The versatile single-to-double buggy offers 17 options for sleeping and seating children from infant to toddler, and even an additional one with iCandy's "piggy back' board. It is also one of the tiniest double strollers that can be used as a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds easily by using just one hand. It's also suitable for different types of terrains and comes with a convenient shopping bag.

Adaptability

There are many things to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You'll want to ensure that your children are safe, comfortable and content as you discover new routes and sights. Also, think about the overall price tag size, weight, and durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget, of course) will maximize the value of resales and ease the purchase later on.

Based on the number of children you have to carry There are two primary kinds of double buggy 3 wheels: front-facing and side by side. Side-by-side buggies tends to be smaller but have a bigger area than front-facing models. Despite this there are some smart models available which manage to keep their size down, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy available and it can even fit into narrow doors!

Tandem buggies tend to be larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair and can later be adjusted to take an additional seat or carrycot with adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby or a newborn because of their clever seat 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 is another super-smart tandem buggy that has a unique 'cinema seating' design that allows the rear seat to be adjusted to different positions, so you can change how your children sit in it. This lets you choose from 30 different seating configurations. It is ideal for parents with children at different developmental stages.

Another option is the Phil&teds sport. This multi-award winning buggy is the first of its kind that will help protect your wallet in the future. It starts out as an amazing single, but can be upgraded to take two (or three!) as your family grows all within the same footprint of one buggy! This is made possible by the sling seat, which is perfect for newborns and offers greater maneuverability, stability, and the ability to pop the kerb.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys that have 3 wheels are easier for you to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide and result in less weight being placed on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much more easy to move around kerbs.

A great example of this is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy available and has the same footprint as one single buggy. This makes it ideal for parents who are worried about fitting through doorways or in public transport. It can be used from birth, as it can accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a fantastic lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban living and also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It is suitable for twins or a baby and toddler thanks to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. It's lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only issue is that it's a little more difficult to handle than some other models when walking on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you intend to use your buggy on long walks or for jogs it's a good idea to invest in one that can be able to handle rough terrain. Look out for a 3 wheel tandem stroller-wheel model with large back wheels to take the bumps, plus a suspension system that can absorb shocks. The front wheels should be mounted to give you more control on difficult terrain and allow you to easily push around corners.

A good double buggy allows you to alter the seating positions so that both children are comfortable. The best models include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests for older children. There's plenty of room to store your shopping, keys, and phone.

Another thing to look out for is a smooth fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models that have straps under the seats that can pull the buggy apart or a lever that can open a catch that folds the frame in half, taking just a couple of seconds. Some models can even be folded with the seat removed, making them more compact when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet has won many awards and is a side-byside that is a great choice for twins or siblings. Its innovative frame expands widthways to take the second seat (or carrycot) and has the same footprint as a single buggy, that 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 adapted to meet your needs. It's a great option for twins since the seats can be oriented towards parents and convert into the form of a tandem pushchair, with a carrycot/seat in the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight three-wheel option that's ideal for use in everyday life. It's not as big or costly as other models, however its fixed front wheel and small turning radius make it more difficult to move through kerbs. It's simple to push and can be used as a running buggy by the addition of a separate child carriage for running.

Safety

The phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways, from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even cope with 3 wheel baby buggy if you use their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for about PS120).

The tray that it is on is larger than the majority of double buggies that are lightweight and the canopies have windows that can be opened to enhance visibility.

The adjustable handlebar has a handbrake for extra security.
