A Double Buggy Is a Must-Have For Families With Two Kids

A double buggy will be an essential item for families with more than one child. It will enable you to navigate through urban areas and off road trails with ease while keeping the kids comfortable and content.

There are many things to consider when choosing a double buggy. Be sure that it will fit through your car boot and your doorway when folded.

Lightweight

The prospect of bringing a second child home is a thrilling prospect, but there are a lot of practical issues to be considered. The addition of a child to the family means redesigning living spaces, rethinking car seats, and of course, buying a brand new double tandem pushchair buggy.

If you're looking for twins or just need something a little more compact, there are lots of excellent options out there. Our lab experts love the iCandy Peach, which comes with a set of accessories that other brands cost extra for and folds very neatly into place to take up little space in your boot. Testers find it rolls well and is easy to maneuver. However, it could be a bit long when you're in double mode.

Side-by-side buggies can be great for keeping your children together but they tend to be larger than a single and double stroller buggy which can make them difficult to navigate up and down kerbs. The Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury is the slimmest side-by-side available on the market and, at just 63cm wide, it's the same width as one pushchair. This makes it easy to fit through doors and on public transport. It is compatible with a variety of car seats, and can grow with your family. You can use it as mono or tandem buggy after your children are old enough to be seated together.

The height-adjustable handle is great for steering, and the suspension is able to make light work of rough surfaces. It's an excellent choice for older children, since it comes with a seat that's elevated to give them an even better view of the action. It's not as lightweight as other models, however it's still a great option.

You'll be pushing your double buggy a lot so it's essential to choose a model that feels easy to push. Find a handle with a padded grip that is made to fit your height. Also, consider a big basket with many pockets and compartments. When you're not using your buggy, it's worth considering how easily it folds up and put away.

Easy to Manoeuvre

There are some amazing double buggies on the market that make traveling with two kids much simpler. For example the iCandy Orange is an all-in-one option that can carry twins (or one toddler and a baby) with both seats/carrycots facing either backward or forward and even a third one with the 'piggyback' board (sold separately). Its sleek frame, light weight, swivel wheels, and suspension allow it to be easily moved in the city and over rougher terrain.

The Joie Evalite Duo is another side-byside model that's extremely light and has a compact footprint. They can be easily put away with the seats attached. They require more effort to push them over kerbs, and they aren't ideal for uneven surfaces. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another ideal option since it can be used with both carseats or seats in tandem mode but can also be used as a single buggy thanks to its clever frame that can be expanded widthways, and an adjustable height handle, making it really easy to steer with just one hand.

If you are planning to use public transportation frequently you might want to consider a double buggy that has big wheels. These are better for rough or uneven surfaces. Check the ease to fold and unfold the buggy, as well as the size of the buggy when folded, to determine if it can fit in your car. If you reside in an area that has narrow streets, consider a double stroller that has the child is seated behind their companion, rather than in front of them. This makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces.

Plenty of storage

A double buggy isn't a necessity for every family however it can make outings more manageable for families with toddlers and newborns. If you're looking to purchase a light model that's easy to steer take a look at the variety of side-by-side double buggies. These offer lots of space under in the form of a spacious basket and additional side and rear pockets for all your baby essentials. Some models have handles that are adjustable that can be adjusted to accommodate parents of different heights. They fold up neatly to a compact size which makes them perfect to use in tight spaces or in the boot.

All-terrain double strollers are a good option if you're seeking a more durable model. They're typically twins, and are more difficult to maneuver, however they usually come with a reclined seat that is perfect for toddlers and infants. They are a great choice for those who love the outdoors and active family members. Some allow you to transform the buggy into Jogger, which makes them perfect for running and exercise.

Many of the best double buggies can accommodate various combinations of carrycots, car seats and seats. This makes them a great option for families with twins or children who are similar in age but it's worth looking over the specs of any model you're considering to make sure it's suitable for your needs.

There are two primary kinds of double buggy - twin that is where your children sit together, or tandem, where one seat is placed in front of the other. A twin buggy has one main advantage that your children can play together, rather than fighting over who gets to sit in front. However, twin buggys are usually wider and can be difficult to navigate through doorways and supermarket aisles.

Tandem buggies tend to be a little shorter than single and double stroller buggies, but are still longer. They are also less stable and might require dismantling in order to fit into your car's boot. Independent seat recline is nowadays a standard feature on the majority of double buggies, so ensure that the model will let you adjust each child's seat to the position that they are most comfortable in.

Comfort

A quality double buggy will offer both children and parents plenty of comfort. Examine the padding of the straps and the amount of recline each seat is able to achieve. Also, verify if the seats can be adjusted separately so that you can adjust to your child's needs. Check the weight limits too and if they have a sun canopy as well as an hood to protect your children from rain and wind.

Consider the use of a baby carrier to replace a double stroller. They are suitable for toddlers who would like to walk but need to ride in a car, and they are also ideal for infants and newborns. Some carriers can be used in conjunction with the car seat for more flexibility.

Some parents believe that a side-by-side pushchairs double buggy is the most convenient option. However there are some new models on the market, like the Mountain Buggy Duet Luxurious in herringbone. It is the lightest double buggy side by side on the market.

The Wave from Mamas & Papas is another clever choice that offers more configuration options than other tandem buggies. It is a mono-pushchair and then you can add a second or carrycot to the frame with adaptors. This provides you with an array of seating options. It is easy to control, has an excellent suspension and Lab experts were amazed by how simple it was fold. You just pull up on the two straps (one underneath each seat) and you can fold the whole thing in just a few seconds.
