Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

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

Some can be converted into travel systems that can take two carrycots or child car seats. However, they can be heavier and longer than single to double stroller pushchairs and might feel less stable when as they bump up the kerbs.

Convertible

If you're looking for convertible single-to-double stroller or want to add an additional seat to an existing one, there's a variety of options available. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller that easily converts from a single stroller to a double by adding the rumble seating (available separately). It's costly and less mobile than other double strollers due to the fact that the second seat is placed behind the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow offers a similar option but lacks storage under the seat when it is used as a double stroller.

Other options include all-terrain twin buggies and fixed-wheel joggers that can accommodate two children. They tend to be more expensive but they're designed for long trips over rough terrain, and may have a higher resale value.

Independent seat recline

If you want a double stroller that will accommodate children of various age groups, you'll require one with independent seat recliner for both seats. This will allow your older child to relax in the back while the baby is in the bassinet and vice versa.

It is also important to consider the width of the pushchair, as this will affect how easy it is to get through doors and on public transportation. If you have narrow doorways then it might be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint that is similar to a single buggy, however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally smaller than side-byside models and so aren't as difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs, however they can be able to accommodate a bigger range of car/car/seat combinations, making them a good option for twins or siblings of different age groups. They are more expensive than single to double buggies but they're well worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They also hold an impressive amount of value when sold once your children have outgrown it.

This feature allows you to put your child in a comfortable position for naps and observation. This is especially important when you have a child younger than in the rear seat who may be inclined to lie down and take a snooze while the more mature child wants to sit and observe their surroundings.

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

Larger than twin buggies

You don't need to have twins in order to benefit from a bigger double buggy - they're ideal for siblings of different age groups. They allow you to go about your day without worrying about your children touching each other. They're typically a bit larger with one seat positioned behind the other and usually providing a flat recline for infants (or an upright position for toddlers).

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It has the slimmest design side-by-side on the market and a footprint that is like the footprint of a single stroller. It also features an adjustable handle, making it easier for parents of different heights to push and an adjustable handbrake, which is useful when tackling difficult hills. It is suitable to use from birth and can be paired with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Another alternative 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 widthwise to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with two carrycots or car seats so it's an excellent option for older siblings who want to sit in a group and share the view. It's a bit longer than other models, but it still feels light and has soft suspension for kerbs.

There are a lot 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 provide stability and swift steering. These can often be folded into a single buggy in case you have a small space at home, or need to carry it from the car to the bus station.

It's worth bearing in mind that a large double buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a compact single buggy, so make sure it's what you require before you purchase. It will be used on buses, trains and subways often, so it must be easy 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 be aware it's easy to maneuver in small double buggy spaces.

The best twin stroller time to start is when you are born.

Whether you're expecting twins or you have a child following your first, you're likely to require a stroller that can accommodate the entire family. Double buggies are generally heavier and bulkier, as well as more expensive than single strollers. However, they are easier to maneuver in tighter doorways and around obstacles such as curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via an additional accessory purchase) so you can transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other. They're a great option for children who are similar in age and are able to get along. However, they're not 100% secure Siblings in a side-by-side seat could kick or punch each other, and kids who are different heights can argue over who sits higher. A tandem high-low model can solve this issue by elevating the seat towards the rear, preventing your child's height from sitting on the bottom and not having much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a good choice for parents looking for a convertible double buggy with a carrycot that can accommodate both the newborn and the older child. It features an innovative frame that can be expanded in size when you add the second child seat. It also folds flat to make it a compact storage. The padded buckles, straps and seats are all of the best quality we have encountered in our testing. The canopies are large in size and UPF 50+ protection, as well as a peekaboo window. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only downside of the iCandy is that it's expensive but a high-quality tandem will last a long time and will retain its resale value. So you'll likely recoup some of the cost over the long term. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating arrangements as our other top picks. However, it's a good option for families who don't want to spend lots of money.
