Why Buy a 3 Wheeler Buggy?
A three-wheeled vehicle is a great option for those who love running in the morning. They are equipped with larger wheels that give an easier ride, however they are heavier and require a larger car boot.
If you want to use your pushchair for outdoor walks you should consider models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic). They are able to be used on rough terrain and come with a the ability to have a front wheel lock to provide greater stability.
What is a 3 wheeler buggy?
If you're off-road or just around town, a 3-wheeler offers the best maneuverability. They can turn at a moment's notice and are easy to handle, passing stringent stability tests. A fabric sling sits snug inside the frame, rather than being placed on top of it as modular seats - this design delivers in lower center of gravity to allow for more comfortable pushing and lighter curb pops (you don't need to put the same amount of weight or effort into popping your buggy over the curb). Mountain Buggy(r) even has an original design sport verso(tm) with a 3 wheelin' inline chassis that can grow with your family - from a parent's face infant carrier to toddler ride-on board.
Are you planning to go "off-road"?
For those who like to be adventurous and get off the beaten path it is essential that your vehicle can cope with rough terrain. You need a good suspension to absorb bumps and large wheels that have air filled tires for a good grip on rough terrain. A lockable wheel on the front is an excellent option for stability when jogging on rough surfaces.
MFM reviewer Kath really put this fun-loving buggy to the test while driving it over rough dirt, cobbles, and grass tracks with her newborn and three year old, and she said "it did everything without difficulty and was even pleasant to jog with. The rear wheels are 16 inches and the lockable'swivel' wheel on the front offer great stability when working roadsides or uneven surfaces. The tyres come with a suspension built-in for smooth riding."
Another world's first; sport verso is a brilliant single-buggy that will future proof your wallet because it can easily take 2 (or more!) When your family grows, you'll be able to use the same buggy. The sling seat is made of fabric and fits perfectly inside the frame at the perfect height to ensure a perfect weight distribution, instantly delivering a much easier push, a lighter curb pop and superior maneuverability over any terrain.

A 3 wheel buggy has a single front wheel and two wheels at the back and, based on the model, the wheel can either be free to swivel or fixed in position so that the buggy travels in straight lines. Their USP is that they are extremely maneuverable and easy to steer and they will often come with suspension (which can be handy for tricky terrain) and air-filled tyres so the ride is smooth and comfortable. They are ideal for everyday use in the city and are often able to handle kerb-popping and taking off road.
Like any buggy, it is essential to drive responsibly and not be distracted by your tablet, mobile phone or any other gadget. Avoid driving when you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs as it could influence your judgement and reaction time. Check the footprint of your buggy once it is folded completely to ensure that it will fit in your car.
If you're looking for a buggy that can take you from the parks to the shops, you must look for one that has a large shopping basket, a robust brake pedal, and a massive sun canopy (50plus inches in size) with an extendable pole. MFM reviewer Kath particularly liked the fabric sling seat which has an automatic lie flat bed for newborns, and felt that the seating was placed perfectly within the frame for an even weight distribution. However, she it was noted that the triangular frame does mean half the storage space of the 4 wheeler.

With the superb manoeuvrability that this fun lovin' 3-wheeler can provide, it is perfect for urban adventures too. MFM reviewer Kath tried it out to the test and discovered it navigated grass, cobbles, and bumpy pavements easily. It was also able to navigate the kerbs in town, since the seat sling is perfectly positioned within the frame at the perfect height to distribute weight.
This buggy can also be used to jog, as it has locking swivel wheels that can be locked on the front and a'snug and stretch' tyre which gives a smooth ride. The only drawback to the big wheels is that it can be difficult to fold into smaller spaces. It comes with some impressive storage features that can make up for it! There's a large basket and an open pocket that zips up at the back.
