Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?
3-wheelers are known for their strength and durability. The MB Mini is now owned by Phil & Teds, for instance, has the option of locking back or a full swivel front wheel to easily pop up curbs, and comes with a quick one-hand fold. It is suitable for babies from birth, with the carrycot plus (a cozy lie-flat crib for babies), and it can also be converted to an active double buggy.
Easy to Manoeuvre
When you choose a 3 wheel buggy you're opting for flexibility and lightness of handling. This type of pushchair is simple to maneuver and will easily overcome bumps and high kerbs.
Look for a buggy with pneumatic tyres and a good suspension if you plan to take it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath was "really amazed at how well it adapted to off-road walking and difficult terrain," adding that "it handled grass and cobbles bumpy surfaces, as well as dirt tracks extremely well."
If you're considering purchasing a 3-wheel buggy to carry a newborn, make sure the sling seat made of fabric is facing the parent, or you could consider an adjustable model that can be converted into a carrycot or an infant car seat, like Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which provides a comfortable and a lie flat bed that is certified for overnight sleeping) or sport verso (which grows with your child as they grow from day dot by converting a fabric sling seat to modular seat). All of their 3-wheel buggies have the same safety standards and stability tests as their four-wheel models! They have a 16" rear tire that has a lockable swivel that's ideal for jogging. You can keep fit while playing with your children.
Folding is easy
Many buggy brands have come up with lightweight strollers and buggies that fold easily. This is especially true of 3 wheel buggies. The buggy can be folded into half easily using a simple one-handed mechanism. This makes it easy to store it in a small car boot or a cabinet at home. A lot of these lightweight strollers and buggy models come with a handy carry bag to make it easier to transport your pushchair around.
Another benefit of 3-wheel buggys is their ability to maneuver better on rough terrain. This is due to their superior design, engineering and weight distribution. The buggies typically have large wheels both in the front and back, which is essential for bumpy or rough pavements or roads. Furthermore the wheels on the majority of 3 wheel buggies are swivel, which further helps to increase your agility and makes it easy to steer and control the buggy on difficult surfaces.
This is the case with the new 3-wheel buggy called Sport(tm), which is a fabulous-looking travel system from a company that is more well-known for its car seats (Maxi-Cosi). The carrycot is suitable for babies and children who are 3 years old. The tyres with air-filled rims of this all-terrain stroller are impressive and don't require pumping. Kath was an MFM reviewer, was amazed by its ability to handle rough terrain. She noted that it "navigates smoothly over grass and cobbles, as well as bumpy surfaces easily."
This stylish stroller also comes with an easy and compact fold with just one hand, along with a range of great storage options (including a large basket and a toddler ride-on board). It also comes with a set of LED visibility Lights that are simple to use, rechargeable and will greatly increase your visibility while out.
Easy to store
The 3-wheel buggy is one of the most compact and portable models of prams, allowing you to easily manoeuvre it on uneven ground. As a result, they're generally a better option for off-road trips than 4-wheel buggies and are ideal for those who like to explore the urban or countryside.
A 3-wheel buggy is very mobile and maneuverable. Its perfect geometry and engineering allows for quick turns. 3 wheeled pushchair are also simple to push and are suitable for people of all sizes. The majority of them can be operated by just one hand as they have an in-front wheel that can rotate on a dime.
Sport verso(tm) which is a world-first model, is based on the OG inline(tm). It offers a modularity that protects your pocketbook. It is possible to start with just one buggy, but then expand to two or more as your family expands. It features an auto-lounge flat bed, a large cushioned seat unit, and an improved 5-point harness. It can also be attached to an infant car seat or carrycot. It also has a large shopping bag with an open front zip pocket and two mesh pockets on the rear.
Easy to transport
Comparatively to 4-wheelers wheel buggies tend to be much lighter and easier to maneuver and handle. This is because the weight of a 3 wheeler is evenly distributed over all four wheels, meaning it's not as much as an issue to carry around. This makes them perfect for those who need lightweight and easy to transport buggy.
Mountain Buggy is a pioneer of all-terrain adventures and has introduced a new 3 wheeled buggy designed for those who enjoy being in the great outdoors. The Upp XL comes in black or grey and has suspension and an oversized front wheel, which provides outstanding off-road performance.
The Upp XL comes with a fabric sling that has been designed to be parent facing. This allows you to bond with your newborn. It also comes with a comfortable carrycot, which is approved for sleep at night and a breathable, firm mattress.
It's suitable from birth and, as with all Mountain Buggy buggies, it has the same rigorous global stability tests as the strollers with four wheels. It's also, of course it's beautiful to look at thanks to its black frame in pewter and jacquard black fabric.
