3 Wheeled Buggies

A 3-wheel buggy can be used for off-road walks and for tackling terrain such as uneven paths or tracks in woodlands. They are also more easy to manoeuvre up and down kerbs than models with four wheels.

MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these 3-wheelers with her newborn and 3 year old, and put it through its paces on the tarmac and on tricky ground. You can read her full review here.

Stability

With four wheels and a centre of gravity that's balanced by the weight of your child in the seat, 4-wheel buggies are generally thought to be more stable than three-wheelers. But that doesn't mean a three-wheel buggy isn't worth considering, since some of them are built to withstand anything from rough terrain to bustling high-streets.

Choose a buggy that has large rear wheels, as well as a lockable wheel on the front. This will make it easier to drive and less likely to snap apart on rough roads. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires, which are ideal for handling unpaved surfaces. They can be used even on sandy beaches or tracks through woodlands.

They are also the best buggies for running with, since they provide great stability over rougher ground and can help you keep up with your running partner. They are also great for going up and down steep kerbs, and most of them have a built-in suspension that ensures your child will have a pleasant ride.

A stroller with 3 wheels isn't easy to maneuver because of its large frame. It can be more difficult to maneuver through doorways and narrow spaces than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have addressed this issue by using an innovative design that flips the wheels upwards when they are not being used. This reduces their size and makes it easier to fit through doorways.

You'll also have to think about whether the buggy you choose to use is suitable for your little one from birth, or if you're thinking of using it with an infant car seat or carry cot. Make sure that the buggy has a lie-flat feature and if it's compatible with second seat and buggy boards, if you are planning to bring your toddler along. A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat and can be upright when folded and is handy if you have an insufficient car boot or a small storage space at home. Some 3-wheelers require you to remove the front wheel in order to fold them into smaller sizes.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled buggies can be more maneuverable than four-wheeled strollers. A lot of them feature a swivelling wheels on the front, which allows you to control and change direction with one hand. Some models also come with a lockable front wheels which gives you security on more difficult terrain. Some models can be used with an additional buggy or seat, in case you want to expand your family.

If you plan to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the roads that are asphalted it is recommended to choose one that has pneumatic tyres. They are able to handle the most difficult terrain. They will require pumping up occasionally but will be much more durable than tyres that are solid and more likely to be puncture-proof. Find a model with a a lockable swivelling front wheel to help you ne go tiate tricky surfaces.

A single front wheel may also indicate that three-wheelers can be heavier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Be sure that the model you select can fit in the boot of your car and can be positioned upright if needed. Certain models can be folded by one hand, and they can be raised when folded. This can save space in a small car boot.

A quality 3 wheel pushchair is able to cope with all terrains, from busy streets to tracks through woodlands. It's important to consider what you'll be using it for every day. If you'll be doing the school run, it ought to be able to handle steep slopes and kerbs. If you plan to jog on it, ensure it has a swiveling'stretch front wheel' that can be locked. This will keep the ride in place.


MFM reviewer Kath found her tri-wheeled buggy to be able to perform well with the countryside and urban walks. Kath noted that it was able to negotiate cobbles, rough paths and uneven pavements easily and felt pleasant when jogging. It's also a great choice for day trips, since it offers plenty of storage space, including a huge, spacious basket with zip-top cover and an expandable 50+ UV hood. It can be adapted to meet the needs of a baby from birth, including a carry cot or lie-flat seat. It's also compatible with the most popular second-seats and stroller boards.

Fabric Sling Seat

The primary difference between a fabric seat and a modular one is the fabric sling. It is a part of the frame of the buggy rather than being positioned on top like the modular chair. This allows for a more ergonomically appropriate posture for the baby and instantly provides an lower centre of gravity and a more appropriate height. This results in a smoother push, a more light curb-pop (you do not have to exert as much effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and increased stability and balance.

These buggy seats also feature sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. Made specifically for the use of sling chairs in mind, these fabrics are incredibly UV-resistant and air-tight. They also have excellent durability and are easy to clean using water and soap.

3-wheel buggies are more stable than 4-wheel strollers, making them ideal for off-road and all terrain adventures. The large, extremely maneuverable front wheel allows for a quick and smooth movement, whilst the tyres are typically filled with air and have suspension, allowing for a smooth ride on the roughest of roads and trails. They're also great for walking up hills as the wheels aren't as close to the ground as they are on 4 wheel pushchairs.

Often 3-wheel prams are favourite for parents who enjoy running and jogging with their children as they offer great agility and are more streamlined than their 4 wheel counterparts.
