Why Buy a 3 Wheeler Buggy?
A three-wheel buggy is a great option for those who love running in the morning. They have larger wheels which give a smoother ride, however, they are heavier to store and require a larger car boot.
If you want to use your pushchair for outdoor walks, consider models with air-filled tires (also known by the name pneumatic). They can be used on rough terrain and come with a a front wheel that can be locked to ensure more stability.
What is a 3 wheel reversible stroller wheeler buggy?
No matter if you're driving off road or around town, a 3-wheel buggy provides the best maneuverability. They are able to turn at any time and are easy to handle, passing stringent stability tests. A fabric sling seat is in the frame with a comfortable fit, rather than on top 3 wheel strollers of it like modular seats - this design has lower center of gravity, which makes it easier to push and less slams on curbs (you don't have to put as much weight or effort into launching your buggy off the curb). Mountain Buggy(r) even has the first of its kind: sport verso(tm) with a 3 wheel travel stroller wheeled inline chassis that grows with your family - from parent face infant carrier to toddler ride-on board.
Are you going to go 'off road'?
It's crucial for those who love to travel off-road and are more adventurous than their buggy can handle rough terrain. You need a sturdy suspension system to take the impact of bumps, and big wheels that have air-filled tyres that provide excellent grip on rough surfaces. A lockable front wheel is also a great feature to ensure stability while running on harder surfaces.
MFM reviewer Kath really put this fun-loving buggy to the test when driving it across rough cobbles, grass and dirt tracks with her infant and 3 year old. She said "it did everything without difficulty and was even enjoyable to jog in with. The rear wheels are 16 inches and lockable'swivel' front wheel give great stability when tackling roadsides or uneven surfaces, and the tyres have built-in suspension for smooth riding."
Sport verso is another world-first. It's a fantastic single buggy, however it can easily be adapted to take two (or more!) when your family grows all within the footprint of one buggy! The fabric sling seat sits comfortably inside the frame at the right height for optimal weight distribution. It is instantly giving you a much more comfortable push, a less hefty curb pop and better maneuverability across any terrain.
Do you want to 'do some sightseeing Do you want to 'go around town'?
A 3-wheel buggy has one wheel in front and two wheels at the back and, depending on the model, the wheel will be swivel freely or fixed in position so that the buggy travels in straight lines. Their USP is that they are incredibly manoeuvrable and easy to steer and are often equipped with suspension (which can be handy for difficult terrain) and air-filled tyres so the ride is soft and comfortable. They are ideal for everyday use in the city and are able to handle kerb-popping as well as taking off road.
However, just like any buggy, it is essential to drive responsibly and to not be distracted by the mobile phone, tablet or other electronic device. Avoid driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol as this can affect your judgment and reaction time. If you do have an automobile boot to store your buggy make sure you check the dimensions of its footprint when fully folded so that it will fit inside your car.
If you are looking for a buggy that can transport you from the park to shops then make sure you choose one with large shopping baskets and great features like a padded handle, strong brake pedal (that can stop when it hits an upward slope) and a huge and extendable 50+ sun canopy. MFM reviewer Kath particularly liked the fabric sling seat which features an automatic lie-flat baby bed, and found the seat to be placed perfectly within the frame for good weight distribution - but she also noted that the triangular shape of the frame does mean half as much storage space as the four wheeler.
Are you looking to visit the park'
This 3-wheeler is perfect for urban adventures, too, thanks to its incredible maneuverability. MFM reviewer Kath put it to the test and discovered it was able to navigate cobbles, and bumpy pavements easily. It also was able to take on the city's kerbs because the seat sling made of fabric is positioned snugly within the frame at the perfect height to distribute weight.
This model is great for jogging too as it can be fitted with lockable swivel front wheels and a'snug and stretch' tyre that gives a really smooth ride when you're running around the streets. The only downside to the big wheels is that it may struggle to fit into some more compact spaces when folded. It has many impressive storage features that are worth it! It has a large basket and a rear zip up pocket.
