3 Wheeled Buggies

A 3 wheel compact stroller-wheeler is ideal for off-road walking & taking on terrains, from bumpy pavements to woodland tracks. They are also simpler to navigate on kerbs, and they are less prone to slipping down when compared to 4-wheel models.

Kath, the editor of MadeForMums reviews, tried one of these three-wheelers on tarmac and on various terrains. You can read her full review here.

Stability

With four wheels and a center of gravity that is balanced by the weight of your child's seat, 4-wheel buggies are generally considered to be more stable than three-wheelers. However, that doesn't mean an older model with three wheels isn't worth considering, since the majority of them are built to cope with everything from rough terrain to busy high streets.

Choose a buggy that has large rear wheels, and a lockable wheel on the front. This will make it easier to drive and less likely to snap apart when you're on bumpy roads. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires that are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces. They are able to be used even on sandy beaches or tracks in woodlands.

They are also excellent buggies to run with as they provide excellent stability in rough terrain and can aid you in staying with your running companion. They're also good at climbing and down steep kerbs as well, and most of them come with suspension built-in which means your child will have a pleasant ride.

The one thing that makes a 3-wheeled pushchair difficult to maneuver is the broad frame, which makes it harder to fit through narrow and tight doors than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have solved this problem with a clever design which flips the wheels up when they are not being used. This reduces their size and makes it easier to fit through doorways.

You'll also need to consider whether the buggy you choose to use is suitable for your child from birth, or if you're thinking of using it with an infant car seat or carry cot. If so, make sure it has an upright position and if the design is compatible with other seats and buggy boards (if you're planning to put an infant onboard). Many 3-wheelers can fold flat and be stacked upright. This is great for those with a small boot space or a small amount of storage space at home. However, some will require you to take out the front wheel before folding if you want it to fit into even more compact spaces.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled buggies typically provide better maneuverability than four-wheeled pushchairs. A majority of them have a swivelling wheel on the front that allows you to steer and change direction using one hand. Some models have a lockable wheel that can provide stability on rougher terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board in case you want to expand your family.

If you plan to take your three-wheeled buggies off the roads that are paved, you should choose a model with pneumatic tyres. They can handle even the most difficult terrain. They will require pumping up occasionally but they'll be more durable than solid tyres and are more likely to be puncture-proof. You should choose models with an swiveling front wheel that can be locked to assist you in navigating tricky surfaces.

The fact that there is only one front wheel could indicate that three-wheelers can be bulkier than four-wheeled buggies when folded. Check that your chosen model can fit into the boot of your car and can be stood up, if needed. Some models can be folded with just one hand, and they're freestanding when they're collapsed, which can make them more compact in boot spaces that are smaller.

A good 3 wheel pushchair will be able to deal with any terrain, from busy streets to woodland tracks. It's important to consider how you will use it every day. If you'll be doing the school run, it ought to be able to handle steep slopes and kerbs. If you intend to jog on it, ensure it has a swivelling "stretch front wheel' that can be locked. This will keep the ride in place.

Kath the MFM reviewer, discovered that her three-wheeled stroller was able to handle both urban and walks in the countryside. She noted that it could navigate rocky paths, cobbles and bumpy pavements easily and was comfortable to jog with. It's also a great choice for day trips, since it has plenty of storage space, including a huge, spacious basket with zip-top cover and an expandable 50+ UV hood. It can also be modified to accommodate babies from birth using an adjustable seat that can be sat on or a carry cot, as well as being compatible with most popular second-seats and buggy boards.

Fabric Sling Seat

The primary distinction between a fabric seat and a modular seat is the fabric sling. It sits inside the frame of the buggy instead of being placed on top of it like an adjustable chair. This allows for a more comfortable and ergonomically-correct position for the baby, which results in a lower center of gravity that is just the right height. This leads to a smoother push, a less hefty curb-pop (you do not have to exert as much effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and improved balance and stability.

These seats also have sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. Developed specifically with applications for sling chairs in mind, these fabrics are incredibly UV-resistant and air-tight. They are also easy to maintain using mild soap and warm water.

If you're a jogger or enjoy a bit of off-roading, a all terrain 3 wheeler could be more suitable than a 4-wheel buggy. These types tend to have a wider, more stable base and utilise air filled tyres to allow for smooth and agile moving on uneven ground.

Modular Seat

Modular seating can be used to create a wide range of configurations to suit different seating requirements. Modular seating can be easily adjusted to create a cozy place to watch films, or an open layout to entertain guests. A lot of modular seating systems include cushions that can be removed which makes it easy to clean spills or stain.

Modular Seating is available in various designs to complement your current decor or as an accent piece. A broad range of fabrics, colors and shape options ensures that you can find a modular seating solution that suits your style. Modular seating also comes with many practical features, like hidden storage compartments for easy storage.

3-wheel buggies are more stable than 4-wheel strollers, making them ideal for off-road or all terrain adventures. The large, extremely maneuverable front wheel allows for a quick and smooth motion, while the tyres are generally air-filled and feature suspension, providing an excellent ride on even the most difficult trails and roads. They're also great for walking up hills as the wheels aren't as close ground as they are on four wheel pushchairs.

Often 3-wheel prams are popular choice for parents who enjoy running and jogging with their children, as they provide excellent agility and are more streamlined than their 4 wheel counterparts. The GB Upp XL for example has a sleek burnished silver aluminum frame, a quick one-hand fold and forward and rear facing seats, while the Babyzen Yoyo has an all black frame, a carrycot that has a full lie flat position with air-filled tyres as well as 3 wheel double buggy recline positions.
