Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

If you have twins or children similar in age, a tandem lightweight double pushchair buggie is a fantastic option. They are narrower than side by side buggies and are ideal for tight spaces like doors, public transport and rocky terrain.

Some convert into travel systems to include two carrycots or car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and might feel less stable when bumping up kerbs.

Convertible

There are a variety of options to add a second seat or making a single stroller Double stroller lightweight. The UPPAbaby V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller. It can easily be converted from a single to a dual by adding the seating area with a rumble. It is more expensive and less maneuverable because the second seat is located in front of the first seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar option with a wide range of seating options, but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other alternatives include all-terrain twin umbrella stroller buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers which can be used to accommodate two children. They are generally more expensive, but they're made to last longer on rough terrain and could have a higher resale value.

Reclining seat recline independently

If you want a double stroller that will accommodate children of different ages, you will need one with independent seat recliner for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to sit back and relax while the baby is in the bassinet, and the reverse.

It is also important to think about the size of the stroller as this will impact how easy it is to navigate through doors and on public transport. If you have very narrow doors, it may be worth considering a side-by-side pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint similar to a single buggy however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally larger than side-by-side models, and therefore are more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However they can be able to accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and can make a great option for twins and siblings of various ages. They also tend to be more expensive than single-to-double buggies but are a good investment if you plan to keep it for years and have a good amount of resale value in the event that you sell it on after your children have grown out of it.

Another crucial thing to look for is if the seat backs are able to recline independently of one another since this will allow you to put your child in the ideal position for napping or observation. This is crucial for children who are in the back seat and wants to nap while the more mature child prefers to sit and observe the surrounding.

Some brands feature a unique design for their seats that allows the back seat to fully recline into an almost flat position that is perfect for infants. For example the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the included toddler seat as well as the optional RumbleSeat into various positions to give your kids a a choice of where to sit, as well as offering an excellent UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows.

Wider than twin buggies

They are ideal for siblings of different age groups, and they allow you to move about without worrying about your children touching. They're typically a bit longer too with one seat placed behind the other, and typically with a fully-flat recline option for babies (or an upright position for toddlers).

A popular option is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which features the slimmest side-by-side design available and has a footprint similar to one buggy. It has an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake, which is helpful on steep hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, which means it makes an excellent 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 clever frame expands to accommodate an additional chair and can be used to accommodate up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it an ideal option for older siblings who want to be seated together. It's a bit longer than other models, but it's light to steer and comes with soft suspension to tackle the kerbs.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems with inline tires that offer stability and swift steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Most of them can be folded down to size one buggie which is useful for those who struggle with storage at home or frequently need to lug it in and out of the boot when using public transportation.

It's important to keep in mind that a double-buggy with a wider width will feel heavier and bulkier than a single buggy that is smaller So make sure you're getting what you need before you purchase. It is likely to be used on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it must be easy to manage and use. You might also have to juggle it on and off the car seat while taking your children to school or nursery so you'll need to know it can be easily manoeuvred in tight spaces.

From birth, you are a good candidate

You'll need a stroller for your entire family, whether you're expecting twins, or you have another child after having your first. Double buggies tend to be larger, heavier and cost more than single strollers, however they can also be easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles like curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via a separate accessory purchase) which means you can carry three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs seat one child in the front of the other, and they're often a better choice for families with two children who are close enough in age to be able to live well. But they're not foolproof Siblings in a side-by-side seat may punch or kick each other, and kids with different heights may argue over who sits higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this issue by elevating the seat to the rear, preventing your child's height from being sat on the bottom and not having much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for a convertible double buggy that includes a carrycot that is able to accommodate both infants and an older child. It features an intelligent frame that expands in width when you add the second child seat. It can also fold flat to make it a compact storage. The cushioned buckles, straps and seats are all of the best double stroller quality we have encountered in our testing. The canopies are large in size and UPF 50+ protection, and windows that peek out. Both seats can be reclined independently.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's a bit on the expensive side but a high-quality tandem will last a long time and will retain its resale value, so you'll probably get back some of the cost in the long run. It also doesn't offer the same range of seating configurations as others of our top choices however, the iCandy is a great choice for families that don't want to spend a fortune.
