It is suitable for babies from birth, with the carrycot plus (a comfortable lie-flat baby bed) and it can also be converted into an active double buggy.
Easy to Manoeuvre
If you select a 3 wheel buggy, you're aiming for flexibility and lightness of handling. This type of pushchair has one wheel in the front and two wheels at the back, which makes them really easy to turn on sixpence, and they can overcome bumps and high kerbs effortlessly.
Choose a buggy equipped with pneumatic tyres and an excellent suspension if you plan to take it off-road. MFM reviewer Kath was "really impressed by the way it performed on off-road walks and difficult terrain," noting that "it handled cobbles and grass bumpy surfaces, as well as dirt tracks very well."
If you're thinking of buying a 3-wheel buggy to accommodate the newborn, ensure that the sling seat made of fabric is oriented towards the parents, or think about modulars that convert into a carrycot or an infant car seat, such as Mountain Buggy's carrycot plus (which features a cozy, lie flat bed certified for overnight sleeping) or sport verso (which grows with your child from day dot with the use of a fabric sling to modular seat). All of their 3-wheel buggies pass the same safety standards and stability tests as their 4-wheel models! To give you even more stability, they have a 16" rear wheel that has a lockable front swivel that is ideal for jogging. You can stay fit while pushing your children.

A lot of these lightweight strollers and buggy models come with a convenient carry bag that makes it easier to carry your pushchair around.
