Why Buy a 3 Wheeler Buggy?
If you enjoy running in the morning, the three-wheeled buggy could be a good choice for you. They are equipped with larger wheels, which offer a smoother and more comfortable ride, but can be bulkier to store and require a larger car boot.
If you want to use your pushchair for outdoor walks should consider models with air-filled tyres (also known as pneumatic) - they cope well on rough ground and can have a swivelling front wheel that can be locked for greater stability.
What is a three-wheeler buggy?
A 3-wheel buggy is a great option for off-roading or navigating around town. They are easy to handle and can turn on a dime and pass all stability tests. A fabric sling seat sits snug inside the frame, instead of sitting over it like modular seats - this design provides lower center of gravity to allow for more comfortable pushing and less slams on curbs (you do not have to put as much weight or effort into popping your buggy over a curb). Mountain Buggy(r) even comes with the first of its kind sports verso(tm), a 3 wheelin' inline chassis that expands with your family - from a parent's face infant carrier to toddler ride-on board.
Are you going to take a trip off road?
It is crucial for those who want to travel off-road and are more adventurous than their vehicle can handle rough terrain. You want a good suspension system that can absorb bumps, and large wheels with tyres filled with air to give you a great grip on rough surfaces. A lockable wheel on the front is an excellent feature to ensure stability while jogging over rough surfaces.
MFM reviewer Kath put this fun-loving buggy to the ultimate test by driving it over rough dirt tracks, cobbles, and grass with her infant and said that "it was able to tackle all of these in a breeze and was pleasant to run around in." The 16" rear wheels and the lockable "swivel" front wheel offer great stability for off-road paths or surfaces that are uneven. The tyres are also equipped with springs that are built-in to guarantee an easy ride.
Sport verso is a new world first. It's an amazing single buggy, however it is easily adapted to accommodate two (or more!) Once your family grows, you'll be able to use the same buggy. three wheeler pushchair sling seat fits snugly inside the frame, at the ideal height to ensure a perfect weight distribution, instantly giving you a much more comfortable push, a less hefty curb pop and superior maneuverability on any terrain.
Are you looking to 'go out and about'?
A three-wheeler has one front wheel and two wheels in the back and, depending on the model, the wheel can either be free to swivel or fixed in position so that the buggy travels in straight lines. Their USP is that they are extremely maneuverable and easy to steer and they will often come with suspension (which can be useful in difficult terrain) and air-filled tyres to ensure the ride is soft and comfortable. They are ideal for daily use in town, and will often be able to cope with kerb popping as well as being capable of going off road too.
As with all buggys, it is essential to drive responsibly and not to be distracted by your tablet, mobile phone, or other device. Avoid driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs as it could affect your judgment and reaction time. If you do have an automobile boot to store your buggy be sure to verify the size of its footprint once it is fully folded so that it will fit in your vehicle.
If you want a buggy that can transport you from the park to the shops, look for one with large shopping baskets and great features like an upholstered handle, a strong brake pedal (that will stop on an upward slope) and a large, extendable 50+ sun canopy. MFM reviewer Kath particularly liked the sling seat made of fabric that features an automatic lie-flat bed for newborns, and felt the seating was positioned perfectly within the frame for good weight distribution - but it was noted that the triangular frame is not the storage capacity of the four wheeler.
Are you looking to visit the park'
With the superb manoeuvrability that this fun-loving 3-wheeler can provide it is ideal for urban adventures too. MFM reviewer Kath tested it to the test and discovered it navigated grass, cobbles, and bumpy pavements easily. It was also able to navigate the city's kerbs because the seat sling made of fabric is placed snugly inside the frame at the perfect height to distribute weight.
This model is great for jogging too since it is equipped with lockable swivel wheels on the front and comes with a "snug & stretch' tyre that gives a really smooth ride when you are pounding the streets. The only downside to the huge wheels is that it might struggle to fit into some more compact spaces when folded. Luckily, it comes with impressive storage features to compensate for this! The basket is huge and a zippered rear pocket.
