3 Wheeled BuggiesA 3-wheel buggy can be used for off-road walks and for tackling terrain such as uneven paths or woodland tracks. They are also simpler to maneuver up and down kerbs as opposed to 4-wheel models.Kath, the editor of MadeForMums reviews, has tested one of these three-wheelers on tarmac, as well as on a variety of terrains. You can read her review here.StabilityWith four wheels and a centre of gravity that's balanced by the weight of your child in the seat, 4-wheel buggies are generally considered to be more stable than 3-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are worth considering since they can take on anything from rough terrain to busy streets.Find a buggie with large rear wheels, as well as one that locks on the front. This makes it more comfortable to drive and less likely to fall apart when you're on bumpy roads. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires, which are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces. They can be used on sandy beaches or woodland tracks.They are also excellent buggies to run with because they provide great stability in rough terrain, and can help you stay with your running partner. They can also go up and down steep kerbs and many come with a spring suspension that is built-in, so your baby will have a smooth ride.One factor that makes a pushchair with three wheels difficult to manoeuvre is the wide frame, which makes it more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces and narrow doors than a 4-wheeler. 3 wheeler pushchair have solved this issue by using clever design that turns the wheels upside down when they are not in use. This reduces their size and makes them easier to squeeze through doors.You'll also need to think about whether your buggy is suitable for your child from birth or if you're thinking of using it in conjunction with an infant car seat or carry cot. Find out if the buggy comes with a lie-flat feature and if it's compatible with a second seat and buggy boards if you plan to take an infant along. Many 3-wheelers fold flat and be positioned upright when collapsed and is handy if you have a small car boot or only a little storage space at home. Some 3-wheelers require you to remove the front wheel to fold them into smaller sizes.ManoeuvrabilityThree-wheeled buggies can be more maneuverable than four-wheeled strollers. They typically come with a swivelling front wheel which allows you to shift direction quickly and steer using only one hand. Some models have locks on the wheel to give you stability on more rough terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional buggy or seat, should you decide to grow your family.If you plan to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the paved roads then you should opt for an option with pneumatic tyres. They are able to handle the most difficult terrain. They will require periodic pumping, but will be far more durable than solid tyres and are more likely to be puncture-proof. Choose a model that has a an adjustable swivelling front wheel that locks to help you negotiate tricky surfaces.The fact that there is only one front wheel may also be a reason that three-wheelers tend to be heavier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Be sure that the model you choose fits in your car's boot and can be positioned in a straight line if needed. Some models are able to fold in one hand, and they're freestanding when collapsed, which will save space in boot spaces that are smaller.A good 3 wheel pushchair can cope with most terrain from busy high streets to tracks through woodlands. It's important to consider how you will use it every day. If you're planning to run the school run, it must be able to handle steep kerbs and slopes. If you intend to jog with it, make sure it has a swivelling'stretch front wheel' that can be locked. This will keep the ride in place.MFM reviewer Kath discovered her three-wheeled buggy able to cope really well with rural and urban walks. She said that it navigated cobbles, rough paths and bumpy pavements effortlessly and was comfortable to jog with. It is also a good option for day trips because it offers plenty of storage space. This includes a large, spacious, zip-top basket that is covered and an extended 50+ UV hood. It can be adjusted to meet the needs of a baby from birth, including the option of a carry cot or a lay-flat seat. It's also compatible with the most popular stroller seats and second seats.Fabric Sling SeatThe key difference between a fabric sling versus a modular seats is that the fabric sling fits snugly inside the buggy frame instead of sitting on top like a modular seat would. This allows for a more ergonomically appropriate position for the baby, resulting in a lower center of gravity, which is just the right height. This leads to a more comfortable 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.The sling fabric used in these kinds of seats are extremely durable and easy to clean. Developed specifically with the use of sling chairs in mind they are UV resistant and extremely breathable. They also have an excellent aging resistance and are very easy to clean using water and soap.If you're a jogger, or enjoy a bit of off-roading, an all terrain 3 wheeler will be more suited to your needs than a 4-wheel buggy. These styles generally have a larger base, more stable, and use air-filled tyres for agile smooth moving on uneven ground.A brand most well-known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a new 3-wheeler to its lineup with the Stella. This stroller is all-terrain and has a spacious and large seat that can be positioned either in the direction of the parent or facing the world. It also reclines flat and has an upgraded 5-point safety belt. It can be used from birth using an infant car seat or carrycot and comes with a generously sized shopping basket, hood with zip pockets, and a simple one-hand fold.This luxury 3 wheeler, designed for the most discerning buggy owner is as gorgeous to see as it is functional. The angular frame has a stunning pewter finish with accents of burnished aluminium. It is a real eye-catching piece. A large, padded seat that is world or parent-facing, with a more secure 5-point safety harness as well as a full set of rain covers make this a great option for parents who are active.Modular SeatModular seating can be set up in a variety of ways to meet a variety of seating requirements. Modular seating can be easily adjusted to create a comfortable setting for watching movies, or an open layout for entertaining guests. Many modular seating systems also come with cushion covers that can be removed, making it easier to clean up spills and staining.Modular Seating can be designed to blend with the existing decor or be a standout as an accent piece. You can choose from a range of colors, fabrics and shapes to design an elegant and modular seating design that fits your style. Many functional features are available in modular seating such as hidden storage compartments that allow an easy organization and cleaning of living spaces.3-wheel buggies are particularly good for off-road and all-terrain adventures since they offer more stability than 4-wheel strollers. The huge, highly maneuverable front wheel enables agile and smooth movement, whilst the tyres are generally air-filled and feature suspension, which gives you a great ride on even the most difficult trails and roads. The wheels are not as close to the ground on these pushchairs as they would be with 4 wheeled pushchairs. This makes them ideal for walking uphill.Often 3-wheel prams are a popular choice for parents who enjoy running and jogging with their baby, as they provide excellent mobility and are much more sleek than their 4-wheel counterparts. The GB Upp XL for example is a sleek and polished aluminium frame, with a quick one-hand fold and rear and forward facing seats, while the Babyzen Yoyo has an all black frame, a carrycot with full lie flat position air-filled tyres, and three recline positions.Mountain Buggy Sport verso is another excellent all-terrain option. It's extremely light and highly maneuverable. It's also incredibly fashionable. This buggy will truly protect your wallet from the future and can be used from birth using the carrycot all the way to toddlerhood with the seat that can be rearranged (and beyond!). It does this all within the footprint of one buggy.The most recent model, duet(tm), is a side-by-side buggy that's compact enough for urban living, yet with a lot of innovation and control. It has an exclusive seat made of fabric that is placed in the frame with a perfect fit at the right height to distribute weight. This makes it easy jumps over kerbs, and navigates cities and neighborhoods.
