3 Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies are stylish and sleek, and have outstanding maneuverability. Many of these have a fabric sling with a cosy lay flat bed that is perfect for weight distribution and are ideal starting at birth.

The wheels are larger, and they also often come with suspension for agile smooth movements on different terrains. The only drawback to these wheels is that they may be more bulky and heavy to transport and store.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are extremely solid - they don't fall over as easily as four-wheeled pushchairs when they're in a straight line, and you'll notice that you can maneuver them more quickly and efficiently. However, if you attempt to stop or turn suddenly, they'll lose stability and could tip over. This is why some manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3 wheeled buggies wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.

The extra wheel also helps you to tackle off-road terrain. Look for models that have air-filled tyres (also called pneumatic tyres) as they are able to deal with off-road trails and other surfaces including rocks, sand and mud. These models will also feature wheels that lock on the front, which will increase stability on rough terrain.

With the correct design, engineering and weight distribution, these buggies can be turned on a dime and are easy to steer using just one hand; have 360o front swivel wheels that allow mobility and agility to be effortless and easy to handle. They also meet the same global stability standards and tests as buggies with four wheels.

If you're looking for a cloth sling seat, then they are typically placed lower in the frame than modular seats so that your baby's center of gravity is closer to the floor which means a smoother ride and a less noticeable kerb pop (you don't need to apply the same amount of pressure or effort to lift the buggy over and up a kerb).

Popular for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a lightweight travel system and pushchair to its product line with the striking Citylife. The model is designed for urban living and can be used starting at birth with a newborn carrycot or infant car seat. It has four wheels and an exclusive pewter-black aluminum frame that is described by the brand as'slim and compact. It's only 2cm wide than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are a lot of three wheel buggies (bbs.theviko.com) that can be folded in a compact way to can fit into smaller spaces. Many can be folded with a single hand and are simple to wash down. The smallest models will feature a simple handlebar height adjustment, while others may have an adjustable suspension and an extendable 50+ UV canopy. Some models may have an enormous basket as well as brake levers that are quick-release.

The most efficient 3 wheel tandem stroller wheeled buggy for taking on rough terrain

A 3 wheel stroller brands-wheeled model is typically better equipped to handle off-road terrain when compared to a four-wheeled model but both may get stuck in tight corners. A model with larger front and rear wheels can aid. This allows them to push over uneven ground and will often help with moving up and down the high kerbs.

One option is the latest Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its agile handling despite its 3 wheel umbrella stroller-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath used it with her baby and 3-year-old son and reported that "it does really well on bumpy pavements, cobbles, dirt roads and gravel tracks, as well as on a few hills."

Another alternative is the new all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from Maxi-Cosi, a car seat manufacturer, called Stella. It can be used from birth if used with a carrycot. It is slightly larger than the lightweight 4-wheelers, but it has air-filled tires and three recline positions and a one-handed fold.

Its main selling point is its modularity it's compatible with all of the brand's infant car seats and strollers. You can build your own travel system, whether you want to go on shorter walk or a longer one by using the chassis.

Tyres

The tyres for 3 wheel buggies are available in many styles and materials. Each comes with its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air provide a comfortable performance and maneuverability, whereas foam-filled tyres 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 may be interested in a three-wheeler that has more robust tyres. You should also think about the type of suspension that you require. Suspensions that are strong are ideal to deal with humps and bumps but they can be heavy and add to the overall weight.

The size of the tyre is crucial. Understanding how to read the tyre's size is essential for safety, performance and longevity. The combination of numbers and letters on the sidewalls of tyres can seem at first, but decoding it allows you to understand the tyre's dimensions. For instance, a tyre's size of '185/70 R14 indicates that the tire is a 185/70 radial with a 14-inch rim diameter.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are lighter and more puncture resistant than rubber ones. If you're unsure whether the pushchair you are using has rubber or PU tires, you can test sliding the tires across a smooth and tied surface. If the tires slide easily and smoothly, they're made of PU. If they don't, then the tires are composed of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three wheel buggy can make it more comfortable for your child as it absorbs any bumps or knocks from rough terrain. Large wheels that are air-filled and are able to be locked to provide stability when running are essential. This will enable your buggy to maneuver over off-road surfaces with ease.

Depending on the style of buggie you're looking for There are options that will fit all lifestyles and budgets. For example the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility with its three-wheel buggies. With perfect geometry and engineering their fabric sling seat sits snug within the frame, as opposed to sitting on top like modular seats, offering the lowest centre of gravity and sitting at the perfect height for optimal weight distribution, allowing it to easily take on the kerb pops.

Another great option is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that boasts a sleek style with a large, highly maneuverable front wheel, a great suspension and a simple handbrake with a twist. MFM reviewer Kath really put this buggy to the test by taking it for a hike through rough terrain and she found that it handled the terrain really well saying that it 'navigates effortlessly over bumpy grass, cobbles, pavements, dirt tracks and even makes light work of climbing and descending the kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road choice. It comes in a variety of colors that will match your style. It also features an adjustable handlebar, a large basket and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also pick from a variety of infant car seats that will transform the buggy into a pram. This includes the elegantly designed Carrycot Plus(tm) which is a comfy lie-flat baby bed suitable for infants and newborns from 12 months old.

Safety

Four wheels make a buggy more stable, less likely for it to tip over and easier to maneuver. It is also more secure for your baby since their weight is distributed more evenly throughout the frame of the pushchair.

A four-wheeled buggy also tends to have a lower center of gravity, making it more easy to roll over curbs and up the stairs. The seat made of fabric is inside the frame rather than on top of it like modular seats do, which makes for a low-slung seating position, and a lighter buggy that is easily manoeuvred.

However, if you want to go out for a run with your baby then a four-wheeler is better suited as it comes with suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the back one which allows you to navigate bumpy roads and rough terrain - just bear in mind not all buggies with 4 wheels are suitable for running (most aren't, such as the Phil and Teds). Mountain Buggies are the exception since they feature a specially-designed suspension system that's been independently tested across all types of terrain.
