These buggys often have oversized front tires that can handle bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some models even come with a lockable front wheel for extra stability on uneven terrain.

It's important to remember that 3-wheel buggies have lower centers of gravity than 4-wheeled versions which means they could fall more easily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry to ensure they remain solid in all conditions. They should be able to turn on a dime and be able to be controlled with one hand. They also have the ability to rotate 360o on the front wheel which is ideal for maneuvering over difficult terrain.

Look for models with pneumatic tyres. These are designed to work on tracks that are not paved, and should be able to handle mud, gravel, rocks and other debris.

Seating

There are a myriad of alternatives for seating options in 3 wheelers. For babies, there is the option to use the carrycot and (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cozy and comfortable lying flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy) In addition, older babies and toddlers can use the parent-facing or world-facing seat unit that is roomy and padded and does have adjustable ventilation.
