Adaptability
When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's a lot to consider. You'll need to make sure your children are comfortable and safe while you explore new sights and routes. You'll also want to think about the overall cost size, weight, and durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget obviously) will help maximise the value of resales and ease the buying process later on.
There are two kinds of double buggies with three wheels, based on how many children you will be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. The side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller but have a bigger area than front-facing models. Despite this there are some smart models on the market that manage to keep their size down like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the slimmest side-byside buggy in the world and it even fits into narrow doors!
Tandem buggies tend to be larger. They are designed as a single stroller and can be adjusted by adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a baby and toddler or a child and a newborn thanks to their clever seating configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back" board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with unique 'cinema-seat' design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating options and is perfect for parents with young children who are at different stages of development.
The phil&teds sports is also a great option. This world-first, multi award winner buggy will protect your budget by acting as a fantastic single from day one and then adapting to take 2 (or
3 wheel baby stroller!) as your family grows - all within the same footprint of one buggy! This is made possible by the genius sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers the best maneuverability, stability and kerb pop.
Manoeuvrability
Generally speaking Double buggy
3 wheel baby strollers wheel running buggy,
check over here, wheels are more easy to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less wide, resulting in less weight. They are easier to push and are also much more easy to move around kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic example. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy available and has the same footprint as one buggy. It is perfect for parents who are worried about fitting into doorways or using public transport. In addition, the fact it can also take twins or two carrycots/car seats allows it to be used right from birth.
Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It's a fantastic, lightweight buggy that's ideal for urban life, but also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins, a baby and a toddler due to its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its light frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a little harder to maneuver on uneven terrain than other models.
Comfort
If you plan to use your buggy for long walks or for jogs it's worth investing in a model that can be able to handle rough terrain. Consider a three-wheel model with large back wheels to take the bumps, plus a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be fixed to give you more control on difficult terrain, and make it easier to push around corners.
Double buggys that are suitable for two children will give you the flexibility to alter the seating so that both children can be comfortable. The best options include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests for children older than. There's plenty of room to store your items, keys, and phone.
A simple fold mechanism is another thing to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats that take the buggy apart, or a lever that opens a catch that folds the frame into half in a matter of seconds. Some models fold with the seats removed, making them smaller when not being used.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side which offers great flexibility for twins or siblings. Its clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat or carrycot, while still having the same footprint as a single stroller. This means it can fit through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models however its smooth ride compensates for the extra weight.
iCandy’s Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, comes with 30 seating configurations that can be altered to meet the needs of any child. It's a great choice for twins, since the seats can face the parents and convert into an iCandy tandem pushchair.
The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight
3 wheel pushchair cheap-wheel option that's suitable for use in everyday life. It's not as large or as expensive as other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel mean it's difficult to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. It's easy to push though and can also be used as a running buggy with the addition of a separate child car for jogging.
Safety
The phil&teds sport is able to take two children in many ways, from infant to toddler with their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even cope with
3 wheeler strollers if you use their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for about PS120). It is especially safe due to its dual front swivels, superior maneuverability, and a convenient footbrake. The parent tray is larger than many double buggies with a lighter weight and the canopies have peekaboo windows to improve visibility.

It also comes with a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for added safety. The seats can be reversed and you can choose to have the children facing forward or have the parents facing each other - great for twins and siblings of different ages.
