Three Wheeled Buggies

If you're seeking a buggy to run around in or a nifty stroller to tackle strolls around the neighborhood, three-wheeled buggies provide great mobility. Their compact design makes them easy to manoeuvre, even in tight spaces.

For an easy ride, opt for a pram fitted with air-filled tyres. Look for models with 360deg front swivel wheels. They are prone, however to punctures. Be prepared with an repair kit.

Sturdy frame

Figures have just been released showing that the three-wheeled buggy - that noughties symbol of more money than wisdom is in a decline. They are being replaced by four-wheelers which can handle a wider variety of terrain, while also looking elegant and easy to push.

The bigger the wheels are, the better your buggy can deal with bumpy surfaces and uneven pavements. The larger wheels on both the front and back also makes it much easier to manoeuvre and more stable when walking downhill or on difficult terrain.

MFM reviewer Kath tried this buggy out with a newborn and 3 year old and found it coped well with grass, cobbles, rough roads, dirt tracks, and kerbs. She noted that it was solid to push, and very solid on difficult terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable and require occasionally pumping) come with suspension built-in that 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. You will also want it to be able to recline so that they can lie flat. Some three-wheel buggies offer the option of lying flat that allows your child to lie flat and face you, while other buggies only permit a parent-facing option.

A great choice for tackling off-road or muddy walks is the Roma Atlas. It can be used as a single unit from the beginning and can be modified to take two children when your family grows. It is suitable for infants and toddlers from birth to age 4. It includes a bumper, raincover, an improved 5-point harness, and a huge cushioned seat. The storage options are great as well, with a large basket, zip pockets inside the hood, and an attractive pouch at the back of the seat unit.

Larger wheels

Larger wheels give your buggy more stability while driving over rough terrain. This is especially beneficial for buggies designed for off-road use. They also help you move the pushchair around tight spaces. Many three wheeled buggies have rotating front wheels that help you navigate around corners with ease, whereas others are designed for running and come with fixed front wheels that lock to improve the speed and stability at which they can be pushed. This is also useful if you crash into the kerb or a tree. The front wheel will lift slightly to keep it from hitting it.

A lot of 3 wheeled pushchairs come with air-filled tyres that allow them to handle a wide range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They also tend to be lighter. However, they're prone to punctures so you'll need to keep an repair kit, spare inner tube and pump handy.

Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both of these buggies come with larger wheels that, as per MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on gravel tracks, grass and market town cobbles" and can easily go up and down kerbs. The buggies also come with a suspension that Kath says "smooths out bumps with great efficiency".

The downside of having bigger wheels is that they make some buggies quite wide and may struggle to squeeze through narrow spaces. This is an issue when you're using it for an exercise bike or to maneuver through doorways that are narrow when you're out and out and about. Many models have compact folding options, which permit you to take off the front wheels and store them in a more compact 3 wheel stroller manner.

Easy to Manoeuvre

One of the major advantages to a three wheel buggy is that it can be much more maneuverable especially with a child in tow. The way in which they are built means that the front wheels rotate at a whim and are really easy to manoeuvre and are ideal for tricky terrain like cobbles, parks and bumpy pavements as well as dirt tracks.

MFM reviewer Kath tried a 3-wheeler with her newborn and toddler and stated: "The Terrain was a pleasure to maneuver over tough terrain with the swivel rear wheel particularly useful. I was also amazed by how well it handled kerbs when using the hand-operated break. It was very stable in the downhills or on a rough terrain."

The only downside to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of the 3 wheel compact stroller wheel buggy can sometimes make it difficult to squeeze into tight spaces. This is something you should be aware of when your home is one of the cities. If this is an issue, a 4-wheeled buggy may be the better choice for you.

Bumper bar

Bumper bars can shield your child from scrapes and bumps when out and out and about. They are simple and quick to put in and will make your child feel secure and safe while out on the town or on the trail.

It is designed to complement the sleek lines of the sleek lines of your Slim Twin stroller, this bumper bar features a soft and cushioned surface that offers a comfortable place for your child to hold to during walks. The sturdy construction and durable design will ensure that your child can take a stroll around town without having to worry about falling out of the buggy or leaning too far forward.

The sling seat is snug inside the frame as opposed to sitting on top like modular seats, delivering the lower centre of gravity at the appropriate height for your newborn and also delivering excellent weight distribution for easy kerb pop (it takes much less effort to push a buggy up and over the curb than you think). MFM reviewer Kath said it was excellent on cobbles and grass. It's also a good alternative for running, thanks to its air-filled tyres and the lockable swivel wheel.

This bumper bar will turn heads wherever it is utilized. It has a classy and elegant look. Available in a variety of finishes and colours and designs, it can be tailored to fit your style. The bumper bar can be easily installed and removed with a quick-release mechanism. The bumper bar is also easy to clean, as it is constructed of durable materials. This makes it an excellent option for families who want a stylish and safe stroller accessory.

Kath the MFM reviewer, also loved the spaciousness of the buggy. There's a large easy-to-access basket that's quite spacious for a buggy of this size and there's a handy zipped pouch at the rear of the seat and even 2 smaller mesh pockets in the hood to store your phone and keys.
