Buying a Tandem Double Buggy If you have twins or children very close in age, a tandem double buggy is a fantastic option. They are smaller than side by side buggies and are perfect for small spaces such as doors, public transport, and rough terrain. Many convert into travel systems that include two carrycots or car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and may feel less stable as they bump up kerbs. Convertible If you're looking for a convertible stroller that converts from single to double or to add a second seat to an existing one, there's many options to choose from. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a big, beautiful stroller that converts easily from a single to double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is placed behind the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model but lacks storage under the seat when used as a double stroller. Other options include all-terrain twin buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers that can hold two children. These are more expensive, but they are made for long-distance trips over rough terrain and have higher resale prices. Reclining the seat independently If you require a double buggy that can carry children of different age groups, then you'll want one that has recline that is independent for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to sit back and relax while the baby is in the bassinet and the reverse. Consider the size of your pushchair and consider how easy it is for you to get through doors and on public transport. If your doors are narrow, you may think about a side by side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint similar to a single stroller however can still accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors. Tandem buggies are usually slightly longer than side-by-side models and therefore aren't difficult to maneuver through kerbs and up and down, however they can be able to accommodate a bigger range of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations making them a good option for twins or siblings of different age groups. They are priced higher than single to double buggies but they're well worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They'll also keep an impressive amount of value if you decide to sell it when your kids have outgrown the buggie. This feature will allow you to put your child in a comfortable position for naps or observation. This is crucial when your child is in the back seat and would like to nap while the child in the front prefers to sit up to observe the surrounding. Some brands have a unique design that allows the back seat of their vehicles to fully recline to a position that is almost flat, ideal for newborns. For instance the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the toddler seat that comes with it as well as the optional RumbleSeat to multiple positions, so that your children have a a choice of where to sit, and also comes with an excellent UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows. Wider than twin buggies They are ideal for siblings with different age groups, and you can get around without worrying about your children touching. They're typically a little larger with one seat placed behind the other and offering a fully-flat recline for babies (or a more upright position for toddlers). Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It is the tiniest design that is side-by-side, and a footprint that is similar to one stroller. It also comes with an adjustable handle, which makes it easier for parents of various heights to push, and an adjustable handbrake, which is helpful when climbing difficult hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots. This means it is a great travel system. The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in mono or duo mode with just a single click. The frame's clever design expands in width to accommodate a second chair and can be used up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it an ideal choice for older siblings that would like to be seated together. It's a bit longer than other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for kerbs. There are also plenty of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available such as Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies for instance – which offer stability and swift steering. Often these can be folded down to the size of one buggy which is useful if you struggle with storage at home or need to carry it in and out of your car when you travel on public transportation. Be aware that a two-wheeled buggy is more heavy and bulkier than one that is compact. Be sure to know what you want prior to making a buy. It will be used on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it should be easy to operate and use. You might also have to move it on and off the car seat when taking your children to school or nursery so you'll need to know it can be easily manoeuvred in tight spaces. From your birth, you are a suitable candidate There will be a need for a pushchair for the whole family, whether you're expecting twins, or you have a second child after having your first. Double buggies are typically heavier and bulkier as well as more expensive than single strollers. However they are also easier to maneuver in tighter doors, or around obstacles like curbs. Many double buggies are compatible with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This allows you to carry three children simultaneously. Tandem pushchairs put one child in front of the other. They are a good choice if your children are close in age and are good friends. They're not completely safe. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could kick or punch each other, and children of different heights may fight over who sits taller. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat to the rear, preventing your child's older one from sitting on the bottom and not getting much of a view. The iCandy Wave is a great alternative for parents who want an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can fit a newborn into a carrycot as well as an older child in the main seat. It features a clever frame which expands in width when you add a second child seat. It folds flat to make it a compact storage. The seats are cushioned and comfortable, the straps are simple to fasten and the buckles some of the best we've seen on any of our tests. The canopy is large in size, UPF 50+ protection, and a the window is peekaboo. Both seats can recline independently. The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit expensive. But a high-quality tandem will last you for many years and have an attractive resale value so at the end of the day you'll probably recoup some of the cost. double tandem pushchair does not have the same seating options as our other top choices. It's nevertheless an ideal choice for families who don't wish to spend lots of cash.
