Comfort
If you're planning to use your buggy for long walks or for jogging, it's worth investing in a model that can take on rough terrain. Choose a 3 wheeled pushchair-wheel model with large rear wheels to withstand bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be securing ideally to give you better control on difficult terrain, and also to allow you to easily push through corners.
