20 Trailblazers Leading The Way In Double Buggy

A Double Buggy Is a Must-Have For Families With Two Kids

A double buggy is essential for families with more than one child. You can travel through urban streets or off-road trails easily while keeping your kids comfortable and happy.

When selecting a double stroller, there are a lot of things to consider. Check that it can fit through your car boot and through your doorway when folded.

Lightweight

It's exciting to bring the second child home however, there are a lot of practical issues to be considered. The addition of another child to the family can mean redesigning living spaces, rethinking car seats, and of course, investing in the latest double buggy.

There are a variety of alternatives available regardless of whether you're looking for twins or simply want something narrow. Our lab experts love the iCandy Peach, which comes with a range of accessories that rival brands cost extra for and folds very neatly into place to occupy a tiny space in your boot. It rolls smoothly and is a breeze to move. However, it could seem a bit long if you're in double mode.

The side-by-side buggies are great for keeping kids together but they are slightly larger than a single stroller. This can make it difficult to move through kerbs and up and down. The Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury is the slimmest side-by-side on the market and, at 63cm, it's the same width as a single and double stroller pushchair. It is easy to maneuver through doors and onto public transport. It is compatible with many car seats and can grow with your family. You can use it as mono or tandem buggy once your children are old enough to sit together.

The suspension is excellent for rough terrain, and its adjustable height makes steering a breeze. It's great for older children since the seat is elevated in a stadium style. This provides them with a better view of the action. It's not as lightweight as other models, but it's still a great option.

You'll be pushing your double buggy a lot so it's important to look for a model that feels at ease to push. Find a handle with padding and a grip made to fit your height. Also, a large basket with lots of compartments and pockets. When you're not using your buggy, it's worth taking a look at how it folds and can be stored.

Easy to Manoeuvre

There are some incredible new double buggies available that make going out and about with two kids much easier. The iCandy Orange, for example, is a multi-purpose option that can be used to accommodate twins or one baby and a toddler with both carrycots/seats facing forward or backwards. It can also accommodate a third child with piggyback's board (sold separately). Its sleek, light frame with swivel front wheels, swivel rear wheels and suspension ensure it's easy to manoeuvre around town and over rougher terrain.

Other models with side-by-sides, like the Joie Evalite Duo are also incredibly lightweight and have a small footprint, which makes them easy to fit through doors and on public transport, and often you can put them away with the seats still in place. They require more effort to push over kerbs and can be tricky on uneven surfaces. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another ideal option since it can take both seats/carrycots in tandem, but can also be used as a single stroller thanks to its clever frame that can be expanded widthways, and a height-adjustable handle making it really simple to steer with just one hand.

If you're planning to use public transport a lot, consider whether you'll require a double buggy with big wheels, as they are able to cope better with rough or uneven surfaces. Consider how easy it will be to fold and unfold, as well as the width of the buggy folded to see if it will fit into your boot. If you live in a small town or village with narrow streets, consider a tandem double buggy (read this post from Moparwiki) where the child sits behind the other, instead of directly in front of them, since this makes it easier to navigate tight spaces.

There are two kinds of double buggys that are tandem and twin. In tandem the seat is placed behind the other. The primary benefit of a twin buggy is that your children can interact instead of having to switch places or argue over who gets the prime spot. However, twin buggys are usually wider and may be difficult to navigate through doorways and supermarket aisles.

Tandem buggies are usually slightly shorter than single models, but are still longer. They are also less stable and might require dismantling to fit in your car's boot. The majority of double buggies come with an recline that is independent and recline, which is now a standard feature. Be sure that the model has the ability to adjust each child's seats to the position they're most comfortable in.

Comfort

Look out for padding on the straps, the amount of recline each seat can achieve and if the seats are adjustable independently to allow you to adjust them as your children develop. Be sure to check the weight limit, and if both have a hood or sun canopy that protects from rain and wind.

They can be used by toddlers who want to walk but need a ride on board and they are also ideal for infants and newborns. Some carriers can also be used with a car seat for children to give you more flexibility.

Some parents believe that a side by side double buggy is the most convenient option. However there are a few innovative models on the market, like the Mountain Buggy Duet Luxurious in herringbone. It is the lightest double buggy side by side available on the market.

The Wave tandem buggies made by Mamas & Papas are another smart choice. They offer more configuration options than other tandem buggies. It starts as a mono-pushchair, and you can then add a second or carrycot to the frame with adaptors. This provides you with a variety of seating options.

You just pull up on the two straps (one under each seat) and you can fold the whole thing in seconds.
