Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a great choice when you have twins or children who are close in age. They are smaller than side by side buggies, and are ideal for tight spaces like doors, public transport and terrain that is rocky.

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

Convertible

There are many options for adding a second seating or changing a single stroller into a double. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a large, gorgeous stroller that converts easily from a single stroller to a double pushchair by adding the rumble seat (available separately). It's costly and less maneuverable than other dual strollers due to the fact that the second seat goes behind the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model but lacks storage under the seat when used as a double infant stroller stroller.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can be used to carry two children. These are more expensive, but they are designed for long-distance trips over rough terrain, and come with higher resale prices.

Reclining the seat independently

If you want a double stroller that can accommodate children of different age groups, you'll require one with an independent recliner for both seats. This will allow your older child to relax while the baby is sleeping in a bassinet, and the reverse is true.

Take into consideration the size of your pushchair and consider how easy it is for you to maneuver through doors and public transportation. If you have extremely narrow doors, it may be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy, however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are typically larger than side-by-side models, making them 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 a great option for twins and siblings of different age. These buggies are more expensive than single to double buggies however they're worth it if you intend to keep it for a few years. They will also retain some value if sold when your children have outgrown the buggie.

Another important feature to look for is if the seat backs are able to recline independently of one another as this will let you put your child in the most optimal position for napping or observation. This is crucial for children who are in the back seat and would like to rest while the older child prefers to sit and observe the surrounding.

Some brands have a unique design that allows the back seat of their vehicles to fully recline into a position that is almost flat, ideal for babies. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating that can recline both the toddler seat included and the additional RumbleSeat into various positions to give your kids a a choice of where to sit as well as offering an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that can be seen from afar.

Wider than twin buggies

They are ideal for siblings with different age groups, and they allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching. They're typically a bit longer too, with one seat sitting behind the other, and typically offering a fully-flat recline for babies (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 a footprint similar to a single buggy. It also has an adjustable handle, making it easier for parents of different heights to push, and an adjustable handbrake, which is useful when tackling steep hills. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, meaning it's a great travel system.

Another option is the iCandy Wave, which has the convenience of a single click to fold and can be used in duo or mono mode. Its clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second chair and can be used with up to two carrycots or car seats so it's an excellent option for older siblings that wish to sit together and enjoy the view. It's slightly longer than some other models, but it's light to steer and comes with soft suspension that can handle the kerbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that offer stability and quick steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. These can often be folded into one buggy if you are limited in space at home or need to transport it from the car to the bus stop.

Be aware that a double buggy from birth wide buggy will be heavier and heavier than one compact buggy. Be sure to know what you want before you buy. It will be used on buses, trains and subways frequently, so it must be easy to use and manage. You may need to juggle the car seat in and out when you take your child to school or the nursery.

From your birth, you are an ideal candidate

You'll need a pushchair for your entire family, whether you're expecting twins, or if you have a child after having your first. Double stroller for tall parents buggies are generally heavier and bulkier as well as more expensive than single strollers. However, they are more maneuverable in tighter doors or around obstacles such as curbs. They are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or as a separate accessory purchase) which means you can carry three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs double place one child in front of the other, and they're generally a better option for families with two children who are similar in age to get along well. However, they're not 100% secure: Siblings in side-by-side seats may punch or kick each other, and kids who are different heights can argue over who gets to sit higher. This issue can be addressed by a tandem high-low model that elevates the seat at the rear. Your older child isn't seated at the bottom of the car and won't have much of an opportunity to see.

The iCandy Wave is a great alternative for parents who want an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can fit both a newborn in a carrycot, and an older child in the main seat. It features a smart frame that expands in width when you add a second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The padded seats are comfortable, the straps easy to fasten and the buckles some of the best we've seen on any of our tests. You can recline both seats independently and the canopies are spacious and large with UPF 50+ protection and windows that peek out.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's a little on the expensive side however, a good tandem will last a long time and retain its resale value. So you'll probably get back some of the cost in the end. It doesn't come with the same variety of seating configurations as some of our other top choices, but the iCandy is a good choice for families who don't want to spend a lot.
