3 Wheel Buggies3 wheel buggies offer excellent maneuverability, and are a stylish, slim frame. Many of these feature an upholstered sling seat that has an incredibly comfortable lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution, ideal for babies from birth.The wheels are larger and often have suspension to ensure smooth, agile mobility on various terrains. The only drawback to these wheels is that they can be bulkier and heavier to transport and store.StabilityThree wheel buggies are extremely stable and don't tip over as easily as pushchairs with four wheels when traveling in a straight line and you'll notice that you can manoeuvre them much more quickly and easily. If you turn or stop abruptly, they may lose stability and tip over. For this reason, certain manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3 wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.The extra wheel also helps you to tackle off-road terrain. Find models that have air-filled tires (also known as pneumatic tyres) that can be used to handle off-road trails, sand, mud, and other surfaces such as rock and sand. These models will also feature a lockable wheel in the front to improve stability on rough terrain.The buggies are simple to maneuver and agile with 360o front swivel wheel. They'll also pass the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as the 4-wheel buggies.If you are looking for a fabric seat, these tend to be less upright in comparison to modular seats. This means that your baby's centre of gravity will be closer to the ground - instantly ensuring the smoothest ride.Most well-known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a lightweight travel system and pushchair to its line-up with the attractive Citylife. This 3-in-1 model is designed for urban living and is suitable from birth with a newborn carrycot or infant car seat. It comes with four wheels and an unique pewter-black frame that is described by the brand as'slim and compact. 3 wheel pushchair 's just 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.FoldingThere's a wide selection of 3 wheel buggies that fold compactly to fit into smaller space. A majority of these buggies are able to be folded with one hand and are easy to clean. Some of the smaller models have a simple height-of-handlebar adjustment, while others feature adjustable suspensions and an ultraviolet canopy of 50+ that can be extended. Certain models may come with large baskets and a brake lever that's quick-release.The most efficient 3 wheel buggy to tackle rough terrainA 3-wheel buggy will usually be more adept at dealing with off-road conditions better than a 4-wheel model, although both models can get stuck in difficult spots. A model with larger rear and front wheels can help. This makes it easier to push them over rough terrain, and can assist you in climbing up and down steep curbs.One option is the new Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its surprisingly responsive handling despite its three-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath tried it with her baby and 3-year-old and said "it does really well on bumpy pavements, cobbles gravel tracks and dirt roads, as well as on a few hills."Another great alternative is the newest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from car seat brand Maxi-Cosi which is called Stella. It's suitable from birth when used in conjunction with the carrycot. It's a smaller than the light 4wheelers (with an impressively slim 54cm wide frame) but has big air-filled tyres, three recline positions and a fast one-hand fold.Its main selling point is its modularity, though it's compatible with all the car seats for infants from the brand and strollers. You can design your own travel system, no matter if you want to go on shorter walk or a longer one using the chassis.TyresThe tyres for 3 wheel buggies are offered in a variety of styles and types of materials. Each one has its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer an easy ride and excellent maneuverability, while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type you pick will depend on your lifestyle and where you live.If you plan to travel on unpaved roads or rough terrain often, you might want to consider a three-wheeler with more durable tyres. Take into consideration the kind of suspension you need. Suspensions that are strong are ideal for tackling bumps and humps but they can also be heavy, adding to the overall weight.The size of the tyre is important. Understanding how to read tyre sizing is crucial to ensure safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on the tyre's sidewall might appear confusing, but once you decode it, you can understand the tyre dimensions. A tyre with a size of 185/70 R14 for instance is a radial tire in the 185/70 size with a 14-inch rim diameter.PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you aren't sure if the tires on a pushchair are made of rubber or PU, try sliding the tires across an even surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made from PU. If not, they are made of rubber.SuspensionThe suspension of a three-wheeled buggy makes it more comfortable for your child since it will absorb any bumps or knocks from rough terrain. A large wheel that are ideally air-filled and lockable for stability during jogging is essential to ensure that your buggy will be capable of navigating off roads with ease.Based on the type of buggie you're looking for, there are options that will fit all lifestyles and budgets. The Mountain Buggy, for example, pioneered all-terrain agility in a three-wheel buggies. With perfect geometry and engineering their sling seat made of fabric is tucked away within the frame, as opposed to being on top of modular seats, resulting in an lower center of gravity and sitting at the ideal height to ensure optimal weight distribution, allowing it to easily take on kerb pops.Another option that is worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that has a sleek design with large highly manoeuvrable front wheel, a great suspension and an easy-to-use handbrake with a twist. MFM reviewer Kath tested the buggy its paces by taking it for a walk through rough terrain. She was impressed with how it performed admirably and claimed that it "navigates over grass, bumpy sidewalks, cobbles and dirt tracks and allows you to easily go up and down kerbs".The Roma Atlas is another popular off-road option that, similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes with a variety of colours to complement your style. It also comes with an adjustable handlebar and a spacious basket. You can also pick from a variety of infant car seats to transform the buggy into a pram, including the stylishly designed carrycot plus(tm) that is a comfy lie-flat crib for babies and infants that are up to 12 months old.SafetyFour wheels make the pushchair more stable and less likely to tip over, and more easy to maneuver. It can also be safer for your baby as their weight is distributed more evenly throughout the frame of the pushchair.A four-wheeled buggy has a lower center of gravity, which makes it easier to climb over curbs and walk up. The seat made of fabric is within the frame, not on top of it like modular seats do, which creates a low seating position and a lighter buggy that is more easily manoeuvred.However, if you'd like to go for a run with your baby then a 4-wheeler might be better suited since it comes with suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the rear one so you can tackle rough terrains and bumpy roads Be aware that not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most are NOT, such as the Phil and Teds). The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially designed suspension system that has been tested independently on all kinds of terrain.
