3 Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies are stylish and sleek, and have great maneuverability. Many of them come with an upholstered sling that has a cosy lay flat bed that is perfect for weight distribution and are ideal from birth.

The wheels are larger and often have suspension to allow for smooth, fluid mobility on various terrains. The only drawback to these wheels is that they can be more bulky and heavy to transport and store.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are very solid - they don't fall over as easily as four-wheeled pushchairs when they're in a straight line. Also, you'll be able to manoeuvre them much more quickly and effortlessly. If you attempt to turn or stop suddenly, they'll lose stability and could tip over. This is why certain manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3 wheel travel system wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.

You can also conquer off-road terrain with the extra wheel. Look for models with air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that are able to take on off-road routes, sand and mud, and other surfaces like sand and rock. These models will also feature a lockable wheel on the front, which will increase stability over rough terrain.

With the right design, engineering, and weight distribution, these buggies can turn at a moment's notice and are easy to steer using just one hand; have 360o front swivel wheels allowing agility and mobility to be effortless and easy to handle. They'll also pass the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as the 4-wheel buggies.

If you're looking for a cloth sling, then they are typically placed lower in the frame than modular seats, so that your baby's center of gravity is closer to the floor - instantly delivering a smoother ride and less kerb pop (you don't need to apply the same amount of pressure or effort to lift the buggy up and over the curb).

Popular for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a light travel system and pushchair to its line-up with the eye-catching Citylife. The 3-in-1 model was designed for urban living and can be used starting at birth with a newborn car seat or carrycot for infants. It has 4 wheels and uses an exclusive pewter black aluminium frame, which the company claims is 'slim and compact'. It's actually only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are a variety of three wheel buggies that can be folded down to can be tucked away in smaller spaces. They can be folded with one hand and are easy to wipe down. Some of the smaller models have a simple handlebar-height adjustment, while others feature adjustable suspensions and a 50+ UV canopy that can be extended. Some models could have large baskets and brake levers that are quick-release.

A 3-wheeled vehicle is generally better equipped to deal with off-road conditions as compared to a 4-wheeled model however both may get stuck in tight corners. However, choosing a model with bigger wheels on both sides can be beneficial. This allows you to push them over rough terrain and can help you get up and down steep curbs.

The new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its astonishing ability to move despite its three-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath used it with her baby and 3-year-old son and reported that "it is very well-handled over bumpy pavements, cobbles dirt roads and gravel tracks as well as on some hills."

Stella Stella, the all-terrain 3-wheel buggy by Maxi-Cosi is another great option. It's suitable for babies when used in conjunction with the carrycot. It's smaller than the light 4wheelers (with an impressively slim frame of 54cm wide) but has big, air-filled tyres, 3 recline positions, and a quick one-hand fold.

Its primary selling point is its modularity. It's compatible with all of the brands' infant strollers and car seats. You can design your own travel system, no matter if you're looking to go for a shorter walk or a longer one using the chassis.

Tyres

The tyres of 3 wheel buggies are available in a variety of styles and materials, and each comes with its pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer a great performance and maneuverability, whereas foam-filled tyres last longer. The type of tyre you choose will be determined by your lifestyle and where you reside.

For instance, if intend to frequently travel on rough or muddy terrain, you may be interested in a 3-wheeler with sturdier tyres. You should also consider the type of suspension you need. A strong suspension is ideal for handling bumps and humps, but it can be heavy and contribute to the overall weight of your pushchair.

The size of the tyre is crucial. Understanding how to determine the sizing of a tyre is essential for ensuring safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on a tyre's sidewall may be confusing at first, but decoding it helps you understand the dimensions of the tyre. A tyre with an 185/70 size R14, for example, means that it is a radial tire that has a size of 185/70 with a 14-inch rim diameter.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are also lighter and more puncture resistant than rubber ones. If you are unsure if a pushchair's tires are rubber or PU, slide the tires across a smooth surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made of PU. If they don't then the tires are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three wheel buggy makes it more comfortable for your child since it will absorb any bumps or knocks from rough terrain. Large wheels which are filled with air and lockable to ensure stability while jogging is essential to ensure that your buggy will be capable of maneuvering off roads with ease.

Based on the type of buggie you're seeking There are a variety of options to suit all lifestyles and budgets. For example the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility in a 3-wheel buggies. Their sling seats made of fabrics are designed with the perfect geometry and engineering to fit perfectly inside the frame rather than on top, like modular seats. This creates a lower center of gravity and allows it to be placed at the right height to distribute weight evenly to tackle kerbs.

The Urban Glide 2 by Thule is another great option. It features a sleek design, a huge wheel that's easy to maneuver and is paired with an impressive suspension. It also comes with a twist handbrake for ease of use. MFM reviewer Kath took this buggy to the test by taking it for a walk through rough ground and she was impressed with how it adapted to the terrain well, stating that it 'flies easily over grass, bumpy cobbles, roads, dirt tracks and even makes a light work of going up and down kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas is another popular off-road model and, similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes in a variety of colors to match your style. It also has an adjustable handlebar, a large basket and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also select from a range of infant car seats that convert the buggy to pram. This includes the elegantly designed Carrycot Plus(tm), which is a comfortable lie-flat baby bed suitable for infants and newborns until 12 months old.

Safety

The presence of four wheels makes the pushchair much more stable, less likely to tip and easier to handle. It also makes it safer for your child as the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame.

A four-wheel buggy also tends to have a lower centre of gravity, making it easier to lift over curbs and up the stairs. The fabric sling seats are positioned inside the frame and not on top as modular seats. This creates a low seat and an automobile that is easily pushed.

However, if you'd like to go for an exercise with your child then a 4-wheeler might be better suited since it comes with suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the rear one which allows you to navigate bumpy roads and rough terrain be aware that not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most aren't, such as the Phil and Teds). The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially-designed suspension system that has been independently tested on all types of terrain.
