3 wheel umbrella stroller Wheel Buggies
Three-wheel buggies look stylish and sleek, with great maneuverability. Many of these feature a fabric sling seat with a cosy lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution, perfect for babies from birth.
The wheels are bigger and often have suspension to ensure smooth, agile movement on different terrains. The only downside is that they can be heavier and more bulkier to store and transport.
Stability
Three wheel buggies are extremely stable - they don't tip over as easily as pushchairs that have four wheels when going in a straight line. Also, you'll be able to move them more quickly and efficiently. However, if you attempt to stop or turn abruptly they'll lose their stability and may tip over. Some manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3 wheel compact stroller-wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.
The additional wheel also allows you to tackle off-road terrain. Look out for models with air-filled tyres (also called pneumatic tyres) as they are able to deal with off-road trails as well as other surfaces such as sand, mud and rock. These models will also feature a lockable wheel in the front to improve stability on rough terrain.
The buggies are simple to maneuver and agile thanks to the 360o front swivel wheel. They also pass the same global stability standards and tests as buggies with four wheels.
If you're looking for a fabric sling seat, then they are typically placed lower in the frame than modular seats, so that your baby's center of gravity is closer to the floor - instantly delivering a smoother ride and a less noticeable kerb pop (you don't need to apply as much pressure or effort to get the buggy up and over a Kerb).
Maxi-Cosi is best known for its car seats however, it has recently expanded its product range with the Citylife lightweight travel system and pushchair. This 3-in-1 is perfect for urban life, and comes with a newborn car seat or carrycot. It comes with 4 wheels and a unique pewter black aluminium frame, which the company claims is 'slim and compact' - it's only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.
Folding
There are many three wheel buggies that can be folded down to fit into smaller spaces. Many of these buggies can be folded in one hand and are easy to clean. Some of the smaller models come with a simple handlebar height adjustment, while others feature adjustable suspensions and a 50+ UV canopy that can be extended. Certain models may come with a large basket and a brake lever that is quick-release.
The most efficient 3 wheel buggy to tackle rough terrain
A 3 wheel push chair-wheeled buggy is usually better equipped to handle off-road conditions in comparison to a model with four wheels, though both can get stuck on tight corners. However, choosing a model with larger wheels on both sides can be beneficial. This makes it easier to push them across rough terrain, and can help you get up and down high curbs.
The new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its astonishing agility despite its 3 wheeler buggy-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath tested it with her child and reported that "it did really well on cobbles, bumpy surfaces gravel tracks, dirt roads and even some hills."
Another alternative is the newest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from Maxi-Cosi, a car seat manufacturer which is called Stella. It's suitable for babies when used with the carrycot. It's smaller than the light 4wheelers (with a surprisingly slim 54cm wide frame) but has big air-filled tyres. It also has 3 wheel pushchairs recline positions and a fast one-hand fold.
Its primary selling point is its modularity, though it's compatible with all the car seats for infants from the brand and strollers. You can build your own travel system, regardless of whether you want to go on an easy stroll or take a longer stroll, by using the chassis.
Tyres
The tyres on 3 wheel buggies come in a variety of styles and materials, and each comes with its pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air, offer an easy ride and excellent manoeuvrability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The kind of tyre you pick will be determined by your lifestyle and the place you reside.
If you intend to travel on unpaved roads or rough terrain often, you might be interested in a three-wheeler with more durable tyres. You should also consider the type of suspension that you require. The suspensions that are strong are great for tackling bumps and humps but they can be heavy, adding to the overall weight.
Another important factor to consider is tyre size. Knowing how to understand tyre sizing is vital for maintaining safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of letters and numbers on the sidewalls of tyres can appear confusing however, once you understand it, you will be able to understand the tyre's dimensions. A tyre that has a size of 185/70 R14, for example, means that it is a radial tire with a diameter of 185/70 with 14-inch rim diameter.
PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you aren't sure if the tires of a pushchair are rubber or PU, slide the tires across an even surface. If the tires slide smoothly they are made of PU. If they don't then the tires are composed of rubber.
Suspension
The suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an essential aspect to consider as it will absorb the bumps and knocks of rough terrain making it much more comfortable for your child. Large wheels that are air-filled, and are able to be locked to provide stability when running are essential. This will enable your buggy to travel on off-road surfaces effortlessly.
There are a variety of buggy styles to suit every lifestyle and budget. The Mountain Buggy, for example, pioneered all-terrain agility in three-wheel buggies. With the perfect geometry and engineering their sling seat made of fabric is tucked away inside the frame, in contrast to on top like modular seats, providing a lower centre of gravity and sitting at the ideal height to ensure optimal weight distribution that allows it to easily handle kerb pops.
The Urban Glide 2 by Thule is another excellent option. It sports a sleek design, a large wheel that's easy to move and comes with a superb suspension. It also has an adjustable handbrake that can be turned to make it easier of use. MFM reviewer Kath took this buggy to the test by taking it on a walk through rough ground and she found that it adapted to the terrain well. She said that it 'flies effortlessly over bumpy grass, pavements, cobbles dirt tracks, and can be a breeze getting up and down kerbs'.
The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road option. It is available in a range of colors that will complement your style. It also features an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also pick from a range of infant car seats that convert the buggy to a pram. This includes the elegantly designed Carrycot Plus(tm) which is a comfortable, flat baby bed suitable for infants and newborns up to 12 month old.
Safety
Four wheels make a buggy more stable, less likely for it to tip over, and more easy to maneuver. It can also be more secure for your baby since their weight is distributed more evenly over the frame of the pushchair.
A four-wheeled vehicle has a lower center of gravity, making it easier to get over curbs and climb up. The seat made of fabric is inside the frame rather than on top of it like modular seats. This makes for a low-slung seating position and a comparatively lighter buggy that is more easily maneuverable.
If you're looking to go for an exercise with your child then a 4-wheeler might be better suited as it has suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the rear one so you can tackle bumpy roads and rough terrain - just bear in mind not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most aren't, such as the Phil and Teds). The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially designed suspension system that has been tested by an independent party on all types of terrain.
