3 Wheeler Buggies

A tri-wheeled stroller is ideal for off-road terrain and provides an easy ride for babies. They are also simpler to push and maneuver than a four-wheel buggy and are especially suitable for those with slings made of fabric or modular seat units, which are tightly positioned in the frame and provide the best design and weight distribution.

Stability

A three-wheel buggy has excellent stability, which is why it's an ideal option for off-road walking (especially with an all terrain or off-road style seat unit). These types of buggys typically have large front tires that are able to handle bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some even have a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It's worth bearing in mind that 3-wheel buggies may have a lower center of gravity than 4-wheeled models and this can mean that they fall over more easily. The most reliable 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry to ensure that they remain stable in any condition. They should be able to turn on a dime and be easy to steer using just one hand, and have the front wheel rotate 360o that makes them great for manoeuvring and navigating difficult terrain.

For really tricky surfaces, look out for models with air-filled tyres, also known as pneumatic tyres. They are designed to work on non-paved tracks and should cope with mud, gravel, rock and more. A lot of all-terrain buggies have a swivelling wheel on the front that can be locked to provide extra stability when you're dealing with rough terrain.

A 3 wheel baby strollers-wheeler is an excellent option for runners or for those who like to walk quickly and uphill, particularly if you're planning to attach an infant car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent example. It features a flat-reclining seat with a 5-point harness, and plenty of storage space to store all your equipment (plus a 50+ extendable sun hood). It's lightweight 3 wheel stroller, compact, and suitable for use from birth. It can be used with a car seat or a carrycot. It also allows for a bit of light jogging, but isn't designed for serious runners.

Weight

If you're seeking a buggy that can handle the tough terrain, then you'll need one with large wheels. These are made to handle grass, cobbles and dirt tracks with ease, while still providing smooth riding. They're also good for jogging because they have built in suspension and are simple to get up and down kerbs. However, 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). The 3-wheel buggy comes with 16 rear wheels and an swivel wheel lockable to the front which makes it very maneuverable. It has air tyres, which require pumping occasionally and it can be used to carry children up to 3. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the seat shape and she found steering it easy even with her 3-year-old on board.

Another option that is great is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, with a movable handlebar as well as a hood that is of high-quality with 50+ UV protection. It's also easy to move up and down kerbs, and it can fit in small car boots. It can be used as a stroller along with baby carriers or toddlers.

Fabric slings are set within the frame and not on top as modular seats. This design has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the ideal height. It is easier to push, and lighter to kerb-pop (you don't know how many times you'll do this as a new parent!).

Seating

There are many options for seating in 3 wheelers. The carrycot that comes with it is perfect for newborns (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a cozy and comfortable lie-flat bed that can be used in and out of the buggy). Older children and toddlers will enjoy the large and comfortable seat with adjustable ventilation. It is important to note that the seats do not recline completely however they can be lowered to the lowest setting which should still give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around.

A sling made of fabric is also available. It has the advantage that it is positioned inside the frame instead of being placed on top of it as a seat that is modular. This means that it has a lower centre of gravity with 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.

In addition to a big shopping basket, this kind of buggy usually has quite useful features, such as an extended 50+ UV hood, a simple brake pedal and some game-changing visibility lights that pop up from the handlebar and can be placed in front of the passengers to ensure their safety when tackling tricky terrain.

If you're searching for a stroller that can grow with your family, the sport(tm) is a first in the world designed to accommodate the newborn, and later be modified to accommodate three or more children as they grow. All in one footprint.

Storage

The 3 wheel stroller-wheeled frame makes the buggy much more stable to push one handed, and it's also great for handling difficult terrain. However, it does mean that the shopping basket can't hold as much as a 4-wheeler buggy.

A good quality ATP will have excellent suspension, pneumatic tyres, and an ergonomic handle that is cushioned for your comfort. It should also be equipped with car seats and a carrycot which means you can use it right from birth.

MFM's reviewers discovered that the 3 wheel infant stroller-wheeler frames didn't pass through their doors at home or car boot. If you're concerned about space, be sure to verify the dimensions of the buggy when it is folded before purchasing.

Look for a 3-wheeler with 2 (or 3 wheel parent facing pushchair!) seats. seats as your family grows. These are the most efficient of both and future proof your money. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is among the most well-known. It can be used as early as day dot as a single buggy, and later converted into twin buggies after your baby starts to walk.

Tyres

These tyres absorb bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's ride more comfortable. These are included on pushchairs such as the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath said was "an amazing ride for her toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tyres on the Phil & Ted's Sport made it simple for her to navigate the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

These tyres are sometimes tricky to keep inflated and need to be filled regularly. These tyres are more susceptible to punctures, and you should always carry a repair kit as well as an spare inner tube with you when you're out and about.

PU tyres can be found on more pushchairs than air-filled tyres, yet they are still just as robust. You can recognise PU tire treads by their matte appearance and soft, smooth feel. They also glide well on even and tied surfaces.

If you run your hand over the tyres you can tell if they're rubber or PU. If it feels as if it's sliding, then it is a rubber or PU. You can also check whether your buggy comes with PU tyres, by sliding them on flat, clean surfaces. They should roll smoothly and fit snugly into wheel hubs.

Foam tyres can handle the rough terrain of high-performance buggies. The drawback is that the foam can expand and cause your buggy to feel less stable as it loses its springy feel. You'll also find that these tyres may typically be noisy because they make a lot of noise when you turn and make your way around town.
