3 Wheeled Buggies
A 3-wheel buggy can be utilized for off-road trails and for traversing terrains such as uneven paths or woodland tracks. They are also easier to maneuver around kerbs than models with four wheels.
MadeForMums reviews editor Kath tried one of these 3-wheelers with her newborn and three year old, putting it through its paces on the road and on a rocky surface. You can read her review here.
Stability
Four-wheel buggies, which have their center of gravity being balanced by your child's weight within the seat, are typically more stable than three-wheelers. However, that doesn't mean the three-wheel buggie isn't worth a look, since many of them are built to withstand everything from rough terrain to busy high-streets.
If you want a buggie that is easy to maneuver and won't fall over on muddy roads, opt for a model with large rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires that are ideal for handling non-paved surfaces. They can be used on sandy beaches or tracks in woodlands.
These are also the best buggies for jogging with, as they provide great stability over rougher ground and can aid in keeping up with your running partner. They're also excellent at climbing and descending steep kerbs and a majority come with a suspension built in that ensures your child will have a pleasant ride.
A 3-wheeled stroller can be difficult to maneuver because of its wide frame. It can be more difficult to get through narrow spaces and doorways than a 4-wheeler. However, some manufacturers have tackled this issue by implementing an innovative design that makes the wheels turn upwards when not being used, which reduces their overall size, and allows you get through doors without difficulty.
If yes, make sure to check for a lie-flat position and if the design is compatible with second seats and buggy boards (if you plan to bring a toddler onboard). If so, ensure that it is in the ability to lie flat and if the design is compatible with second-seats and buggy boards (if you're planning to put a toddler onboard). A majority of 3-wheelers can fold flat, and then be stacked upright. This is a good option when you have an unwieldy boot space or have limited storage at home. Some 3-wheelers require you to remove the front wheel in order to fold them into smaller sizes.
Manoeuvrability
Three-wheeled buggies are more maneuverable than four-wheeled strollers. A majority of them have a swivelling wheel on the front which allows you to control and change direction with one hand. Some also have a lockable front wheel which gives you security on more difficult terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board, if you plan to expand your family.
If you are planning to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the roads that are asphalted it is recommended to choose a model with pneumatic tyres. They are able to handle the most difficult terrain. These tyres may require regular pumping but will be far more durable than tyres made of solid rubber and are more likely to be puncture-proof. You should look for a model that has an adjustable front wheel that is locked to help you navigate difficult terrains.
The fact that there is only one front wheel can also mean that three-wheelers tend to be heavier than buggies with four wheels when folded. Make sure the model you choose can fit in the boot of your car and can be raised in the event that it is necessary. Some models fold by one hand, and stand up when collapsed. This will save space in the boot of your car.
A good 3 wheel pushchair can cope with all terrains, from busy main streets to tracks through woodlands. It is important to consider what you'll be using it for every day. If you're planning to run the school run, it should be able to cope with steep slopes and kerbs. If you'll be running with it, make sure it has a lockable swivelling'stretch' front wheel to ensure that the ride is steady.
Kath, a MFM reviewer, was able to determine that her three-wheeled stroller was able to handle both urban and rural walks. She noted that it could navigate cobbles, rough paths and bumpy pavements effortlessly and was comfortable to run with too. It's also a great option for day trips since it is packed with storage space. This includes a large, spacious, zip-top covered basket 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's also compatible with the most popular second seats and stroller boards.
Fabric Sling Seat
The main difference between a fabric sling and modular seats is that the fabric sling is placed comfortably inside the frame of the buggy instead of sitting on top as a modular seat would. This allows for a more ergonomically appropriate position for the baby, resulting in a lower center of gravity that is the ideal height. This leads to a smoother push, a less hefty curb-pop (you don't have to exert as much effort and weight to lift the buggy off the curb) and more stability and balance.
The sling fabrics that are used in these types of buggy seats are also very hard-wearing and easy to clean. Made specifically for sling chair applications in mind they are durable and extremely breathable. They are also easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water.
If you're a jogger or you like off-roading, an all-terrain buggy is more suited to your requirements than a four-wheeler. These models have a larger base, are more stable and have air-filled tyres that allow for smooth, easy mobility over rough terrain.
A brand best known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added an all-new 3-wheeler to its lineup with the Stella. This all-terrain stroller boasts a large and spacious seat that can be placed either in the direction of the parent or facing the world. It can also recline flat and comes with an upgraded 5-point safety belt.

It is a real show-stopper.

Modular Seat
Modular seating can be arranged in a variety of ways to accommodate different seating requirements. Modular seating can be easily adjusted to create a cozy space to watch movies or a large arrangement for entertaining guests. A lot of modular seating systems include removable cushions which makes it easy to clean up spills or stain.
Modular Seating is available in a variety of styles to fit with your existing decor or as an accent piece. You can choose from a wide variety of colors, fabrics and shapes to design an elegant and modular seating design that fits your personal style. Many functional features are offered in modular seating, like hidden storage compartments that allow easy organization and decluttering of living spaces.
3-wheel buggies are more stable than strollers with four wheels, which makes them ideal for off-road or all terrain adventures. The large front wheel, which is highly maneuverable, allows for smooth and agile movement. The tyres, which are typically air-filled and come with suspension, provide an excellent ride on the most difficult roads and trails. They are also ideal for walking up hills since the wheels aren't as close to ground as they are on 4 wheel pushchairs.
Often, 3-wheel prams are a popular choice for parents who enjoy running and jogging with their child as they offer great agility and are more streamlined than their 4 wheel counterparts. The GB Upp XL for example is a sleek and polished aluminum frame, a quick one-hand fold and rear and forward facing seats. The Babyzen Yoyo has an all black frame, a carrycot that has a the ability to lie flat in full with air-filled tyres as well as three recline positions.

It all fits within the footprint of a single buggy.
