Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

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

Many convert into travel systems that take 2 carrycots or car seats. However, they can be heavier and longer than single Pushchairs And Prams and might feel less stable when as they bump up kerbs.

Convertible

If you're looking for a convertible single-to-double stroller or want to add another seat to an existing one, there are a variety of options available. The UPPAbaby V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller. It can be easily changed from a single to a dual by adding an rumble seat. It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is located on top of the first seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a comparable model with a wide range of seating options, but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two children. They are more expensive but they are made for long trips on rough terrain and have a higher resale price.

Independent seat recline

If you are looking for a double pram and pushchair stroller that can accommodate children of various age groups, you'll require one with an independent recliner for both seats. This will allow your child's older to sit back and relax while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and the reverse.

It is also important to consider the width of the pushchair as it will impact the ease of traverse doors and public transportation. If you have very narrow doors, it could be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint similar to a single buggy however, it is able to take 2 seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger than side-by-side models, which makes them more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are a great option for twins and siblings of various 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 when your children are out of it.

Another thing to look out for is if the backs of the seats can recline independently of each other because this allows you to place your child in the most optimal position to nap or observe. This is important for children who are in the back seat and would like to take a nap while the child in the front prefers to sit up and observe the surrounding.

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

They allow you to get around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're usually a larger with one seat in front of the other.

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has a simple one-click to fold and is able to be utilized in a duo or mono mode. The frame's clever design expands widthways to accommodate a second chair and it can be used with up to two carrycots or car seats which makes it an ideal choice for older siblings who want to sit together and share the view.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems with inline wheels that provide stability and fast steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They are often folded into the size of one buggy, which is helpful when you have trouble storing it at home or frequently need to transport it into and out of your car on public transportation.

Be aware that a two-wheeled buggy is more heavy and bulkier than a single compact buggy. Be sure to know what you want prior to making a buy. It is likely to be used on buses, trains and subways frequently, so it should be easy to manage and use. You may need to juggle the car seat when taking your child to school or the nursery.

From your birth, you are a good candidate

Whether you're expecting twins or have another child after your first, you're likely need to find a stroller that can accommodate the entire family. Double buggies tend to be slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, however they can also be easier to maneuver through narrower doors or around obstacles such as curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as an additional accessory purchase) which means you can carry three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other. They're a good choice if your children are of similar ages and are able to get along. They're not 100% secure. Siblings who are sitting side-by-side could punch or kick one another, and children of different heights could argue over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this problem by elevating the seat towards the rear, preventing your child's older one from sitting on the bottom and not having the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a great alternative for parents who want an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can fit a newborn into a carrycot and an older child in the main seat. It features a smart frame that can be expanded in width when you add a second seat, and folds flat to make it a compact storage. The padded straps, buckles, and seats are all of the highest quality we have encountered in any of our tests. The seats can be reclined independently and the canopy is big and spacious with UPF 50+ protection and peekaboo windows.

The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit expensive. However, a quality tandem will last for many years and have an attractive resale value so in the end you'll probably recoup some of the cost. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating options as our other top selections. It's nevertheless an excellent choice for families that don't want spend much cash.
