Three Wheeled Buggies
If you're looking for a buggy to jog with or just a nifty stroller to tackle the neighborhood, three-wheeled buggies are great for mobility. Their compact design makes them easy to maneuver even in tight spaces.
If you are looking for an easy ride in your baby, select models with 360deg front wheels with swivel. However, they are susceptible to punctures so be prepared with a repair kit.
Sturdy frame
New figures show that three-wheeled buggies, that symbol of the noughties that were more expensive than common sense, are in rapid decline. Four-wheelers are replacing them, and are more flexible and simple to drive while still looking stylish.
The general idea is that the bigger the wheels, the easier it will be for your buggy to cope with bumpy ground and rough pavements. The larger wheels on both the front and back makes it much easier to manoeuvre and more stable when walking downhill or over difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tried this buggy out with a newborn and 3 year old and found it was able to withstand cobbles, grass, rough roads, dirt tracks, and kerbs. She said that it felt solid to push, and very stable on difficult terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable so need periodic pumping) come with suspension built-in, which was very comfortable for my children.
The size and shape of the seat is another thing to think about. You will want it to be big enough for your child's comfort and you will also require it to recline for them to lie flat. Some three-wheel buggies offer a full lie-flat option while others allow the parent to be facing one.
The Roma Atlas is a great alternative for off-road or muddy walks. This buggy is ideal for a single child as early as 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 and raincover, a new 5-point harness, and a large padded seat. The storage options are great as well, with a large basket, zip pockets in the hood, and an attractive pouch at the back of the seat unit.
Wheels with a larger diameter
Larger wheels give your buggy more stability while driving over rough terrain. This is perfect for buggies designed for off-road use. three wheel pushchair make it easier to navigate the pushchair through tight spaces. Some three-wheeled buggies feature wheels that swivel at the front to assist you in navigating tight corners. Others are designed for running and have fixed wheels that lock for greater speed and stability. This is also helpful in the event that you hit a tree root or stray kerb as the front wheel will rise up slightly to prevent you from hitting it.
A lot of 3 wheel pushchairs have air filled tyres which means they are able to handle different terrains and are far more flexible than four wheelers. They also tend to be lighter. They are also more susceptible to punctures, so you will need to have a repair kit and spare inner tube on hand.
Mountain Buggy Core, Venicci Carbo and Venicci Carbo Lux are among our favorite 3-wheelers. Both of these buggies have larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on gravel tracks, grass and market town cobbles" and are able to effortlessly climb and descend kerbs. They also come with a suspension system that, in her words "smoothes out bumps extremely effectively".
The downside of having bigger wheels is that they make some buggies quite broad and may struggle to squeeze through narrow spaces. This is an issue if you're using it as an exercise bike or to maneuver through doors that are narrow when out and out and about. Fortunately, many models come with small folding options that allow you to take off the front wheels for more compact storage.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the primary benefits to a three wheel buggy is that it is much easier to maneuver especially with a child on the way. They are designed so that the front wheels rotate at a moment's notice, and are easy to maneuver, making them perfect for difficult terrain like parks, cobblestones as well as bumpy roads and dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tested a 3 wheeler with her infant and toddler and stated: "The Terrain was a delight to maneuver on the terrain, with the swivel front wheel particularly useful. I was also amazed by the way it dealt with kerbs using the hand-operated break. It was extremely stable when in the downhills or on uneven terrain."
The only drawback to this amazing maneuverability is that the 3 wheel buggy's larger wheels do sometimes mean that it will struggle in tight spaces - something to be aware of when you live in a metropolitan region. If this is an issue, a 4-wheeled buggy may be a better option for you.
Bumper bar
Bumper bars protect your child from bumps and scrapes while out and out and about. These bumper bars are easy to install and will make your child feel secure and safe while out and about.
It is designed to complement the sleek lines of your Slim Twin stroller, this bumper bar features an upholstered and soft surface that offers a comfortable place for your child to hold onto when walking. The sturdy construction and durable design will ensure that your child will be able to enjoy strolling around town without having to worry about falling or leaning towards the side.
The sling is stowed within the frame and not on top of the seat that is modular. This creates a lower centre of gravity for your infant at the right height and also provides great weight distribution, making it easier to pop over curbs (it is much easier to push a stroller up and over than you think). MFM reviewer Kath said it's excellent on cobbles and grass. It's also a good alternative for running, thanks to its tyres that are filled with air and a locking swivel wheels.
This bumper bar is sure to turn heads wherever it is utilized. It has a classy and elegant design. Available in a variety of finishes and colours that can be customized to match your style. The bumper bar can be removed and put in place with a quick-release mechanism.

With perfect design and engineering, as well as weight distribution this style of buggy can turn on a dime and be a breeze to steer with one hand; and all Mountain Buggies pass the same rigorous stability standards and tests as 4-wheel buggies.
The seat is made of fabric positioned snugly inside the frame, not over it like modular seats, the Sport's clever design allows it to have a lower centre of gravity that is the perfect level for your child - giving you a more comfortable push, a lighter curb pop (you don't require as much weight or effort to push the buggy's nose up and over the curb) and better stability and balance. With the 16" rear wheels, lockable front wheel, and air-filled tyres, you can enjoy an easier, more comfortable jog.

Kath the MFM reviewer, also appreciated the space of this buggy. There's a easily accessible, large basket that is quite spacious for a buggy of this size. There's also an excellent pouch on the back seat unit, as well as two smaller mesh pockets beneath the hood where you can keep your phone and keys.
