If you stop or turn abruptly, they may lose their stability and fall over. To avoid this, certain manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3 wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.
The additional wheel also allows you navigate off-road terrain. Look for models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres), which can handle off-road routes, sand and mud, and other surfaces like rocks and sand. These models will also feature wheels that lock on the front to increase stability over rough terrain.

The new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its astonishing ability to move despite its three-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath tried it out with her infant, and she said that "it did really well on bumpy surfaces, cobbles, dirt roads, gravel tracks, and a few hills."
Another great option is the latest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy made by Maxi-Cosi, a car seat manufacturer which is called Stella. It can be used from birth, if it is used in conjunction with a carrycot.

You should also think about the type of suspension you need. Suspensions that are strong are ideal to tackle humps and bumps however they can be quite heavy and add to the overall weight.
The size of the tyre can be crucial. Understanding how to read the tyre size is important for safety, performance and durability. The combination of letters and numbers on a tyre's sidewall may be at first, but decoding it allows you to understand the dimensions of the tyre. For instance, a tyre size of '185/70 R14 indicates that the tire is a 185/70 radial that has 14 inches of rim diameter.
In addition to being more durable, PU tires are also lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber ones. If you are unsure if the tires on a pushchair are made of rubber or PU, try sliding the tires on the surface with a smooth surface. If the tires move easily they are made of PU. If they don't, then the tires are composed of rubber.
Suspension

Safety
Four wheels make the buggy more stable, less likely to tip and easier to handle. It is also safer for your child because the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame.
