3 Wheeled Buggies A 3-wheel buggy is perfect for off-roading and dealing with terrain, from bumpy pavements to woodland tracks. They are also more easy to maneuver up and down kerbs than 4-wheel models. MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these 3-wheelers with her newborn and 3 year old, putting it through its paces on road and on a rocky surface. Check out her review here. Stability With four wheels and a centre of gravity that's balanced by the weight of your child's seat, buggies with four wheels are generally considered to be more stable than three-wheelers. But that doesn't mean the three-wheel buggie isn't worth considering, since some of these models are designed to cope with everything from rough terrain to busy high-streets. If you want a buggie that is easy to control and will not be a problem on muddy roads, opt for one with big rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. These all-terrain buggies also come with pneumatic tires that are ideal for handling unpaved surfaces. They can be used on sandy beaches and tracks in woodlands. They are also great buggies to jog with because they provide great stability on rougher terrain and can help you stay with your running partner. They can also be used to go up and down steep kerbs and a lot of them have spring suspension built-in so that your child will enjoy a smooth ride. One thing that can make a 3-wheeled pushchair tricky to manoeuvre is the wide frame, which can make it difficult to squeeze into narrow spaces and tight doors than a four-wheeler. However certain manufacturers have addressed this issue by implementing an innovative design that makes the wheels flip up when not in use, which decreases their overall size and allows you get through doors easily. If so, check for a lie-flat location and also whether the design is compatible with second seats and buggy boards (if you want to add the toddler). Make sure that the buggy has a lie-flat feature and if it is compatible with a second seat as well as buggy boards, if you are planning to take your toddler along. A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat and be stood upright when collapsed and is handy if you have a small car boot or only a little storage space at home. However, some will require you to remove the front wheel before folding in order to fit into more compact space. Manoeuvrability Three-wheeled buggies are more movable than four-wheeled strollers. A majority of them have a swivelling wheels on the front which allows you to control and change direction with only one hand. Some also have a lockable front wheel that can provide security on more difficult terrain. Some models can be used with a second seat or buggy board if you're looking to grow your family. If you plan to take your three-wheeled buggies off the roads that are paved, you should choose one with pneumatic tyres. They can handle even the most difficult terrain. They may have to be pumped up from time to time, but they will be more durable and puncture-proof than solid tyres. Find a model with a an adjustable swivelling front wheel that locks to assist you in maneuvering difficult surfaces. When folded, three-wheelers can be more bulky than buggies with four wheels due to the single front wheel. Make sure the model you choose fits in the boot of your car and can be sat up should it be required. Certain models can fold in one hand, and they're freestanding when collapsed, which will save space in boot spaces that are smaller. A quality 3 wheel pushchair is able to cope with any terrain, from busy high streets to tracks through woodlands. But it's important to consider the purpose you'll use it for day-to-day. If you'll be doing the school run using it, it must be able handle sharp slopes and kerbs. If you're planning to run with it, make sure it has a swiveling'stretch front wheel' that is locked. This will keep the ride smooth. MFM reviewer Kath found her tri-wheeled buggy able to cope really well on both urban and countryside walks. She said it could navigate cobbles, rocky paths and uneven pavements effortlessly and was comfortable while jogging. It's also a great option for day trips as it has plenty of storage space, including a huge ample basket with a zip-top cover as well as an extendable 50+ UV hood. It can be adjusted to meet the needs of babies starting at birth, using a carry cot or lay-flat seat. 3 wheeler strollers is also compatible with the most well-known second seats and stroller boards. Fabric Sling Seat The main difference between a fabric and a modular seat is the fabric sling. It is placed inside the frame of the buggy as opposed to being placed on top of it like a modular chair. This allows for a more ergonomically-correct position for babies, which instantly delivers an lower centre of gravity and a more appropriate height. This results in a smoother push, a more light curb-pop (you do not have to exert as much effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and increased stability and balance. The sling fabrics used in these kinds of seats are very hard-wearing and easy to clean. Developed specifically with the use of sling chairs in mind These fabrics are extremely UV-resistant and extremely breathable. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water. If you're a jogger or enjoy a bit of off-roading, an all-terrain 3 wheeler could be more suitable than a 4-wheel buggy. These models generally have a larger base, more stable and utilise tyres with air to allow for smooth and agile movement on rough ground. A brand most well-known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added the latest 3-wheeler to its range with the Stella. This all-terrain buggy boasts an impressive huge and spacious travel system seat unit that can be a world-facing or parent-facing and reclines flat using an upgraded 5-point safety harness. It can be used with car seats or a carrycot from birth. It comes with an enormous shopping basket. This luxury 3 wheeler made for the most discerning buggy owner is as stunning to admire as it is functional.

It features a spacious, padded seat which can be placed either with the parent or world facing. It also has an improved 5-point harness and a complete set of rain covers. Modular Seat Modular seating can be configured in many ways to accommodate different seating needs. Modular seating can be easily adjusted to create a relaxing setting for watching movies, or a large arrangement to entertain guests. Many modular seating systems also come with removable cushion covers which make it easier to wash spills and stains. Modular Seating can be designed to blend with existing decors or stand out as an accent piece. A broad range of color, fabric and shape options ensures that you can find a modular seating solution that suits your style. Modular seating also has a variety of practical features, like hidden storage compartments for easy organizing. 3-wheel buggies are especially suitable for off-road and all-terrain adventures because they offer more stability than 4-wheel strollers. The large front wheel that is extremely maneuverable allows for smooth and swift movement. The tyres, which are typically air-filled and come with suspension, give you a great ride on the most difficult trails and roads. The wheels are not as close to the ground on these pushchairs, as they are with 4 wheeled pushchairs. This makes them ideal for walking uphill. Parents who love to run and jog with their kids usually opt for strollers with three wheels because they are more agile and sleeker than their 4-wheel counterparts. The GB Upp XL, for example, has an elegant burnished aluminum frame that has a simple one-handed fold as well as forward-facing and rear-facing seats. The Babyzen Yoyo, on the other hand, comes with black frames with an infant carrycot that can be set in a full lie-flat position and air-filled tyres. Mountain Buggy Sport verso is another great all-terrain option. It's extremely light and extremely maneuverable, as well as fashionable. This buggy will last you from birth, with the carrycot included, to toddlerhood, with the seat that is modular. All of this is done within the footprint of just one buggy.
