3 Wheeler Buggies
A three-wheeled buggy is ideal for off-road terrain and offers a smooth ride for baby. They are also more convenient to maneuver and push than a four-wheel buggy especially if they have fabric slings or modular seats that are set snugly in the frame, offering the most efficient geometry and weight distribution.
Stability
Three-wheeled buggys are extremely stable, which makes them an excellent option for off-roading (especially when equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). They often feature oversized front wheels, which cope well with bumps and kerbs as well as rough terrain. Some even have a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.
It's important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies may have a lower center of gravity than 4-wheeled models and this can mean that they topple over more easily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry to ensure that they remain solid in all conditions. They must be able to pivot on a dime and be easy to steer with one hand and have a 360o swivelling front wheel which makes them perfect for maneuvering and navigating difficult terrain.
For surfaces that are extremely challenging be sure to choose models with air-filled tyres which are also referred to as pneumatic tyres. They are made to handle roads that are not paved and can deal with mud, gravel, rock and more. Many all-terrain buggies come with a swivelling wheel on the front that can be locked for extra stability when you're dealing with rough terrain.
A tri-wheeled pram is a great choice for those who run or like to walk fast uphill. This is particularly true if you are planning to connect to a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It has the flat-reclining seat, 5-point harness and plenty of storage space to store all your equipment (plus a 50+ extendable sun hood). It's lightweight, compact and suitable from birth and can be used in conjunction with a carrycot or car seat. It can also handle some moderate jogging, but it's not designed for serious runners.
Weight
If you're looking for a buggy that can handle the tough terrain then you want one with big wheels. These are made to handle dirt, cobbles, and grass tracks with ease and still provide an enjoyable ride. They are also great for jogging as they have a suspension built-in and are easy enough to climb up and down kerbs. The trade-off is that they're a bit heavy to push.
The best 3 wheel buggy for rough terrain is the Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 (pictured above). The 3-wheel buggy is extremely mobile due to its 16 rear wheels and an adjustable front wheel that locks. It comes with tyres filled with air that require pumping up from time to time. 3 wheeler pushchair can be used by children up until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler loved the shape of the seat, and she found it easy to drive with her three-year-old on board.
Another great option is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, which has an adjustable handlebar and a high-quality hood with 50+ UV protection. It's also simple to get up and down kerbs and fit in small car boots. It can also be used as a pram with a carrycot or infant car seat for infants and toddlers.
Fabric sling seats sit snugly inside the buggie's frame rather than on top of it like modular seats. This model has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the right height. It is easier to push, and is lighter to kerb-pop (you can't underestimate the number of times you will do that as a new parent!).
Seating
There are a myriad of options for seating in 3 wheelers. For babies you have the option to use the carrycot and (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cosy and comfortable lie flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy), while older babies and toddlers can be seated in the parent-facing or world-facing seat unit that is roomy and padded, and comes with adjustable ventilation. It is important to note that the seats don't recline fully however, they can be adjusted to the lowest position which should still give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around.
A sling seat made of fabric is also available. It has the advantage of being positioned snugly inside the frame, rather than on top like a modular seat and this gives a lower centre of gravity as well as a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this kind of seat dealt with challenges.
Alongside a huge shopping basket, this kind of buggy generally has very useful features like an extended 50+ UV hood, a simple brake pedal, and some game-changing visibility lights that pop up from the handlebars and can be placed directly in front of the occupants to ensure their safety when tackling tricky terrain.
If you're seeking a buggy that will grow along with your family, the sport(tm) is a world first designed to accommodate the newborn, and later be modified to fit two or three children as they grow, all within one footprint.
Stores
The 3-wheeled frame makes the buggy much more stable to push with one hand, and it's also great for handling terrain that is difficult to navigate. However, it also means that the shopping basket doesn't hold as much as a four-wheeled buggy.
A good quality ATP will have a top suspension, pneumatic tyres and padding for the handle for your ease. It should also be equipped with the form of a car seat and carrycot so you can use it from the moment you are born.
MFM's reviewers have discovered that the 3-wheeler frame won't pass through all doors of their homes or small car boots - make sure to check the dimensions of the buggy when it's folded prior to purchasing in case you're concerned about space.
It's worth looking into a 3-wheeler that can take two (or even 3!) seats once your family grows. These are the most efficient of both and will help you save money in the future. The iCandy strawberry sport is one of the top of them; it can be used as a single unit from day dot and later converts to a twin buggies when your baby starts walking.
Tyres
These tyres cushion bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's ride more enjoyable. They are commonly included on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted’s Sport that MFM reviewer Kath said provided "an exceptional ride for her toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tires of the Phil & Ted's Sport made it easy for her to maneuver around the kerbs as well as other obstacles.
These tyres can be difficult to maintain and will require having their air pressure regularly topped up. These tyres are more susceptible to punctures, which is why you should always have a repair kit and spare inner tube when you're out and about.
PU tyres are typically used on pushchairs since they are less expensive than air-filled tyres, but they are equally robust. PU tires are easily distinguished by their matte finish and supple feel. They also glide well on even and tied surfaces.
It's usually possible to tell the distinction between air-filled and PU tires by running your hands over each one. If it feels hard then it's a rubber tyre, and if it slides then it's a PU. You can also test whether your buggy is equipped with PU tyres sliding them onto flat, clean surfaces. They should roll easily and fit comfortably into wheel hubs.
Foam tyres are often utilized in high-performance buggies and joggers because they can cope with the rough terrain associated with this type of pushchair. This could make your buggy less stable as the foam will lose its springy quality. These tyres are also noisy because they generate lots of noise when you turn and navigate around town.
