Why You Should Be Working With This Tandem Double Buggy Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy can be a great choice for twins or children who are very close in age. They are smaller than side by side buggies and are great for small spaces such as doors, public transport, and rocky terrain.

Many convert into travel systems to include two carrycots or car seats. They are typically heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.


Convertible

There are a variety of options to add a second seat or making a single stroller a double. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a spacious, gorgeous stroller that can easily be converted from a single model to double 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 is placed in front of the front seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model with a wide range of seating options, but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

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

Reclining the seat independently

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

Take into consideration the width of your pushchair to determine how easy it is for you to navigate through doors and on public transportation. If your doorways are very narrow, you might be considering a side by side pushchair, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. It has a footprint that is similar to a single stroller however can still fit two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally a little longer than side-by-side models and so aren't as easily maneuverable through kerbs and up and down, however, they can accommodate a wider variety of car/car/seat combinations, making them a good option for twins or siblings of various age. They are also more expensive than single-to-double buggies however they're worth it if you intend on keeping it for many years. They also hold some value if you decide to sell it when your children have outgrown the buggie.

Another important feature to look for is whether the backs of the seats can recline independently of each other since this will allow you to put your child in the best position for napping or observation. This is especially important when you have a young child in the rear seat who will want to lie back and relax while the older child would prefer to sit up and look around their surroundings.

Certain brands have a unique design that allows the back of their vehicles to recline fully to a position that is nearly flat, which is ideal for babies. The iCandy Orange, for example has a stadium-style seating option that can be reclined in several positions. It also comes with UPF 50+ sun protection and windows that peek out.

Wider than twin buggies

They are ideal for siblings with different age groups, and they allow you to move around without worrying about your children touching. They're usually a bit larger too, with one seat sitting behind the other and usually with a fully-flat recline option for babies (or an upright position for toddlers).

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular option. It is the slimmest design that is side-by-side and a footprint that is like one stroller. It features an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake that is useful on steep hills. It is suitable to use from birth and can be paired with a range of car seats and carrycots.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in either mono or duo mode with just one click. Its clever frame can be expanded widthwise to allow for a second seat and can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent option for older siblings who want to sit together and enjoy the view. It's a little bigger than the other models, but it still feels light and has a comfortable suspension for curbs.

There are also a variety of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available such as Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies for instance that provide stability and swift steering. They are often folded down to size one buggy, which is helpful when you have trouble storing it at home or need to carry it in and out of the car when using public transportation.

Be aware that a double wide buggy will be more heavy and more bulkier than one that is compact. Be sure to know what you want prior to making a purchase. You'll be taking it on and off trains, buses and subways regularly so it needs to be easy to operate and manage. It is possible that you will need to move the car seat on and off when taking your child to school or to nursery.

Suitable from birth

There will be a need for a pushchair for the whole family, regardless of whether you're expecting twins or you have another child after you've had your first. Double buggies are typically heavier and bulkier, as well as more expensive than single strollers. However they are also more maneuverable in tighter doorways and around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to transport three children simultaneously.

Tandem pushchairs place one child ahead of the other. They're a great option for children who are close in age and get along well. But they're not completely safe Siblings in a side-by-side seat can kick or punch each other, and children who are different heights can argue over who sits higher. This problem can be solved by a tandem high-low model that elevates the seat in the back. Your older child will not be sitting at the lower part of the car, and won't have much of a look out.

strollers double strollers Pushchairs And Prams is a great option for parents looking for an easy-to-use double buggy that converts to fit a newborn into a carrycot and an older child in the main seat. It features an intelligent frame that increases in size when you add the second child seat. It also folds flat to make it a compact storage. The padded buckles, straps and seats are all of the highest quality we have encountered in our tests. You can recline both seats independently and the canopy is spacious and large with UPF 50+ protection as well as windows that peek out.

The only downside to the iCandy tandem is that it is quite expensive. But a high-quality tandem will last for years and retain a high resale price, so at the end of the day, you'll likely recoup some of the cost. It doesn't come with the same variety of seating configurations that some of our other top picks, but the iCandy is a good option for families who don't want to shell out a lot of money.
