Buying a Double Buggy 3 wheel Stroller brands Wheels

The versatile single-to-double buggy offers 17 configurations for sleeping and seating kids from newborn to toddler and even a third with iCandy's 'piggy back board. It's also one of the slimmest side-by sides and can be pushed through doors like a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact 3 wheel stroller and lightweight stroller that folds easily with one hand. It's also ideal for a variety of terrains and comes with an excellent shopping basket.

Adaptability

When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's lots to think about. You'll want to ensure your children are safe, secure and content while you explore new routes and attractions. It is important to consider the cost and size, weight and durability. A trusted brand (within budget) will boost resales and make the buying process simpler.

There are two types of double buggies with 3 wheels, depending on the number of children you'll be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. The buggies that are side-by-side tend to be slimmer but have a larger footprint than the front-facing models. Despite this there are some smart models on the market which manage to reduce their size, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the smallest buggy on the market. It can even fit through narrow doors.

Tandem buggies on the contrary, are usually larger. They are designed as a single stroller, but can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby child with a newborn because of their clever seat configurations. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 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 sit in various positions. This gives you a choice of 30 seating configurations and is perfect for parents who have young children at very different stages in development.

The phil&teds sports is a good option. This world-first, multi award winning buggy will future proof your pocket by starting as a fantastic single from day one and then adjusting to take two (or 3 wheeled buggy!) As your family expands, you'll be able to make use of the same footprint of one buggy. The Sling seat is the key to this. It is ideal for infants, and provides superior stability, maneuverability and the ability to kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys with 3 wheels are more comfortable to maneuver and control than double pushchairs with four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and narrower, resulting in less weight. This means that they will be pushed more easily, and will also be easier to manoeuvre up and down kerbs.

One of the best lightweight 3 wheel stroller examples is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy on the market and has the same footprint as one buggy. It is ideal for parents who are concerned about fitting into doorways or taking public transportation. Additionally, the fact that it can also take twins or two car seats/car carrycots makes it a great option right from birth.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It's a fantastic, lightweight buggy that is ideal for city life, but also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It can be used by twins or toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. It's only downside is it's a bit harder to handle on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you plan to take your buggy out for long walks or for jogging, it's worth investing in one that can take on rough terrain. Look for a 3-wheeled model with large rear wheels that are able to take the bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be mounted ideally to give you better control over difficult terrain, and also to make it easier to get around corners.

Double buggys that are suitable for two children will allow you the flexibility to alter the seating to ensure that both children be comfortable. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable seating and footrests that can be reclined for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for your shopping, car keys and phones.

Another thing to look out for is a simple fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps underneath the seats to remove the buggy from the frame or a lever that opens a catch that folds the frame within a matter of a few minutes. Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, which makes 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 innovative frame expands widthways to take the second seat (or carrycot) and has a footprint the same as a single buggy, which means it'll fit through doors and public transport. It's a little heavier than other models, but its smooth ride and effortless handling makes up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-byside, offers a massive 30 seating options that can be adapted to meet all needs. It's an excellent choice for twins as the seats can be positioned to face the parents and convert into a tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight three-wheel option that's ideal for everyday use. It's not quite as large or costly as other models, but its fixed front wheel and a small turning radius make it difficult to navigate through kerbs. It's simple to push and can be used to running buggy by including a separate child carrier.

Safety

Phil&teds Sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways. From toddler to infant, using their car seat adapters or a twin 3 wheel stroller kit. They can even take care of three wheel buggies kids if you buy their piggyback boards separately (around PS120). Its dual front swivel wheels that are extremely maneuverable and the an easy foot brake make it a particularly safe. Its parent tray is bigger than the majority of double buggies that are lightweight and the canopy has windows that can be opened to enhance visibility.

This award-winning side-byside double buggy is the tiniest fully-featured all-terrain double available that is available. It has the same footprint as a single-buggy, which means it is easy to push through doors and taken on public transport. Its suspension can take on rough terrain easily and our Lab experts love that it folds into a compact form in a matter of minutes. It also has a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for additional safety. The seats are reversible and you can choose to have your children facing forward, or the parents facing one another - perfect for siblings and twins of different ages.
