Stability

With four wheels and a central point of gravity that is balanced by the weight of your child's seat, buggies with four wheels are generally considered to be more stable than triwheelers. However, that doesn't mean an older model with three wheel pushchairs wheels isn't worth a look, since some of them are built to cope with anything from rough terrain to busy high streets.

For a buggy that's easy to handle and will not be a problem on bumpy roads, look for a model with large rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. These buggies for all-terrain use also have pneumatic tires that are perfect for handling non-paved surfaces. They can be used even on sandy beaches or tracks in woodlands.

They're also great buggies to jog with because they provide great stability on rougher terrain and can help you stay with your running partner. They're also excellent at climbing and descending steep kerbs as well and a majority come with suspension built-in that means your baby will enjoy a comfortable ride.

A stroller with three wheels isn't easy to maneuver because of its wide frame. It is more difficult to maneuver through doorways and narrow spaces than a 4-wheeler. However certain manufacturers have addressed this issue by implementing an innovative design that makes the wheels turn up when they are not in use, which reduces their overall size and helps you get through doors without difficulty.

You'll also have to think about whether your buggy is suitable for your child from birth or if you're planning on using it in conjunction with an infant car seat or carry cot. Find out if the buggy comes with an option to lie flat and if it is compatible with a second seat and buggy boards if you plan to bring a toddler along. Many 3-wheelers fold flat and be positioned upright when collapsed which is useful if you have a limited space in your car boot or limited storage space at home. However, some require you to remove the front wheel prior to folding if you want it to fit into more compact space.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled buggies usually provide better maneuverability than pushchairs with four wheels. A majority of them have an swivelling wheel at the front that allows you to control and change direction with just one hand. Certain models come with wheels that lock to offer stability on rough terrain. Certain models can be used with an additional seat or buggy board in case you want to expand your family.

It can also be modified to accommodate babies from birth using a lie-flat seat or carry cot, in addition to being compatible with the majority of popular second seats and buggy boards.

Fabric Sling Seat

The key difference between a fabric sling and modular seats is that the fabric sling is placed comfortably inside the frame of the buggy instead of being positioned on top as a modular seat would. This allows for a more ergonomically-correct posture for the baby, which instantly delivers a lower centre of gravity that is at the proper height. This in turn makes for an easier push, a less hefty curb pop (you don't need as much weight and effort to push the buggy over the curb's edge) and better balance and stability.
