Buying a Double Buggy 3 wheel strollers Wheels
This versatile buggy can be used as a single or double. It comes with 17 different options to accommodate children ranging from infants to toddlers and even a third using iCandy’s 'piggyback' board. It's also among the slimmest side-by-sides and fits through doorways just like a single pushchair.
It's a light and compact stroller that has an easy fold that can be completed with one hand. It's also suitable for various terrains and comes with a handy shopping bag.
Adaptability
There are a variety of factors to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You'll need to make sure that your children are comfortable and safe as you explore new routes and sights. You should also consider the total cost as well as the size, weight, and durability. Selecting a brand that is well-known (within your budget obviously) will increase resale value and a smooth purchase process down the line.
There are two types of double buggies that have lightest 3 wheel stroller wheels, depending on how many children you'll be carrying: side-by-side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies are smaller than front-facing ones, however, they have a larger footprint. Despite this there are some smart models available that are able to reduce their size like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy on the market and it even fits into narrow doors!
Tandem buggies tend to be larger. They typically start as a single pushchair but can later be adjusted to accommodate an additional seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies can be used to accommodate twins, a baby and toddler or a child and newborn thanks to their innovative seating arrangements. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be converted to a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back" board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat' design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating arrangements and is perfect for parents with young children at different stages of development.
The phil&teds sports is a good option. This multi-award winning buggy is a world first that will protect your wallet in the future. It is initially a brilliant single and can be adapted to accommodate two (or three!) as your family grows - all within the same footprint as a single buggy! This is made possible by the innovative sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers greater maneuverability, stability, and the ability to pop kerbs.
Manoeuvrability
In general, double buggy 3 wheels are easier to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs with four wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, making them less wide, result in less weight being placed on them. They can be pushed easier and are also much more easy to maneuver up and down kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic example. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy available and has a footprint the same as a single buggy. This makes it ideal for parents who are worried about fitting through doors or even on public transport. It can be used from birth, as it can fit twins or two carrycots/car seats.
Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a fantastic light buggy that is ideal for urban living and also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins as well as a baby and toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its lightweight frame means it can be lifted and carried easily. The only downside is that it's a bit more difficult to handle than some other models when walking on uneven ground.
Comfort
If you plan to utilize your buggy for long walks or jogs it's worth spending more for one that is able to take on rough terrain. Consider a three-3 wheel stroller set model with large back wheels to withstand bumps, plus a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be fixed in order to give you more control over difficult terrain and allow you to easily navigate around corners.
Double buggys that are good for two kids will give you to adjust the seats to ensure that both children be at ease. The best options have reclining seats and adjustable footrests that can be adjusted for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for shopping, car keys and phone.
Another thing to look out for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps underneath the seats that take the buggy apart, or a lever that triggers a catch that folds the frame in half in a matter of seconds. Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not in use.
The Mountain Buggy Duet has won numerous awards and is a side-by-side that is a great choice for twins or siblings. Its innovative frame can be expanded to accommodate the carrycot or second seat, yet still has the same footprint as a single stroller. This means it can be used through doors and on public transport. It's a little heavier than other models but its smooth ride and easy handling make more 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 a great option for twins as the seats can face the parents and can be converted into a tandem pushchair.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheel running stroller-wheel option is ideal for daily use. It's not as large or expensive as other models, but its fixed front wheel and small turning radius make it more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's simple to push and can be used as a running buggy by including a separate child carrier.
Safety
Phil&teds Sports can accommodate 2 children in multiple ways. From toddler to infant, with their car seat adapters or a twin kit. They can even take care of 3 wheel stroller travel system kids if you purchase their piggyback board on their own (around PS120). It is especially safe because of its dual front swivels, superior maneuverability, and a handy footbrake. Its parent tray is bigger than most lightweight double buggies and the canopy has windows that peek out to increase visibility.
This multi-award winning side-byside is the slimmest full-featured true all-terrain double buggy on the market. Its footprint is identical to a single buggy, so it fits easily through doorways and on public transport. Its suspension can handle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds down to a compact size within a matter of seconds. The adjustable handlebar comes with a handbrake for added security. The seats can be reversed to allow the children facing one side or parents facing each other which is ideal for twins and siblings.
