Adaptability
There are a lot of things to consider when buying a double stroller. You'll need to make sure your children are comfortable and safe while you explore new routes and sights. It is important to 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 purchasing easier.
Based on the number of children you have to carry, there are two main kinds of double buggy 3 wheel double buggy wheels: front-facing and side-byside. The buggies that are side-by-side tend to be smaller, but they have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. However there are some smart models available that are able to keep their dimensions down, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the smallest buggy on the market. It even fits through narrow doorways.
Tandem buggies on the other hand, are often larger. They usually start out as a single pushchair, but can later be adjusted to take a second seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby, or a child with a newborn because of their innovative seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be converted into a triple by the addition of a "Piggy Back" board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat' design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This lets you choose from 30 different seating configurations. It is perfect for parents with young children at different developmental stages.
The phil&teds sports is also a good option. This award-winning buggy is a world first that will protect your wallet in the near future. It starts out as an amazing single, but can be adapted to accommodate two (or three!) As your family grows, you can still make use of the same footprint of one buggy. The Sling seat is the key to this. It's ideal for newborns and provides greater stability, manoeuvrability and kerb-pop.
Manoeuvrability
In general the double pushchair 3 wheeler buggy with 3 wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double pushchairs with four wheels. This is due to the fact that the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less broad and which means less weight is placed on them. This means they can be pushed more easily, and will also be much easier to move up and down kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a excellent example. 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 on public transportation. It is suitable from the moment of birth, since it can accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.
UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a great light buggy that is ideal for city life and is also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used for twins, or even a baby and toddler thanks to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame means it can be carried and lifted easily. The only issue is that it's a little more difficult to handle than some other models when walking on uneven ground.
Comfort
If you intend to take your buggy out for long walks or for jogs it's a good idea to invest in one that can handle rough terrain. Consider a three-wheel model with large back wheels to withstand bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be mounted to provide more control on tricky terrain and enable you to maneuver around corners.
A quality double buggy allows you to adjust the seat positions so both children are 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 simple fold mechanism is another feature to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps under the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that can open a catch that folds the frame in half, which takes only a few seconds or so. Some models fold with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not being used.
The Mountain Buggy Duet has won numerous awards and is a side by side with great flexibility for twins or siblings. Its innovative frame expands in width to accommodate the second seat or carrycot yet still has the same footprint as a single stroller.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight 3 wheel push chair-wheel model that is suitable for use in everyday life. It's not quite as large or expensive as other models, but its fixed front wheel and a small turning radius make it difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's easy to push and can 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 a variety of ways from infant to toddler using their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even accommodate 3 wheel pushchair kids if you utilize their piggyback board (which you buy separately for about PS120).
