Style

double buggy travel system buggies are generally larger and heavier. If you plan to purchase one that you will keep for a long period of time be aware of this.

The most popular double buggy designs are side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems are designed with children sitting side-by-side with the same perspective. This can help avoid siblings fighting over seating. However, they're still not 100% secure, and children can kick or punch each other while riding. The side-by-side model is more conventional with two fixed seats positioned on a single wide stroller frame. They may not have as many configurations and are ideal for infants who are able to sit on their own but do not need the back support provided by an infant car seat.

This clever model expands widthways to switch from mono to twin mode, allowing either two or more carrycots or infant seats. It's also compact when folded and has a large shopping basket, as well as rear and front suspensions for smoother travel. The seats as well as the added RumbleSeat are comfortable and padded with adjustable foot and leg rests, as well as generous UPF 50+ canopies that offer plenty of shade.

Our testers also appreciated that the seat reclines at a variety of angles. The only drawback is that the fold isn't as compact as some other models, however our lab experts say it opens and closes easily.

Double strollers double strollers are typically heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single buggies. However, they're a must-have for families with two kids that are close in age (generally under 4). Choose a brand that will last for a long time and keep its value.

Tandem buggies begin as an individual pushchair, but they have adaptors that let you add an additional seat, carrycot or (in some cases) car seats to the frame. Some are fixed doubles but others, such as this one made by Leclerc can be changed to a side-by-side configuration when your children are old enough.

A front-facing tandem could be an ideal alternative to a traditional side-by-side model for older children. It can also reduce the likelihood of sibling fights since your children aren't directly facing eachother. It's worth noting that some kids may feel isolated or lonely in a front-facing tandem, as they won't have the same view of their surroundings.
