Buying a tandem double buggy [just click for source]

A tandem double buggy could be a fantastic option if you have twins, or children who are close in age. They're smaller than side-by-side buggies, and ideal for maneuvering tight spaces such as doors, on public transport and rocky terrain.

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

Convertible

There are a variety of options for adding a second seating or making a single stroller double pushchair sale. The UPPAbaby is a spacious, gorgeous stroller. It can be easily converted from a single to a dual by adding an Rumble seat. However, it's expensive and less mobile than other double strollers due to the fact that the second seat is located to the left of the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice, but it lacks storage underneath the seat when it is used as a double stroller.

Other options include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels, and joggers with fixed wheels that can accommodate two children. They are more expensive, however, they are designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain and come with a higher resale price.

Independent seat recline

If you're looking for a smallest double buggy buggy to carry children of different age groups, then you'll want one that has recline independent for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to sit back and relax while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and reverse.

You'll also have to consider the width of the stroller as this will affect the ease of navigate through doors and on public transport. If your doorways are very narrow, you may think about a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint that is similar to a single stroller but can still fit two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies generally are slightly longer than side-by-side models, and aren't as easily maneuverable through kerbs and up and down, but they can accommodate a wider range of car seat/car seat combinations, making them a good option for twins or siblings of different age. They are also more expensive than single-to-lightweight double pushchair buggies, but are worth the investment if you plan to keep it for many years and will have a decent amount of resale value if you decide to sell it off when your children are out of it.

This feature allows you to place your child in the most comfortable position for naps or to observe. This is especially important if you have a younger child in the rear seat who will be inclined to lie down and relax while the more mature child wants to sit up and observe their surroundings.

A few brands have an exclusive seat design that allows the back seat to fully recline to an almost flat position, which is ideal for infants. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined into multiple positions. It also offers UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

They are ideal for siblings with different ages, and you can get around without worrying about your children touching. They're usually a larger with one seat in front of the other. The seats can be reclined fully for infants, or put in an upright position for toddlers.

A popular option is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which has the slimmest side-byside design available and has an identical footprint to a single buggy. It also has an adjustable handle, making 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 from birth and is compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots, meaning it is a great travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in duo or mono mode in a single click. Its clever frame expands in width to accommodate the second chair and can be used to accommodate up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it an ideal choice for older siblings that wish to sit together. It's a bit larger than other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for curbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems with inline tires that offer stability and swift steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Often these can be folded down to size one buggy, which is helpful for those who struggle with storage at home or frequently need to lug it in and out of your car when using public transportation.

It's worth bearing in mind that a large double buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a smaller single buggy So make sure it's what you need before purchasing. It will be used on trains, buses and subways often, therefore it must be simple to use and manage. You might also have to juggle it onto and off the car seat when taking your children to nursery or school so you'll need to ensure it's easy to maneuver in tight spaces.

From your birth, you are a suitable candidate

You'll need a pushchair for your entire family whether you're expecting twins, or if you have a child after having your first. Double buggies tend to be slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, but they are also easier to maneuver through narrower doors or around obstacles like curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as an accessory purchase) so you can transport three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in the front of the other, and they're generally a better option if you have two kids who are close enough in age to function well. They're not 100% secure. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could punch or kick one another, 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 at the rear, which prevents your child's older one from being on the bottom and not having much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for a convertible double buggy that includes a carrycot that can fit both the newborn and the older child. It has a clever frame that can be expanded in width when you add the second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps easy to secure and the buckles some of the most comfortable we've seen on any of our tests. The seats can be reclined independently, and the canopies are large and generous with UPF 50+ protection and windows that can be seen from a distance.

The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit costly. But a high-quality tandem will last you for years and retain a high resale price, so at the end of the day, you'll likely recoup a portion of the cost. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating options as our other top picks. However, it's an excellent choice for families that don't want spend much money.
