Adaptability

There are many things to take into consideration when purchasing a double stroller. You'll want to ensure your children are safe, secure and content as you explore new routes and sights. You should also consider the price and size, weight and the durability. Selecting a brand that is well-known (within your budget obviously) will help maximise the resale value as well as speed up the purchase later on.

Based on the number of children you need to carry There are two kinds of double buggy 3 wheel buggies wheels (written by Federatedjournals): front-facing and side by side. The buggies that are side-by-side tend to be smaller, but they have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the smartest models available. This is the smallest buggy available. It even fits through doorways that are narrow.

Tandem buggies are generally larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair but can be rearranged to accommodate a second seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby, or a newborn due to their clever seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple by the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back' board.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This allows you to select between 30 different seating arrangements.

The phil&teds sports is another excellent option. This world-first, multi-award winning buggy will future proof your budget by acting as a fantastic single from day dot and then adapting to take two (or three wheel pushchair!) as your family grows all within the same footprint as one buggy! The sling seat is the most important element to this. It's ideal for newborns and provides greater stability, maneuverability, and kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys with 3 wheels are more comfortable to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. This is due to the fact that the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide and which means less weight is placed on them. They can be pushed easier and are also much easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic model. This is the slimmest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. This makes it ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or even on public transport. It can be used as early as the moment of birth, since it can accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It is a light buggy that is ideal for urban living and also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins, or even toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame ensures it can be lifted and moved easily. It's only downside is it's a bit more difficult to handle on uneven ground as compared to 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 one that can handle rough terrain. Choose a 3-wheel model with large rear wheels to withstand bumps, as well as a suspension system that can absorb shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be anchored to give you more control over difficult terrain, and enable you to maneuver around corners.

A quality double buggy allows you to adjust the seating positions so that both children are able to sit comfortably. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable footrests and reclining seats for older children. There's plenty of room to store your shopping keys, phone, and keys.

Another thing to look out for is a smooth fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats that remove the buggy from the frame or a lever that triggers a catch and folds the frame into half in just a few seconds. Some models can be folded 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 a lot of flexibility for twins or siblings.

It's a little heavier than other models, but its smooth ride and easy handling makes the difference.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, has 30 seating options that can be adapted to meet the needs of any child. It's a great choice for twins, since the seats can be positioned to face the parents and convert into the tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a best lightweight 3 wheel stroller 3-wheel option that's suitable for everyday use.

It's easy to push and can be used to running buggy by including a separate child carrier.
