Three Wheeled Buggies
Three-wheeled buggies are great for strolling around the neighborhood or jogging. Their compact design makes them easy to manoeuvre even in tight spaces.
For a smooth ride, opt for a pram with air-filled tyres and look for models with a 360deg front swivel wheel. However, they are susceptible to punctures, so be prepared with an repair kit.
Sturdy frame
New figures show that the three-wheeled buggies, the symbol of the decade that were more expensive than common sense, are in rapid decline. They've been replaced with four-wheelers which can handle a wider range of terrain, while also looking stylish and easy to push.
The principle is that the larger the wheels, the easier it will be for your buggy to cope with bumpy ground and rough pavements. The larger wheels, both front and rear enable you to move and more stable when walking downhill or in difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tested the buggy with a newborn and 3 wheel tandem stroller year old and found that it was able to handle cobbles, grass, rough roads, dirt tracks and kerbs. She noted that it was solid to push, and extremely solid on rough terrain. The tyres, which are inflatable and require to be pumped regularly and have a suspension built-in. This was very comfortable for my kids.
Another thing to consider is the size and shape. You want the seat to be big enough to allow your child to be comfortable and allow them to lie down. Certain three-wheel buggies come with a lie-flat option that allows your child to lie flat and face you, whereas others only allow a face-to-parent one.
The Roma Atlas is a great option for off-road or wet walks. This buggy is ideal for a single child starting from birth, and can be adapted to accommodate two children as your family grows.

Storage options are also a plus with a large storage basket and zip pockets on the hood and an attractive pouch on the rear of the seat unit.
Wheels with a greater diameter
Larger wheels will give your buggy more stability while driving on rough terrain. This is especially beneficial for buggies that are off-road. They also help you maneuver the pushchair in tight spaces. Certain three-wheeled buggies have rotating wheels on the front, which assist you in navigating tight corners. Others are designed for running and have fixed wheels that lock to provide increased speed and stability. This is also helpful if you bump into the roots of a tree or stray kerb as the front wheel will rise up slightly to prevent you from hitting it.
A lot of 3 wheel stroller travel system wheel pushchairs have air-filled tyres, which means they are able to handle many different terrains and are much more flexible than 4-wheeler. They're also lighter. However, they're prone to punctures, so 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 of these buggies come with larger wheels that, according to MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on gravel tracks, grass and market town cobbles" and can easily go up and down kerbs. They also have a suspension system that according to her "smoothes out bumps very effectively".
The downside of having bigger wheels is that they can make some buggies quite wide and can struggle to fit through narrow spaces. This could be problematic if you intend to use it as a jogger, or need to fit through doorways that are narrow while on the move. Most models come with small folding options that permit you to take off the front wheels and store them more compactly.
Easy to maneuver
One of the major advantages to a three wheel buggy is that it's much more maneuverable especially with a child on the way. The way they are built means that the front wheels rotate on a dime and are extremely maneuverable and are ideal for tricky terrain like cobbles, parks or bumpy pavements, as well as dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tested a 3 wheel baby Strollers wheeler with her infant and toddler and stated: "The Terrain was a pleasure to maneuver over tough terrain, with the swivel front wheel particularly useful. I was also impressed with how well it coped with the kerbs, particularly when using the hand-operated brake. I found it extremely steady when I was driving downhill or on uneven ground."
The only drawback of this great mobility is that the 3 wheel all terrain buggy wheel buggy's bigger wheels sometimes mean it has to struggle in tight spaces, something to keep in mind when you live in a city area. If this is an issue, a 4-wheeled buggy may be a better option for you.
