What Are The Myths And Facts Behind 3 Wheel Buggy

Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?

3-wheelers are renowned for being tough and durable. The MB Mini now owned by Phil & Teds features a lockback or a full swivel wheel to easily pop-up curbs and boasts a quick one-hand folding. It is suitable for babies from birth, with the carrycot plus (a cozy lie-flat baby bed) It also converts into a fully-loaded double buggy.

Easy to Manoeuvre

If you select a 3 wheel buggy you're opting for flexibility and lightness of handling. This type of buggy is easy to maneuver and will easily navigate over bumps and kerbs.

Look for a buggy with pneumatic tyres as well as a sturdy suspension if you plan to use it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath said she was "really amazed by how well it performed on off-road walks and challenging terrain" adding "it did a great job handling cobbles, grass bumpy pavements and dirt tracks very well, and was a great way to navigate through kerbs."

If you're thinking of buying a 3-wheel buggy to accommodate infants, make sure the sling seat fabric is parent-facing, or consider modulars that convert into a carrycot, or infant car seat, such as Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which provides a comfortable, lie flat bed approved for sleeping at night) or sport verso (which expands with your child from day dot by converting a fabric sling seat to modular seat). All of their 3-wheel buggies meet the same safety standards and stability tests as their 4-wheel models! They have 16" rear tire that has an swivel wheel lockable that is perfect for running. You can stay fit while pushing your kids.

Easy to fold

Many buggy manufacturers have created lightweight walkers and buggies that are easy to fold. This is particularly true for three wheel buggies. The buggy can be folded in half with ease by using a simple, one-hand mechanism. This makes it much easier to store it in a small car boot or home cupboard. A majority of these lightweight strollers and buggy models come with a convenient carry bag that makes it easier to take your pushchair around.

Another major benefit of 3-wheel buggy is their ability to maneuver better on rough terrain. This is due to their superior engineering, geometry and weight distribution. They typically have big wheels that are placed in the back and the front of the buggy, which is particularly important when dealing with rough or bumpy roads or pavements. The wheels of the majority of 3 wheel buggies can be turned 360 degrees, which allows for greater agility and allows you to better control and steer the buggy on difficult surfaces.

This is the case for the brand-new 3-wheel buggy named Sport(tm), a travel system that looks stunning and is from a company better known for their car seats (Maxi Cosi). The carrycot is suitable for infants and children who are 3 years old. The tyres that are filled with air of this stroller for all terrains are impressive and don't require pumping. MFM reviewer Kath was really impressed with its ability to handle rough terrain, stating that "it can navigate well over cobbles, grass and bumpy pavements easily, and is a pleasure to run with - the lockable swivel front wheel provides excellent stability."

Furthermore, this fashionable buggy comes with a single-handed and compact fold as well as excellent storage options (including large baskets and a handy toddler ride-on-board). It even comes with a changing set of LED lights that are easy to use, rechargeable and can really boost your visibility when you're out and out and about.

Easy to store

The 3 wheel buggy is among the most portable and compact styles of pram which allows you to maneuver it on uneven terrain. They're typically a better option for off-road trips than 4-wheel buggies and are ideal for those who love to explore the urban or countryside.

Comparing 3 wheel buggies with 4-wheelers is usually simpler and lighter. This is due to the fact that the weight of a 3 wheeler is evenly distributed across the four wheels, which means it's not nearly as a burden to move around. They are ideal for those looking for an affordable and light-weight buggy that is easy to transport.
