Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a fantastic option when you have twins or children who are close in age. They are a bit smaller than side by side buggies and are perfect for small spaces such as doors, public transport, and rocky terrain.

Many also convert into travel systems that use two carrycots or car seats. However, they can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and may feel less stable in bumping up the kerbs.

Convertible

There are a variety of options to add a second seat or changing a single stroller into a double. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is large, gorgeous stroller that converts easily from a single stroller to a double by adding the rumble seat (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is located behind the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice however, it doesn't have storage underneath the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other options include twin umbrella stroller buggies with all-terrain wheels and joggers with fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. They are generally more expensive, however 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 transport children of different ages then you're going to need a buggy that has an independent seat recline for both seats. This will allow your child's older to rest in the back while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and the reverse.

It is also important to think about the size of the stroller as this will impact how easy it is to navigate through doors and on public transportation. If your doors are narrow, you might be considering a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint that is similar to a single stroller but can still accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are usually a little longer than side-by-side models and so aren't as difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs, however, they can accommodate a bigger range of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations and are a great option for twins or 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 will retain a decent amount of resale value in the event that you decide to sell it when your children are out of it.

Another thing to look for is if the seat backs can recline independently of one another because this allows you to place your child in the best position to nap or observe. This is important when your child is in the back seat and would like to rest while the child in the front prefers to sit and observe the surroundings.

Certain brands come with a unique design for their seats that allows the back seat to completely recline into an almost flat position, which is ideal for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example has a stadium-style seating option that can be reclined in various positions. It also comes with UPF 50+ sun protection and windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins to benefit from a larger double buggy. They're perfect for siblings of different age groups. They allow you to move around without worrying about your children touching each other. They're typically a larger, with one seat behind the other. The seats can be reclined completely for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which features the slimmest side-by-side design available and features the same footprint as one buggy. It also comes with an adjustable handle, which makes it easier for parents of different heights to push as well as a handbrake, which can be useful when you have to climb difficult hills. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots, meaning it's a great travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in either mono or duo mode in a single click. The frame's clever design can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second seat and it can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent choice for older siblings who wish to sit together and enjoy the view. It's slightly bigger than the other models, but it still feels light and has soft suspension for curbs.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that provide stability and fast steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. These can often be folded into a single buggy in case you have a small space at home, or need to transport it from the car to the bus stop.

Be aware that a lightweight double pushchair wide buggy is heavier and more bulkier than one that is compact twin stroller. Be sure you know what you want before you purchase. It will be utilized on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it should be easy to use and manage. You may need to juggle the car seat in and out when taking your child to school or the nursery.

From your birth, you are a suitable candidate

Whether you're expecting twins or have a second child after your first, you're going need to find a pushchair twin that fits the entire family. Double buggies are generally heavier, bulkier, and more expensive than single strollers. However they are also easier to maneuver in tighter doorways, or around obstacles like curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as a separate accessory purchase) to allow you to transport three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front the other. They're a good option if your children are of similar ages and are able to get along. They're not 100% secure. Siblings sitting side-by-side can kick or punch each other and children of different heights may fight over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat towards the rear, which prevents your older child from being on the bottom and not getting the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a good choice for parents looking for a convertible double buggy that includes a carrycot that can accommodate both infants and an older child. It features an innovative frame that can be expanded in size when you add a second child seat. It also folds flat for storage that is compact. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps are simple to fasten, and the buckles are among the most impressive we've seen in any of our tests. The canopies are large in size, UPF 50+ protection, and a windows that peek out. Both seats can be reclined independently.

The only drawback to the iCandy is that it's a little on the expensive side but a high-quality tandem will last for a long time and retain its resale value. So you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the long run. The iCandy does not have the same seating options as our other top choices. However, it's an excellent choice for families who don't wish to spend a lot of money.
