Adaptability

There are a variety of factors to take into consideration when purchasing a double stroller.

There are two types of double buggies that have 3 wheel pushchair With car seat wheels, depending on the number of children you will be carrying: side-by-side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies are smaller than front-facing designs however, they have bigger footprints. Despite this, there are some super-smart models available that are able to keep their size down, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the slimmest side-byside buggy on the market and can fit into narrow doorways!

Tandem buggies on the other hand, are often larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair and can then be adjusted to accommodate an additional seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby child with a newborn due to their clever seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple with the addition of a "Piggy Back" board.

The iCandy Orange is another super-smart tandem buggy that has a unique 'cinema ' seating design that allows the rear seat to be lowered or raised to different positions, so you can alter the way your children are seated.

The sling seat is the most important element to this. It is ideal for infants, and provides superior stability, maneuverability, and kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys with cheap 3 wheel buggy wheels are easier to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less wide and result in a lighter weight. This means that they can be pushed more easily and will also be easier to manoeuvre upwards and downwards on kerbs.

An excellent example is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy on the market and has a footprint the same as one buggy.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a fantastic lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban living and also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used by twins or a baby and toddler thanks to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a little more difficult to manage than other models 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 is able to take on rough terrain. Consider a three-wheel model with large rear wheels to withstand bumps, and a suspension system that can absorb shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be anchored to give you more control over difficult terrain and allow you to easily push around corners.

The best models include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests that can be adjusted for older children. There's plenty of space to store your items phones, keys, and even keys.

Another thing to look out for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats to take the buggy apart, or a lever that triggers a catch that folds the frame into half in just a few seconds. Some models can be folded with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.
