Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

If you have twins or children very close in age, a tandem double buggie is a great option. They're narrower than side-by-side buggies, and ideal for maneuvering tight spaces, such as doors, on public transport and rocky terrain.

Many also transform into travel systems that include two carrycots or car seats. They are often heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

There are a variety of options for adding a second seating or changing a single stroller into double. The UPPAbaby V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller. It is easily transformed from a single stroller to a dual by adding the seating area with a rumble. However, it's pricey and less maneuverable than other dual strollers since the second seat is placed in front of the front seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar option with a wide range of seating options, but lacks under-seat storage when used in doubles mode.

Other options include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels, and joggers with fixed wheels that can hold two children. They are more expensive but they are designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain, and come with more expensive resales.

Independent seat recline

If you need a double buggy that can transport children of various ages, you'll require a model with an recline independent for both seats. This will allow your older child to rest in the back while the baby is in the bassinet and reverse.

Consider the width of your pushchair and consider how easy it is for you to get through doors and on public transportation. If your doors are narrow, you might want to consider a side by side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint similar to a single stroller however can still accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally longer than side by side models, making them more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However they can also accommodate a wider range of combinations of seats/carrycots/car seats and can make the perfect choice for twins and siblings of different ages. They are priced higher than single to double buggies, but they're worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They'll also keep an impressive amount of value when sold once your children have outgrown it.

Another important feature to look out for is if the seat backs are able to recline independently of each other because this allows you to put your child in the ideal position for naps or watching. This is particularly important if you have a young child in the rear seat who may prefer to lay back and sleep while the older child wants to sit up and look around their surroundings.

Some brands feature a unique design for their seats that allows the back seat to fully recline into an almost flat position which is perfect for infants. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined in multiple positions. It also has UPF 50+ sun protection and windows that peek out.

More spacious than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins to benefit from a larger double buggy. They're perfect for siblings of various ages and allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching. They're usually a more spacious, with one seat behind the other. The seats can be reclined completely for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular option. It is the tiniest design side-by-side on the market, and a footprint comparable to a single stroller. It has an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push and a handbrake, which can be useful on hills that are steep. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, which means it is a great travel system.

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has a simple one-click to fold and can be used in duo or mono mode. The frame's clever design expands widthways to accommodate a second chair and can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent choice for older siblings who want to sit together and enjoy the view. It's slightly larger than other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for kerbs.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that offer stability and swift steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Most of them can be folded down to the size of one buggie which is useful for those who struggle with storage at home or have to lug it in and out of the car on public transport.

It's important to keep in mind that a wide double buggy will be heavier and bulkier than a smaller single buggy So make sure it's what you need before purchasing. You'll need to take it off and on subways, buses, and trains frequently, so it must be simple to use and manage. You may also have to juggle it on and off the car seat when you take your children to school or nursery so you'll need to be aware it is able to be maneuvered in small spaces.

From birth, you are an ideal candidate

You'll need a stroller for the whole family, whether you're expecting twins or if you have a child after having your first. Double buggies are typically heavier and bulkier, as well as more expensive than single strollers. However they are much more maneuverable in narrower doorways and around obstacles such as curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as an accessory purchase) which means you can carry three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other, so they're often a better choice for families with two children that are close enough in age to function well together. But they're not foolproof Side-by-side chairs could kick or punch each other, and children on different heights can squabble over who gets to sit higher. This problem can be solved by a tandem high-low model that elevates the seat at the back. Your child's older one will not be sitting at the lower part of the car, and won't get much of an eye.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for an adjustable double buggy that can be converted into a carrycot that can accommodate both a newborn and www.pushchairsandprams.uk an older child. It has a clever frame that expands widthways when you add the second seat, and folds flat for compact storage. The padded buckles, straps and seats are all of the highest quality we have seen in our testing. You can recline both seats independently and the canopies are spacious and large with UPF 50+ protection as well as peekaboo windows.

The only drawback to the iCandy is that it's a bit expensive, but a quality tandem will last a long time and will retain its resale value, so you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the end. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating configurations as our other top picks. It's nevertheless an excellent choice for families who don't want to spend much money.
