Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a great choice when you have twins or children who are very close in age. They are a bit smaller than side by side buggies, and are ideal for small spaces such as doors, public transport, and rough terrain.

Some are able to be converted into travel systems that take two carrycots or child car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs and might feel less stable when bumping up the kerbs.

Convertible

There are a variety of options for adding a second seating or changing a single stroller into a double. The UPPAbaby is a large, beautiful stroller. It can be easily transformed from a single stroller to a dual by adding the seating area with a rumble. It is more expensive and less maneuverable because the second seat is located behind the first seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a comparable model with a wide range of seating options, but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other options include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. They are generally more expensive, but they're made to last longer on rough terrain, and may have more resale value.

Independent seat recline

If you're looking for a double buggy that can carry children of different ages then you're going to require a model with an independent seat recline for both seats. This will allow your older child to relax in the back while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and vice versa.

You'll also need to consider the width of the pushchair as this will impact how easy it is to traverse doors and public transport. If you have narrow doorways then it might be worth considering a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint that is similar to a single buggy, however it can accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be longer than side by side models, and therefore are more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However they can be able to accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are an excellent choice for twins and siblings of different age groups. They are priced higher than single-to-double Pram stroller buggies but they're well worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They'll also keep some value when sold once your kids have outgrown it.

Another important feature to look for is whether the seat backs are able to recline independently from one another as this will let you place your child in the ideal position for naps or watching. This is especially important when you have a younger child in the rear seat who will be inclined to lie down and relax while the older child wants to sit up and observe their surroundings.

Some brands feature a unique seat design which allows the back seat to fully recline into an almost flat position, which is ideal for babies. For example the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline both the toddler seat that comes with it as well as the optional RumbleSeat to multiple positions, so that your children have a the option of where they want to sit as well as providing an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins in order to benefit from a larger double buggy - they're ideal for siblings of different age groups. They allow you to move around without worrying about your children touching each other. They're usually a larger with one seat positioned behind the other. The seats can be reclined fully for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It has the slimmest design of the two-in-ones on the market and a footprint that is like one stroller. It also features an adjustable handle, which makes it easier for parents of various heights to push and a handbrake that is helpful when climbing steep hills. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots, which means it makes an excellent travel system.

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has the convenience of a single click to fold and is able to be used in duo or mono mode. Its innovative frame can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second seat and can be used with two carrycots or car seats making it a great option for older siblings that want to sit together and share the view. It's a bit longer than other models, but it's light to steer and comes with soft suspension that is able to handle the kerbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems with inline wheels that offer stability and swift steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models, or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Often these can be folded down to the size of one buggy, which is helpful when you have trouble storing it at home or have to transport it into and out of your car when you travel on public transportation.

It's important to remember that a large double buggy will feel bulkier and heavier than a single buggy that is smaller, so make sure it's what you need before you buy. It will be utilized on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it must be easy to operate and use. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat on and off when you take your child to school or nursery.

From birth, you're an ideal candidate

You'll need a pushchair for the whole family, whether you're expecting twins or you have another child after you've had your first. best double stroller buggies are generally slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, but they are also more maneuverable in narrower entrances or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggy with carrycot buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs seat one child in the front of the other, and they're generally a better option if you have two kids that are close enough in age to get along well. They're not foolproof. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could punch or kick each other, and children of different heights could argue over who sits higher. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat to the rear, which will prevent your child's older one from sitting on the bottom and not having much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a great option for parents looking for an easy-to-use double buggy that converts to accommodate a newborn in a carrycot and an older child in the main seat. It features an intelligent frame that increases in size when you add a second child seat. It folds flat for storage that is compact twin stroller. The cushioned seats, straps and buckles are all of the highest quality we have encountered in our tests. The canopies have a generous size and UPF 50+ protection, and a the window is peekaboo. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only drawback to the iCandy is that it's a little expensive however, a good tandem will last for years and retain its resale value, so you'll likely recoup some of the cost in the end. The iCandy doesn't come with the same seating arrangements as our other top choices. It's nevertheless a good option for families who don't want to spend much money.
