Three Wheeled Buggies

Three-wheeled buggies are great for strolling around the neighborhood or running. Their compact design makes it easy to maneuver even in tight spaces.

If you are looking for a smooth ride with your baby, select models with 360deg front wheels that can swivel. However, they are more prone to punctures, so be prepared with an repair kit.

Frame made of sturdy material

Recent figures have been released that show that the three-wheeled buggie - a symbol of the noughties of more money than sense is on the verge of disappearing. Four-wheelers have replaced them, and are more versatile and easier to drive while still looking stylish.

The bigger the wheels are the more your buggy will be able to deal with bumpy and uneven pavements. The larger wheels, both front and rear enable you to maneuver and more stable when walking downhill or on difficult terrain.

MFM reviewer Kath tested this buggy with an infant and a toddler and found it to be extremely durable. It handled cobbles, grass, and rough pavements as well as dirt tracks and kerbs. Kath said it felt solid to push, and very stable on difficult terrain. The tyres, which are inflated and require to be pumped regularly they have suspension built-in. It was extremely comfortable for my kids.

The size and shape of the seat is another aspect to think about. It is important for the seat to be big enough to allow your child to feel at ease and to lie down. Some three-wheel buggies will have an option to lie flat completely while others will only allow a parent facing one.

The Roma Atlas is a great alternative for off-road or wet walks. This buggy is ideal for a single child starting from birth and can be modified to accommodate two children as your family expands. It is suitable for toddlers and infants from birth until age 4. It comes with a bumper and raincover, a new 5-point harness, and a huge cushioned seat. Storage options are also a plus with a large storage basket, zip pockets on the hood, and an attractive pouch on the rear of the seat unit.

Wheels with a larger diameter

Larger wheels mean that your buggy will be more stable on rough terrain - perfect for buggies that are off-road. Additionally, they make it easier to manoeuvre the pushchair through narrow spaces. A lot of three-wheeled buggies come with swivel front wheels to assist you in maneuvering around tight corners, whereas others are designed for running and have fixed front wheels that lock to increase the speed and stability with which they can be driven. This is especially useful when you crash into the kerb or a tree. The front wheel will lift slightly to prevent hitting it.

Many 3 wheeled pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which allows them to navigate a wide range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They also tend to be lighter. They are also more susceptible to punctures, so you'll require an repair kit and spare inner tube in your arsenal.

Some of our favourite 3 wheeled travel system-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. These buggies, as per MFM's Kath, have larger wheels that she claims "perform well on grass, gravel roads and market town cobbles", and can easily move up and down kerbs. The buggies also come with a suspension that, according to Kath "smooths out bumps extremely effectively".

Buggies with larger wheels may be quite wide and may struggle to fit into narrow spaces. This is problematic if you intend to use it for jogging, or need to fit through narrow doorways while on the move. Most models come with compact folding options that permit you to take off the front wheels and store them in a more compact manner.

Easy to manoeuvre

One of the primary benefits to a three-wheeled buggy is that it can be much more maneuverable particularly with a child in the back. The way in which they are constructed means that the front wheels spin at a quick pace and are incredibly maneuverable and are ideal for difficult terrains like cobbles, parks and bumpy pavements as well as dirt tracks.

MFM reviewer Kath tried out a three-wheeler with her newborn and toddler and said: "The Terrain was a pleasure to navigate over the rough terrain with the swivel rear wheel being particularly helpful. I was also impressed with the way it handled the kerbs, particularly when using the brake operated by hand. I found it extremely steady when I was driving downhill or on uneven ground."

The only downside to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of a lightweight 3 wheel stroller-wheel buggy may make it difficult to squeeze into tight spaces. This is something you need to keep in mind when you live in one of the cities. If this is the case then a four-wheeled buggy might be the better option for you.

Bumper bar

Bumper bars will protect your child from scrapes and bumps when out and about. They are simple and quick to put in and will make your child feel safe and secure when out in the city or taking on tough terrain.

Created to match the sleek lines of your Slim Twin stroller, this bumper bar is an upholstered and soft surface that offers an ideal place for your child to hang onto when walking. The sturdy construction and durable design will ensure that your child can enjoy strolling around town without fearing of falling out of the buggy or leaning too far forward.

The fabric sling sits snugly inside the frame, not on top like the seat that is modular. This creates a lower centre of gravity for your infant at the ideal height, and also provides excellent weight distribution to make it easier to push over curbs (it is much easier to push a stroller up and down than you may think). MFM reviewer Kath found it coped really well with grass and cobbles and is a great choice for jogging due to its lockable swivel wheel on the front and air-filled tyres.

With a chic and sophisticated appearance, this bumper bar is sure to turn heads wherever you go. Available in a range of colours and finishes that can be customized to fit your style. The bumper bar can be removed and installed using the quick-release mechanism. Furthermore the bar is easy to clean and is made from durable materials that are easy to wipe down. This makes it a great option for families that want an elegant and safe accessory for their stroller.

Comfort

A 3 wheel buggies-wheel buggy provides the highest level of maneuverability and performance when going off road. With the perfect design and weight distribution, this kind of buggy is able to be able to turn at a moment's notice and be easy to steer with just one hand. All Mountain Buggies pass the same rigorous stability standards and tests as buggies with four wheels.

The sport's clever design puts the fabric sling seat inside the frame, rather than on top like modular seats. This lets it have lower center of gravity, which means it is more comfortable to push, has a less weighty curb-pop (you don't have to put in the same effort to raise the buggy's front end over a curb), and offers more stability and balance. With 16" rear wheels, lockable front wheel, and air-filled tyres which allow for a more smooth, comfortable jog.

The only all-terrain stroller in our range that comes with a parent-facing seat which can also accept an infant car seat or carrycot, you are able to make sure your family is prepared for every adventure starting from the very first day, and for years to be!

But that's not the only reason to adore this buggy - our MFM reviewer Kath loved how spacious it is, too. There's a huge, easily accessible basket that's huge for a buggy of this size and there's an excellent zip-up pouch on the rear of the seat unit and even 2 smaller mesh pockets under the hood for your keys and phone.
