3 Wheeled Buggies

A 3-wheel buggy is great for off-roading and taking on terrains that is bumpy, like woodland tracks. They are also simpler to move on kerbs, and they are less prone to slipping down when compared to 4-wheel models.

MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these 3 wheel compact stroller-wheelers with her newborn and three year old, and put it through its paces on the road and on a rocky surface. Check out her review here.

Stability

Four-wheel buggies with their centre of gravity balancing by the weight of your child in the seat, are generally more stable than three-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are still worth considering since they can take on anything from rough terrain to busy streets.

For a buggy that's really easy to control and won't be a problem on bumpy pavements, look for a model with large rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. These all-terrain buggies often have pneumatic tyres too, which are great at handling surfaces that aren't paved and can be used on sandy beaches or woodland tracks.

These are also the best buggies for jogging 3 wheel stroller with, as they provide great stability on rough terrain and help you keep pace with your jogging partner. They can also be used to go up and down steep kerbs, and many come with a spring suspension that is built-in, so your baby can enjoy an enjoyable ride.

The main factor that makes a 3-wheeled pushchair tricky to maneuver is the broad frame, which makes it more difficult to maneuver into narrow spaces and tight doors than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have addressed this problem with clever design that turns the wheels upside down when they are not being used. This reduces their size and makes it easier to fit through doorways.

It's also important to think about whether your buggy is suitable for your child from birth, or if you're planning on using it in conjunction with an infant car seat or carry cot. If so, check for the ability to lie flat and if the design is compatible with other seats and buggy boards (if you want to add an infant onboard). A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat, and later be placed upright. This is great for those with a small boot space or have limited storage at home. Some 3-wheelers require you to remove the front wheel in order to fold them into smaller sizes.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled buggies generally provide better maneuverability than pushchairs with four wheels. Many of them have an swivelling wheel at the front which allows you to control and change direction with one hand. Certain models come with a lockable wheel that can offer stability on rough terrain. Some models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board in case you're planning to expand your family.

If you intend to take your three-wheeled buggies off the paved roads it is recommended to choose a model with pneumatic tyres. They can handle the most difficult terrain. These tyres may need to be regularly pumped up from time time, but they will be more durable and puncture-proof compared to solid tyres. Find a model with a a lockable swivelling front wheel to assist you in maneuvering difficult surfaces.

When folded, three-wheelers may be more bulky than buggies with four wheels due to the single wheel in front. Make sure the model you choose can fit into the boot of your vehicle and can be raised if needed. Certain models can be folded with one hand, and they can be raised when folded. This will save space in the boot of your car.

A quality three-wheel pushchair will be used on all terrains, from busy streets to forest tracks. It's important to think about what you'll be using it for every day. If you'll be running the school run, it should be able to cope with steep slopes and kerbs. If you'll be jogging with it, ensure it has an adjustable swivelling'stretch' lockable front wheel to ensure that the ride is steady.

Kath who is an MFM reviewer, found that her stroller with three wheels was able to take on urban and rural walks. She said it was able to negotiate cobbles, rough paths and bumpy pavements effortlessly and was comfortable while jogging. It's also a great option for day trips as it offers plenty of storage space, including a huge and spacious basket that has a zip-top cover as well as an extendable 50+ UV hood. It can be modified to meet the needs of babies from birth, including an infant carry cot or a lay-flat seat. It's also compatible with the most popular second seats and stroller boards.

Fabric Sling Seat

The main difference between a fabric sling and a modular seat is that the fabric sling is placed snugly inside the buggy frame rather than being positioned on top like a modular seat would. This allows for a more ergonomically-correct posture for the baby and instantly provides lower center of gravity that is at the proper height. This leads to a smoother push, a more light curb-pop (you don't have to exert as much effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and increased stability and balance.

These seats also have sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. Made specifically for the use of sling chairs in mind These fabrics are extremely UV resistant and air-tight. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain using mild soap and warm water.

The large front wheel, which is highly maneuverable, allows for smooth and agile movement. The tyres, which are usually air-filled and come with suspension, give you a great ride on the most difficult trails and roads.
