Kath who is the editor of MadeForMums reviews, has tested one of these three-wheelers on tarmac, as well as on a variety of terrains. You can read her review here.

Stability

With four wheels and a central point of gravity that is balanced by the weight of your child in the seat, 4-wheel buggies are generally thought to be more stable than compact 3 wheel stroller-wheelers. Three-wheel buggies are worthwhile to consider as they are able to handle everything from rough terrain to busy streets.

Find a buggie with large rear wheels, and one that locks on the front. This makes it easier to drive and less likely to fall apart when you're on bumpy roads. These all-terrain buggies typically have pneumatic tyres as well, which are ideal for handling uneven surfaces and can be used on sandy beaches or tracks in woodland.

They are also the best buggies to be jogging with, as they provide excellent stability over rougher ground and can aid in keeping up with your running partner. They're also good at climbing and descending steep kerbs as well, and most of them have a built-in suspension that ensures your child will be able to ride comfortably.

One thing that can make a 3 wheel stroller with infant car seat-wheeled pushchair tricky to maneuver is the broad frame, which makes it difficult to squeeze through tight spaces and narrow doors than a four-wheeler. However certain manufacturers have addressed this issue with an innovative design that makes the wheels flip up when not being used, which reduces their overall size and helps you navigate through doorways easily.

You'll also have to consider whether the buggy you choose to use is suitable for your child from birth, or if you're planning on using it with an infant car seat or carry cot. Find out if the buggy comes with the ability to lie flat, and if it is compatible with second seat and buggy boards if you plan to bring a toddler along. A lot of 3-wheelers fold flat and can be stood upright when collapsed - handy if you have an insufficient car boot or only a little storage space at home. Certain 3-wheelers require you to remove the front wheel to fold them into smaller spaces.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled buggies generally provide better maneuverability than pushchairs with four wheels. They usually have a swivelling wheel on the front that lets you shift direction quickly and steer with only one hand. Some models come with a lockable wheel that can provide stability on rougher terrain. Some models can even be used with an additional seat or buggy board if you're looking to grow your family.

If you plan to remove your three-wheeled buggies from the roads that are asphalted, you should choose an option with pneumatic tyres. They can handle even the most difficult terrain. These tyres might need to be regularly pumped up from time time, but they will be more durable and puncture-proof compared to solid tyres. You should choose models with an adjustable front wheel that is locked to help you navigate difficult terrains.

When folded, three-wheelers can be heavier than buggies with four wheels because of the single wheel in front. Check that the model you pick fits inside your car's boot and can be set up in a straight line if needed. Certain models can be folded using one hand, and can be raised when folded. This can save space in the boot of your car.

A good 3 wheel double pushchair 3 wheeler will be able to deal with any terrain, from busy high streets to tracks through woodlands. However, it is important to consider what you'll be using it for in the daytime. If you'll be running the school run, it ought to be able to handle steep kerbs and slopes. If you'll be jogging with it, check that it has an adjustable swivelling'stretch' lockable front wheel to ensure that the ride is stable.

Fabric Sling Seat

The main difference between a seat made of fabric and a modular seat is the fabric sling. It sits inside the frame of the buggy as opposed to being placed on top like an adjustable chair. This makes it easier to maintain an ergonomically correct position of the baby, resulting in a lower center of gravity that is the ideal height. This results in a smoother push, a lighter curb-pop (you do not 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 extremely durable and easy to clean. Made specifically for sling chair applications in mind, these fabrics are incredibly durable and breathable. These fabrics are also very easy to maintain with mild soap and warm water.
