergonomic handle that is cushioned to ensure your comfort. It should be able to accommodate a carrycot or a car seat, meaning you can use it from birth.

MFM's reviewers have noticed that the 3-wheeler frame can't fit through all the doors of their homes or small car boot - be sure to check the dimensions of the buggy once it's folded before purchasing for those who are concerned about space.

It's worth looking for a 3-wheeler that can take two (or even 3!) seats once your family grows. These are the best of both worlds and can help you to save money in the future. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is one of the most popular. It can be used from day dot as a single buggy, and later transformed into twin buggies after your baby is walking.

Tyres

These tyres absorb bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's journey more comfortable. They're commonly found on pushchairs like the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath discovered to provide "an outstanding ride for my toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tyres of the Phil & Ted's Sport made it easier for her to maneuver around the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

These tyres can sometimes prove difficult to maintain and must be filled regularly. These tyres are more prone to punctures, which is why you should always have an repair kit and spare inner tube when you're out and out and about.

PU tyres can be found on more pushchairs than air-filled tyres, but they're just as durable. PU tires are easily distinguished by their matte finish and supple feel. They also slide easily on smooth and tightly woven surfaces.

You can usually identify the difference between PU and air-filled tyres by running your hand over each one. If it feels hard then it's rubber and when it slides, it's a PU. You can also verify that your buggy has PU tyres by sliding the tyres on an even, clean surface They'll roll easily and should fit snugly in their wheel hubs.

Foam tyres are typically used in high-performance buggies and joggers since they are able to cope with the rough terrain associated with this type of pushchair. This could make your buggy less stable since the foam will lose its springy feel. Also, these types of tyres can frequently be noisy, as they create a lot of noise as you turn and make your way around the town.
