3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheel buggy is great for off-roading, offering the most comfortable ride for your child. They can also be easier to move and push than a four-wheel buggy particularly those with fabric sling seats or seat units that are positioned snugly within the frame, providing the best geometry and weight distribution.

Stability

A three-wheeler has great stability, which is why it is a great choice for off road walking (especially with an all terrain or off-road style seat). They typically have larger front wheels, which can cope well with bumps and kerbs as well as rough terrain. Some models even have a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It is important to remember that 3 wheel travel stroller-wheel buggies can have a lower center of gravity than 4-wheeled models and this can mean that they topple over more easily. The most reliable 3 wheel twin stroller-wheeled pushchairs are made with the best design to ensure they stay stable in any condition. They must be able to pivot on a dime and be easy to steer with one hand, and have a 360o swivelling front wheel which makes them perfect for maneuvering and navigating difficult terrain.

For really tricky surfaces be sure to choose models with air-filled tyres also known as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to handle roads that are not paved and can deal with dirt, gravel, and more. Many all-terrain buggies feature a swivelling front wheel that can be locked to increase stability when tackling extremely rough terrain too.

A 3-wheel pram is also a good option for runners and those who like to walk quickly and uphill, particularly when you plan to attach a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It has a flat-reclining seat with 5-point harness and plenty of storage space to keep everything you need (plus the ability to extend 50+ of the sun hood). It's compact, lightweight and suitable for infants and can be used with a carrycot or car seat. It also handles a bit of moderate jogging, but it's not designed for serious joggers.

Weight

If you're looking for a buggy that will take on tricky terrain, then you'll need one with big wheels. These will cope well over cobbles, grass and dirt tracks, while providing the smoothest ride for any passenger. They're also ideal for jogging since they're equipped with suspension and are simple to get up and down kerbs. The downside is that they're quite heavy to push.

The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the most suitable 3 wheel buggy for use on rough terrain (pictured above). This 3 wheel stroller brands-wheeler is highly mobile due to its 16 rear wheels and an adjustable front wheel that locks. It comes with tyres filled with air that need to be pumped regularly. It can accommodate children until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the shape of the seat and found it easy to drive with her three-year-old in the seat.

The Baby Jogger Versa GT is an alternative that is also a great choice. It has an adjustable handlebar, a high-quality hood that offers 50+ UV protection and an extremely high-quality hood. It is also easy to move kerbs up and down and fits into a the boot of a car that is small. It can also be used as a pram with an infant car seat for infants and toddlers.

Fabric slings are set inside the frame and not on top of the frame like modular seats. This design provides an lower centre of gravity that is at the ideal height, making it easier to push and lighter to pop the kerb (you should never think about the amount of times you'll have to do that as new parents!)

Seating

There are a myriad of options for seating in three wheelers. For babies you have the option to use the carrycot (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cosy and comfortable lying flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy) and older infants and toddlers can be seated in the world-facing or parent facing seat unit that is roomy and cushioned and has adjustable ventilation. The seats do not recline fully, but they can be lowered to the lowest point. This should allow your child plenty of room and headroom.

A fabric sling seat is also available. It offers the advantage of being set snugly inside the frame rather than sitting on top as the modular seat. This delivers a much lower centre of gravity as well as a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this type of seat handled obstacles.

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

If you're searching for a stroller that will grow with your family it's the sport(tm) is a world first, can accommodate a newborn and then be modified to accommodate three or four children as they grow, all within a single footprint.

Stores

The 3-wheeled frame is much more stable and can be pushed with just one hand. It's also better for difficult terrain. The shopping basket is smaller than a 4-wheeler.

A good quality ATP will have a top suspension, pneumatic tyres and padding for the handle to ensure your convenience. It is also able to take car seats and a carrycot and you can use it right from birth.

MFM's reviewers found that the 3-wheeler frames didn't fit through their home doors or car boot. If you're worried about space, make sure to check out the dimensions of the buggy when it is folded before buying.

Choose a 3-wheeler with 2 (or 3!) seats. seats when your family grows. These are the most efficient of both and future proof your money. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is one of the most popular. It can be used from the day of birth as a single buggie and then converted into twin 3 wheel stroller buggies when your baby starts to walk.

Tyres

These tires cushion bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's journey more comfortable. They're commonly found on pushchairs such as the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath found to offer "an amazing ride for my toddler". She also said that the grippy tires of the Phil & Ted's Sport made it easy for her to negotiate the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

These tyres are sometimes difficult to maintain and need to have their air pressure regularly topped up. They are also more vulnerable to punctures than foam tyres, so you'll need to ensure that you have repair kits with spare tubes and a pump handy when traveling with your buggy.

PU tyres are found on more pushchairs than air-filled tyres but they're just as robust. PU tyres are easily identified by their matte finish and supple feel. They also slide across flat and tidied surfaces.

It's usually possible to tell the difference between PU and air-filled tyres by running your hand over each one, if it feels hard then it's made of rubber, if it slides then it's a PU. You can also determine whether your buggy comes with PU tyres, by sliding them across a flat, clean surface. They should roll easily and fit snugly into 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 that's associated with this kind of pushchair. This can make your buggy less stable since the foam will lose its springy quality. Also, these tyres may frequently be noisy, as they generate a lot of noise as you turn and make your way through the town.
