This versatile single to double buggy has 17 different options for sleeping and seating kids, from newborn to toddler, and even a third with iCandy's 'piggy back' board. It's also one of the slimmest side-by-sides and fits through doorways just like a single pushchair.
It's a lightweight and compact stroller, with an easy to use fold that can be completed with one hand. It's also ideal for a variety of terrains and also has an excellent shopping basket.
Adaptability
When you're looking to purchase a double buggy, there's lots to consider. You'll want to ensure your children are comfortable and safe as you explore new sights and routes. You should also consider the price as well as the size, weight and the durability. A trusted brand (within the budget) will increase the chances of resales and make the purchase process easier.
Based on the number of children you have to carry, there are two main kinds of double buggy 3 wheels: front-facing and side-byside. Side-by-side buggies tends to be slimmer but have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most sophisticated models on the market. It is the slimmest side-byside buggy on the market and it can even fit into narrow doors!
Tandem buggies are usually larger. They begin as a single stroller and can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins or a toddler and baby or a child and newborn thanks to their innovative seating arrangements. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed to a triple with the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back' board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with unique 'cinema-seat design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in different positions. This allows you to choose between 30 different seating arrangements. It is ideal for parents of children who are at different stages of development.
Another option is phil&teds sport. This world-first, multi award winner buggy will protect your budget by acting as a brilliant single from day dot and then adapting to take two (or 3!) as your family grows all within the same footprint as one buggy! This is possible thanks to the innovative sling seat that's ideal for babies and offers greater maneuverability, stability, and the ability to pop kerbs.
Manoeuvrability
In general, double buggys with 3 wheel pushchair with car seat wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. This is due to the fact that the front wheels are smaller, making them less broad and which means less weight is placed on them. This means that they will be pushed more easily, and will also be much simpler to maneuver upwards and downwards on kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic example. It is the thinnest tandem stroller available and has the same footprint as a single stroller. This makes it perfect for parents who are worried about fitting through doors or even on public transport. It is suitable from the moment of birth, since it can fit twins or two carrycots/car seats.
Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It's a fantastic, lightweight buggy that's ideal for urban life, but also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It is suitable for twins as well as a baby and toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its light frame makes it easy to lift and carry. It's only downside is it's a bit more difficult to maneuver on uneven ground as compared to other models.
Comfort
If you plan to utilize your buggy for long jogs or walks, then you should spend more on one that can take on rough terrain. Choose a 3 wheel pushchair-wheel model with big rear wheels to withstand bumps, plus a suspension system that absorbs shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be mounted to provide more control on difficult terrain, and enable you to maneuver around corners.
Double buggys that work for two children will allow you to adjust the seats so that both children will be comfortable. The best double buggys have adjustable seating and footrests that can be reclined for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space to store your shopping, car keys and phone.
A simple fold mechanism is another feature to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that triggers a catch that folds the frame in just a few minutes. Some models fold with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not being used.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side that offers great flexibility for siblings or twins. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and yet has a footprint the same as a single buggy which means it can be pushed through doors and public transport. It's heavier than other models, but its smooth ride makes up for it.
iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side model that has 30 seating configurations to suit all needs. It's a great option for twins because the seats can be oriented towards parents, and can convert to a tandem pushchair with a seat/carrycot in the middle.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight three-wheel model is ideal for everyday use. It's not as large or as expensive as other models, however its tiny turning radius and fixed front wheel mean it's trickier to manoeuvre through kerbs and up and down. It's simple to push and can be used as a running buggy by the addition of a separate child car for running.
Safety
The phil&teds sport is able to take two children in a variety of ways, from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit and even handle three if you use their piggyback board (which you buy separately for about PS120). The dual front swivel wheels, superior manoeuvrability and convenient foot brakes make it especially safe. Plus, its parent tray is much larger than other lightweight double buggies and the canopies have peekaboo windows for better visibility.
This award-winning side-byside double buggy is the slimmest, full-featured all-terrain double on the market. It has the same footprint as a single-buggy, which means it is able to be easily pushed through doors and transported on public transport. Its amazing suspension can handle the tough terrain like a pro and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds down into an uncomplicated resting position in just a few seconds. It also comes with a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats are reversible so that you can have the children facing the front or the parents facing one another ideal for twins and siblings.
