If you attempt to stop or turn suddenly they'll lose their stability and can tip over. Some manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3-wheel buggy designs in order to improve the stability of the chassis.

The additional wheel also allows you tackle off-road terrain. Choose models with air-filled tires (also known as pneumatic tyres), which can handle off-road paths, sand and dirt, as well as other surfaces, such as rock and sand. These models will also feature a lockable wheel in the front to improve stability on rough terrain.

With the correct geometry, engineering and weight distribution, these buggies can turn on a dime easy to steer with one hand; feature 360o front swivel wheels that allow agility and mobility to be effortless and easy to handle. They also meet the same stability standards globally and test as 4-wheel buggies.

If you are in the market for a seat made of fabric that are breathable, they tend to be lower in the frame compared to modular seats. This means that your baby's centre of gravity will be closer to the ground - instantly providing the smoothest ride.

The best 3 wheel buggy for tackling rough terrain

A 3-wheeled buggy is usually better equipped to handle off-road terrain when compared to a four-wheeled model however both may get stuck in tight corners. But, picking a model with bigger wheels on both sides can help. This allows them to push over uneven ground and is often helpful in moving up and down the high kerbs.

One option is the brand new Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its surprisingly agile handling despite its 3-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath has tested it with her child, and she said that "it was very well-handled on bumpy surfaces, cobbles and gravel tracks, dirt roads and even some hills."

Another alternative is the new all-terrain small 3 wheel stroller wheel buggy made by Maxi-Cosi, a car seat manufacturer named Stella. It's suitable for babies when used with the carrycot. It's little bigger than the lightweight 4wheelers (with an impressively slim 54cm wide frame) however it has large, air-filled tyres, 3 recline positions and a fast one-hand fold.

Its primary selling point is its modularity - it's compatible across all the brand's car seats and strollers for infants. This means you can create your ideal travel system for day-to-day or longer walks using the chassis as a base.

Tyres

The tyres for 3 wheeled pushchair wheel buggies come in a variety of styles and materials. Each comes with its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer an effortless ride and superior manoeuvrability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type you select will depend on your lifestyle and where you live.

If you intend to travel on unpaved roads or rough terrain often, you might be interested in a three-wheeler equipped with more durable tyres. You should also think about the type of suspension that you need. A strong suspension is ideal to handle bumps and humps, but it can be heavy and increase the overall weight of your pushchair.

The size of the tyre is also crucial. Understanding how to understand tyre sizing is vital for maintaining safety performance, durability, and performance. The combination of letters and numbers on the sidewalls of tyres can be initially, but decoding it allows you to understand the dimensions of the tyre. A tyre with an 185/70 size R14, for example, means that it is a radial tire in the 185/70 size with a 14-inch rim diameter.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are also lighter and more puncture resistant than rubber ones. If you're unsure whether a pushchair has rubber or PU tires, try sliding the tires over a smooth surface and tie them. If the tires slide easily and smoothly, they're made of PU. If not, then they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three-wheel buggy will make it more comfortable for your child because it absorbs any bumps or knocks caused by rough terrain. Large wheels that are air-filled and that can be locked to ensure stability when running are crucial. This will allow your buggy to maneuver over off-road surfaces effortlessly.

Based on the type of buggie you're seeking There are a variety of options to suit all lifestyles and budgets. The Mountain Buggy, for example is the first all-terrain vehicle to be developed in a three-wheel buggie. Their fabrics sling seats are designed with precise geometry and engineering to fit comfortably inside the frame instead of on top like modular seats. This gives an lower center of gravity, and is placed at the perfect height to distribute weight easily to conquer kerbs.

Another option worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule which boasts a sleek design with a massive, manoeuvrable front wheel, excellent suspension and a simple handbrake that twists. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy through its trials by going for a ride on rough terrain. She found that it was able to handle it very well and said that it "navigates over grass, bumpy cobbles, sidewalks and dirt tracks and makes it easy to drive up and down kerbs".

The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road choice. It comes in a variety of colours that match your style. It also features an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket and a 50+ UV hood. You can also choose from a variety of infant car seats that convert the buggy to pram. This includes the elegantly designed Carrycot Plus(tm) that is a comfy lie-flat mattress for babies and infants from 12 months old.

Safety

Four wheels make the pushchair much more stable and less likely to tip over and easier to handle. It is also more secure for your child as their weight is distributed more evenly over the frame of the pushchair.

A four-wheeler is also likely to have a lower centre of gravity and is therefore easier to pop over curbs and up the stairs. The sling seat is affixed inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats do, which makes for a low-slung seating position and a comparatively lighter buggy that can be easily manoeuvred.

However, if you want to go for an exercise with your child then a 4-wheeler might be more suitable as it will have suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the back one to allow you to tackle bumpy roads and rough terrain - just bear in mind not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most are NOT, such as the Phil and Teds). Mountain Buggies are the exception because they come with an exclusive suspension system that has been tested independently across all kinds of terrain.
