Buying a Tandem Double Buggy A tandem double buggy can be a great choice when you have twins or children who are very close in age. They're narrower than side-by-side buggies and are ideal for maneuvering tight spaces such as doors, on public transport and rocky terrain. Some can be converted to travel systems that use two carrycots or child car seats. However, they can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and might feel less stable when bumping up the kerbs. Convertible There are many options for adding a second seating or converting a single stroller to a double. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is large, gorgeous stroller that can easily be converted from a single to double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). However, it's pricey and less mobile than other double strollers due to the fact that the second seat is placed in front of the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model but lacks storage under the seat when used as a double stroller. Other alternatives include all-terrain twin buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers that can hold two children. They are more expensive, however, they are designed to last longer on rough terrain and have more expensive resales. Pushchairs And Prams of the seat If you're looking for a double stroller that can accommodate children of various age groups, you'll require one with a recliner that is independent for both seats. This allows your older child to be able to relax while your baby is in a bassinet and vice versa. Consider the width of your pushchair, as this will determine the ease of you to maneuver through doors and on public transport. If you have extremely narrow doorways then it might be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy but can still take 2 seats and car seat adaptors. Tandem buggies are usually a little longer than side-by-side models and so aren't as easily maneuverable up and down kerbs, however, they can accommodate a wider range of car seat/car seat combinations, and are a great option for twins or siblings of various age. They are priced higher than single buggies to double however they're worth the cost if you plan on keeping it for many years. They will also retain a good amount of value if you decide to sell it when your kids have outgrown the buggie. Another important feature to look for is whether the backs of the seats can recline independently of one another because this allows you to put your child in the best position for naps or watching. This is especially important when you have a younger child in the rear seat, who will prefer to lay back and sleep while the older child wants to sit up and look around their surroundings. Certain brands come with a unique seat design which allows the back seat to completely recline into a nearly flat position which is perfect for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined to several positions. It also comes with a UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out. Wider than twin buggies It's not necessary to have twins in order to benefit from a wider double buggy – they're ideal for siblings of different age groups and let you move around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're typically a little larger too with one seat positioned behind the other, and typically offering a fully-flat recline for babies (or an upright position for toddlers). Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It is the tiniest design side-by-side on the market, and a footprint like the footprint of a single stroller. It features an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push and a handbrake, which can be useful on hills that are steep. It can be used 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 folds in duo or mono mode in a single click. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second chair and can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots which makes it an ideal option for older siblings that wish to sit together and share the view. It's slightly bigger than the other models, but it still feels light and has a comfortable suspension for kerbs. There are many 3-wheeler tandems with inline tires that provide stability and fast steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They can be folded into one buggy if you have limited space at home or you need to transport it from your car to the bus stop. Be aware that a double wide buggy will be heavier and heavier than one compact buggy. Be sure you know what you want before you buy. You'll be taking it off and on subways, trains and buses frequently, so it must be easy to operate and manage. You might also have to move it on and off the car seat while taking your children to nursery or school so you'll need to be aware it's easy to maneuver in tight spaces. The best time to start is when you are born. Whether you're expecting twins or have a second child after your first, you're going to need to find a stroller that can accommodate the entire family. Double buggies tend to be heavier and bulkier, as well as more expensive than single strollers. However, they are easier to maneuver in tighter doorways or around obstacles such as 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 seat one child in front of the other, so they're often a better choice when you have two children that are close enough in age to be able to live well together. They're not 100% secure. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could punch or kick each other and children with different heights may fight over who sits higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this issue by elevating the seat at the rear, which will prevent your child's height from being on the bottom and not getting the best view. The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for an adjustable double buggy that can be converted into a carrycot that can fit both a newborn and an older child. It has an intelligent frame that increases in size when you add a second child seat. It can also fold 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 and UPF 50+ protection, and 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 but a high-quality tandem will last for years and retain its resale value, so you'll likely recoup some of the cost in the end. It doesn't come with the same selection of seating options as others of our top choices however the iCandy is a good choice for families that don't want to spend a fortune.
