3 Wheeled Buggies A 3-wheeler can be used for off-road walking and to tackle terrain from bumpy pavements or woodland tracks. They can also be easier to manoeuvre up and down kerbs than 4-wheel models. MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these three-wheelers while with her newborn and three year old daughter, putting it through its paces on the road and on a rocky surface. Read her review here. Stability Four-wheel buggies with their centre of gravity balancing by the weight of your child in the seat, are typically more stable than three-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are still worth considering as they can take on anything from rough terrain to busy streets. If you want a buggie that is easy to handle and won't fall over on bumpy pavements, look for a model with large rear wheels and an adjustable front wheel that locks. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires, which are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces. They can be used on sandy beaches and tracks through woodlands. These are also the best buggies for running with, since they provide excellent stability over rougher ground and aid in keeping up with your running partner. They're also excellent at going up and down steep kerbs too and a majority come with a suspension built in that ensures your child will have a pleasant ride. A stroller with three wheels can be difficult to maneuver due to its wide frame. It can be more difficult to get through narrow spaces and doorways than a 4-wheeler. However some manufacturers have solved this issue with a clever design that makes the wheels turn up when not in use, which decreases their overall size and helps you to get through doorways easily. It's also important to consider whether your buggy is suitable for your little one from birth, or if you're planning on using it with an infant car seat or carry cot. Make sure that the buggy has the ability to lie flat, and if it's compatible with second seat and buggy boards, if you are planning to take a toddler along. Many 3-wheelers can fold flat, and then be placed upright. This is great when you have a small boot space or have limited storage at home. However, some require you to take out the front wheel prior to folding if you want it to fit into even smaller spaces. Manoeuvrability Three-wheeled buggies are more movable than strollers with four wheels. Many of them have an swivelling wheel at the front that allows you to steer and change direction using just one hand. Some models also have a lockable front wheel which can give you stability on rougher terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional buggy or seat, in case you want to expand your family. If you're considering taking your three-wheeled vehicle off of roads, you should consider selecting a model equipped with tyres filled with air (also called pneumatic tyres) which can cope with the most difficult terrain. 3 wheel pushchair might need to be pumped up from time to intervals, but they'll be more durable and puncture-proof than solid tyres. Find a model with a the ability to lock the swivelling wheel on the front to aid you in navigating difficult surfaces. Having a single front wheel could mean that three-wheelers tend to be more bulkier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Check that the model you select fits in your car's boot and can be positioned upright if required. Some models fold using one hand, and they can be rearranged when folded. This can save space in a small car boot. A quality three-wheel pushchair will handle most terrains, from busy streets to forest tracks. It is important to consider the way you'll use it every day. If you're planning to run the school run, it ought to be able to handle steep kerbs and slopes. If you'll be jogging with it, check that it has an adjustable lockable swivelling'stretch' for the front wheel to keep the ride steady. Kath the MFM reviewer, found that her stroller with three wheels was able to handle both urban and walks in the countryside. She said it was able to negotiate cobbles, rocky paths and bumpy pavements effortlessly and was comfortable when running. It is also a good choice for day trips as it is packed with storage space. It comes with an ample, spacious zip-top basket that is covered and an expandable 50+ UV hood. It is also able to be adapted 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 key difference between a fabric sling versus a modular seats is that the fabric sling sits in the frame of the buggy instead of sitting on top of it as a modular seat would. This enables a much more ergonomically correct position for baby, which instantly delivers an lower centre of gravity and a more appropriate height. This in turn makes for an easier push, a lighter curb pop (you don't need as much weight and effort to pop the buggy over the nose of a curb) and better stability and balance. These buggy seats also feature sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. Made specifically for the use of sling chairs in mind, these fabrics are incredibly UV resistant and extremely breathable. They are also easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water. If you're a jogger or you like off-roading then an all-terrain buggy is more suited to your requirements than a four-wheeler. These types tend to have a wider base, more stable and utilise tyres with air to allow for smooth and agile moving on uneven ground.

The large, highly maneuverable front wheel allows for smooth and quick movement. The tyres, which are typically filled with air and have suspension, give you a great ride on the most difficult roads and trails. The wheels are not as close to the ground on these pushchairs as they are on four wheeled pushchairs. This makes them ideal for walking uphill. Parents who love to run and jog with their children typically opt for 3-wheel strollers because they are more nimble and sleeker than their four-wheel counterparts.
