Three Wheeled Buggies

Whether you're looking for a buggy run around in or a compact stroller for neighbourhood walks, three wheeled buggies are great for mobility. Their compact design makes it easy to maneuver, even in tight places.

For a smooth ride, go for a pram fitted with air-filled tyres. Look for models with 360deg front swivel wheels. They are susceptible, however, to punctures. Make sure you have a repair set.

Sturdy frame

New data show that three-wheeled buggies that were the emblem of the noughties, which had more money than common sense, are in a steep decline. They have been replaced by four-wheelers that can be more versatile in terrain, while also looking elegant and easy to push.

The idea is that the bigger the wheels, the easier it will be for your buggy to cope with bumpy and rough pavements. With larger wheels front and back also makes it much easier to manoeuvre and more stable when walking downhill or on difficult terrain.

MFM reviewer Kath tested this buggy with an infant as well as a child who was 3 wheeler pushchair years old and found it extremely sturdy. It was able to withstand cobbles, grass and rough pavements as well as dirt tracks and kerbs. Kath said that "it is sturdy to push and extremely solid when you're on rough terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable, so require occasional pumping) offer built-in suspension which was extremely comfortable for my kids.

Another thing to consider is the seat size and shape. You'll want it to be large enough to accommodate your child's comfort. You will also need it to recline so that they can lie flat. Certain three-wheel buggies have the option of reclining completely, while others will only allow a parent facing one.

The Roma Atlas is a great alternative for off-road or walking in muddy areas. This buggy is suitable for a single child starting from birth and can be adjusted to accommodate two children as your family grows. It is suitable for toddlers and infants from birth to age 4, and comes with a bumper with a rain cover, an upgraded 5-point harness, and a large cushioned seat. The storage options are great too, with a decent-sized basket, zip pockets on the hood and an attractive pouch at the back of the seat unit.

Larger wheels

Larger wheels mean your buggy will have more stability on rough terrain - perfect for off-road buggies. They also make it easier to move the pushchair around tight spaces. Certain three-wheeled buggies have wheels that swivel on the front to help you navigate tight corners. Others are designed for running and have fixed wheels that lock to provide increased speed and stability. This is also useful if you crash into trees or a kerb. The front wheel can be lifted slightly to keep it from hitting it.

Many 3 wheel travel stroller wheeled pushchairs (index) have air-filled tyres, which allows them to navigate a wide range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They're also lighter. They are also more susceptible to punctures, so you will need to have an repair kit and spare inner tube in your arsenal.

Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. These buggies, as per MFM's Kath, have larger wheels that, she says "perform well on grass, gravel roads and market town cobbles", and can easily move up and down kerbs. The buggies also come with suspension that according to Kath "smooths out bumps extremely effectively".

The drawback of having larger wheels is that they can make some buggies quite wide and can struggle to fit through narrow spaces. This can be problematic if you intend to are using it as a jogger, or need to fit through doorways that are narrow when traveling. Fortunately, the majority of models come with compact folding options that allow you to remove the front wheels to create more compact storage.

Easy to Manoeuvre

One of the main benefits to a three-wheeled buggy is that it's much easier to maneuver especially with a child in the back. The way in which they are constructed means that the front wheels spin on a dime and are incredibly easy to maneuver and are ideal for difficult terrain like cobbles, parks or bumpy pavements, as well as dirt tracks.

MFM reviewer Kath tried an all-wheeler with her toddler, and she wrote: "The Terrain is a delight to navigate on rough terrain. The front swivel wheel was particularly useful." I was also impressed with how well it dealt with the kerbs, particularly when using the brake operated by hand. I found it extremely steady when I was driving downhill or over uneven ground."

The only drawback to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of a 3 wheel buggy can sometimes make it difficult to squeeze into tight spaces. This is something to keep in mind when you live in an urban area. If this is the case then a four-wheeled buggy might be the better choice for you.

Bumper bar

Bumper bars are the ideal method to shield your little one from bumps and scrapes when out and about. These bumper bars are easy to put in place and will allow your child to feel safe and secure out and about.

The bumper bar is designed to complement the sleek lines of your Slim Twin stroller. It has a soft, cushioned surface that provides a comfortable surface for your child to grab onto while walking. The sturdy construction and durable design will ensure that your child will take a stroll around town without having to worry about falling out of the buggy or leaning too far in the direction of.

The sling seat is in the frame, snugly instead of on top of it like modular seats. It provides the lowest center of gravity at the right height for your infant and also providing excellent weight distribution for easy kerb pop (it takes less effort to push a buggy up and over a curb than you think). MFM reviewer Kath said it's excellent on cobbles and grass. It's also a great option for running with its air-filled tyres as well as a locking swivel wheels.

With a sophisticated and stylish look this bumper bar is sure to turn heads wherever you go. Available in a range of finishes and colours and designs, it can be tailored to suit your personal style. The bumper bar can be removed and installed by the quick-release mechanism. The bumper bar is easy to clean since it is constructed from durable materials. This makes it a great choice for families who want an elegant and safe accessory for their stroller.

Comfort

A 3 wheel baby buggy-wheel buggy is the ideal off-road vehicle for maneuverability and performance. With perfect design, engineering and weight distribution this kind of buggy is able to change direction on a dime and be a breeze to steer using just one hand. Mountain Buggies are tested to the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as buggies with 4 wheels.

The sport's clever design puts the fabric sling seat inside the frame, instead of over it like modular seats. This allows it to have lower center of gravity which means it's more comfortable to push, has a less weighty curb-pop (you will not need to put in as much effort to lift the buggy's hood over a curb) and also provides better balance and stability. With the 16" rear wheels, lockable front wheel, and tyres that are air-filled which allow for a smoother, more comfortable jogging.

The only all-terrain stroller in our collection that has a parent-facing seat that can also accept an infant car seat or carrycot, you are able to ensure your family's future is secure and enjoy every adventure beginning from the first day and for many years to come!

And that's not the only reason to adore this buggy - our MFM reviewer Kath loved how spacious it is as well. There's a nimble large basket that's surprisingly spacious for a buggy that's this big. Additionally, there's a handy pouch on the back seat unit, and two smaller mesh pockets under the hood, where you can keep your keys and phone.
