Why Choose a 3 Wheel Buggy?
3-wheelers have a reputation for being tough and durable. The MB Mini, now owned by Phil & Teds, for example, features a lock-back or full swivel front wheel that can easily open curbs and boasts a super quick one-hand fold. It is suitable from birth, with the carrycot + (a comfortable lie-flat baby bed) and can be converted into an active double buggy.
Easy to Manoeuvre
When you choose a 3 wheel buggy you're opting for the utmost agility and ease of handling. This kind of pushchair is simple to maneuver and will easily navigate over bumps and kerbs.
Look for a buggy with pneumatic tyres and an excellent suspension if you intend to take it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath was "really impressed by the way it handled off-road walking and difficult terrain" adding that "it was able to handle cobbles and grass bumpy surfaces, dirt tracks very well."
If you're looking to purchase a buggy with three wheels for your newborn, make sure that the sling fabric is in the direction of the parent. Or, consider a modular that can be used as a carrycot, infant car seat or a cozy, lie-flat bed like Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which offers a comfortable lay-flat mattress that is suitable to sleep overnight) or Sport Verso (which grows with your child's development, from day dot to modular seat with a fabric seat). All of their 3-wheel buggies meet the same standards and stability tests as their 4-wheel models! To give you even more stability, they have a 16" rear wheel that has a lockable swivel front that's perfect for jogging. You can stay fit while pushing your kids.
Easy to fold
Many buggy brands have developed lightweight strollers and buggies that are very easy to fold. This is especially true for buggies with 3 wheels. They usually come with a simple, one-handed folding mechanism that allows you to easily fold the buggy in half, making it much easier to put it in the car's small or cabinet at home. A lot of these lightweight strollers and buggy models come with a convenient carry bag to make it easier to carry your pushchair on the move.
Another big advantage of 3-wheel buggys is their superior maneuverability when navigating rough terrain. This is due to their superior engineering geometry, geometry and weight distribution. The buggies usually have large wheels both in the front and back, which is essential for rough or bumpy pavements or roads. The wheels of a majority of 3 wheel buggies are rotated, which provides more agility and makes it easier to manage and steer the buggy over difficult surfaces.
This is the case with the new 3-wheeled buggy called Sport(tm) It's an impressive-looking travel device from a company more well-known for its car seats (Maxi-Cosi). The carrycot is suitable for infants and children who are 3 years old. This all-terrain pushchair has impressive tyres that are air filled and so don't need pumping. MFM reviewer Kath was extremely impressed by its ability to tackle rough terrain, saying that "it is able to navigate cobbles, grass and bumpy pavements easily and is a joy to jog with The lockable swivel in the front wheel gives you excellent stability."
This stylish buggy offers a quick and compact fold using 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 easy to use, rechargeable, and will really increase your visibility while out.
Easy to store
The 3 wheel buggy allows you to effortlessly maneuver it on rough terrain. This is why they're often a better choice for off-road walks than 4-wheel buggies and can be great for those who want to get out and explore the countryside or urban landscapes.
A 3-wheeler can be very quick to turn thanks to its perfect geometry and engineering that provides amazing agility and superior manoeuvrability. They are also easy to push, and can be used by people of all sizes. They can even be steered using just one hand, because they're equipped with a front swivel wheel that spins at a whim.

It can also attach car seats or a carrycot. It also comes with a large shopping bag, the front zip pocket, and two mesh pockets at the rear.
Easy to transport
Comparing 3 wheel buggies to 4-wheelers is often simpler and lighter. The weight of the buggie is evenly distributed over all four wheels so it's not a huge burden to push. This makes them perfect for those who prefer a light and easy to transport buggy.
