Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double prams with large storage basket buggy could be a fantastic option when you have twins or children who are close in age. They are smaller than side by side buggies, and are perfect for small spaces such as doorways, public transport and rocky terrain.

Some are able to be converted into travel systems that take two carrycots or child car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single to double buggy pushchairs and might feel less stable when bumping up kerbs.

Convertible

If you're looking for a convertible stroller that can be converted from a single to a double or to add another seat to an existing one, there's many options to choose from. The UPPAbaby is a large, beautiful stroller. It can be easily transformed from a single stroller to a double by adding an Rumble seat. It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is located on top of the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice however, it doesn't have storage under the seat when it is used as a double stroller double.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. These tend to be more expensive but they're designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain and can have more resale value.

Independent recline of the seat

If you need a double buggy that is able to carry children of different age groups, then you'll require a model with an recline independent for both seats. This allows your older child to rest while the baby is in a bassinet, and vice versa.

It is also important to think about the size of the pushchair, as this will impact the ease of get through doors and on public transport. If your doors are narrow, you may be considering a side by side pushchair such as 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 generally are a little longer than side-by-side models and so aren't as easy to manoeuvre up and down kerbs, but they can accommodate a wider variety of car seat/car seat combinations, and are a great option for twins or siblings of various age groups. They also tend to be more expensive than single-to-double buggies but are a worthwhile purchase if you plan to keep it for a long time and have a good amount of resale value in the event that you sell it on after your children have grown out of it.

This feature will allow you to put your child in a comfortable position for naps or to observe. This is essential if your child is in the back seat and wants to take a nap while the child in the front prefers to sit and observe the surrounding.

Certain brands have a unique design that allows the back seat of their vehicles to fully recline into a position that's almost flat, perfect for infants. The iCandy Orange, for example has a stadium-style seating option that can be reclined in multiple positions. It also comes with a UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

They are perfect for siblings with different age groups, and you can move about without having to worry about your children touching. They're typically a bit longer with one seat in front of the other. The seats can be reclined completely for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

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

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has a simple one-click to fold and can be utilized in a duo or mono mode. Its clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with two carrycots or car seats making it a great choice for older siblings who want to sit in a group and share the view. It's a bit larger than other models, but it feels light and has a comfortable suspension for kerbs.

There are also plenty of 3-wheeler inline tandems available such as Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies, for example they provide stability and swift steering. They are often folded into the size of one buggy, which is helpful for those who struggle with storage at home or need to lug it in and out of the boot when using public transport.

Be aware that a double-wide buggy is heavier and bulkier than one compact buggy. Make sure you know what you want prior to making a buy. You'll need to take it off and on subways, trains and buses regularly so it needs to be easy to use and manage. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat in and out when you take your child to school or the nursery.

From birth, you are an ideal candidate

You'll need a pushchair for the whole family, whether you're expecting twins, or you have a second child after having your first. Double buggies are generally a bit heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, however they are also easier to manoeuvre in narrower doorways or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This lets you transport three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other, and they're generally a better option for families with two children that are close enough in age to function well. They're not 100% secure. Siblings seated side-by-side by side double stroller may kick or punch each other and children with different heights may fight over who sits taller. This problem can be solved by a tandem high-low model that elevates the seat in the back. Your older child will not be sitting at the lower part of the car, and won't get much of an opportunity to see.

The iCandy Wave is a good alternative for parents looking for an adjustable double buggy that can be converted into a carrycot that can accommodate both the newborn and the older child. It features an innovative frame that expands in width when you add a second child seat. It folds 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 canopies have a generous size, UPF 50+ protection, and peekaboo window. Both seats can recline independently.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it is quite expensive. But a high-quality tandem will last for a long time and will have an attractive resale value so in the end you'll likely recover a portion of the cost. It doesn't come with the same variety of seating configurations as some of our other top picks, but the iCandy is a good option for families that don't want to shell out a lot of money.
