3 Wheeler Buggies A three-wheeled buggy is perfect for off-road terrain and offers the most comfortable ride for infants. They are also easier to push and manoeuvre than a four-wheel buggy, particularly those with fabric slings or seat units that are tightly positioned in the frame to provide the most efficient shape and weight distribution. Stability Three-wheeled buggys are extremely stable, making them a great choice for off-road walking (especially when they are equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). They typically have large front tires that can handle bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some even feature a lockable front tire for extra stability on uneven terrain. It's important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies can have a lower center of gravity than models with four wheels and this can mean that they topple over more easily. However, the most reliable 3-wheel buggies have the an ideal geometry and design to make them very stable in all weather conditions. They should be able of turning on a dime and be easy to steer with just one hand, and have a 360o swivelling front wheel which makes them perfect for manoeuvring and navigating difficult terrain. Look for models with pneumatic tyres. These are designed to be able to navigate tracks that aren't paved and should be able to take on rocks, mud, gravel, etc. Many all-terrain buggies come with an swivelling wheel at the front which can be locked for added stability when tackling very rough terrain. A 3-wheeled pram is a great option for runners and those who love to speed up the hill. This is especially true if you plan to attach a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It features a flat-reclining seat with 5-point harness and plenty of storage space to keep everything you need (plus a 50+ extendable sun hood). It's lightweight and compact, and is suitable to use from birth. It can be used with a car seat or a carrycot. It can also be used for light jogging however, it isn't designed for serious runners. Weight If you're looking for a vehicle that will take on tricky terrain, then you'll need one with big wheels. These are designed to handle cobbles, grass and dirt tracks easily, while still providing a smooth ride. These are also great for jogging, as they have built-in suspension and are able to climb up and down kerbs. However, they're a bit heavy to push. The most suitable 3 wheel buggy for rough terrain is the Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 (pictured above). This 3-wheel buggy is very maneuverable due to its 16 rear wheels and the front wheel can be locked. It comes with tyres filled with air which require pumping regularly. It can accommodate children until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the seat shape and she was able to steer it easily with her three-year-old in the seat. The Baby Jogger Versa GT is another great option. It comes with a movable handlebar, a top-quality hood that offers 50+ UV protection and a high-quality hood. 3 wheeler pushchair is also easy to move up and down kerbs, and can fit into small car boot. It can be used as a stroller and a carrycot for newborns or toddlers. Fabric slings are positioned inside the frame, not on top like modular seats. This style has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the right height. It is much easier to push and is lighter to kerb-pop (you cannot underestimate how many times you will do that as a brand new parent!). Seating The seating capacity of 3 wheelers is quite impressive and there are a variety of different options to pick from. For newborns it is possible to use the included carrycot plus (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a comfortable and cozy lying flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy), while older babies and toddlers can be seated in the parent-facing or world-facing seat that is spacious and cushioned and has adjustable ventilation. It's worth noting that the seats do not recline completely, but they can be adjusted to the lowest setting which should still give your child plenty of headroom and room to move around. A fabric sling seat is also available, which is placed snugly within the frame, rather than on top like an open-back seat. This provides a lower center 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 kind of seat dealt with the obstacles. This kind of buggy comes with an extensive basket and other features that are useful such as an extended hood with 50+ UV protection, a simple to use brake pedal, and a few innovative lights for visibility that can be positioned on the front of the passengers for improved safety on difficult terrain. If you're seeking a buggy that can grow with your family The sport™ is a first in the world, can accommodate infants and be modified to fit three or more children as they grow. All within a single footprint. Stores The 3-wheeled frame 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 top-quality ATP will come with pneumatic tyres with a padded grip for comfort and excellent suspension. It will be able to accommodate a car seat, so you can use it from the time of birth. The MFM reviewers noted that the 3-wheeler frame didn't pass through their doors at home or car boot. If you're concerned about space, make sure to verify the dimensions when the buggy 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 can help you to save money in the future. The iCandy strawberry sport is among the most popular and can be used as a single seat from day dot and then converts to twin buggies when your baby begins walking. Tyres Air filled tyres are made to give your child more comfort while riding by cushioning bumps and uneven surfaces. You'll find these on pushchairs like the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath discovered to provide “an amazing ride for my toddler”. She also mentioned that the grippy tyres on the Phil & Ted's Sport made it simple for her to maneuver around kerbs and other obstacles. These tyres can be difficult to maintain and require air pressure regularly topped up. These tyres are more prone to punctures, and it is recommended to always carry a repair kit as well as an spare inner tube with you when you're out and out and about. PU tyres can be used on pushchairs since they are a cheaper option than air-filled tyres, but they are equally robust. You can tell PU tyres by their matte appearance and soft feel. They also glide well on smooth and tightly woven surfaces. If you move your hand over the tyres you can tell if they're rubber or PU. If it feels like it is sliding then it's a rubber or PU. You can also confirm that your buggy has PU tyres simply by sliding the tyres on flat, clean surfaces They'll roll easily and fit snugly in their wheel hubs. Foam tyres can withstand the rough terrain associated with high-performance buggies. This could make your buggy less stable because the foam will lose its springy quality. These tyres are also noisy due to the fact that they create lots of noise when you turn and drive around the town.
