Three Wheeled Buggies

Whether you're looking for a buggy to run with or just a compact stroller for neighbourhood walks, three wheeled buggies are great for mobility. Their compact design makes them easy to manoeuvre even in tight areas.

For an easy ride, opt for a pram with air-filled tyres and look for models with 360deg front swivel wheels. They are susceptible, however to punctures. Make sure you have an repair kit.

Frame made of sturdy material

New figures show that the three-wheeled buggies, the emblem of the noughties, which were more expensive than common sense, are in a steep decline. Four-wheelers are replacing them, and are more flexible and simple to drive while still looking fashionable.

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

MFM reviewer Kath tried this buggy on a newborn baby and a 3 wheel push chair-year-old child and found it to be extremely sturdy. It was able to withstand grass, cobbles and rough pavements, as well as dirt tracks and kerbs. Kath wrote "it is sturdy to push and is very stable when going over difficult terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable so need occasionally pumping) come with suspension built-in, which was very comfortable for my kids.

The size and shape of the seat is a further factor to think about. It is important for the seat to be big enough to allow your child to be at ease and to lie down. Some three-wheel buggies have a lie-flat option that allows the child to face you, while others only allow a parent-facing one.

The Roma Atlas is a great option for off-road and wet walks. It can be used as a one-person unit from birth, and then expands to accommodate two children as your family grows. It is suitable for infants and toddlers from birth to age 4 and comes with a bumper with a rain cover, an upgraded 5-point harness, and a huge cushioned seat. Storage options are also a plus with a large basket, zip pockets on the hood, and a handy pouch at the rear of seat unit.

Larger wheels

Larger wheels give your buggy greater stability when driving on rough terrain. This is especially beneficial for buggies designed for off-road use. They also help you maneuver the pushchair in tight spaces. Some three-wheeled buggies come with swivel wheels on the front, which assist you in navigating tight corners. Others are designed for running and have fixed wheels that lock to provide increased speed and stability. This can also help in the event that you hit the roots of a tree or stray curb, since the front wheel will lift up slightly to prevent you from hitting it.

Many 3 wheeled pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which allows them to handle a wide range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They are also lighter. They are more prone to punctures, so you'll require an repair kit and spare inner tubes on hand.

Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both buggies feature larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on grass, gravel tracks and market town cobbles" and are able to effortlessly go up and down kerbs. They also have a suspension system that in her words "smoothes out bumps with great efficiency".

The drawback of having larger wheels is that they make some buggies quite broad and may struggle to squeeze through narrow spaces. This can be a problem if you use it as a jogger or have to squeeze through narrow doorways while on the move. Luckily, most models have compact folding options that let you remove the front wheels to make compact storage.

Easy to Manoeuvre

A three-wheeler can be more maneuverable for children. They are designed to ensure that the front wheels be turned on a dime and are easy to navigate, making them ideal for difficult terrain like cobblestones, parks, bumpy roads, and dirt tracks.

MFM reviewer Kath tested a 3 wheeler with her infant and toddler and wrote: "The Terrain was a delight to maneuver on the ground and the swivel front wheel particularly useful. I was also impressed with the way it handled kerbs when using the hand-operated break. It was extremely stable when in the downhills or on uneven terrain."

The only drawback to this incredible maneuverability is that the larger wheels of a 3 wheel buggy might make it difficult to fit into tight spaces. This is something you need to be aware of when your home is an urban area. If this is a problem, a 4-wheeled buggy may be a better option for you.

Bumper bar

Bumper bars are the perfect way to protect your little one from scrapes and bumps while out and about. They are simple and quick to put up and help your child feel safe and secure while out on the town or taking on tough terrain.

It is designed to complement the sleek lines of the sleek lines of your Slim Twin stroller, this bumper bar is a soft and cushioned surface that provides a comfortable place for your child to hang onto during walks. The durable construction and sturdy design ensure that your child can enjoy strolling around town without fearing of falling out of the buggy or leaning too far ahead.

The sling seat made of fabric sits snug inside the frame instead of on top of it like modular seats, delivering the lower centre of gravity at the right height for your infant and also providing great weight distribution for a simple kerb pop (it requires less effort to push the buggy over and up a curb than you think). MFM reviewer Kath said it was great on grass and cobbles. It's also a good alternative for running, thanks to its tyres that are filled with air and a lockable swivel wheel.

With a chic and sophisticated appearance this bumper bar is sure to turn heads wherever you go. Available in a range of finishes and colours, it can be customized to match your style. It features a simple, quick-release mechanism that makes it easy to install and remove the bumper bar when needed. The bumper bar is easy to clean, as it is constructed from sturdy materials. This makes it a good choice for families looking for an elegant and safe stroller accessory.

Comfort

A 3-wheel buggy offers the highest level of maneuverability and performance when going off-road. This type of buggy is easy to steer and turn in a flash thanks to its perfect geometry, engineering, and weight distribution.

With a fabric sling seat placed snugly within the frame rather than over it like modular seats, the Sport's smart design allows it to have a lower center of gravity, which is at the ideal level for your child - providing you with a smoother push, a less hefty curb pop (you don't need the same amount of weight or effort to pop the nose of your buggy up and over the curb) and better stability and balance. With 16" rear wheels, the lockable front wheel, and air-filled tyres, you can enjoy an easier, more comfortable jog.

The only stroller that is all-terrain in our collection that has an adult-facing seat that can also accept a car seat or carrycot, you can future-proof your family to enjoy every adventure from the first day and for years to come!

It's not the only reason to love this buggy - our MFM reviewer Kath was amazed by how big it is, too. There's a nimble large, spacious basket that's surprising spacious for a vehicle of this size. There's also an excellent pouch on the back seat unit, and two smaller mesh pockets beneath the hood to keep your keys and phone.
