Ten Three Wheeled Buggies Myths That Don t Always Hold

three wheeler pushchair Wheeled Buggies

If you're looking for a buggy run with or just a compact stroller for the neighborhood, three-wheeled buggies provide great mobility. Their compact design makes it easy to maneuver, even in tight spots.

If you want a smooth ride with your pram, choose models with 360deg front wheels that swivel. However, they are susceptible to punctures, so make sure you are prepared with a repair kit.

Sturdy frame

New figures show that the three-wheeled buggies, that symbol of the decade that were more expensive than common sense, are in a steep decline. Four-wheelers have replaced them, and are more versatile and easier to drive, while also looking fashionable.

The idea is that the bigger the wheels are, the easier it will be for your buggy to cope with bumpy ground and rough pavements. The larger wheels both rear and front enable you to maneuver and more stable while walking downhill or in difficult terrain.

MFM reviewer Kath tested the buggy with a newborn and a best 3 wheel pushchair year old and found that it was able to handle grass, cobbles, rough pavements, dirt tracks and kerbs. She said "it feels sturdy to push and very solid when you're on rough terrain. Its tyres (which are inflatable and require periodic pumping) have suspension built-in which was extremely comfortable for my kids.

Another thing to consider is the size and shape. You want the seat to be big enough for your child to feel at ease and to lie down. Certain three-wheel buggies have the option of reclining completely, while others only allow for the parent to be facing one.

An excellent option for taking on off-road and muddy walks is the Roma Atlas. This buggy is suitable for a single child as early as birth, and can be adapted to accommodate two children as 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. Storage options are also a plus with a large basket with zip pockets on the hood and a handy pouch on the rear of the seat unit.

Wheels with a greater diameter

Larger wheels means that your buggy will have more stability on rough terrain - ideal for buggies designed for off-road use. They also allow you to maneuver the pushchair in tight spaces. A lot of three-wheeled buggies come with the front wheels that swivel to assist you in maneuvering around tight corners, while others are specifically designed for running and have fixed front wheels that lock to improve the speed and stability at which they can be pushed. This is also helpful when you crash into the roots of a tree or stray road, as the front wheel will lift up a bit to prevent you from hitting it.

Many 3 wheeled pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which allows them to tackle a broad range of terrains. They are also more flexible than 4 wheelers. They're also lighter. They are prone to punctures, so you will need to have repair kits and an spare inner tube in your arsenal.

Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both of these buggies have larger wheels that, as per MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on grass, gravel tracks and market town cobbles" and can easily go up and down kerbs. The buggies also have a suspension that Kath says "smooths out bumps with great efficiency".

The downside of having larger wheels is that they can make buggies quite large and can struggle to fit through narrow spaces. This is problematic if you intend to use it as a jogger, or need to fit through doorways that are narrow when out and about. Fortunately, many models come with small folding options that let you remove the front wheels to make compact storage.

Easy to maneuver

One of the major advantages of a three-wheel buggy is that it can be much more maneuverable particularly with a child in the back. They are designed so that the front wheels can rotate at a moment's notice, and are easy to move, making them ideal for challenging terrain such as parks, cobblestones as well as bumpy roads and dirt tracks.

MFM reviewer Kath tried an all-wheeler with her toddler, and she wrote: "The Terrain is a joy to maneuver on uneven terrain. The swivel wheel front was particularly useful." I was also awed by how well it handled kerbs when using the hand-operated break. I found it extremely steady when I was driving downhill or over uneven terrain."

The only drawback to this amazing maneuverability is that the larger wheels of the best 3 wheel stroller-wheel buggy may make it difficult to fit into tight spaces. This is something you need to keep in mind when you live in an urban area. If this is a concern then a 4-wheel buggy may be a better option for you.
