Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a fantastic option for twins or children who are close in age. They're narrower than side-by-side buggies and ideal for navigating narrow spaces like doors, on public transport and on rocky terrain.

Some convert into travel systems that include two carrycots or car seats. They can be heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

There are many options to add a second seat or making a single stroller double pram buggy. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is large, gorgeous stroller that converts easily from a single to double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). However, it's expensive and less maneuverable than other dual strollers because the 2nd seat is located behind the front seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar option with great seating versatility but does not have storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other options include twin pushchair from birth buggies with all-terrain wheels and joggers with fixed wheels that can hold two children. They are more expensive, but they are designed to last longer on rough terrain and have higher resale prices.

Independent seat recline

If you're looking for a double buggy that can transport children of different age groups, then you'll need a buggy that has an independent seat recline for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to rest while the baby is in the bassinet, and reverse.

It is also important to consider the width of the pushchair, as this will affect how easy it is to traverse doors and public transportation. If your doors are narrow, you might 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 are generally slightly longer than side-by-side models and therefore aren't easy to manoeuvre through kerbs and up and down, but they can accommodate a bigger range of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations and are a great option for twins or siblings of different ages. They can also be more expensive than single-to double buggies, but are a good investment if you plan to keep it for many years and will have a decent amount of resale value should you decide to sell it off road double buggy after your children have grown out of it.

Another crucial thing to look for is whether the backs of the seats can recline independently of one another because this allows you to place your child in the most optimal position for napping or observation. This is particularly important if you have a young child in the rear seat who may want to lie back and take a snooze while the older child would prefer to sit up and look around their surroundings.

Certain brands have a unique design that allows the back seat of their vehicles to recline to a position that is almost flat, ideal for newborns. The iCandy Orange, for example, has stadium-style seating that can be reclined to various positions. It also comes with a UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out.

More spacious than twin buggies

They are great for siblings with different ages, and you can get around without having to worry about your children touching. They are usually a little bit longer, with one seat behind the other. The seats can be reclined completely for infants, or put in an upright position for toddlers.

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which is the tiniest side-by-side model on the market and has a footprint similar to a single buggy. It also comes with an adjustable handle, which makes it easy for parents of different heights to push as well as a handbrake that can be useful when you have to climb difficult terrains. It is suitable for use from birth, and can be used with a wide range of car seats and carrycots.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It folds in mono or duo mode with just one click. The clever frame expands to accommodate an additional chair and can be used to accommodate up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it a fantastic choice for older siblings that wish to be seated together. It's slightly longer than some other models, but it's light to steer and comes with soft suspension to tackle kerbs.

There are a lot of 3-wheeler inline tandems available such as Phil and Teds' inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies, for example - which offer stability and swift steering. They are often folded into the size of a single buggy, which is helpful when you have trouble storing it at home or need to carry it in and out of your car on public transport.

It's important to remember that a wide double buggy that converts to single buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a single buggy that is smaller So make sure you're getting what you need before you buy. It will be utilized on buses, trains, and subways frequently therefore it must be simple to manage and use. You might also have to move it on and off the car seat when you take your children to school or nursery so you'll need to be aware it is able to be maneuvered in tight spaces.

From birth

If you're expecting twins or have another child after your first, you're going to need to find an appropriate pushchair for the whole family. Double buggies are generally heavier and bulkier as well as more expensive than single strollers. However they are also more maneuverable in tighter doors, or around obstacles like curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or through a separate accessory purchase) to allow you to transport three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in front of the other. They're a good option if your children are of similar ages and are good friends. They're not completely safe. Siblings seated side-by-side may punch or kick one another and children of different heights could argue over who sits higher. This issue can be addressed by a tandem high-low model that raises the seat in the back. Your child's older one will not be sitting at the bottom of the car and won't have 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 infants and an older child. It features a smart frame that can be expanded in width when you add a second seat and folds down to flattish storage. The cushioned buckles, straps and seats are all of the highest quality we have encountered in any of our tests. Both seats can recline independently, and the canopies are spacious and large with UPF 50+ protection and peekaboo windows.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's on the expensive side, but a quality tandem will last for years and maintain its resale value, which means you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the end. The iCandy does not have the same seating arrangements as our other top choices. However, it's a good option for families who don't wish to spend lots of money.
