3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheeler is perfect for rough terrain providing a smooth ride for your baby. They are also more convenient to push and maneuver than a four-wheel buggy, especially those with fabric slings or modular seat units that are placed comfortably within the frame, providing the most efficient geometry and weight distribution.

Stability

Three-wheeled vehicles are very stable, making them a great option for off-roading (especially when they are equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). They often feature oversized front wheels that can deal well with kerbs and bumps and rough ground. Some models even feature a lockable front tire to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It is important to remember that 3-wheel buggies may have a lower center of gravity than 4-wheeled models and this can mean that they can tip over more easily. The best 3 wheel stroller 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry to ensure they remain solid in all conditions. They should be able turn at a whim and be easy to steer with one hand. They also have the ability to rotate 360o on the front wheel that makes them perfect for navigating difficult terrain.

Look for models that have pneumatic tyres. These are made to handle nonpaved tracks, and are able to withstand mud, gravel, rocks and other debris. Many all-terrain buggies come with an swivelling wheel on the front that can be locked to provide greater stability when dealing with rough terrain.

A 3-wheel stroller is an excellent option for runners or those who like to walk fast and uphill, especially when you plan to attach an infant car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a wide-facing seat that can recline 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 lightweight, compact and suitable for infants and can be used in conjunction with a carrycot or car seat. It can also be used for light jogging however, it isn't designed for serious runners.

Weight

If you're seeking a buggy that can tackle difficult terrain, then you should pick one with large tires. They can handle grass, cobbles and dirt tracks, while providing a smooth ride for all passengers. They are also great for jogging because they have built in suspension and are easy to move up and down kerbs. However, the trade off 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 mobile due to its 16 rear wheels as well as a lockable front wheel. It has tyres with air that need to be pumped regularly. It can carry children until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath said that her toddler liked the shape of the seat and found it easy to steer with her three-year-old child on the seat.

The Baby Jogger Versa GT is an alternative that is also a great choice. It comes with a movable handlebar, a top-quality hood that provides 50+ UV protection as well as a high-quality hood. It is also easy to move kerbs upwards and downwards and fits into a the car's boot space in a small size. It can also be used as a pram, with an infant car seat for newborns and toddlers.

Fabric slings are positioned inside the frame, not on top like modular seats. This design has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the ideal height. It is much easier to push, and lighter to kerb-pop (you cannot underestimate how many times you'll need to do that as a brand new parent!).

Seating

The capacity for seating of 3 wheelers is impressive, and there are a number of different options to pick from. The included carrycot plus is ideal for a newborn (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a cozy and comfortable lay-flat bed that can be used in and out of the buggy). Older children and toddlers will appreciate the large and comfortable seat unit that has adjustable ventilation. It is important to note that the seats aren't fully reclined however, they can be adjusted to the lowest level which should still give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around.

A sling seat made of fabric is also available, which is placed snugly within the frame, rather than sitting on top as an open-back seat. This provides a lower center of gravity and perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, particularly on bumpy terrain or over curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this style of seat handled obstacles.

This kind of buggy comes with an enormous basket, along with other beneficial features, such as an extended hood with 50+ UV protection, a simple to use brake pedal, and a few innovative lights for visibility that can be positioned in front of occupants to ensure safety when riding on rough terrain.

If you're looking for a buggy that will grow along with your family it's the sport(tm), a world-first designed to accommodate a newborn and then be modified to fit three or more children as they grow. All in one footprint.

Storage

The 3-wheeled frame is much more stable and can be pushed with just one hand. It's also more suitable for terrains that are difficult to navigate. However, it also means that the shopping basket doesn't hold as much as a four-wheeled buggy.

A high-quality ATP will come with pneumatic tyres, a padded grip for better comfort, and an excellent suspension. It should be able to accept a carrycot or car seat, meaning you can use it from the time of birth.

MFM's reviewers have discovered that the 3-wheeler frame doesn't fit through all the doors of their homes or small car boots - make sure you know the dimensions of the buggy once it's folded before purchasing in case you're concerned about space.

It's worth looking into 3 wheel tandem stroller-wheelers that can accommodate 2 (or even 3!) seats once your family grows - these are the most efficient of both and future proof your money. The iCandy strawberry sport is among the top of them; it can be used as a single from day dot and then converts to twin buggies when your baby begins walking.

Tyres

Air filled tyres have been designed to provide your child with more comfort while riding by cushioning bumps and uneven surfaces. They are commonly found on pushchairs, such as the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath found to be "an outstanding ride for my toddler". She also noted that the grippy tires of the Phil and Ted's Sport made it simple for her to negotiate the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

They can be difficult to maintain and will require having their air pressure maintained regularly. These tyres are prone to punctures, so it is recommended to always carry an repair kit and spare inner tube with you when you're out and about.

PU tyres are found on a lot more pushchairs than air-filled tyres, but they're just as robust. PU tires are easily distinguished by their matte finish and soft feel. They also slide well on even and tied surfaces.

It's usually possible to tell the difference between air-filled and PU tire by running your fingers over each one, if it feels firm, then it's a rubber tyre, and if it slides then it's a PU. You can also check whether your buggy comes with PU tyres sliding them on flat, clean surfaces. They should roll easily and fit snugly into the wheel hubs.

Foam tyres are typically used in high-performance buggies and joggers because they can cope with the rough terrain that's common to this type of pushchair. This could make your buggy less stable since the foam will lose its springy feel. You'll also find that these kinds of tyres can frequently be noisy, as they create a lot of noise when you turn and make your way around the town.
