Three Wheeled Buggies
If you're seeking a buggy to run around in or a stroller that can be used for neighbourhood walks, three wheeled buggies provide great mobility. Their compact design makes them easy to manoeuvre, even in tight spaces.
For a smooth ride, go for a pram fitted with air-filled tyres. Look for models with a 360deg front swivel wheel. They are prone, however to punctures. Be prepared with an emergency repair kit.
Sturdy frame
New data show that three-wheeled buggies, the symbol of the noughties that had more money than common sense, are in a steep decline. Four-wheelers have replaced them, which are more versatile and easier to drive while still looking elegant.
The principle is that the larger the wheels, the easier it will be for your buggy to deal with rough ground and bumpy pavements. The larger wheels, both front and rear allow you to move and more stable when walking downhill or on difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tried the buggy with a newborn as well as a 3 year old and found that it was able to handle grass, cobbles rough roads, dirt tracks and kerbs. She said that it felt sturdy to push, and very stable on difficult terrain. Its tyres, which are inflatable and need to be pumped up regularly they have suspension built-in. It was extremely comfortable for my children.
Another thing to consider is the size and shape. The seat should be large enough to allow your child to feel at ease and to lie down. Some three-wheel buggies offer the option of lying flat, which allows your child to lie flat and face you, whereas others only allow a parent-facing one.
A great choice for tackling off-road and muddy walks is the Roma Atlas. It can be used as a one-person unit from birth and then adapts to accommodate two children as your family expands. It is suitable for infants and toddlers from birth until age 4. It comes with a bumper with a rain cover, an upgraded 5-point harness, and a big padded seat. Storage options are also good with a large basket, zip pockets on the hood and a handy pouch on the rear of the seat unit.
Larger wheels
Larger wheels will give your buggy more stability while driving on rough terrain. This is perfect for buggies designed for off-road use. Additionally, they make it easier to manoeuvre the pushchair through narrow spaces. Many three wheeled buggies have rotating front wheels that assist you in maneuvering around tight corners, whereas others are designed for running and have fixed front wheels that lock to increase the speed and stability with which they can be driven. This also helps in the event that you hit a tree root or stray road, as the front wheel will rise up slightly to prevent you from hitting it.
Many 3 wheeled pushchairs have air-filled tyres which allow them to navigate a wide range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They are also lighter. They are also more susceptible to punctures, so you'll need to have a repair kit and spare inner tube in your arsenal.
Mountain Buggy Core, Venicci Carbo and the Venicci Carbo lux are some of our favourite best lightweight 3 wheel stroller-wheelers. 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 are able to effortlessly go up and down kerbs. They also come with a suspension system that according to her "smoothes out bumps with great efficiency".
The downside of having larger wheels is that they can make some buggies quite broad and can struggle to fit through narrow spaces. This is problematic if you intend to are using it as a jogger, or need to fit through narrow doorways while on the move. Many models have compact folding options that let you remove the front wheels and store them more compactly.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the major advantages of a three-wheel buggy is that it's much more maneuverable especially with a child in the back. They are designed so that the front wheels can turn on a dime, and are easy to maneuver, making them perfect for terrains that are difficult, such as cobblestones, parks, bumpy roads, and dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tried a 3-wheeler with her toddler, and she reported: "The Terrain is a delight to navigate on uneven terrain. The swivel wheel front was especially useful." I was also awed by the way it handled bumps, particularly when using the hand-operated brake. I found it extremely steady when I was driving downhill or over uneven ground."
The only drawback to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of a 3 wheeler buggy wheel buggy can sometimes make it difficult to fit into tight spaces. This is something you should keep in mind when your home is a city. If this is the case, a 4-wheeled buggy may be a better option for you.
Bumper bar
Bumper bars are the ideal way to protect your little one from scrapes and bumps while out and about. They are easy and quick to put in and will make your child feel safe and secure while out on the town or on the trail.

The sling seat made of fabric sits in the frame, snugly rather than sitting on top like modular seats, delivering the lowest centre of gravity at the ideal height for your infant and also delivering great weight distribution for a simple kerb pop (it requires less effort to push the buggy up and over a curb than you think).
