Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?

3-wheelers are renowned for being durable and tough. The MB Mini is now owned by Phil & Teds, for instance, has an swivel lock or full-swivel front wheel that is able to open curbs, and comes with a quick one-hand fold. Suitable from birth with the carrycot and (a cozy lie-flat baby bed) and it can also be converted into an active inline double buggy.

Easy to manoeuvre

If you select a 3 wheeled buggy, you're choosing the utmost agility and ease of handling. This style of pushchair has a single wheel at the front and two wheels at the back, so they're very easy to turn on sixpence, and they can get over bumps or high kerbs effortlessly.

If you're planning to take your buggy off the road it is essential to choose one with a high-quality suspension and pneumatic tyres so be sure to look for these features. MFM reviewer Kath said she was "really impressed by how well it performed on off-road walks and difficult terrain" she added "it was able to handle grass, cobbles bumpy pavements and dirt tracks really well, and it was a breeze to navigate between kerbs."

If you're considering buying a 3-wheel buggy to accommodate infants, make sure the sling seat fabric is oriented towards the parents, or think about a modular that can convert into a carrycot or infant car seat, such as Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which provides a comfortable sleeper that's certified for overnight sleeping) or sport verso (which grows with your child as they grow from day dot by converting an sling seat made of fabric to a modular seats). The 3 wheel buggies from Mountain Buggy pass the same stability tests and standards as 4-wheel models, too! They have a 16" rear tire with a lockable swivel that's ideal for jogging. You can keep fit while playing with your kids.

Folding is simple

Many buggy brands have come up with lightweight strollers and buggies that fold easily. This is especially the case for buggies that have 3 wheels. They usually come with a simple one-handed folding mechanism that lets you fold the buggy in half, making it much easier to squeeze it into your small car boot or cupboard at home. A lot of these lightweight buggy and stroller models also come with a clever carry bag that makes it easier to transport the pushchair when you're on the move.

The superior maneuverability of a 3-wheel buggy is another big advantage. This is due to their superior engineering, geometry and weight distribution. The buggies usually have large wheels in both the front and back, which is essential for bumpy or rough pavements or roads. The wheels of most 3 wheel buggies are rotated, which provides more agility and makes it easier to manage and steer the buggy on difficult surfaces.

This is the case for the brand-new 3-wheel buggy, named Sport(tm) which is a travel system that looks stunning and is from the same company that is famous for their car seats (Maxi Cosi). It's suitable from birth with its carrycot and is suitable up to age 3 years old. This all-terrain pushchair has impressive tyres that have air in them pushchairs and prams so don't need pumping. Kath, a MFM reviewer, was amazed by its ability to navigate rough terrain. Kath said it "navigates smoothly over grass and cobbles and bumpy surfaces effortlessly."

What's more, this stylish buggy offers a one-handed quick and compact fold, as well as fantastic storage options (including a spacious basket and a handy toddler ride-on board). It also comes with a set of LED Visibility Lights that are simple to operate, rechargeable, and will significantly increase your visibility while out.

Easy to transport

Comparing 3 wheel buggies to 4-wheelers is usually more simple and less heavy. This is because the weight of a buggy is evenly distributed over all four wheels, so it's not as much as a burden to move around. They are ideal for those looking for an affordable and light-weight buggy that is easy to transport.
