Adaptability
There are many things to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You’ll want to ensure your children are safe, comfortable and content as you explore new routes and sights. You should also take into consideration the cost and size, weight and the durability. Selecting a brand that is well-known (within your budget, of course) will help maximise the resale value as well as speed up the buying process later on.
Depending on the amount of children you’ll need to carry There are two main kinds of double buggy with 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. The side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller, but they have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. Despite this there are a few super-smart models available that manage to keep their dimensions down such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy on the market. It can even fit through narrow doors.
Tandem buggies are generally larger. They begin as a single stroller but can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby baby because of their innovative seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional “Piggy Back” board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another stylish tandem buggy that features a unique ‘cinema seat design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in different positions. This allows you to choose from 30 different seating options. It is ideal for parents of children at different developmental stages.
Another option is Phil&teds sport. This world-first, multi award winner buggy will protect your pocket by starting as a fantastic single from day one and then adjusting to take two (or 3!) as your family grows – all within the same footprint of a single buggy! The sling seat is the most important element to this. It is ideal for infants, and provides superior stability, manoeuvrability and the ability to kerb-pop.
Manoeuvrability
In general the double buggy with 3 wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double Pushchairs And Prams with four wheels. This is due to the fact that the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide and resulting in less weight on them. This means they can be pushed more easily, and will also be much easier to manoeuvre upwards and downwards on kerbs.
A great example of this is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. It is ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or on public transportation. Additionally, the fact that it can also be used with twins or two car seats/car carrycots allows it to be used at any time from birth.
UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a great lightweight buggy that is ideal for urban life, but also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It is suitable for twins as well as a Premium Baby Jogger Stroller for Active Parents and toddler due to its four-wheel suspension and big rear wheels. It’s lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only downside is that it’s a little more difficult to manage than other models on uneven ground.
Comfort
If you’re planning to use your buggy for long walks or for jogging, it’s worth investing in one that can be able to handle rough terrain. Look out for a 3-wheel model with big rear wheels to withstand bumps, plus a suspension system that can absorb shocks. The front wheels should be mounted to give you more control on difficult terrain, and enable you to maneuver around corners.
A quality double buggy will allow you to alter the seat positions so both children are comfortable. The most effective double buggys have adjustable footrests as well as reclining seats for older children. There’s plenty of space to store your groceries keys, phone, and keys.
A smooth fold mechanism is another thing to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts like models with straps underneath the seats that allow the buggy to be pulled apart, or a lever to release a catch that folds the frame in half, which takes just a couple of seconds. Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not being used.
The Mountain Buggy Duet has won numerous awards and is a side-byside that is a great choice for twins or siblings. The clever frame can be expanded to take the second seat (or carrycot) and still 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 and comfortable ride makes up for it.
iCandy’s Orange Convertible, another popular side-byside, offers a massive 30 seating options that can be modified to meet your needs. It’s a great option for twins as the seats can face the parents and can be converted into a tandem pushchair.
The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight three-wheel option that’s ideal for daily use. It’s not as big or as expensive as other models, but its narrow turning radius and fixed front wheel make it difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It’s easy-to-push and can be used as a running buggy by including a separate child carrier.
Safety
The phil&teds sport is able to take two children in a variety of ways, from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even cope with three if you use their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for around PS120). It is especially safe because of its dual front swivels that are swivels at the front, maneuverability, and a convenient footbrake. The parent tray is larger than most lightweight double buggies and the canopies have windows that can be opened to enhance visibility.
