Buying a Tandem double running buggy Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a fantastic option when you have twins or children who are close in age. They are narrower than side by side buggies and are great for tight spaces like doors, public transport and rocky terrain.

Many convert into travel systems to include two carrycots or car seats. They are typically heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

If you're looking for convertible stroller that can be converted from a single to a double or to add an additional seat to an existing one, there are many options to choose from. The UPPAbaby V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller. It can be easily changed from a single to a dual by adding the seating area with a rumble. It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is placed behind the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice, but it lacks storage underneath the seat when it's used as a double stroller.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels and joggers with fixed wheels that can be used to carry two kids. These tend to be more expensive but they're designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain and can have greater resales value.

Independent recline of the seat

If you're looking for a double buggy that can carry children of different ages, you'll require a model with an recline that is independent for both seats. This will allow your older child to relax while the baby is sleeping in a bassinet, and reverse.

Take into consideration the width of your stroller and consider the ease of you to maneuver through doors and public transportation. If you have very narrow doors, it could be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint similar to a single buggy however it can accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are typically larger than side-by-side models, making them more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However they can also accommodate a wider range of combinations of car seats/car seats/seats and can make an excellent choice for twins and siblings of various age groups. They are also more expensive than single-to-double buggies, but are worth the investment if you intend to keep it for years and have a good amount of resale value should you decide to sell it after your children have grown out of it.

Another crucial thing to look for is if the seat backs can recline independently of each other since this will allow you to place your child in the most optimal position for naps or watching. This is essential for children who are in the back seat and wishes to take a nap while the more mature child prefers to sit and observe the surroundings.

Some brands feature a unique seat design which allows the back seat to completely recline into an almost flat position, which is ideal for infants. The iCandy Orange, for example, has stadium-style seating that can be reclined into several positions. It also has UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

Larger than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins in order to benefit from a larger double pushchair sale buggy. They're great for siblings of various age groups and let you move around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're typically a little longer too, with one seat sitting behind the other and providing a flat recline for newborns (or a more upright position for toddlers).

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It is the slimmest design side-by-side on the market, and a footprint comparable to the footprint of a single stroller. It comes with an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push and a handbrake which is useful on steep hills. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots, meaning it makes an excellent travel system.

Another alternative is the iCandy Wave, which has an easy one-click fold and is able to be used in mono or duo mode. Its innovative frame can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent option for older siblings who want to sit in a group and enjoy the view. It's a little longer than other models but still feels light to steer and comes with soft suspension to tackle kerbs.

There are many 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. Often these can be folded into the size of one buggy, which is helpful when you have trouble storing it at home or need to lug it in and out of your car on public transportation.

It's important to keep in mind that a wide double buggy will feel bulkier and heavier than a compact single buggy, so make sure it's what you need before you buy. You'll need to take it on and off subways, trains and buses regularly so it needs to be simple to use and manage. You might also have to juggle it onto and off the car seat while taking your children to school or nursery so you'll need to be aware it's easy to maneuver within small spaces.

From your birth, you are a suitable candidate

If you're expecting twins, or have a second child after your first, you're going to need to find an appropriate pushchair double for the entire family. double buggy with car seat buggies are typically a bit heavier, bulkier and cost more than single strollers, however they are also easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles like curbs. Many double buggies work with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This allows you to carry three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in front of the other, and they're usually a better option for families with two children who are close enough in age to function well together. But they're not completely safe: Siblings in side-by-side seats could kick or punch each other, and kids with different heights may argue over who gets to sit and stand double stroller higher. A tandem high-low model can solve this issue by elevating the seat to the rear, which will prevent your child's older one from being sat on the bottom and not having the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a good alternative for parents looking for a convertible double buggy with a carrycot that can accommodate both the newborn and the older child. It features a smart frame that can be expanded in width when you add a second seat, and folds flat to make it a compact storage. The cushioned buckles, straps and seats are all of the best twin buggy quality we have encountered in our tests. The canopies are large in size with UPF 50+ protection, and a peekaboo window. Both seats can recline independently.

The only downside of the iCandy is that it's a little expensive but a high-quality tandem will last for years and will retain its resale value, so you'll probably recoup some of the cost over the long term. It doesn't come with the same range of seating options as the other top choices however, the iCandy is a great choice for families that don't want to shell out a lot of money.
