This multi-functional single to double buggy comes with 17 different configurations 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 can be pushed through doors 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 suitable for various terrains and comes with a handy shopping bag.
Adaptability
When it comes to buying a double buggy, there’s a lot to think about. You’ll need to make sure that your children are comfortable and safe as you travel new sights and routes. You should also take into consideration the price as well as the size, weight and the durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within budget) will increase the chances of resales and make the purchase process easier.
Depending on the number of children you need to carry There are two main kinds of double buggy 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. Side-by-side buggies are slimmer than front-facing models, however they tend to have larger footprints. However, there are some super-smart models on the market that manage to keep their size down such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the smallest buggy on the market. It even fits through narrow doors.
Tandem buggies, on the contrary, are usually larger. They typically start as a single pushchair but can be rearranged to accommodate a second seat or carrycot by using adapters. Some tandem buggies can be used to accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby or a child and newborn thanks to their innovative seating arrangements. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into 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. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in different positions. This gives you a choice 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 a great option. This multi-award-winning buggy is the first of its kind that will safeguard your money in the near future. It begins as an amazing single, but can be upgraded to take two (or three!) as your family grows – all within the same footprint as one buggy! The sling seat is the most important element to this. It is ideal for infants and provides greater stability, maneuverability, and the ability to kerb-pop.
Manoeuvrability
Generally speaking the double buggy with 3 wheel parent facing pushchair wheels are more easy to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs with four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and narrower and result in being lighter in weight. This means that they will be pushed more easily and will also be easier to move between kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a great example. It is the thinnest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. It is perfect for parents who are worried about fitting into doors or using public transport. It is suitable from the moment of birth, since it can accommodate twins or two car seats/car carrycots.
UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another option. This is a great light buggy that is ideal for urban life and also a great choice for more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used for twins or toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame means it can be lifted and moved easily too. The only drawback is that it’s a little more difficult to handle than some other models on uneven ground.
Comfort
If you plan to utilize your buggy for long walks or jogs then it’s worth spending more for one that is able to handle rough terrain. Consider a three-wheel model with large back wheels that can take the bumps, as well as a suspension system that can absorb shocks. The front wheels should be fixed in order to give you more control over rough terrain and to make it easier to navigate around corners.
A quality double buggy allows you to alter the seating positions to ensure both children feel comfortable. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable seating and footrests that can be reclined for older children. There’s plenty of room to store your shopping phones, keys, and even keys.
A smooth fold mechanism is another thing to look out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats to remove the buggy from the frame or a lever that releases an opening and folds the frame in half in just a few minutes. Some models can even fold with the seat removed, making them more compact when not in use.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side that offers an incredible range of options for twins or siblings. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and still has a footprint the same as a single buggy that means it can fit through doors and on public transport. It’s a bit heavier than other models, but its smooth ride and easy handling make up for it.
iCandy’s Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side model that has 30 seating configurations to fit any need. It’s a great option for twins, since the seats can face the parents and convert into a tandem pushchair.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight three-wheel model, is suitable 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 easy to push and can be used as a running buggy by adding a separate child carriage.
Safety
The phil&teds sports can be used to accommodate two children in multiple ways. From toddler to infant, with their car seat adapters, or a twin kit. They can even take care of three wheel pushchairs kids if you buy their piggyback board on their own (around PS120). The dual front swivel wheels, superior manoeuvrability and an easy foot brake make it a particularly safe. Plus, its parent tray is larger than on most lightweight double buggies and the canopies feature windows that peek out to improve visibility.
This award-winning side by side double buggy is slimmer than any other fully-featured all-terrain double available that is available. Its footprint is the same as a single buggy, so it is able to fit through doorways and on public transport. Its incredible suspension handles tough terrain like a pro and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds down into a compact resting position within a matter of seconds or two. The adjustable handlebar features a handbrake for extra safety. The seats can be reversible to allow the children facing one side or parents facing each other ideal for siblings and twins.
