Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a fantastic option if you have twins, or children who are close in age. They're smaller than side-by-side buggies and ideal for navigating tight spaces such as entrances, on public transportation and rocky terrain.

Some can be converted to travel systems that can take two carrycots or car seats for children. They are often heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

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 a large, gorgeous stroller that converts easily from a single stroller to a double by adding the rumble seating (available separately). However, it's expensive and less maneuverable than other dual strollers double strollers due to the fact that the second seat is located behind the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow offers a similar option, but it lacks storage under the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can be used to carry two children. These are more expensive, but they are designed for long trips on rough terrain, and come with a higher resale price.

Reclining seat recline independently

If you require a double buggy for twins buggy that is able to carry children of different ages then you're going to need a buggy that has an recline independent for both seats. This allows your older child to rest while the baby is in a bassinet and the reverse is true.

Think about the width of your stroller, as this will determine how easy it is for you to maneuver through doors and on public transport. If you have extremely narrow doors, it could be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy however it can accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be longer than side by side models, and therefore are more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However they can also accommodate a wider range of combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are an excellent choice for twins and siblings of various age. These buggies are also more expensive than single to double travel buggy buggies but they're well worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They also hold an impressive amount of value if sold when your children are old enough to use it.

This feature will allow you to place your child in a comfortable position for naps and observation. This is particularly important if you have a young child in the rear seat who will be inclined to lie down and take a snooze while the older child would prefer to sit and observe their surroundings.

Some brands feature an exclusive seat design that allows the back seat to fully recline to an almost flat position which is perfect for infants. For instance, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the toddler seat included as well as the optional RumbleSeat to multiple positions, so your kids can have the option of deciding where to sit as well as providing an excellent UPF 50+ canopy with windows that can be seen from afar.

Wider than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins in order to benefit from a larger double buggy for twins buggy - they're ideal for siblings of different ages and allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They are usually a little bit longer, with one seat behind the other. The seats can be reclined fully for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

A popular option is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which features the slimmest side-by-side design available and features a footprint similar to one buggy. It comes with an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push and a handbrake that can be useful on hills that are steep. It is suitable for use right from birth, and it can be combined with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Another alternative is the iCandy Wave, which has the convenience of a single click to fold and can be used in mono or duo mode. The frame's clever design can be expanded to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with up to 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 a little bigger than the other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for curbs.

There are also plenty of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available Check out Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies for instance - which provide stability and quick steering. They can be folded into a single buggy if you are limited in space at home or you need to transport it from the car to the bus.

It's worth bearing in mind that a wide double buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a single buggy that is smaller So make sure it's what you need before you buy. You'll have to get it on and off subways, buses, and trains often, so it should be easy to operate and manage. You may need to juggle the car seat when taking your child to school or the nursery.

The best time to start is when you are born.

You'll need a pushchair for the whole family, regardless of whether you're expecting twins or you have another child after having your first. Double buggies are generally slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, however they are also easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles such as curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as an additional accessory purchase) to allow you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in the front of the other, so they're generally a better option when you have two children that are close enough in age to get along well. They're not foolproof. Siblings seated side-by-side may punch or kick each other and children with different heights may fight over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this problem by elevating the seat at the rear, preventing your child's older one from being sat on the bottom and not having the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a good choice for parents looking for a convertible double buggy with a carrycot that can fit both infants and an older child. It features a smart frame that can be expanded in width when you add a second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps easy to fasten, and the buckles are among the most impressive we've seen in any of our tests. The canopies have a generous size with UPF 50+ protection, as well as a windows that peek out. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only downside of the iCandy is that it's on the expensive side but a high-quality tandem will last for years and maintain its resale value, which means you'll probably get back some of the cost in the end. The iCandy doesn't come with the same seating options as our other top picks. It's nevertheless an ideal choice for families who don't wish to spend much cash.
