Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?
3-wheelers are renowned for being durable and hardwearing. The MB Mini is now owned by Phil & Teds features a lockback or full swivel wheel to easily pop-up curbs, and features a simple one-hand folding. Suitable from birth with the carrycot and (a comfortable lie-flat baby bed), it also converts into an active double buggy.
Easy to manoeuvre
When you choose a 3 wheeled buggy, you’re choosing flexibility and lightness of handling. This style of pushchair has a single wheel at the front and two wheels at the back, which makes them really easy to turn on the sixpence and navigate over bumps or high kerbs easily.
Find a buggy that has pneumatic tyres and an excellent suspension if you intend to take it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath said she was “really amazed by how well it coped with off-road walking and challenging terrain” adding “it handled grass, cobbles bumpy pavements and dirt tracks very well, and it was a breeze to navigate up and down kerbs.”
If you are looking to purchase a 3-wheeled buggy for your newborn, make sure that the fabric sling is in the direction of the parent. You could also consider an adjustable model that can be used as a carrycot, infant car seat or a comfy, flat bed like Mountain Buggy’s carrycot plus, (which provides a cozy lay-flat bed that is certified to sleep overnight) or Sport Verso (which grows with your child, starting from day dot to modular seat with a fabric seat). All of their 3 Wheel All terrain buggy-wheel buggies meet the same safety standards and stability tests as their four-wheel models! To give you even more stability, they have a 16″ rear wheel that has a lockable swivel front that’s perfect for jogging. You can stay fit while pushing your children.
Folding is simple
Many buggy brands have come up with strollers and buggies that are lightweight and fold easily. This is especially true for 3 wheel buggies. The buggy can be folded into half easily using a simple one-handed mechanism. This makes it easier to store it in a small car boot or a cabinet at home. Many of these lightweight stroller and buggy models come with a handy carry bag that makes it easier to carry your pushchair on the move.
Another benefit of 3-wheel buggys is their superior maneuverability on rough terrain. This is due to their superior engineering, geometry and weight distribution. The buggy often has large wheels both in the front and back, which is crucial for bumpy or rough pavements or roads. The wheels of the majority of 3 wheel buggies can be rotated, which provides more agility and allows you to easily control and steer the buggy on difficult surfaces.
This is the case for the brand-new 3 wheel travel stroller-wheel buggy named Sport(tm) which is a travel system that looks fantastic and is from a company better known for their car seats (Maxi Cosi). The carrycot is suitable for babies and children who are 3 years old. The all-terrain pushchair comes with impressive tires that are air-filled and so don’t need pumping. Kath was an MFM reviewer, was awed by its ability to navigate rough terrain. She noted that it “navigates smoothly over grass and cobbles, as well as bumpy surfaces effortlessly.”
Furthermore, this fashionable buggy offers a one-handed quick and compact fold as well as excellent storage options (including an ample basket and a convenient toddler ride-on board). It even comes with a changing set of LED Visibility lights that are simple to use, rechargeable, and will improve your visibility when you’re out and about.
Easy to store
