Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a great choice for twins or children who are very close in age. They're smaller than side-by-side buggies and are ideal for maneuvering tight spaces such as doorways, on public transport and on rocky terrain.

Some transform 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 as they bump up the kerbs.

Convertible

Whether you're looking for a convertible single-to-double stroller or want to add an additional seat to an existing one, there's many options to choose from. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is big, beautiful stroller that easily converts from a single model to a double by adding the rumble seat (available separately). It's costly and less maneuverable than other dual strollers due to the fact that the second seat goes to the left of the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model but lacks storage under the seat when it is used as a double infant strollers stroller.

Other alternatives include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. These tend to be more expensive, however they're designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain, and may have greater resales value.

Reclining the seat independently

If you want a double tandem pushchair stroller that will accommodate children of different age groups, you'll require one with independent seat recliner for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to be able to relax while your baby is in a bassinet and reverse.

Consider the size of your pushchair to determine the ease of you to get through doors and on public transportation. If you have narrow doorways then it might be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair twin like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint that is similar to a single buggy, however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally larger than side-by-side models, making them more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of seats/carrycots/car seats and can make an excellent choice for twins and siblings of various age groups. They also tend to be more expensive than single-to-double jogging stroller buggies, but are a worthwhile investment if you intend to keep it for many years and will retain a decent amount of resale value in the event that you decide to sell it off when your children have grown out of it.

Another thing to look for is if the seat backs can recline independently from one another as this will let you place your child in the ideal position for napping or observation. This is essential for children who are in the back seat and wishes to take a nap while the child in the front prefers to sit up to observe the surrounding.

A few brands have a unique seat design which allows the back seat to fully recline to an almost flat position which is perfect for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined into various positions. It also comes with UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out.

Larger than twin buggies

It's not necessary to have twins in order to benefit from a larger double buggy - they're ideal for siblings of various age groups and let you move around without worrying about your children touching each other. They're typically a bit longer too with one seat placed behind the other, and typically with a fully-flat recline option for infants (or a more upright position for toddlers).

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which features the slimmest side-by-side design available and has the same footprint as a single buggy. It has an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake that is helpful on steep hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, which means it is a great travel system.

Another alternative is the iCandy Wave, which has an easy one-click fold and can be used in mono or duo mode. Its clever frame expands to accommodate the second chair and can be used to accommodate up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it a fantastic option for older siblings who would like to be seated together. It's slightly larger than other models, but it still isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for kerbs.

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. They can be folded into one buggy if you have limited space at home or need to transport it from the car to the bus stop.

Be aware that a two-wheeled buggy is more heavy and more bulkier than one compact buggy. Be sure you know what you want prior to making a buy. It is likely to be used on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it should be easy to operate and use. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat when taking your child to school or to nursery.

Suitable from birth

You'll need a stroller for your entire family regardless of whether you're expecting twins or if you have a child after having your first. double Pram stroller buggies are typically slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, however they can also be more maneuverable in narrower entrances or around obstacles such as curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via an accessory purchase) to allow you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in front of the other, and they're often a better choice if you have two kids who are close enough in age to get along well together. They're not completely safe. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could punch or kick each other and children with different heights could argue over who is sitting higher. This issue can be addressed by a tandem high-low design that elevates the seat at the rear. Your child's older one will not be sitting at the bottom of the car and won't have much of a look out.

The iCandy Wave is a good choice for parents looking for a convertible double buggy travel system buggy with a carrycot that can fit both a newborn and an older child. It features a smart frame that expands widthways when you add the second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps are simple to fasten, and the buckles some of the most impressive we've seen in any of our tests. The canopy is large in size and UPF 50+ protection, and a the window is peekaboo. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's a bit on the expensive side however, a good tandem will last for a long time and will retain its resale value, which means you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the end. It doesn't come with the same variety of seating configurations that others of our top choices however, the iCandy is a great choice for families who don't wish to shell out a lot of money.
