3 Wheeler Buggies A three-wheeler is ideal for off-roading providing an easy ride for your child. They can also be easier to maneuver and push than a four-wheel buggy especially if they have fabric sling seats or modular seat units that are placed snugly within the frame, providing the best ergonomics and weight distribution. Stability A three-wheeled buggy offers excellent stability, which is why it's an ideal option for off-road walks (especially with an all-terrain or off-road style seat). These types of buggys typically have large front tires that can handle bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some have a lockable wheel in the front to give you additional stability when driving on uneven terrain. It is important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies have lower center of gravity than their 4-wheeled counterparts and, therefore, can topple over more readily. That said, the best 3-wheel pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry and engineering to make them very solid in all conditions. They should be able to turn at a single click and be able to steer using just one hand, and feature 360o swivelling front wheels which makes them perfect for maneuvering and navigating difficult terrain. Find models with pneumatic tyres. These are made to handle nonpaved tracks, and are able to withstand dirt, gravel, rocks, etc. Many all-terrain buggies feature an adjustable front wheel that can be locked to increase stability when working on extremely rough terrain. A three-wheeled stroller is a great option for those who run or love to speed up the hill. This is particularly true if you are planning to attach to a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a wide-facing seat that reclines flat and 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 lightweight, compact and suitable from birth and can be used in conjunction with the use of a car seat or carrycot. It can also handle some light jogging, but isn't designed for serious joggers. Weight If you're looking for a buggy that can tackle terrain that is difficult, you should choose one with large tires. They will be able to handle cobbles, grass and dirt tracks while providing a smooth ride for any passenger. These are also great for jogging, as they come with built-in suspension and are easy enough to climb up and down kerbs. However, the downside is that they can be quite heavy to push. The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the best 3 wheel buggy for use on rough terrain (pictured above). The 3-wheel buggy comes with 16 rear wheels, and an swivel wheel lockable to the front, so it's very manoeuvrable. It has air tyres, which do need occasional pumping and can hold children up to the age of 3. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the shape of the seat and was able to steer it easily with her 3 year old on board. Another great option is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, which has an adjustable handlebar and a high-quality hood with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move kerbs up and down, and can fit into small car boot. It can also be used as a pram that comes with an infant car seat for infants and toddlers. Fabric sling seats are tucked inside the buggie's frame, as opposed to on top of it like modular seats. This style has a lower centre of gravity at the perfect height. It is simpler to push, and is lighter to kerb-pop (you don't know how many times you will do that as a brand new parent!). Seating The capacity for seating of 3 wheelers is quite impressive, and there are a number of different options to pick from. For newborns, there is the option to use the included carrycot and (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cosy and comfortable lie flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy) and older infants and toddlers can sit in the parent or world-facing seat unit that is roomy and padded, and comes with adjustable ventilation. The seats are not able to fully recline, but they can be adjusted to the lowest setting. This should still allow your child to have plenty of room and headroom. A sling made of fabric is also available. It has the advantage that it is located inside the frame, rather than on top as a modular seat. This results in a lower centre of gravity and a perfect weight distribution. This makes it much easier and lighter to push especially when you're on bumpy terrain or curbs. MFM reviewer Kath was impressed with the way that this style of seat dealt with these obstacles. In addition to a big shopping basket, this kind of buggy generally has very useful features like an extended 50+ UV hood, a simple brake pedal, and a few game-changing visibility lights that appear from the handlebars and can be placed in front of the occupants to increase their safety when traversing difficult terrain. Alternatively, if you are seeking a single stroller that will grow with your family There's the new sport™ that is the first in the world to take a single infant from the moment of birth and adjust to take 2 or even 3 once your little ones have developed in the space of a single buggy. Storage The 3-wheeled frame makes the buggy much more sturdy to push one-handed and is also ideal for handling rough terrain. The shopping basket is smaller than a 4-wheeler. A top-quality ATP will have a top suspension, pneumatic tyres as well as a padded handle to ensure your convenience. It should be able to accommodate a carrycot or a car seat, which means you can use it from the time of birth. MFM's reviewers found that the 3-wheeler frames didn't fit through their home doors or car boot. If you're concerned about space, make sure you check the dimensions of the buggy once it is folded before purchasing. It's worth looking for a 3-wheeler that can take two (or even 3!) seats when your family grows. They are the best of both worlds and future proof your money. 3 wheel pushchair is among the most popular. It can be used from day dot as a single buggy and then converted into twin buggies once your baby begins walking. Tyres Air filled tyres are made to give your child an easier ride by cushioning out bumps and uneven surfaces. They are commonly found on pushchairs like the Phil and Ted's Sport, which MFM reviewer Kath said provided “an outstanding ride for her toddler”. She also noted that its grippy tyres made it easy to navigate cobbles and kerbs. These tyres are sometimes difficult to maintain and will require having their air pressure topped up regularly. They are also more vulnerable to punctures than foam tyres so you'll need to ensure that you have a repair kit, spare inner tube and pump on hand when you are out and about with your buggy. PU tyres are typically found on pushchairs as they are less expensive than tyres filled with air, but they are just as durable. You can recognise PU tyres by their matte appearance and soft feel. They also slide easily on uneven and tied surfaces. It's usually possible to tell the difference between air-filled and PU tires by running your hands over them, if it feels firm, then it's rubber and when it slides, it's a PU. You can also check that your buggy is fitted with PU tyres by slipping the tyres on a clean, flat surface They'll roll easily and should fit snugly into their wheel hubs. Foam tyres can withstand the rough terrain that comes with high-performance buggies. This can make your buggy less stable because the foam will lose its springy feel. The tyres can also be noisy, as they make lots of noise when you turn or drive around town.
