Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a fantastic option if you have twins, or children who are very close in age. They are smaller than side-by-side buggies and are ideal for small spaces such as doors, public transport, and terrain that is rocky.

Some are able to be converted into travel systems that can take two carrycots or car seats for children. They are often heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

Whether you're looking for a convertible stroller that can be converted from a single to a double or to add a second seat to an existing one, there's many options to choose from. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a large, gorgeous stroller that easily converts from a single model to a double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is positioned behind the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model, but it lacks storage under the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other alternatives include all-terrain twin buggies as well as fixed-wheel joggers that can accommodate two children. These are more expensive, however, they are designed to last longer on rough terrain and come with more expensive resales.

Independent recline of the seat

If you require a double buggy that can carry children of different ages then you're going to want one that has recline that is independent for both seats. This allows your older child to rest while the baby is in the bassinet and vice versa.

You'll also have to consider the width of the pushchair as this will impact how easy it is to traverse doors and public transportation. If your doors are narrow, you may be considering a side by side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint similar to a single stroller but can still fit two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger than side-by-side models, making them more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are the perfect choice for twins and siblings of various age groups. They are more expensive than single to double buggies but they're well worth it if you intend to keep it for a few years. They also hold an impressive amount of value when sold once your children are old enough to use it.

This feature will allow you to put your child in a comfortable position for naps or to observe. This is crucial if your child is in the back seat and wishes to rest while the child in the front prefers to sit and observe the surroundings.

Certain brands have a unique design that allows the back of their vehicles to recline to a position that is almost flat, perfect for newborns. The iCandy Orange, for example has a stadium-style seating option that can be reclined into several positions. It also offers UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

More spacious than best twin buggy 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 little larger too, with one seat sitting behind the other and providing a flat recline for babies (or an upright position for toddlers).

A popular option is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which has the slimmest side by side double stroller-byside design available and features a footprint similar to a single buggy. It comes with an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake, which can be useful on hills that are steep. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a variety 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 one click. Its clever frame can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with two carrycots or car seats which makes it an ideal option for older siblings who wish to sit together and share the view. It's a little longer than other models but still feels light to steer and has soft suspension to tackle the kerbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that offer stability and quick steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They are often folded into one buggy if you are limited in space at home, or need to carry it from the car to the bus station.

Be aware that a double wide buggy will be more heavy and more bulkier than one compact buggy. Be sure to know what you want prior to making a purchase. It is likely to be utilized on buses, trains and subways frequently, so it should be easy to manage and use. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat when you take your child to school or to nursery.

From birth, you're a suitable candidate

If you're expecting twins or you have a child following your first, you're going to require a pushchair that fits the entire family. Double buggies tend to be heavier and bulkier as well as more expensive than single to double pushchair strollers. However, they are more maneuverable in tighter doorways or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front the other. They're a great option for children who are of similar ages and are good friends. But they're not completely safe Side-by-side chairs can kick or punch each other, and children on different heights can squabble over who should sit higher. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat at the rear, which will prevent your child's older one from sitting on the bottom and not getting any view.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for a convertible double buggy that includes a carrycot that is able to accommodate both a newborn and an older child. It features a clever frame that expands in width when you add a second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The seats are cushioned and comfortable, the straps are simple 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 peek out.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit costly. However, a good tandem will last you for years and retain the highest resale value, so at the end of the day, you'll likely recoup some of the cost. It doesn't have the same variety of seating configurations that others of our top picks, but the iCandy is a good choice for families that don't want to shell out a lot of money.
