MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these three-wheelers with her newborn and three year old, and put it through its paces on the asphalt and on the muddy ground. You can read her full review here.
Stability
Four-wheel buggies, with their centre of gravity balanced by your child's weight within the seat, are typically more stable than three-wheelers. However, that doesn't mean an older model with three wheels isn't worth considering, as some of these models are made to handle everything from rough terrain to busy high streets.
Choose a buggy that has large rear wheels and a lockable wheel on the front. This will make it more comfortable to drive and less likely to break apart when you're on bumpy roads. These all-terrain buggies often have pneumatic tyres, too. They are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces and can be used on sandy beaches or tracks in woodland.
They are also great buggies to jog with as they provide excellent stability on rougher terrain and aid you in staying with your running partner. They're also excellent at climbing and descending steep kerbs too, and most of them come with suspension built-in that ensures your child will enjoy a comfortable ride.
A stroller with three wheels can be difficult to maneuver because of its wide frame. It is more difficult to get through narrow spaces and doorways than a 4-wheeler. Some manufacturers have addressed this issue by using a clever design which flips the wheels upwards when they are not in use. This reduces their dimensions and makes it easier to maneuver through doors.
You'll also need to think about whether the buggy you choose to use is suitable for your baby from birth or if you're thinking of using it in conjunction with an infant car seat or carry cot. If so, ensure that it is in an upright position and if the design is compatible with other seats and buggy boards (if you'd like to add an infant onboard). A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat and be stood upright when collapsed and is handy if you have a small car boot or only a little storage space at home. Some 3-wheelers require you remove the front wheel in order to fold into smaller spaces.
Manoeuvrability
Three-wheeled buggies are more maneuverable than four-wheeled strollers. They often have a swivelling wheel on the front that lets you shift direction quickly and steer with only one hand. Some also come with a lockable front wheel which gives you security on more difficult terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board, should you decide to grow your family.
If you intend to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the roads that are asphalted it is recommended to choose a model that has pneumatic tyres. They can handle even the most difficult terrain. These tyres may require pumping up occasionally but will be far more durable than tyres that are solid and more likely to be puncture-proof. It is recommended to choose one with an adjustable front wheel that is locked to assist you in navigating difficult terrains.
The fact that there is only one front wheel may also indicate that three-wheelers can be heavier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Make sure the model you select can fit in the boot of your car and can be positioned in a straight line if needed. Certain models can be folded by one hand and can be raised when folded. This can save space in a small car boot.
A good three-wheel pushchair can be used on all terrains, from busy streets to forest tracks. It's important to think about how you will use it every day. If you'll be running the school run, it ought to be able to cope with steep kerbs and slopes. If you intend to jog with it, make sure it has a swivelling'stretch front wheel' that can be locked. This will help keep the ride smooth.
Kath, a MFM reviewer, found that her stroller on three wheels was able to handle urban and rural walks. She noted that it could navigate cobbles, rocky paths and uneven pavements with ease and felt pleasant to jog with too. It's also a great choice for day trips as it has plenty of storage space, including a huge and spacious basket that has a zip-top cover and an expandable 50+ UV hood. It can be adapted to meet the needs of a baby from birth, including the option of a carry cot or a lie-flat seat. It is also compatible with the most popular second seats and stroller boards.
Fabric Sling Seat
The main difference between a fabric and a modular seat is the fabric sling. It is a part of the frame of the buggy, rather than being positioned on top of it like a modular chair. This allows for a more ergonomically correct position of the baby, resulting in a lower center of gravity that is just the right height. This in turn makes for an easier push, a lighter curb pop (you don't require the same amount of effort and weight to push the buggy over the curb's nose) and better stability and balance.
These seats also come with Sling fabrics that are simple to clean and durable. These fabrics were developed specifically for sling chairs and are extremely UV-resistant and air-tight. They are also easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water.
If you're a jogger or like to do some off-roading, a all terrain 3 wheeler will be more suited to your needs than a 4-wheel buggy. These styles have a wider base and are more stable. They also have air-filled tyres that allow for smooth movement over rough terrain.

Modular seating can be easily adjusted to create a cozy place to watch films, or a spacious arrangement to entertain guests. A lot of modular seating systems come with removable cushion covers which make it easier to wash spills and stains.

3-wheel buggies are especially suitable for off-road and all terrain adventures as they have more stability than strollers with four wheels. The large, extremely maneuverable front wheel allows for agile and smooth movement, whilst the tyres are generally air-filled and feature suspension, providing an excellent ride on the roughest roads and trails. The wheels aren't as close to the ground on these pushchairs, as they are with 4 wheeled pushchairs. This makes them ideal for walking uphill.
