3 wheel pushchair with car seat Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies are stylish and sleek, with excellent maneuverability. Many of these feature seats made of fabric that have a cosy lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution, perfect from birth.

The wheels are larger and often have suspension to allow for smooth, fluid mobility on various terrains. The only drawback to these wheels is that they can be heavier and bulkier to transport and store.

Stability

Three wheel buggies (schwartz-josephsen.federatedjournals.com) are remarkably stable - they don't tip over as easily as pushchairs with four wheels when they're in a straight line and you'll be able to manoeuvre them much more quickly and efficiently. However, if you attempt to turn or stop suddenly they'll lose stability and may tip over. For this reason, certain manufacturers add an extra wheel to their three wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.

The additional wheel also allows you to tackle off-road terrain. Look out for models with air-filled tyres (also called pneumatic tyres) as they are able to deal with off-road paths as well as other surfaces such as rocks, sand, and mud. These models will also have wheels that lock in the front to improve stability on rough terrain.

Buggies are easy to maneuver and agile thanks to the 360o front swivel wheel. They also meet the same stability standards globally and tests as buggies with four wheels.

If you are in the market for a seat made of fabric, these tend to be lower in the frame compared to modular seats. This means that your baby's center of gravity will be closer to the ground, instantly ensuring an easier ride.

Popular for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added an ultra-light travel system and pushchair to its product line with the eye-catching Citylife. The model is designed for urban living and can be used from birth with a newborn car seat or carrycot for infants. It has four wheels and has a unique pewter black aluminium frame, which the brand claims is 'slim and compact' - it's only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are a lot of three wheel buggies that can be folded in a compact way to can be tucked away in smaller spaces. They can be folded with one hand and are easy to wipe down. Some of the smaller models come with a simple handlebar height adjustment, whereas others come with adjustable suspensions and an ultraviolet canopy of 50+ that can be extended. They could also come with large, spacious baskets and a brake lever that is quick-release.

The best 3 wheeler for rough terrain

A 3 wheeler buggies-wheeled buggy is usually better equipped to handle off-road terrain when compared to a four-wheeled model however both can get stuck on tight corners. However, choosing a model with bigger wheels on both sides can help. This makes them easier to push over rough ground and is often helpful in moving up and down the high kerbs.

The brand new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its remarkable agility despite its 3 wheel stroller travel system-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath used it with her infant and her 3-year-old, and said "it handles really well over bumpy pavements, cobbles gravel tracks and dirt roads and also on some hills."

Stella, the new 3-wheel all-terrain buggy from Maxi-Cosi, is another option. It is suitable from birth when used with a carrycot. It's slightly bigger than the lightweight 4-wheelers, however, it comes with air-filled tires and three recline positions and a one-handed fold.

Its primary selling point is its modularity - it's compatible with all of the brands' baby strollers and car seats. You can design your own travel system, no matter if you want to go on a short walk or a longer one by using the chassis.

Tyres

The tyres on 3 wheel buggies are available in a range of styles and materials, and each comes with its pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer a great performance and maneuverability, whereas foam-filled tyres are more durable. The type of tyre you select will be determined by your lifestyle and where you live.

If you intend to travel on roads that are not paved or in rough terrain frequently, you might be interested in a three-wheeler equipped with more robust tyres. Consider the type of suspension you require. Strong suspensions are useful to deal with humps and bumps but they can be heavy, adding to the overall weight.

Another aspect to be considered is the tyre's size. Understanding how to determine the sizing of a tyre is essential for maintaining safety, performance, and durability. The combination of letters and numbers on a tyre sidewall may seem confusing, but once you decode it, you will be able to understand the tyre dimensions. A tyre that has an 185/70 size R14 for instance is a radial tire in the 185/70 size with 14-inch rim diameter.

PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you're unsure if the pushchair you are using has rubber or PU tires, try sliding the tires over a smooth and tied surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made of PU. If not, then they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an essential component to look for because it will absorb the bumps and knocks of rough terrain, making it more comfortable for your child. Large wheels which are filled with air and are lockable to ensure stability while jogging is essential to ensure that your buggy will be able to navigate off road surfaces easily.

There are many choices for buggy styles to suit every budget and lifestyle. For example the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility in a three-wheel buggie. With an engineering and geometry that is perfect, their fabrics sling seat rests comfortably inside the frame as opposed to on top like modular seats, resulting in an lower center of gravity and sitting at the right height for the best weight distribution, allowing it to easily take on kerb pops.

The Urban Glide 2 by Thule is another excellent option. It features sleek design, a large wheel that is easy to maneuver and comes with a superb suspension. It also features an adjustable handbrake that can be turned to make it easier of use. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy to the test by taking it for an excursion through the rough terrain and she was impressed with how it handled the terrain really well. She said that it 'flies effortlessly over bumpy grass, cobbles, roads, dirt tracks and even can be a breeze climbing and descending kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas is another popular off road option and similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes in a range of colours to match your style. It also features an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket, and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also choose from a variety of infant car seats that convert the buggy into a pram, including the chicly designed carrycot plus(tm) which is a comfy lie-flat crib for babies and infants from 12 months to 12 years old.

Safety

Four wheels make the buggy more stable, less likely to tip and easier to handle. It also makes it more secure for your child since the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame.

A four-wheeled vehicle has a lower center of gravity, making it easier to climb over curbs and get up. The fabric sling seat sits within the frame, not over it as modular seats do, which creates a low seating position and a lighter buggy that is easily maneuvered.

If you're looking to run with your child, then an all-wheeler is the best option. It has a suspension system that allows the front wheel to be independent from the rear facing 3 wheel stroller. This allows you to tackle rough terrains or bumpy roads. However there are some limitations to 4 wheel buggies can be used for running. The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially designed suspension system that has been independently tested on all types of terrain.
