The versatile buggy can be used as a single or double. It comes with 17 different options to accommodate children ranging from newborns to toddlers, and even a third when using iCandy's 'piggyback' boards.

Adaptability

When you're looking to purchase a double buggy, there's a lot to think about. You'll want to make sure your children are comfortable, safe and content as you discover new routes and sights. You should also take into consideration the cost as well as the size, weight and durability. A well-known brand (within your budget of course) will help maximise the value of resales and ease the buying process later on.

There are two kinds of double buggies with 3 wheels, depending on how many children you will be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. Side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller than front-facing designs but tend to have larger footprints. Despite this, there are some super-smart models on the market that manage to reduce their size like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy on the market and it can even fit into narrow doors!

Tandem buggies are generally larger. They start as a single stroller but can be adjusted with adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby or a child and newborn due 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 stylish tandem buggy that features a unique 'cinema seat design. It lets you adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in various positions. This allows you to select from 30 different seating configurations. It is ideal for parents with children at different developmental stages.

The phil&teds sports is a great option. This multi-award-winning buggy is a world first that will safeguard your money in the near future. It is initially an incredible single and can be adapted to accommodate two (or three wheeler pushchair!) As your family expands, you can utilize the same footprint as a single buggy. This is made possible by the genius sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers the best maneuverability, stability and the ability to pop the kerb.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggy 3 wheels (linked web site) are more easy to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, making them less wide and result in less weight being placed on them. This means that they will be moved more easily and will also be much simpler to maneuver between kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic illustration. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy on the market, and has a footprint the same as one single buggy. It is perfect for parents who are concerned about fitting into doorways or taking public transport. Additionally, the fact that it can also be used with twins or 2 carrycots/car seats means it can be used at any time from birth.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a great lightweight buggy that is ideal for city life, yet also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins as well as a baby and toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. It's lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a bit harder to maneuver on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you plan to take your buggy out for long walks or jogs then it's worth spending more on one that can handle the rough terrain. Look for a 3 wheel pushchairs-wheeled model with large rear wheels that can take the bumps and have a suspension system that absorbs shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be mounted to give you more control over difficult terrain, and enable you to maneuver around corners.

A quality double buggy can allow you to alter the seat positions so both children are comfortable. The best models have reclining seats and adjustable footrests for children older than. There's plenty of room to store your groceries keys, phone, and keys.

A simple fold mechanism is another feature to look out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats that can pull the buggy apart or a lever to open an opening that folds the frame in half in just a couple of seconds. Some models fold with the seats removed, making them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side that offers an incredible range of options for siblings or twins. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate the carrycot or second seat, but still maintaining the same footprint as a single stroller. This means it can fit through doors and on public transportation. It's heavier than other models but its smooth ride and effortless handling make up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side that offers a huge 30 seating options to meet every need. It's a great option for twins, as the seats can face the parents and convert 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 costly as other models, but its fixed front wheel and a small turning radius make it difficult to navigate between kerbs. It's easy to push though and can also be used as a running buggy by the addition of a separate child carrier for jogging.

Safety

The phil&teds sport is able to take two kids in multiple ways from infant to toddler 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 about PS120). The dual front swivel wheels that are extremely maneuverable and the an easy foot brake make it especially safe. In addition, its tray is much larger than other double buggies, and the canopy has windows that can be opened to allow for better visibility.

This multi-award winning side-byside is the tiniest fully-featured all terrain 3 wheel stroller-terrain double buggy on the market. It has the same dimensions as a single-buggy, which means it is able to be easily pushed through doors and taken on public transport. Its suspension is able to handle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts love that it folds down to a compact size in a matter of minutes. It also has a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar to provide safety. The seats can be reversible so that you can put the children facing the front or parents facing each other ideal for siblings and twins.
