Seats

The majority of triple buggies start as single 3 wheeler pushchairs. Some models can be converted to accommodate the second seat using adapters. Certain models let you add an extra board for older kids who are ready to walk, but still require a little help.

If you're looking for a lightweight option that's great for city streets, take a look at the Joie Evalite Duo. It's easy to maneuver and has a large basket with lots of storage. It can accommodate twins from at birth and will accept two car seats, or a carrycot with seat. The seats must face forward and there is no room to store bags of groceries under the seat. You will require a sidepack.

Mountain Buggy Duet will be a good option for you when you love off-roading. It's a side-byside model with the slimmest footprint of any double buggy on the market.

Alternatively, the phil&teds dot is a fantastic single buggy from day 1 that can then easily adapt to take 2 (or 3 wheel umbrella stroller!) Multiple configurations are possible. This is particularly helpful when you have a child in a car seat because the frame can be equipped with a wedgie that allows for optimal lying flat, or car seat adapters for various brands.

Suspension

The quality of the suspension in a triple buggy is essential to how it will be easy for you and your child to push. A smooth ride is vital since babies can feel every bump on the road, particularly if it's in rough terrain such as grass or unpaved paths. Certain models also have locking front wheels to help with maneuvering and getting over obstacles like curbs.

Some models have air-filled tyres that are great for all-terrain riding, however they can be prone punctures. Make sure you have a spare set of tyres inside the trunk. Some models have gel or foam tyres, which are designed to withstand bumps and can be less prone to punctures, but you might feel a bit stiff and uncomfortable for your child's back should you choose to jog.

The side-by-side buggy is the ideal buggy for city walks. It has a brilliant suspension system that lets you effortlessly and comfortably traverse any terrain. Upgrade the duet to our dual kit to carry two children on the same footprint!

MFM reviewer Kath put the Urban Glide 2 through its tests with her newborn and 3 wheel baby strollers year old, and found that it coped really well on difficult terrains: "it navigated effortlessly over bumpy pavements and grass, cobbles and dirt tracks effortlessly and was easy to maneuver around corners and climb up and down kerbs. The 16" rear wheels, combined with the lockable swivel wheels on the front, create a very stable jogging experience. The Urban Glide 2 has a lot of features, such as a large seat unit with padded cover as well as a hood that has 50+ UV protection, and easy-to-use and rechargeable lights.

Folding

A 3 wheel stroller and Car seat wheel double buggy can fold pretty neatly for storage. There are models that fold flat or stand up (as though they were in the form of a pushchair) and those that open to reveal a more umbrella-like folding that has an operated break. The more wheels the buggy is equipped with, in general, the easier it is to maneuver through rough terrain. This is particularly true if the wheels are larger than the average. This will give you more stability and reduce the chance that your child will tip or flip over.

The iCandy Wave is a popular choice. It can be used in conjunction with an infant car seat from birth and then converted to a double buggy when your child is old. It's a comfortable and light-feeling model, which makes it easy to push and is packed with extra features, including a bumper bar and raincover.

Another alternative is the phil&teds sport which is future-proof since it's great as a single buggy from day one and then adjusts to take 2 (or even three!) within its compact footprint. It has a clever three-wheel design with a sling for greater maneuverability and stability.

Stores

One thing that many people appreciate about a good cheap 3 wheel buggy-wheel double buggy is the storage capacity. Certain models, such as the Roma Atlas, have a large basket as well as two zip pockets on the hood, where you can store your phone and keys. It's also designed to be able to handle a little rough terrain, making it a great option for family walks and all-terrain walks.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight stroller that can accommodate twins from birth and is world-facing with a lie-flat position, is something different. The frame's clever design expands widthways to accommodate the extra seat but it still only weighs about 11kg, which makes it easy to move and lift. It can be used with an infant car seat, a carrycot or both. This allows you to have the best of both worlds.
