3 Wheeled Buggies A 3-wheel buggy can be used for off-road walking and to tackle terrain from rough roads or woodland tracks. They are also easier to maneuver up and down kerbs than 4-wheel models. Kath, the editor of MadeForMums reviews, tried one of these three-wheelers on tarmac, as well as on a variety of terrains. You can read her full review here. Stability With four wheels and a centre of gravity that's balanced by the weight of your child's seat, 4-wheel buggies are generally considered to be more stable than triwheelers. Three-wheel buggies are still worth considering as they can handle everything from rough terrain to busy streets. Look for a buggy with large rear wheels, and an lockable wheel on the front. This makes it more comfortable to drive and less likely to snap apart on bumpy roads. These all-terrain buggies often have pneumatic tyres, too. They are ideal for handling uneven surfaces and can be used on sandy beaches or woodland tracks. They are also the best buggies to be running with, since they provide great stability on rough terrain and help you keep up with your running partner. They're also good at going up and down steep kerbs and a majority come with a suspension built in that ensures your child will have a pleasant ride. One thing that makes a pushchair with three wheels difficult to manoeuvre is the wide frame, which can make it difficult to squeeze through narrow and tight doors than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have solved this issue with an innovative design that flips the wheels upwards when they are not being used. This reduces their dimensions and makes it easier to fit through doorways. You'll also need 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. If so, ensure that it is in a lie-flat position and whether the design is compatible with other seats and buggy boards (if you'd like to add the toddler to the buggy). A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat and can be upright when folded which is useful if you have a an insufficient car boot or a small 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 smaller space. Manoeuvrability Three-wheeled buggies usually provide better maneuverability than pushchairs with four wheels. A majority of them have a swivelling wheels on the front which allows you to steer and change direction using just one hand. Some models have locks on the wheel to provide stability on rougher terrain. Some models can even be used with a second seat or buggy board in case you're planning to grow your family. If you're planning to take your three-wheeled vehicle off of paved tracks, it's worth selecting a model that has tyres with air in them (also called pneumatic tyres) which can cope with the most challenging terrain. They will require pumping up occasionally but they'll be more durable than tyres made of solid rubber and more likely to be puncture-proof. Choose a model that has a a lockable swivelling front wheel to assist you in maneuvering difficult surfaces. When folded, three-wheelers can be more bulky than four-wheeled buggies due to the single wheel on the front. Be sure that the model you pick fits inside your car's boot and can be placed upright if required. Some models can be folded by one hand and stand up when collapsed. This can help save space in the boot of your car. A good 3 wheel pushchair will be able to deal with all terrains, from busy streets to woodland tracks. But it's important to consider the purpose you'll use for your day-to-day use. If you're planning to run the school run, it ought to be able to cope with steep slopes and kerbs. If you intend to jog with it, make sure it has a swiveling'stretch front wheel' that is locked. This will keep the ride in place. Kath who is an MFM reviewer, was able to determine that her stroller with three wheels was able to take on urban and walks in the countryside. Kath noted that it was able to negotiate cobbles, rough paths, and bumpy pavements effortlessly and was comfortable while running. It's also a great choice for day trips as it is packed with storage space. It has a large, spacious, zip-top covered basket as well as an extended 50+ UV hood. It can be modified to fit a baby's needs from birth, with the option of a carry cot or a lie-flat seat. It is also compatible with the most well-known second seats and stroller boards. Fabric Sling Seat The key difference between a fabric sling and modular seats is that the fabric sling fits snugly inside the buggy frame rather than sitting on top of it like a modular seat would. This makes it easier to maintain an ergonomically correct position of the baby, leading to a lower center of gravity, which is the ideal height. This translates into an easier push, a lighter curb pop (you don't need as much weight and effort to lift the buggy off the curb's edge) and a better balance and stability. These seats also have sling fabrics that are easy to clean and durable. Developed specifically with the use of sling chairs in mind These fabrics are extremely durable and breathable. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water. If you're a jogger or like to do some off-roading, then an all terrain buggy is more likely to suit your requirements than a four-wheeled buggy. These models have a larger base they are more stable and utilize air-filled tyres for smooth, easy mobility over rough terrain.

The large, highly manoeuvrable front wheel enables agile and smooth movement, whilst the tyres are generally filled with air and have suspension, allowing for a smooth ride on the most difficult trails and roads. The wheels are not as close to the ground on these pushchairs as they are on four wheeled pushchairs. This makes them perfect for walking uphill.
