The versatile buggy can be used as a double or single. It comes with 17 different configurations to accommodate children from infants to toddlers and even a third using iCandy’s 'piggyback' board. It's also one of the slimmest side-by sides and can be pushed through doorways just like a single pushchair.

It's a light and compact stroller that has an easy fold that can be completed by one hand. It's also great over varying terrains and comes with a handy shopping basket.

Adaptability

There are a variety of factors to consider when buying a double stroller. You'll want to make sure your children are safe, secure and happy as you explore new routes and places. Also, consider the overall price tag, size, weight and durability. A well-known brand (within your budget of course) will maximize the resale value as well as speed up the buying process later on.

There are two kinds of double buggies with three wheels, based on the number of children you'll be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. The buggies that are side-by-side tend to be smaller, but they have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. Despite this there are some smart models on the market that manage to keep their dimensions down like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy on the market. It even fits through narrow doors.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger. They start as a single stroller and can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby baby because of their clever seat layouts. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple by the addition of a "Piggy Back" board.

The iCandy Orange is another super-smart tandem buggy with an exclusive 'cinema seating' design that allows the rear seat to be raised or lowered to different positions so you can change how your children sit in it. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating configurations and is ideal for parents with young children at different stages of development.

The phil&teds sports is another good alternative. This world-first, multi-award winning buggy will future proof your budget by acting as an excellent single from the beginning and then adjusting to take 2 (or 3!) as your family grows all within the same footprint of one buggy! This is made possible by the innovative sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers greater maneuverability, stability, and the ability to pop kerbs.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double pushchairs with 3 wheel twin stroller wheels are easier for you to maneuver and control than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide, resulting in less weight on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a great illustration. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy available and has a footprint the same as one buggy. It is perfect for parents who are concerned about fitting into doors or using public transportation. Plus, the fact that it can also be used with twins or 2 carrycots/car seats makes it a great option right from birth.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a great lightweight buggy that's perfect for urban life, yet also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins, a baby and a toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its light frame ensures it can be carried and lifted easily too. The only downside is that it's a little more difficult to manage than other models on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you plan to utilize your buggy for long jogs or walks, then you should spend more money on a model that can take on rough terrain. Choose a cheap 3 wheel buggy-wheel model with big rear wheels to withstand bumps, plus a suspension system that can absorb shocks. The front wheels should be fixed to give you more control over difficult terrain, and allow you to easily push around corners.

Double buggys that work for two children will give you to alter the seating to ensure that both children be comfortable. The best options have reclining seats and adjustable footrests for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for shopping, car keys, and phones.

A smooth fold mechanism is another feature to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps beneath the seats to pull the buggy apart or a lever that releases a catch and folds the frame into half within a matter of a few seconds. Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, making them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet has won many awards and is a side-by-side with great flexibility for twins or siblings. Its innovative frame expands in width to accommodate a second seat or carrycot, while still having the same footprint as a single stroller. This means that it can be used through doors and on public transport. It's a bit heavier than some other models, but its smooth ride and simple handling make the difference.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side with 30 seating configurations to fit any need. It's a great option for twins as the seats can be parent-facing, and can convert to a tandem pushchair with an extra seat/carrycot at the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheel buggy three-wheel model is ideal for daily use. It's not nearly as expensive as other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel mean it's more difficult to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. It's simple to push and can also be used as a running buggy, with the addition of a separate child carrier for running.

Safety

phil&teds sport can take 2 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 around PS120). The dual front swivel wheels with superior maneuverability and a convenient foot brakes make it extremely secure. Its parent tray is bigger than many double buggies with a lighter weight and the canopy has peekaboo windows to improve visibility.

Its suspension is able to handle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds into a compact form in just a few seconds. The adjustable handlebar features a handbrake for added safety. The seats are reversible which means you can decide to have your children facing forward or have the parents facing each other - great for twins and siblings of different ages.
