Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a great choice if you have twins, or children who are close in age. They are a bit smaller than side-by-side buggies and are perfect for narrow spaces like doorways, public transport and terrain that is rocky.

Some transform into travel systems that include two carrycots or car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs and may not be as stable when in bumping up kerbs.

Convertible

There are many options to add a second seat or changing a single stroller into double. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a big, beautiful stroller that can easily be converted from a single stroller to a double travel buggy by adding the rumble seating (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is placed in front of the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice, but it lacks storage underneath the seat when it's 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 hold two children. They tend to be more expensive, however they're designed for long trips over rough terrain, and may have more resale value.

Independent seat recline

If you are 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 will allow your older child to sit back and relax while the baby sleeps in the bassinet and the reverse.

Take into consideration the width of your stroller and consider how easy it is for you to navigate through doors and on public transportation. If your doorways are very narrow, you might be considering a side by side pushchair, such as 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 generally slightly longer than side-by-side models, and aren't as easily maneuverable through kerbs and up and down, however they can be able to accommodate a bigger range of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations and are a great option for twins or siblings of various age. They are also more expensive than single buggies to double but they're well worth it if you plan to keep it for a few years. They'll also keep a good amount of value if you decide to sell it when your kids have outgrown the buggie.

This feature allows you to put your child in an ideal position for naps or observation. This is especially important when you have a child younger than in the rear seat who may want to lie back and take a snooze while the older child would prefer to sit and observe their surroundings.

Some brands have a unique design that allows the back of their vehicles to recline into a position that's nearly flat, which is ideal for babies. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating that can recline both the included toddler seat and the additional RumbleSeat into multiple positions so that your children have a the option of deciding where they will sit, as well as providing an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

They are great for siblings with different age groups, and they allow you to move around without worrying about your children touching. They're typically a little larger too, with one seat sitting behind the other, and typically offering a fully-flat recline for infants (or an 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 also features an adjustable handle, making it easier for parents of different heights to push and a handbrake, which is useful when tackling steep hills. It is suitable for use from birth, and it can be combined with a range of car seats and carrycots.

Another alternative is the iCandy Wave, which has a simple one-click to fold and can be used in duo or mono mode. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with up to two carrycots or car seats making it a great choice for older siblings who want to sit together and enjoy the view. It's slightly longer than some other models, yet it's easy to steer and has soft suspension that can handle kerbs.

There are a lot of 3-wheeler inline tandems available Check out Phil and Teds inline models, or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies for instance that offer stability and swift steering. These can often be folded into one buggy in case you have a small double stroller space at home, or need to carry it from the car to the bus stop.

It's important to remember that a double-buggy with a wider width will be heavier and bulkier than a compact single double stroller buggy So make sure it's what you require before purchasing. You'll be taking it on and off subways, trains and buses regularly so it needs to be simple to use and manage. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat when taking your child to school or to nursery.

From birth

If you're expecting twins, or have a second child after your first, you're going need to find a stroller that can accommodate the whole family. Double buggies are generally a bit heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers. However, they can also be more maneuverable in narrower entrances or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This allows you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs put one child ahead of the other. They're a great choice if your children are similar in age and are able to get along. They're not foolproof. Siblings seated side-by-side by side double stroller may punch or kick one another and children of different heights could argue over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this issue by elevating the seat towards the rear, preventing your child's older one from being on the bottom and not getting the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for a convertible double buggy with a carrycot that can fit both infants and an older child. It features a clever frame that can be expanded in width when you add the second seat, and folds to flattish storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps are easy to fasten, and the buckles are among the most comfortable we've seen on any of our tests. The canopy is large in size with UPF 50+ protection, and the window is peekaboo. Both seats can be reclined independently.

The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit costly. However, a good tandem will last for many years and have the highest resale value, which means that in the end you'll probably recoup some of the cost. The iCandy doesn't come with the same seating configurations as our other top picks. However, it's a good option for families who don't wish to spend lots of money.
