3 Wheeled Buggies

MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these three-wheelers while with her newborn and 3 year old, putting it through its paces on the tarmac and on tricky ground. Read her review here.
Stability
With four wheels and a central point 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 triwheelers. Three-wheel buggies are nevertheless worth considering as they can handle everything from rough terrain to busy streets.
For a buggy that’s really easy to control and won’t let you down on bumpy roads, look for a model with large rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires, which are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces. They are able to be used even on sandy beaches or tracks in woodlands.
These are also the best buggies for running around in, as they provide great stability over rougher ground and help you keep up with your running partner. They can also go up and down steep kerbs and many come with built-in spring suspension so your baby can enjoy a smooth ride.
The main thing that makes a 3-wheeled pushchair tricky to maneuver is the large frame, which makes it harder to fit through tight spaces and narrow doorways than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have addressed this problem with an innovative design that flips the wheels up when they are not being used. This reduces their size and makes it easier to maneuver through doors.
If so, check for a lie-flat positioning and if the design is compatible with second seats and buggy boards (if you’d like to add an infant onboard). If so, check for the ability to lie flat and if the design is compatible with second seats and buggy boards (if you’re planning to put a toddler onboard). A majority of 3-wheelers can fold flat and be stacked upright. This is a great option when you have a small boot space or a small amount of storage space at home. Some 3-wheelers require you remove the front wheel in order to fold them into smaller sizes.
Manoeuvrability
Three-wheeled buggies typically offer better manoeuvrability than four-wheeled pushchairs. They often come with a swivelling front wheel that allows you to change direction quickly and steer using just one hand. Some also have a lockable front wheel which gives you the stability you need on rough terrain. Some models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board, if you plan to expand your family.
If you’re thinking of taking your three-wheeled bike off the paved tracks, it’s worth selecting a model equipped with tyres filled with air (also known as pneumatic tyres) which can cope with the toughest terrain. These tyres may need to be pumped up from time to the point, but they will be more durable and puncture-proof compared to solid tyres. You should look for one with an adjustable front wheel that can be locked to help you navigate tricky surfaces.
A single front wheel can also be a reason that three-wheelers tend to be bulkier than four-wheeled buggies when folded. Make sure the model you choose can fit in the boot of your vehicle and can be sat up if necessary. Some models can be folded with one hand and can be raised when folded. This can save space in the boot of your car.
A good three-wheel pushchair can be used on all terrains from busy roads to forest tracks. However, it is important to consider what you’ll be using it for day-to-day. If you’ll be doing the school run, it should be able to handle steep kerbs and slopes. If you’re planning to run on it, ensure it has a swivelling’stretch front wheel’ that can be locked. This will help keep the ride in place.

Fabric Sling Seat
The primary difference between a seat made of fabric and a modular one is the fabric sling. It sits inside the frame of the buggy, rather than being positioned on top of it like an adjustable chair. This makes it easier to maintain an ergonomically correct position of the baby, leading to a lower center of gravity that is the ideal height. This results in a smoother push, a lighter curb-pop (you do not have to exert the same effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and more stability and balance.
