A 3-wheel buggy is utilized for off-road trails and for tackling terrain such as uneven paths or tracks in woodlands. They can also be easier to maneuver around kerbs than 4-wheel models.
MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these three-wheelers with her newborn and 3 year old, and put 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 weight of your child's seat, buggies with four wheels are generally considered to be more stable than three-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are still worthwhile to consider as they are able to take on anything from rough terrain to busy streets.
Find a buggie with large rear wheels, and one that locks on the front. This makes it more comfortable to drive and less likely to snap off when driving on rough roads. These buggies are typically equipped with pneumatic tyres too, which are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces and can be used on sandy beaches or woodland tracks.
They're also great buggies to jog with since they offer excellent stability on more rough terrain, and can aid you in staying with your running companion. They can also be used to go up and down steep kerbs and a lot of them have built-in spring suspension so your baby can enjoy an enjoyable ride.
The one thing that can make a 3 wheel parent facing pushchair-wheeled pushchair tricky to maneuver is the broad frame, which makes it difficult to squeeze through tight spaces and narrow doors than a four-wheeler. However certain manufacturers have addressed this issue with a clever design that makes the wheels flip up when they are not in use, which decreases their overall size and allows you navigate through doorways with ease.
It's also important to think about whether the buggy you choose to use is suitable for your little one from birth or if you're planning on using it with an infant car seat or carry cot. If so, ensure that it is in a lie-flat position and whether the design is compatible with second-seats and buggy boards (if you want to add the toddler to the buggy). A lot of 3 wheel double buggy-wheelers fold flat, and later be stacked upright. This is a good option when you have a small boot space or a small amount of storage space at home. However, some require you to remove the front wheel before folding if you want it to fit into smaller space.
Manoeuvrability
Three-wheeled buggies are more movable than strollers with four wheels. A majority of them have an swivelling wheel at the front that allows you to steer and change direction with only one hand. Some models also come with a lockable front wheels that can provide the stability you need on rough terrain. Some models can be used with a second seat or buggy board in case you're planning to increase the size of your family.
If you plan to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the roads that are paved, you should choose one with pneumatic tyres. They can handle the most difficult terrain. These tyres might need to be filled from time to the point, but they will be more durable and puncture-proof than solid tyres. It is recommended to choose a model that has an swiveling front wheel that can be locked to assist you on difficult terrains.
The fact that there is only one front wheel may also indicate that three-wheelers can be more bulkier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Be sure that the model you choose fits in your car's boot and can be placed upright if required. Some models are able to fold with one hand and are freestanding when collapsed. This can make them more compact in boot spaces that are smaller.
A good 3 wheel pushchair will be able to deal with most terrain from busy streets to tracks through woodlands. It is important to consider how you will use it every day. If you'll be running the school run, it must be able to handle steep kerbs and slopes. If you'll be running on it, make sure it has an adjustable swivelling'stretch' lockable front wheel to ensure that the ride is steady.
Kath the MFM reviewer, found that her stroller with three wheels was able to handle both urban and rural walks. Kath said it could navigate rocky paths, cobbles, and bumpy pavements with ease and was comfortable when jogging. It is also a good choice for day trips as it is packed with storage space.

It can be adjusted to meet the needs of babies from birth, including the option of a carry cot or a lay-flat seat. It's also compatible with the most well-known second seats and stroller boards.
Fabric Sling Seat
The main difference between a seat made of fabric and a modular seat is the fabric sling. It sits inside the frame of the buggy as opposed to being placed on top like a modular chair. This allows for a more ergonomically correct position of the baby, leading to a lower center of gravity that is just the right height. This in turn makes for an easier push, a lighter curb pop (you do not require much effort or weight to lift the buggy off the curb's edge) and a better balance and stability.
These buggy seats also feature sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. These fabrics were specifically designed for the sling chair and are UV-resistant and breathable. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain using mild soap and warm water.
If you're a jogger, or enjoy a bit of off-roading, an all-terrain 3 wheeler will be more suitable than a buggy with four wheels. These types have a bigger base they are more stable and use air-filled tyres to provide smooth and easy movement on rough terrain.

3-wheel buggies are ideal for off-road or all terrain adventures as they have more stability than 4-wheel strollers. The large, extremely maneuverable front wheel enables agile and smooth movement, whereas the tyres are usually air filled and have suspension, which gives you a great ride on even 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 like to run and jog with their kids typically opt for 3-wheel strollers because they are more nimble and sleeker than their 4-wheel counterparts.
