The versatile buggy can be used as a double or single. It has 17 configurations that can accommodate children from newborns to toddlers, and even a third using iCandy's 'piggyback' boards. It's also one of the slimmest double strollers and can be used as a single pushchair.

Adaptability
There are a variety of factors to consider when buying a double stroller. You'll need to ensure your children are comfortable and safe while you explore new routes and sights. Also, consider the overall price tag as well as the size, weight, and durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within the budget) will maximize resale and make the buying process easier.
There are two types of double buggy with three wheels, based on the number of children you will be carrying: side by side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies are smaller than front-facing ones, but tend to have bigger footprints. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most sophisticated models available on the market. It is the tiniest buggy in the entire world. It even fits through narrow doorways.
Tandem buggies are generally larger. They are designed as a single stroller and can be adjusted by adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby child with a newborn because of their clever seat layouts. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple by adding the optional "Piggy Back Board".
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another smart tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in various positions. This allows you to choose from 30 different seating options. It is perfect for parents of children in different stages of development.
Another great option is the phil&teds sport. This multi-award-winning buggy is a first in the world that will safeguard your money in the near future. It begins as an amazing single, but can be modified to take two (or three!) As your family expands, you can utilize the same footprint as one buggy. This is made possible by the genius sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers superior manoeuvrability, stability and the ability to pop kerbs.
Manoeuvrability
In general Double buggy 3 wheel push chair wheels are much easier to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. The front wheels are smaller and narrower and result in being lighter in weight. This means that they will be moved more easily and will also be much simpler to manoeuvre between kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a great example. This is the slimmest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. This makes it perfect for parents worried about fitting in doorways or even on public transport. In addition, the fact it can also take twins or 2 carrycots/car seats means it can be used right from birth.
Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a great lightweight buggy that is perfect for city life and is also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used by twins as well as a baby and toddler due to its four-3 wheel stroller and car seat suspension and large rear wheels. Its light frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a bit harder to maneuver on uneven terrain than other models.
Comfort
If you're planning to utilize your buggy for long jogs or walks, it's worth spending more for one that is able to handle rough terrain. Consider a three-3 wheel stroller for running model with big rear wheels to take the bumps, plus a suspension system that absorbs shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be fixed to provide more control on difficult terrain and enable you to maneuver around corners.
A quality double buggy will allow you to alter the seat positions so both children feel 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.
Another thing to look for is a simple fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats that take the buggy apart, or a lever that triggers a catch that folds the frame in a matter of seconds. Some models fold with the seats removed, making them smaller when not being used.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side which offers great flexibility for siblings or twins. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and has a footprint the same as a single buggy, which means it'll fit through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models however its smooth ride makes up for it.
iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, has 30 seating options that can be altered to meet all needs. It's a great choice for twins as the seats can be facing parents and convert into a tandem pushchair with a seat/carrycot in the middle.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight three-3 wheel bassinet stroller model is ideal for daily use. It's not quite as large or costly as other models, but its fixed front 3 wheel stroller with car seat and a small turning radius make it more difficult to maneuver between kerbs. It's easy to push and can also be used as a running buggy with the addition of a separate child car for jogging.
Safety
The phil&teds sport is able to take two children in many ways from infant to toddler using their car seat adapters or twin kit, and can even cope with three if you use their piggyback board (which you buy separately for about PS120). It is particularly safe due to its dual front swivels, its superior maneuverability, and a handy footbrake. The parent tray is larger than most lightweight double buggies and the canopies have windows that can be opened to enhance visibility.
