Adaptability

When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's plenty to think about. You'll want to ensure your children are comfortable, safe and content as you explore new routes and sights. You'll also want to consider the overall cost as well as the size, weight, and durability. A trusted brand (within budget) will boost resales and make purchasing simpler.

Based on the number of children you have to carry, there are two types of double buggy 3 wheeled pushchairs wheels: front-facing and side by side. Side-by-side buggies tends to be smaller but have a larger area than front-facing models. However there are a few super-smart models available which manage to keep their dimensions down, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy available. It even fits through narrow doors.

Tandem buggies are generally larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair and can be rearranged to accommodate a second seat or carrycot 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 by adding the optional "Piggy Back Board".

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat' design. It lets you adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating configurations and is ideal for parents who have young children who are at very different stages in development.

The phil&teds sports is also a great option. This first-of-its-kind, multi award winning buggy will help protect your budget by acting as a fantastic single from day one and then adjusting to take 2 (or 3!) as your family grows - all within the same footprint of a single buggy! This is possible thanks to the genius sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers superior manoeuvrability, stability and kerb pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double pushchairs that have 3 wheel umbrella stroller wheels are easier to maneuver and manage than double pushchairs with four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less wide, resulting in a lighter weight. They are easier to push and are also much easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a excellent illustration. It is the tiniest tandem buggy on the market and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. This makes it perfect for parents who are worried about fitting through doorways or on public transport. It can be used as early as birth, as it can be used to accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. It's a light buggy that's perfect for urban life, but also able to ride on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins or a baby toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's slightly harder to handle than some other models when walking on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you intend to use your buggy for long walks or for jogging, it's worth investing in a model that can take on rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that can withstand the bumps and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be securing optimally to give you better control over rough terrain, and also to allow you to easily push through corners.

A quality double buggy can allow you to alter the seating positions to ensure both children feel comfortable. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable footrests as well as reclining seats 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 look out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps under the seats to remove the buggy from the frame or a lever that opens a catch that folds the frame into half in a matter of minutes. Some models can even be folded with the seat removed to make them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet has won many awards and is a side-byside that is a great choice for twins or siblings. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and yet has the same footprint as a single buggy which means it'll fit through doors and public transport. It's a little heavier than some other models but its smooth ride and effortless handling makes the difference.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side that offers a huge 30 seating configurations to suit every need. It's an excellent choice for twins, since the seats can be positioned to face the parents and can be converted into an iCandy tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight 3 wheeler stroller-wheel option that's suitable for daily use. It's not as big or more expensive than other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel make it trickier to manoeuvre between kerbs. It's easy to push though and can also be used as a running buggy by the addition of a separate child carrier for running.

Safety

The phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit and even handle 3 wheel stroller with infant car seat if you use their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for about PS120). Its dual front swivel wheel that are extremely maneuverable and the handy foot brake make it a particularly safe. The tray that it is on is larger than most lightweight double buggies and the canopies have windows that peek out to increase visibility.

It also has a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats can be reversed so that you can put children facing forward or parents facing each other which is ideal for twins and siblings.
