Adaptability
When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's lots to consider. You'll need to make sure your children are safe 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 the budget) will maximize resale and make purchasing simpler.
Based on the number of children you have to carry There are two main kinds of double buggy 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. Side-by-side buggies tends to be slimmer but have a larger area than front-facing models. However there are some smart models on the market which manage to keep their dimensions down like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy available. It even fits through doorways that are narrow.
Tandem buggies, on other hand, are often larger. They start as a single stroller, but can be adjusted by adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can take twins or a toddler and baby or a child and newborn due to their clever seating configurations. 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 a unique 'cinema seat' design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. 3 wheeled pushchair allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating arrangements and is ideal for parents with young children at different stages of development.
The phil&teds sports is a excellent alternative. This first-of-its-kind, multi award winning buggy will future proof your pocket by starting as a brilliant single from day dot and then adjusting to take 2 (or 3!) As your family grows, you can still utilize the same footprint as one buggy. This is possible thanks to the innovative sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers the best maneuverability, stability and the ability to pop kerbs.
Manoeuvrability
In general, double pushchairs with 3 wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double pushchairs that have four wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide and resulting in less weight on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much easier to move around kerbs.
One of the best examples is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest tandem buggy on the market and has the same footprint as a single stroller. It is ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or taking public transport. It can be used as early as birth, as it can be used to accommodate twins or two car seats/car carrycots.
UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. It's a light buggy that's ideal for urban life, yet also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It can be used for twins, or even toddlers due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. It's lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a bit more difficult to maneuver than other models on uneven ground.
Comfort
If you're planning to use your buggy on long walks or for jogs it's a good idea to invest in one that can take on rough terrain. Look for a 3-wheeled model with large rear wheels that are able to take the bumps, and a suspension system to absorb shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be fixed to give you more control over difficult terrain, and make it easier to push around corners.
Double buggys that work for two children will give you the flexibility to alter the seating so that both children will be at ease. The best options include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space to store your shopping, car keys, and phones.
Another thing to look out for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats that allow the buggy to be pulled apart, or a lever to release an opening that folds the frame in half in just a second or two. Some 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 widthways to take the second seat (or carrycot) and has the same footprint as a single buggy that means it can fit through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models, but its smooth ride makes up for it.
iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side model that has 30 seating configurations to suit all needs. It's a great option for twins since the seats can be oriented towards parents and convert into an a tandem pushchair that has a carrycot/seat in the middle.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3-wheel option is ideal for daily use. It's not nearly more expensive than other models, however its tiny turning radius and fixed front wheel make it trickier to manoeuvre through kerbs and up and down. It's easy to push and can be used as a running buggy by including a separate child carrier.
Safety
The phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 kids in multiple ways, from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even cope with 3 kids if you utilize their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for about PS120). The dual front swivel wheels, superior manoeuvrability and convenient foot brakes make it extremely safe. Additionally, the tray that it sits on is bigger than most double buggies that are lightweight and the canopies feature windows that peek out to improve visibility.
