The Quinny Buzz 3 Three-Wheeler Buggy is a stylish, fashionable all-terrain buggy that has easily adjustable features, easy to clean fabric, quick release wheels, and efficient brakes.

Quinny Buzz 3: The Pros

Quinny is a brand known for having designs that are quite popular with young and fashion-conscious parents. If you are one, you probably like knowing which celebrities are spotted with their trendy pushchairs, and you probably like to know which exact model and colour they were pushing. Speaking of which, Myleen Klass and Charlotte Church had been spotted pushing Quinny Buzz 3 recently.

The Buzz is definitely a good looking stroller, but it’s not just all-looks-but-no-substance; in fact, it’s strong in many other areas, too. We think that the second strongest point of this 3 wheeler Buzz is that almost every feature is not just adjustable, but easily and conveniently adjustable:

• It has a reversible seat unit, so you can have your child facing away from or towards you.
• The adjustable handles are made with rubber-covered handlebars that are soft to the touch. The handle height can be adjusted from 101 cm to 110 cm – which is quite handy for tall people. It’s also great for couples with a sizable height difference between them. In my estimate the people who will find this handle height range comfortable are people from 5′4″ to 6′4″, but don’t take my word for it.

• The seat positions are adjustable – there are 2 recline positions in rearward-facing mode, and 3 recline positions in forward-facing mode
• The leg rest is adjustable, giving maximum comfort and leg support for your precious baby.

Another feature that caught our attention is the pneumatic tyres at the back. These air-filled tyres give a smooth, more comfy ride for your baby. If you have other things in your boot, you can actually remove these easy-release tyres for easier storage. With regards to the front wheels, the double swivel wheels at the front are lockable – which contributes to a less bumpy ride when you are on rougher terrains.

The brakes are quite simple to apply – step on the red pedal on the right for ‘on’ and grey on the left for ‘off’. It’s pretty straightforward, unlike the brakes of other pushchairs.

Other Pros worthy to note:

• Easy to use brakes
• Suspension
• Unique automatic unfolding system

Quinny Buzz 3: The Cons
Weighing almost 13 kg, some parents may find it heavy, but this is quite common of 3-wheeler buggies anyway.

The Quinny Buzz 3 does have a slight let down – the storage space. It’s actually just a clip-on zip-up changing bag that attaches at the bottom of the frame at the back of the baby pushchair. It’s not tiny, but it’s not big either and it’s not easily accessible. Also, if you are particularly long legged you may find yourself having to take shorter strides to avoid kicking the bag.

Some parents complained before about the automatic unfolding mechanism, saying that it sometimes unfolds when they didn’t want it to. However, this is most likely because they didn’t “lock” the pushchair by using the folding clip on the side (see the video below for a demo). You’ll need to use this clip to lock the pushchair and keep it folded.

Conclusion
The Quinny Buzz 3 Wheeler Buggy is a great all-round off-road pushchair that looks great, easy to use, easy to adjust, and fun to push. It can be heavy and bulky for some, and the storage space is quite limited, but over all we recommend the Quinny Buzz 3 because it’s a trendy, good quality pushchair that has a lot of useful and functional strong points.
