Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?
3-wheelers are renowned for being durable and tough. The MB Mini which is now owned by Phil & Teds, for instance, has the option of locking back or a full swivel front wheel that is able to open curbs and has a quick one-hand fold. It is suitable from birth, and comes with a carrycot + (a cozy lie-flat crib for babies) and can also be converted to an active double buggy.
Easy to manoeuvre
If you opt for a three wheel buggy you're opting for agility and lightness in handling. This type of pushchair has one wheel in the front and two wheels at the back, so they're extremely easy to turn with sixpence, and they can overcome bumps and high kerbs easily.
Choose a buggy equipped with pneumatic tyres as well as a sturdy suspension if you plan to take it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath said she was "really amazed by how well it coped with off-road walking and difficult terrain" she added "it was able to handle grass, cobbles, bumpy pavements, and dirt tracks really well, and it was a great way to navigate through kerbs."
If you're considering buying a 3-wheel buggy for the newborn, ensure that the fabric sling seat is parent-facing, or consider a modular that can convert into a carrycot, or infant car seat, like Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which offers a cosy sleeper that's certified for overnight sleeping) or sport verso (which grows with your child from day to dot with the use of a fabric sling to modular seats). All of their 3-wheel buggies pass the same standards and stability tests as their four-wheel models! To give you even more stability, they have a 16" rear wheel with lockable front swivel, which is perfect for running. You can stay active while playing with your children.
Easy to fold
Many buggy brands have created lightweight strollers and buggies that are easy to fold. This is particularly true for three wheel buggies. They usually come with a simple one-handed folding mechanism which allows you to fold the buggy in half, making it much easier to squeeze it into the car's small storage space or even a cupboard at home. A lot of these lightweight buggy and stroller models come with an elegant carry bag that makes it even easy to transport the stroller when you're on the move.
A 3-wheel buggy's superior maneuverability is another big advantage. This is due to their superior engineering, geometry and weight distribution. The buggy often has large wheels in both the front and back, which is essential for bumpy or rough surfaces or roads. Furthermore, the wheels on most 3 wheel buggies swivel, which further helps to increase your agility and makes it easy to steer and control the buggy over difficult terrains.
This is the case with the new 3-wheeled buggy called Sport(tm) It's a fabulous-looking travel system from a company more well-known for its car seats (Maxi-Cosi). The carrycot is suitable for babies and children as young as 3 years old. The tyres that are filled with air of this stroller for all terrains are impressive and don't require pumping. Kath, a MFM reviewer, was impressed by its ability to navigate rough terrain. She noted that it "navigates smoothly over grass and cobbles and bumpy surfaces with ease."
Furthermore, this fashionable buggy offers a one-handed quick and compact fold, as well as fantastic storage options (including an ample basket and a convenient toddler ride on board). It even comes with a game changing set of LED Visibility lights that are simple to use, rechargeable and really improve your visibility when you're out and out and about.
Easy to store
