Buying a Tandem Double BuggyIf you have twins or children very similar in age, a tandem double buggy is a great choice. They are smaller than side-by-side buggies and are perfect for tight spaces like doorways, public transport and rocky terrain.Some are able to be converted into travel systems that take two carrycots or child car seats. However, they can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and may not be as stable when bumping up the kerbs.ConvertibleIf you're looking for convertible stroller that converts from single to double or to add a second seat to an existing one, there's a variety of options available. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a spacious, gorgeous stroller that easily converts from a single model to double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). It's costly and less maneuverable than other dual strollers since the second seat is placed in front of the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow provides a similar choice but lacks storage under the seat when it's used as a double stroller.Other options include all-terrain twin buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers which can be used to accommodate two children. They are generally more expensive, but they're made for long-distance trips over rough terrain and can have more resale value.Independent seat reclineIf you need a double buggy to transport children of different age groups, then you'll want one that has recline that is independent for both seats. This will allow your child's older to rest in the back while the baby is in the bassinet, and reverse.It is also important to think about the size of the pushchair, as this will affect the ease of navigate through doors and on public transport. If you have very narrow doorways then it might be worth considering a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint similar to a single buggy but can still use two seats and car seat adaptors.Tandem buggies generally are a little longer than side-by-side models, and aren't as easily maneuverable up and down kerbs, but they can accommodate a bigger range of car/car/seat combinations, making them a good option for twins or siblings of various age groups. They can also be more expensive than single-to-double buggies, but are a worthwhile investment if you plan to keep it for years and will retain a decent amount of resale value if you decide to sell it after your children have grown out of it.This feature will allow you to put your child in the most comfortable position for naps or observation. This is particularly important if you have a child younger than in the rear seat who will prefer to lay back and take a snooze while the more mature child wants to sit up and look around their surroundings.Some brands feature a unique design for their seats that allows the back seat to completely recline into a nearly flat position that is perfect for newborns. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined to multiple positions. It also has UPF 50+ sun protection and peekaboo windows.More spacious than twin buggiesIt's not necessary to have twins in order to benefit from a bigger double buggy. They're perfect for siblings of various age groups. They allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching. They're typically a bit longer with one seat in front of the other. The seats can be reclined completely for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which is the tiniest side-by-side model available and features an identical footprint to one buggy. It features an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake, which is useful on steep hills. It is suitable for use from birth, and can be used with a range of car seats and carrycots.Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has an easy one-click fold and can be used in mono or duo mode. Its innovative frame can be expanded widthwise to allow for a second seat and it can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent choice for older siblings who wish to sit together and share the view. It's a bit bigger than the other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for the kerbs.There are a lot of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available Check out Phil and Teds' inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies, for example - which provide stability and quick steering. They can be folded into one buggy if you have limited space at home or need to transport it from the car to the bus stop.It's important to remember that a large double buggy will be heavier and bulkier than a smaller single buggy So make sure you're getting what you need before purchasing. It will be utilized on buses, trains and subways often, therefore it must be simple to use and manage. You may need to juggle the car seat on and off when taking your child to school or the nursery.From birth, you are a suitable candidateWhether you're expecting twins or have a second child after your first, you're likely need to find a pushchair that fits the entire family. Double buggies tend to be larger, heavier and cost more than single strollers, however they are also more maneuverable in narrower doorways or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies work with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This lets you transport three children simultaneously.Tandem pushchairs place one child ahead of the other. They're a great choice if your children are close in age and are able to get along. They're not completely safe. Siblings seated side-by-side may punch or kick each other, and children of different heights could argue over who sits taller. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat at the rear, which will prevent your child's height from being sat 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 that includes a carrycot that can accommodate both infants and an older child. It has a clever frame which expands in width when you add a second child seat. It can also fold flat for compact storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps easy to fasten, and the buckles some of the most comfortable we've seen on any of our tests. The canopies have a generous size, UPF 50+ protection, as well as a windows that peek out. Both seats are reclined independently.The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's expensive, but a quality tandem will last for years and maintain its resale value. So you'll probably get back some of the cost in the end. The iCandy does not have the same seating options as our other top picks. However, Push Chairs And Prams 's an ideal choice for families who don't wish to spend lots of money.
