Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

The versatile single-to-double buggy has 17 different options for sleeping and seating kids from infant to toddler and even the third option with iCandy's "piggy back board. It's also one of the slimmest side-by-sides that can fit through doorways just like a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds easily with one hand. It's also ideal for a variety of terrains and comes with a handy shopping basket.

Adaptability

There are a variety of factors to consider when buying a double stroller. You'll want to make sure your children are safe, secure and content while you discover new routes and sights. You should also take into consideration the cost as well as the size, weight and the durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within budget) will increase the chances of resales and make the buying process simpler.

Based on the amount of children you'll need to carry, there are two kinds of double buggy with 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. The side-by-side buggies tend to be slimmer but have a bigger area than front-facing models. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most innovative models on the market. This is the slimmest buggy available. It even fits through narrow doorways.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger. They are designed as a single stroller and can be adjusted with adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can be used to accommodate twins or a toddler and baby or a child and newborn thanks to their clever seating configurations. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple by incorporating the optional 'Piggy Back Board'.

The iCandy Orange is another super-smart tandem buggy with a unique 'cinema ' seating design that allows the rear seat to be lowered or raised to different positions so you can change how your children are seated. This allows you to select between 30 different seating arrangements. It is ideal for parents with young children in different stages of development.

The phil&teds sports is a good option. This multi-award-winning buggy is the first of its kind that will safeguard your money in the future. It starts out as an incredible single and can be modified to accommodate two (or three!) as your family grows - all within the same footprint as a single buggy! The Sling seat is the key to this. It's perfect for newborns and offers superior stability, maneuverability and kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double pushchairs that have 3 wheels are easier to maneuver and manage than double Pushchairs And Prams with four wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, making them less wide, resulting in less weight on them. This means that they will be moved more easily and will also be much simpler to manoeuvre upwards and downwards on kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a great model. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy available and has the same footprint as a single buggy. This makes it ideal for parents worried about fitting through doors or even on public transport. It is suitable from birth, since it can fit twins or two carrycots/car seats.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another option. This is a great lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban living and is also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used for twins, or even toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame ensures it can be carried and lifted easily too. The only issue is that it's a bit more difficult to maneuver than other models when walking on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you plan to utilize your buggy for long walks or jogs then it's worth spending more on one that can take on rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that are able to take the bumps and a suspension system to absorb shocks. The front wheels should be anchored to give you more control on difficult terrain and make it easier to push around corners.

A good double buggy allows you to adjust the seat positions so both children feel comfortable. The best models offer reclining seats and adjustable footrests for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for your shopping, car keys and phone.

Another thing to look for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that triggers a catch and folds the frame into half in a matter of minutes. Some models can even be folded with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side which offers the best flexibility for twins or siblings. The clever frame can be expanded in width to accommodate the carrycot or second seat, but still maintaining the same footprint as a single stroller. This means that it will fit through doors and on public transportation. It's heavier than other models, but its smooth ride compensates for the extra weight.

iCandy’s Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, has 30 seating options that can be adapted to meet all needs. It's a great option for twins, since the seats can be positioned to face the parents and transform into a tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheeled pushchairs-wheel option, is suitable for everyday use. It's not quite as large or expensive as other models, but its fixed front wheel and small turning radius make it difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's easy to push and can be used for running buggy by including a separate child carrier.

Safety

Phil&teds Sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways. From toddler to infant, using their car seat adapters, or a twin kit. They can even handle 3 kids if you purchase their piggyback board separately (around PS120). It is particularly safe due to its dual front swivels, its superior maneuverability, and a an easy footbrake. Its parent tray is bigger than the majority of double buggies that are lightweight and the canopy has windows that peek out to increase visibility.

This award-winning side-byside double buggy is the tiniest all-terrain model with full-featured features that is available. It has the same dimensions as a single-buggy, which means it can be easily pushed through doors and transported on public transport. Its suspension can tackle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts are thrilled that it can be folded down into a compact position within a matter of seconds. It also has a hand brake that is mounted on the adjustable handlebar for added safety.
