3 wheeler buggies (from Trade Britanica)

A three-wheeler is ideal for rough terrain providing an easy ride for your baby. They are also easier to push and manoeuvre than a four-wheel buggy especially those equipped with slings made of fabric or modular seat units that are tightly positioned in the frame and provide the best shape and weight distribution.

Stability

A three wheel pushchairs-wheel buggy has excellent stability, which is the reason it's an ideal choice for off road walking (especially with an all-terrain or off-road style seat). They often feature oversized front wheels, which cope well with bumps and kerbs as well as rough ground. Some have a lockable wheels on the front for additional stability while driving on uneven terrain.

It is important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies have a lower center of gravity than their 4-wheeled counterparts, which could mean they are more likely to fall over. But, the top 3-wheel buggies have the perfect geometry and engineering to make them very stable in all conditions. They should be able turn at a whim and be easy to steer with one hand. They also feature an incline of 360o for the front wheel, which makes them ideal to navigate difficult terrain.

For extremely difficult surfaces you should look for models with air-filled tyres also known as pneumatic tyres. They are designed to handle roads that are not paved and can deal with rocks, mud, and so on. Many all-terrain buggies come with a swivelling wheel on the front that can be locked for added stability when tackling very rough terrain.

A three-wheeled stroller is a great choice for those who run and enjoy walking fast uphill. This is particularly true if you are planning to attach a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a wide-facing seat that reclines flat and comes with a new 5-point harness as well as storage space for all your kit (plus an extension of 50+ sun hood). It's light, compact, and suitable for use from birth. It can be used with a car seat or a carrycot. It also handles some moderate jogging, but it's not designed for serious joggers.

Weight

If you're seeking a buggy that can tackle terrain that is difficult, you should choose one with big tires. They can handle grass, cobbles, and dirt tracks while providing the smoothest ride for all passengers. These are also great for jogging, as they come with built-in suspension and are able to climb up and down kerbs. However, the drawback is that they can be quite heavy to push.

The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the best 3 wheel buggy to use on rough terrain (pictured above). The 3-wheel buggy is extremely maneuverable due to its 16 rear wheels and the front wheel can be locked. It has air-filled tyres that require pumping up every now and then. It can be used by children until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler loved the seat shape and she was able to steer it easily with her 3-year-old in the seat.

Another option that is great is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, that comes with an adjustable handlebar as well as a hood that is of high-quality with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move up and down kerbs and fits in a the boot of a car that is small 3 wheel stroller. It can also be used as a pram with baby car seat for newborns and toddlers.

Fabric slings are set inside the frame and not on top as modular seats. This design has a lower centre of gravity and a perfect height, instantly making it easier to push and lighter to kerb pop (you should never overestimate the amount of times you'll have to do that as new parents!)

Seating

There are a variety of alternatives for seating options in 3 wheelers. For babies, there is the option to use the included carrycot (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a comfortable and cozy lie flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy) In addition, older babies and toddlers can sit in the world-facing or parent facing seat that is large and padded and does have adjustable ventilation. It's important to note that these seats do not recline completely however, they can be adjusted to the lowest setting that will still allow your child plenty of headroom and room to move around.

A fabric sling seat is also available, which has the advantage of being set snugly inside the frame, rather than on top like the modular seat. This provides a lower center of gravity and perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially on bumpy terrain or over curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this style of seat handled the obstacles.

In addition to a large shopping basket, this type of buggy usually has very useful features like an extended 50+ UV hood, an easy to use brake pedal and some game-changing visibility lights that come up from the handlebars and can be placed in front of the passengers to improve their safety when traversing difficult terrain.

Alternatively, if you are searching for a single baby buggy that will expand with your family, there's the brand-new sport(tm) that is the first of its kind to take one baby from day dot and then change to take two or even 3 once your children have grown, all within the footprint of one buggy.

Storage

The 3-wheeled model is more stable and can be pushed with one hand. It's also ideal for difficult terrain. The shopping basket is smaller than a four-wheeler.

A good quality ATP will have excellent suspension, pneumatic tyres as well as an ergonomic handle that is cushioned to ensure your comfort. It should also be able to take car seats and a carrycot so you can use it right from the time you are born.

MFM's reviewers discovered that the 3 wheel pushchair travel system-wheeler frames didn't fit through their home doors or car boot. If you're concerned about space, make sure to verify the dimensions when the buggy is folded prior to purchasing.

Find a 3-wheeler that has 2 (or 3!) seats. This is the best option for your child's future and will save you money. The iCandy strawberry sport is one of the top of them and can be used as a single unit from day dot and later converts to a twin buggies when your baby starts walking.

Tyres

These tyres absorb bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's ride more comfortable. You'll find these on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath discovered to provide "an exceptional ride for my toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tires of the Phil and Ted's Sport made it easier for her to negotiate the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

They can be difficult to maintain and will require having their air pressure topped up regularly. They are also more vulnerable to punctures than foam tyres, so you'll need to make sure that you have a repair kit along with a spare inner tube and pump handy when traveling with your buggy.

PU tyres can be seen on a lot more pushchairs than air-filled tyres, but they're still as durable. PU tire are easily identifiable by their matte finish and soft feel. They also slide across flat and tidied surfaces.

It's usually possible to discern the difference between air-filled and PU tires by running your hands over each one, if it feels hard then it's a rubber tyre, and if it slides then it's a PU. You can also confirm that your buggy is fitted with PU tyres by sliding the tyres over a clean, flat surface They'll roll easily and fit snugly into their wheel hubs.

Foam tyres can handle the rough terrain that comes with high-performance buggies. The downside is that the foam may compress and make your buggy appear less stable as it loses its springy quality. The tyres can also be noisy because they generate a lot noise when you turn and navigate around the town.
