Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

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

This is a compact and lightweight stroller that folds up easily with one hand. It's also suitable for different environments and comes with a convenient shopping bag.

Adaptability

When it comes to purchasing a double buggy, there's plenty to consider. You'll need to make sure your children are comfortable and safe as you explore new sights and routes. You'll also want to consider the overall cost size, weight, and durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget, of course) will increase resale value and a smooth purchase later on.

There are two types of double buggy with three wheels, based on the number of children you will be carrying: side-by-side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller than front-facing models, however, they have a larger footprint. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most sophisticated models available. This is the smallest buggy in the entire world. It can even fit through doorways that are narrow.

Tandem buggies on the contrary, are usually larger. They usually start out as a single pushchair, but can then be adjusted to take an additional seat or carrycot with adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins or a toddler and baby or a child and a newborn thanks to their clever seating configurations. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple by adding the optional "Piggy Back Board".

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with a unique 'cinema seat design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in various positions. This lets you choose from 30 different seating options. It is ideal for parents with children at different developmental stages.

The phil&teds sports is a great alternative. This multi-award winning buggy is the first of its kind that will safeguard your money in the near future. It is initially an incredible single and can be adapted to take two (or three!) As your family expands, you can use the same footprint of a single buggy. The Sling seat is the key to this. It is ideal for infants, and provides superior stability, manoeuvrability and kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double 3 wheeled pushchairs with 3 wheel stroller for running wheels are more comfortable for you to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs with four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less wide and result in less weight. They are easier to push and are also much easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

An excellent example is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest tandem buggy on the market and has the same footprint as a single stroller. This makes it perfect for parents worried about fitting in doorways or on public transport. It is suitable from birth, since it can be used to accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It is a light buggy that is ideal for urban life and is 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 light frame means it can be carried and lifted easily. The only drawback is that it's a bit harder to maneuver on uneven terrain than other models.

Comfort

If you plan to take your buggy out for long walks or for jogs it's a good idea to invest in a model that is able to handle rough terrain. Choose a model with three wheels with large rear wheels that can withstand the bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be mounted optimally to give you better control on difficult terrain and enable you to push through corners.

A good double buggy will allow you to alter the seating positions so that both children are able to sit comfortably. The best 3 wheel stroller with car seat models have reclining seats and adjustable footrests for children older than. You'll have plenty of space to store your shopping keys, phone, and keys.

Another thing to look for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever to open an opening that folds the frame in half, taking only a few seconds or so. Some models can fold with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet has won numerous awards and is a side by side with great flexibility for twins or siblings. Its clever frame can be expanded to accommodate the carrycot or second seat, while still having 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 and comfortable ride makes up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side with 30 seating configurations to fit all needs. It's an excellent choice for twins since the seats can be facing parents and can be converted into a tandem pushchair with a seat/carrycot in the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheel bassinet stroller-wheel option is ideal for everyday 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 maneuver through kerbs. It's easy to push and can be used as a running buggy by adding a separate child carrier.

Safety

Phil&teds Sports can accommodate 2 children in multiple ways. From infant to toddler, with their car seat adapters, or twin kit. They can even accommodate 3 wheel all terrain buggy kids if you purchase their piggyback board separately (around PS120). It is especially safe due to its dual front swivels, its superior maneuverability, and the convenient footbrake. Plus, its parent tray is bigger than most double buggies, and the canopies feature peekaboo windows for better visibility.

This award-winning side-by-side double buggy is the slimmest fully-featured all-terrain double available on the market. It has the same footprint as a single-buggy, which means it is easy to push through doors and taken on public transport. Its remarkable suspension can tackle difficult terrain with ease and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds down to the perfect resting spot in just a few seconds. The adjustable handlebar features a handbrake for added safety. The seats can be reversible, so you can choose to have the children facing forward, or the parents facing one another - perfect for twins and siblings of different ages.
