Three Wheeled Buggies
Whether you're looking for a buggy jog with or just a nifty stroller to tackle strolls around the neighborhood, three-wheeled buggies provide great mobility. Their compact design allows them to be maneuvered easily even in tight areas.
For a smooth ride, go for a pram with air-filled tyres. Look for models with a 360deg front swivel wheel. They are prone, however to punctures. Be prepared with an repair kit.
Sturdy frame
Figures have just been released that show that the three-wheeled buggy - a symbol of the noughties of more money than sanity - is in steep decline. They have been replaced by four-wheelers that are able to handle a wider range of terrain, while still looking stylish and easy to push.
The bigger the wheels are the better your buggy can deal with uneven surfaces and bumpy pavements. Having larger wheels both front and back makes it much easier to maneuver and more stable when walking downhill or over difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tried this buggy out with a newborn and 3 year old and found it was able to handle grass, cobbles rough pavements, dirt tracks and kerbs. Kath wrote "it is sturdy to push and extremely solid when you're on rough terrain. The tyres, which are inflated and require to be pumped regularly and have a suspension built-in. It was extremely comfortable for my kids.
Another thing to take into consideration is the size of the seat and shape. It should be large enough to accommodate your child's comfort. You will also need it to recline so that they can lie flat. Certain three-wheel buggies come with the option of lying flat, which lets your child face you, whereas others only allow a parent-facing one.
The Roma Atlas is a great option for off-road or walking in muddy areas. The buggy can be used as a one-person unit from birth, and then expands to take two children when your family grows. It is suitable for infants and toddlers from birth to age 4. It comes with a bumper, raincover, an improved 5-point harness, and a big cushioned seat. The storage options are excellent as well, with a decent-sized basket, zip pockets inside the hood, and a handy pouch on the back of the seat unit.
Wheels with larger diameter
Larger wheels will give your buggy more stability while driving over rough terrain. This is especially beneficial for buggies that are off-road. They also allow you to move the pushchair around tight spaces. Some three-wheeled buggies come with swivel wheels at the front to assist you in navigating tight corners. Others are designed to run and have fixed wheels that lock for greater speed and stability. This is especially useful when you crash into the kerb or a tree. The front wheel will be lifted slightly to avoid hitting it.
3 wheeled strollers www.pushchairsandprams.uk of 3 wheel pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which means they are able to handle many different terrains and are more flexible than 4-wheeler. They're also lighter. However, they're prone to punctures so you'll need to have an repair kit, spare tube and pump handy.
Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both of these buggies come with larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on grass, gravel tracks and market town cobbles" and are able to effortlessly move up and down kerbs. They also come with a suspension system that according to her "smoothes out bumps with great efficiency".
Buggies with bigger wheels can be quite large, and they may be a challenge to fit into tight spaces. This is an issue when you're using it for an exercise bike or to maneuver through doorways that are narrow when you're out and about. Fortunately, the majority of models come with small folding options that allow you to remove the front wheels for more compact storage.
Easy to maneuver
One of the major advantages of a three-wheel buggy is that it is much more maneuverable, especially with a child on the way. They are designed so that the front wheels can be turned on a dime and are easy to move, making them ideal for challenging terrain such as cobblestones, parks, bumpy roads, and dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tried an all-wheeler with her toddler, and she reported: "The Terrain is a joy to maneuver on rough terrain. The front swivel wheel was particularly helpful." I was also impressed with the way it handled kerbs with the hand-operated break. It was extremely stable when for descending or on a rough terrain."
The only downside of this great mobility is that the 3 wheel buggy's bigger wheels sometimes mean it has to struggle in tight spaces - something to consider when you live in a city area. If this is an issue then a 4-wheeled buggy could be the better choice for you.
Bumper bar
Bumper bars are the perfect method to protect your little one from scrapes and bumps while out and about. They are quick and easy to put in and will make your child feel safe and secure whilst out on the town or on the trail.

It comes with a soft, padded surface to provide a comfortable surface for your child to grab onto while walking. The robust construction and sturdy design will ensure that your child is capable of enjoying a stroll around the town without worrying about falling or leaning towards the side.
The sling seat is comfortably inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats, delivering the lower centre of gravity at the right height for your newborn and also providing excellent weight distribution for easy kerb pop (it takes less effort to push the buggy over and up the curb than you think). MFM reviewer Kath found it coped really well with grass and cobbles and is a great option for jogging due to its lockable swivel front wheel that can be locked and air-filled tyres.
This bumper bar will attract attention wherever it's used. It has a classy and elegant appearance. It's available in a range of finishes and colours to suit your personal style.

The Sport's clever design places the fabric sling seat inside the frame, rather than sitting on top as modular seats. This lets it have lower center of gravity and makes it more comfortable to push, has a less weighty curb-pop (you will not need to exert much effort to push the buggy's nose over a curb), and offers greater stability and balance.

And that's not the only reason to love this buggy - our MFM reviewer Kath loved how spacious it is as well. There's an easily accessible large basket that's quite spacious for a buggy that's this big. Additionally, there's a handy pouch on the back seat unit, as well as two smaller mesh pockets under the hood to keep your phone and keys.
