Adaptability

When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's a lot to think about. You'll want to make sure your children are comfortable, safe and content as you explore new routes and places. You should also consider the price as well as the size, weight and the durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget of course) will help maximise resale value and a smooth purchase process down the line.

Based on the number of children you have to carry There are two main kinds of double buggy 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. Side-by-side buggies tends to be smaller, but they have a bigger area than front-facing models. However, there are some super-smart models available that are able to reduce their size like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy in the world and can fit into narrow doors!

Tandem buggies, on the contrary, are usually larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair but can be rearranged to accommodate the seat of a second child or carrycot by using adapters. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby or a newborn because of their clever seat layouts. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back Board".

Manoeuvrability

This makes it perfect for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or even on public transport.

The only issue is that it's a bit more difficult to handle on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you're planning to use your buggy for long jogs or walks it's worth spending more money on a model that can handle rough terrain. Look out for a 3-wheel model with big rear wheels to withstand bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks.

Some models can even be folded with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.
