3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheeled buggy is ideal for off-road terrain and offers a smooth ride for baby. They are also simpler to push and maneuver than a four-wheeler and are especially suitable for those with fabric slings or modular seat units that are tightly positioned in the frame and deliver the most efficient design and weight distribution.

Stability

A three-wheel buggy has excellent stability, which is the reason it's a good option for off-road walks (especially with an all terrain or off-road style seat unit). They usually have large front wheels, which cope well with bumps and kerbs as well as rough terrain. Some have a lockable wheels on the front to provide additional stability while driving on uneven terrain.

It's important to keep in mind that 3 wheel stroller with seat-wheel buggies can have a lower centre of gravity than models with four wheels, which can mean that they topple over more easily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry to ensure they remain steady in any weather. They should be able of turning on a dime and be easy to steer with one hand, and feature a 360o swivelling front wheel which makes them ideal for manoeuvring and navigating difficult terrain.

For really tricky surfaces be sure to choose an air-filled model, also known as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to handle non-paved tracks and should cope with dirt, gravel, etc. Many all-terrain buggies come with a swivelling wheel on the front which can be locked for added stability when tackling very rough terrain.

A 3-wheeler is an ideal option for runners or those who like to walk quickly and uphill, especially if you're planning to attach an infant car seat or carrycot.

Weight

They're also good for jogging as they come with suspension and are simple to climb and descend kerbs. The downside is that they are quite heavy to push.

The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the best 3 wheel buggy for use on rough terrain (pictured above). This 3 wheel double pushchair-wheeler is highly mobile due to its 16 rear wheels as well as an adjustable front wheel that locks. It comes with tyres filled with air that require pumping regularly. It can carry children until the age of three. 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.

It's also easy to move up and down kerbs 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 frame of the buggie rather than sitting on top of it as modular seats. This design provides a lower center of gravity at the perfect height, instantly making it easier to push and lighter to pop the kerb (you cannot think about the amount of times you'll have to do this as a new parent!)

Seating

There are a myriad of options for seating in three wheelers. The carrycot included is ideal for a baby (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a comfy and cozy lay-flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy). Older infants and toddlers will enjoy the spacious and padded seat unit that has adjustable ventilation. The seats are not able to recline completely, but can be lowered to the lowest position. This should allow your child plenty of space and headroom.

A fabric sling is also available. It's a benefit that it is placed inside the frame instead of being placed on top of it as a modular seat. This results in a lower centre of gravity and a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this style of seat handled obstacles.

This kind of buggy comes with an extensive basket and other useful features such as an hood that can be extended with 50+ UV protection, a simple to use brake pedal and a few innovative lights for visibility that can be placed in front of occupants for improved safety on difficult terrain.

A high-quality ATP will come with pneumatic tyres, a cushioned grip for added comfort, and a superb suspension. It should be able to accept a carrycot or car seat, so you can use it from birth.

MFM's reviewers found 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 check out the best 3 wheel stroller dimensions when the buggy is folded before purchasing.

Tyres

Air filled tyres have been designed to give your child more comfort while riding by cushioning bumps and uneven surfaces. They are commonly included on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted's Sport that MFM reviewer Kath said was "an outstanding ride for her toddler". She also said that its grippy tyres made it easier to handle cobbles and kerbs.

These tyres can be difficult to maintain and will require air pressure topped up regularly. They are also more prone to punctures than foam tyres, so it is essential that you have repair kits along with a spare inner tube and pump in case you go you're out and about in your buggy.

PU tyres can be used on pushchairs because they are less expensive than air-filled tyres but are equally durable. PU tyres are easily identified by their matte finish and soft feel. They also glide well on uneven and tied surfaces.

If you rub your hands over the tyres, you can tell if they're PU or rubber. If it feels as if it's moving, then it's a rubber tyre, which is a. You can also test whether your buggy is equipped with PU tyres, by sliding them onto a flat, clean surface. They should roll smoothly and fit snugly into the wheel hubs.

This can make your buggy less stable since the foam loses its springy quality. These tyres are also noisy due to the fact that they create a lot noise when you turn or drive around the town.
