Buying a Tandem lightweight double buggy Buggy

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

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

Convertible

There are a variety of options to add a second seat or making a single stroller double. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a big, beautiful stroller that easily converts from a single to double by incorporating the rumble seat (available separately). It's costly and less mobile than other Luxury Double Stroller strollers since the second seat goes in front of the front seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a comparable model with great seating versatility but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other alternatives include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. These tend to be more expensive, but they're made for long trips over rough terrain, and may have a higher resale value.

Independent recline of the seat

If you're looking for a double buggy that can carry children of different ages then you're going to need a buggy that has an recline that is independent for both seats. This allows your older child to relax while the baby is in the bassinet, and reverse.

You'll also have to consider the width of the pushchair as this will affect the ease of traverse doors and public transport. If you have very narrow doors, it could be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy, however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger than side-by-side models, and therefore are more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However they can also accommodate a wider range of combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are the perfect choice for twins and siblings of various age. They can also be more expensive than single-to-double buggies, but are a worthwhile investment if you intend to keep it for many years and have a good amount of resale value in the event that you sell it on after your children have grown out of it.

Another important feature 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 best position to nap or observe. This is crucial for children who are in the back seat and wants to take a nap while the child in the front prefers to sit and observe the surrounding.

Some brands have a unique design that allows the back of their vehicles to fully recline into a position that is almost flat, perfect for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined to several positions. It also comes with a UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out.

Larger than twin buggies

They are great for siblings with different ages, and you can move about without worrying about your children touching. They're usually a bit larger too with one seat placed behind the other and offering a fully-flat recline for infants (or a more upright position for toddlers).

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which is the tiniest side-by-side model available and features the same footprint as 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 from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots. This means it is a great travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in duo or mono mode with just one click. Its clever frame expands in width to accommodate a second chair and can be used to accommodate up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it a fantastic option for older siblings who wish to be seated together. It's slightly bigger than the other models, but it isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for kerbs.

There are also plenty of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available Check out 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 one buggy in case you have a small double stroller space at home, or need to transport it from your car to the bus stop.

It's important to keep in mind that a double buggy that converts to single-buggy with a wider width will feel heavier and bulkier than a compact single buggy Make sure that you're getting what you need before purchasing. You'll need to take it on and off trains, buses and subways regularly so it needs to be easy to use and manage. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat in and out when taking your child to school or to nursery.

The best time to start is when you are born.

If you're expecting twins or you have a child following your first, you're likely to need to find an appropriate pushchair for the whole family. Double buggies tend to be heavier, bulkier, and more expensive than single strollers. However they are much easier to maneuver in tighter doors and around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This lets you transport three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front the other. They are a good option if your children are similar in age and are good friends. But they're not foolproof Side-by-side chairs can kick or punch each other, and kids on different heights can squabble over who gets to sit higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this problem by elevating the seat towards the rear, preventing your child's older one from being sat on the bottom and not having the best view.

The iCandy Wave is a good option for parents who are looking for an adjustable double buggy that can be converted into a carrycot that can accommodate both infants and an older child. It features a clever frame that expands in width when you add the second seat. It folds flat for compact storage. The padded buckles, straps and seats are all of the best double buggy quality we have encountered in any of our tests. The canopies are large in size with UPF 50+ protection, and a the window is peekaboo. Both seats can recline independently.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's expensive however, a good tandem will last a long time and retain its resale value, so you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the long run. The iCandy does not have the same seating arrangements as our other top selections. However, it's a good option for families who don't wish to spend lots of cash.
