Suspension
The quality of the suspension in a 3 wheel umbrella stroller wheel double buggy is vital to how it will be easy for you and your baby/s to push. A smooth ride is vital because babies feel every bump on the road, especially if it’s on rough terrain like grass or paths that aren’t paved. Some models have locking front tires to assist in maneuvering and getting over obstacles like curbs.
Certain models come with air-filled tyres that are ideal for all-terrain rides, but they can be prone punctures. Be sure to keep an extra set of tyres inside the trunk. Certain models come with foam or gel-filled tyres that are designed to absorb bumps. They can be less likely to puncture, however they might be uncomfortable for your child should you decide to jog.

Folding

There are models that fold flat and stand up (as when they were in a pushchair) as well as ones that pop out to reveal more of an umbrella-style fold, with an electric brake. In general the more wheels a buggy comes with the more able it will be to maneuver on rough terrain. This is particularly true if your wheels are larger than typical size. You will have more stability, and it will be less likely that you need to flip or tip your child.
