Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a great choice when you have twins or children who are close in age. They're a bit smaller than side-byside buggies and are ideal for maneuvering tight spaces, such as doors, on public transport and rocky terrain.

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

Convertible

If you're looking for a convertible stroller that can be converted from a single to a double or to add another seat to an existing one, there are a variety of options available. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a big, beautiful stroller that converts easily from a single model to a double by adding the rumble seating (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable due to the fact that the second seat is located on top of the first seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model with great seating versatility but lacks under-seat storage when used in doubles mode.

Other options include all-terrain twin buggies and fixed-wheel joggers that can accommodate two children. They are generally more expensive, however they're designed for long trips over rough terrain and can have more resale value.

Reclining the seat independently

If you're looking for a double Seat stroller stroller that will accommodate children of various ages, you will need one with independent seat recliner for both seats. This will allow your older child to relax while the baby is in a bassinet, and vice versa.

Consider the width of your pushchair and consider the ease of you to navigate through doors and public transportation. If your doors are narrow, you may want to consider a side-by-side pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint that is similar to a single stroller, but it can accommodate two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are typically larger than side-by-side models, which makes them more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of seats/carrycots/car seats and can make a great option for twins and siblings of different ages. They can also be more expensive than single-to-double buggies but are a good investment if you plan to keep it for a long time and will retain a decent amount of resale value in the event that you decide to sell it when your children are out of it.

This feature will allow you to place your child in a comfortable position for naps and observation. This is particularly important if you have a younger child in the rear seat who will prefer to lay back and relax while the older child would prefer to sit up and observe their surroundings.

Certain brands come with a unique design for their seats that allows the back seat to fully recline to an almost flat position that is perfect for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example, has stadium-style seating that can be reclined in multiple positions. It also offers a UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

More spacious than twin buggies

It's not necessary to have twins to benefit from a wider double buggy. They're great for siblings of different age groups and let you get around without having to worry about your children touching. They're usually a bit longer too with one seat positioned behind the other and providing a flat recline for babies (or a more upright position for toddlers).

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which has the slimmest side-byside design available and features the same footprint as a single buggy. It comes with an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push and a handbrake, which is helpful on steep hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, which means it makes an excellent travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It folds in duo or mono mode with just one click. Its clever frame expands widthways to allow for a second seat and it can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent choice for older siblings who want to sit in a group and share the view. It's a bit bigger than the other models, but it feels light and has a comfortable suspension for the kerbs.

There are plenty of 3-wheeler tandems with inline tires that offer stability and quick steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. Most of them can be folded into the size of a single buggy which is useful if you struggle with storage at home or need to carry it in and out of your car when you travel on public transport.

Be aware that a double-wide buggy will be more heavy and heavier than one compact buggy. Make sure you know what you want before you buy. It will be used on buses, trains and subways often, so it should be easy to manage and use. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat on and off when taking your child to school or to nursery.

The best time to start is when you are born.

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 buggies are typically larger, heavier and cost more than single strollers double. However, they can also be easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles like curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to carry three children simultaneously.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other, so they're often a better choice when you have two children who are similar in age to get along well together. They're not foolproof. Siblings seated side-by-side may punch or kick each other and children with different heights could argue over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model could solve this problem by elevating the seat at the rear, preventing your child's older one from being on the bottom and not getting any 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 is able to accommodate both infants and an older child. It has an innovative frame that increases in size when you add a second child seat. It folds flat to make it a compact double buggy storage. The cushioned seats, straps and buckles are all of the best double stroller quality we have encountered in any of our tests. The canopy is large in size and UPF 50+ protection, as well as a peekaboo window. Both seats can recline independently.

The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it is a bit expensive. But a high-quality tandem will last you for a long time and will have a high resale price, so in the end you'll likely recover a portion of the cost. The iCandy doesn't come with the same seating options as our other top picks. It's nevertheless an excellent choice for families who don't wish to spend much cash.
