Three Wheeled Buggies
Three-wheeled buggies are ideal for walking around the neighborhood or for jogging. Their compact design makes them easy to maneuver even in tight spaces.
If you want a smooth ride with your pram, choose models with 360deg front wheels that swivel. However, they are more prone to punctures, so make sure you are prepared with a repair kit.
Sturdy frame
Recent figures have been released revealing that the three-wheeled vehicle - that noughties symbol of more money than wisdom - is in steep decline. They've been replaced with four-wheelers that are able to handle a wider range of terrain, while still looking elegant and easy to push.
The basic idea is that the bigger the wheels are, the easier it'll be for your buggy to deal with rough ground and bumpy pavements. The larger wheels both rear and front, make it easier to maneuver and more stable when walking downhill or over difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tried this buggy on the newborn baby as well as a child who was 3 years old and found it to be very robust. It was able to handle cobbles, grass and rough pavements, as well as dirt tracks and kerbs. She said "it is sturdy to push and is very stable when you're on rough terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable and require periodic pumping) offer built-in suspension that was very comfortable for my kids.
Another thing to take into consideration is the seat size and shape. The seat should be big enough for your child to be at ease and to lie down. Some three-wheel buggies will have an option to lie flat completely while others allow the parent to be facing one.
The Roma Atlas is a great alternative for off-road or walking in muddy areas. This buggy is suitable for a single child as early as birth and can be adjusted to accommodate two children as your family expands. It is suitable for toddlers and infants from birth until age 4, and includes a bumper and raincover, a new 5-point harness, and a large cushioned seat. The storage options are good too, with a decent-sized basket, zip pockets on the hood, and an attractive pouch at the back of the seat unit.
Larger wheels
Larger wheels mean your buggy will be more stable on rough terrain - ideal for off-road buggies. They also allow you to move the pushchair around tight spaces. Certain three-wheeled buggies have rotating wheels on the front to help you navigate tight corners. Others are designed to run and have fixed wheels that lock to provide increased speed and stability. This is also helpful when you crash into the roots of a tree or stray curb, since the front wheel will lift up a bit to prevent you from hitting it.
A majority of 3 wheel pushchairs come with air filled tyres which means they can handle different terrains and are far more flexible than 4-wheeler. 3 wheel buggy are also lighter. However, they're susceptible to punctures and you'll need an repair kit, spare tube and pump handy.
Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both buggies feature larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on grass, gravel tracks and market town cobbles" and can easily climb and descend kerbs. They also have suspension that according to Kath "smooths out bumps extremely effectively".
Buggies with larger wheels can be quite wide and they may be a challenge to fit into tight spaces. This can be an issue when you're using it for a jogger or you need to be able to get through doors that are narrow when out and out and about. Many models have small folding options that let you remove the front wheels and store them in a more compact manner.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the major advantages of a three-wheel buggy is that it is much easier to maneuver especially with a child in the back. They are designed to ensure that the front wheels rotate at a moment's notice, and are easy to move, making them ideal for terrains that are difficult, such as cobblestones, parks and bumpy roads. dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tried a 3-wheeler with her toddler. she reported: "The Terrain is a joy to maneuver on uneven terrain. The swivel wheel in the front was particularly useful." I was also awed by the way it handled the kerbs, particularly when using the hand-operated brake. I found it extremely stable when going downhill or over uneven ground."
The only drawback to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of the 3-wheel buggy may make it difficult to squeeze into tight spaces. This is something to keep in mind when you live in a city. If this is the case, a 4-wheeled buggy may be the better choice for you.
