3 Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies look stylish and sleek, with great maneuverability. Many of these have an upholstered sling that has an incredibly comfortable lay flat bed that is perfect for weight distribution and are suitable from birth.

The wheels are larger and usually come with suspensions to allow for smooth, swift mobility on various terrains. The only downside to these wheels is that they tend to be bulkier and heavier to transport and store.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are very stable and don't tip over as easily as pushchairs that have four wheels when going in a straight line, and you'll notice that you can move them more quickly and effortlessly. If you stop or turn abruptly, they could lose stability and even tip over. To avoid this, certain manufacturers add an extra wheel to their best 3 wheel stroller wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.

The extra wheel also helps you to tackle off-road terrain. Look out for models with air-filled tyres (also known as pneumatic tyres) as they are able to deal with off-road routes and other surfaces like sand, mud and rock. These models will also have wheels that lock on the front, which will increase stability on rough terrain.

Buggies are easy to maneuver and agile thanks to the 360o front swivel wheel. They will also pass the same stability standards worldwide and tests as buggies with four wheels.

If you're looking for a seat made of fabric they are typically lower in the frame compared to modular seats. This means that your baby's centre of gravity will be closer to the ground, instantly ensuring the smoothest ride.

Maxi-Cosi is a household name for its car seat range however, it has recently expanded its product line with the Citylife lightweight travel system and pushchair. This 3-in-1 is ideal for urban living and comes with a newborn car seat or carrycot. It has four wheels and uses an exclusive black pewter frame, which the company claims is 'slim and compact' - it's actually only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There's a wide selection of 3 wheel buggies that fold compactly to fit into smaller space. They can be folded with one hand and are easy to wash down. The smallest models will have a simple height adjustment for the handlebar, whereas others may have an adjustable suspension or an extendable 50+ UV canopy. Certain models may come with a large basket and brake levers that are quick-release.

The most reliable 3 wheel infant stroller wheel buggy for tackling rough terrain

A 3-wheeled vehicle is generally better equipped to deal with off-road conditions as when compared to a four-wheeled model however both may get stuck in tight corners. A model with larger rear and front wheels can aid. This will make it easier to push them across rough terrain, and can assist you in climbing up and down high curbs.

The new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its surprising agility despite its three-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath tried it out with her infant and reported that "it did really well on cobbles, bumpy surfaces, gravel tracks, dirt roads and even a few hills."

Stella Stella, the brand new all-terrain 3 wheel buggy for sale (maps.Google.cv)-wheel buggy from Maxi-Cosi is another great option. It can be used from birth when used with a carrycot. It is slightly larger than the lightweight 4-wheelers, however, it comes with air-filled tires with three recline positions and an easy fold with one hand.

Its primary selling point is its modularity. It's compatible with all of the brands' infant strollers and car seats. You can build your own travel system, regardless of whether you want to go on an easy stroll or take a longer stroll, by using the chassis.

Tyres

The tyres for 3 wheel buggies come in a variety of styles and materials. Each one has its own pros and cons. Air-filled tyres, for example provide a smooth ride and great maneuverability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type you select will depend on your lifestyle and where you live.

If you intend to travel on unpaved roads or on rough terrain frequently you may want to consider a three-wheeler equipped with more robust tyres. Also, you should consider the type of suspension you need. Strong suspension is useful to handle bumps and humps, however it can be heavy and increase the overall weight of your pushchair.

The size of the tyre is also important. Understanding the tyre size is important for safety, performance and longevity. The combination of numbers and letters on the tyre's sidewall might appear confusing until you get the hang of it, you'll be able to comprehend the tyre's dimensions. A tyre that has an 185/70 size R14, for example indicates that it is a radial tire with a diameter of the 185/70 size with 14-inch rim size.

PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you're unsure whether the tires on a pushchair are rubber or PU tires, you can test sliding the tires on a smooth surface and tie them. If the tires slide smoothly they are made of PU. If not, they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three wheel buggy makes it more comfortable for your child since it absorbs any knocks or bumps that occur from rough terrain. Large wheels that are air-filled, and can be locked to ensure stability while jogging are important. This will enable your buggy to navigate off-road surfaces effortlessly.

Depending on the type of buggy you're looking for, there are options that will fit all lifestyles and budgets. The Mountain Buggy, for example, pioneered all-terrain agility with three-wheel buggie. With perfect geometry and engineering their sling seat made of fabric sits snug inside the frame, in contrast to sitting on top like modular seats, offering the lowest centre of gravity and sitting at the right height for optimal weight distribution, allowing it to easily take on kerb pops.

Another option worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that boasts a sleek style with a massive, manoeuvrable front wheel, a great suspension and an easy-to-use twist handbrake. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy through its tests by going for a ride on rough terrain. She found that it performed admirably and claimed that it "navigates over grass, bumpy cobbles, sidewalks, and dirt tracks, and allows you to easily go up and down kerbs".

The Roma Atlas is another popular off-road model and, similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes with a variety of colours to suit your style. It also comes with an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket, and a 50+ UV hood. You can also choose from a selection of infant car seats that convert the buggy into a pram, such as the chicly designed carrycot plus(tm) which is a comfy lie-flat crib for babies and infants up to 12 months old.

Safety

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

A four-wheel buggy also tends to have a lower center of gravity, making it more easy to roll over curbs and up the stairs. The fabric sling seat sits inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats. This makes for a low-slung seating position, and a lighter buggy that is easily maneuverable.

However, if you'd like to go out for a run with your baby then a four-wheeler is more suitable as it will have suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the rear one so you can tackle bumpy roads and rough terrain - just bear in mind not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most are NOT like the Phil and Teds). Mountain Buggies are the exception since they feature a suspension system specifically designed for them that's been tested by an independent expert across all terrains.
