MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these three-wheelers with her newborn and three year old, and put it through its paces on the road and on a rocky surface. Read her review here.
Stability
With four wheels and a central point of gravity that's balanced by the weight of your child in the seat, buggies with four wheels are generally considered to be more stable than three-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are worth considering as they can take on anything from rough terrain to busy streets.
Choose a buggy that has large rear wheels and an lockable wheel on the front. This will make it easier to drive and less likely to fall apart on rough roads. These buggies are typically equipped with pneumatic tyres too, which are great at handling surfaces that aren't paved and can even be used on sandy beaches or woodland tracks.
These are also the best 3 wheel pushchair buggies to be running around in, as they offer great stability over rough terrain and can aid in keeping up with your jogging partner. They can also go up and down steep kerbs and a lot of them have spring suspension that is built-in, so your baby will have a smooth ride.
A stroller with 3 wheels can be difficult to maneuver due to its wide frame. It is more difficult to get through doorways and narrow spaces than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have solved this issue with a clever design which turns the wheels upside down when they are not in use. This reduces their dimensions and makes it easier to maneuver through doorways.
You'll also need to think about 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, make sure it has a lie-flat position and whether the design is compatible with second-seats and buggy boards (if you're planning to put an infant onboard). Many 3-wheelers can fold flat, and later be placed upright. This is a great option if you only have a small boot space or a small amount of storage space at home. However, some will require you to take out the front wheel before folding in order to fit into even smaller space.
Manoeuvrability
Three-wheeled buggies usually provide better maneuverability than pushchairs with four wheels. Many of them have an swivelling wheel at the front that allows you to steer and change direction using only one hand. Some models come with wheels that lock to offer stability on rough terrain. Some models can even be used with an additional seat or buggy board if you're planning to expand your family.
If you intend to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the paved roads it is recommended to choose an option that has pneumatic tyres. They can handle the most difficult terrain. These tyres will need pumping up occasionally but will be much more durable than solid tyres and more likely to be puncture-proof. Look for a model with a lockable swivelling front wheel to assist you in maneuvering difficult surfaces.
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. Check that the model you select fits in your car's boot and can be set up upright if needed. Certain models can be folded with just one hand and stand on their own when collapsed. This can save space in car boot spaces that are smaller.
A quality three-wheel pushchair will take on any terrain from busy streets to forest tracks. It's important to think about the purpose you'll use it for in the daytime. If you'll be running the school run, it ought to be able to cope with steep kerbs and slopes. If you'll be running with it, make sure it has an adjustable swivelling'stretch' lockable front wheel to ensure that the ride is safe.
MFM reviewer Kath discovered her three-wheeled buggy to be able to perform well with the countryside and urban walks. Kath said it was able to negotiate cobbles, rocky paths, and bumpy pavements with ease and felt pleasant when running. It's also a great choice for day trips as it offers plenty of storage space. This includes an ample, spacious zip-top basket that is covered and an expandable, 50+ UV hood. It can also be modified for baby from birth with a lie-flat seat or carry cot, in addition to being compatible with most popular second-seats and buggy boards.
Fabric Sling Seat
The primary difference between a fabric sling and a modular seat is that the fabric sling fits comfortably inside the frame of the buggy instead of sitting on top of it like a modular seat would. This makes it easier to maintain an ergonomically correct position of the baby, which results in a lower center of gravity at just the right height. This results in a smoother push, a lighter curb-pop (you don't have to exert the same effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and increased stability and balance.
These seats also come with 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 air-tight. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain using mild soap and warm water.

Many modular seating systems have cushion covers that can be removed which makes it easier to wash spills and stains.

3-wheel buggies are especially suitable for off-road and all-terrain adventures as they have more stability than 4-wheel strollers. The large front wheel that is extremely maneuverable allows for smooth and quick movement. The tyres, which are typically air-filled and have suspension, give you a great ride even on the roughest trails and roads. The wheels aren't as close to the ground on these pushchairs as they are on four wheeled pushchairs. This makes them ideal for walking uphill.
Parents who like to run and jog with their children usually opt for strollers with three wheels because they are more nimble and sleeker than their four-wheel counterparts.
