Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

If you have twins or children close in age, a tandem double buggy is a great choice. They're a bit smaller than side-byside buggies and ideal for navigating tight spaces, such as doorways, on public transport and on rocky terrain.

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

Convertible

There are many options for adding a second seating or changing a single stroller into a double. The UPPAbaby V2 is a large, beautiful stroller. It can be easily transformed from a single stroller to a dual by adding a Rumble seat. It is more expensive and less maneuverable because the second seat is positioned in front of the first seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar option with great seating versatility but isn't equipped with storage under the seat when used in doubles mode.

Other options include twin buggies that have All Terrain Double Stroller-terrain wheels, and joggers with fixed wheels that can accommodate two children. These are more expensive, but they are made for long trips on rough terrain and have more expensive resales.

Independent recline of the seat

If you're looking for a amazon double stroller stroller that can accommodate children of various age groups, you'll require one with an independent recliner for both seats. This will allow your older child to rest in the back while the baby is in the bassinet, and the reverse.

It is also important to consider the width of the pushchair as it will impact how easy it is to navigate through doors and on public transport. If you have narrow doorways then it might be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint that is similar to a single buggy however, it is able to use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are usually smaller than side-byside models, and aren't as easy to manoeuvre through kerbs and up and down, but they can accommodate a wider variety of seat/carrycot/car seat combinations so can be a good option for twins or siblings of different age. They are more expensive than single-to-double buggies, but they're worth the cost if you plan 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 crucial thing to look for is whether the seat backs can recline independently of each other because this allows you to place your child in the best position to nap or observe. This is especially important when you have a younger child in the rear seat who may prefer to lay back and relax while the older child would prefer to sit up and observe their surroundings.

A few brands have a unique seat design which allows the back seat to fully recline to an almost flat position which is perfect for infants. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the toddler seat included and the add-on RumbleSeat to multiple positions, so that your children have a a choice of where to sit, as well as offering an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows.

More spacious than twin buggies

They are ideal for siblings of different ages, and you can move about without worrying about your children touching. They're typically a bit larger, with one seat sitting behind the other and usually offering a fully-flat recline for infants (or an upright position for toddlers).

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which is the tiniest side-by-side model on the market and has a footprint similar to one buggy. It also features an adjustable handle, making it easier for parents of different heights to push, and a handbrake, which is helpful when climbing steep hills. It is suitable for use right from birth, and can be paired with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It folds in duo or mono mode with just one click. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second chair and can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots making it a great option for older siblings who wish to sit together and enjoy the view. It's a little bigger than the other models, but it feels light and has soft suspension for the kerbs.

There are also a variety of 3-wheeler inline tandems that are available - check out Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies, for instance that provide stability and quick steering. They can be folded into a single buggy in case you have a small space at home or you need to transport it from the car to the bus station.

It's important to keep in mind that a double-buggy with a wider width will feel heavier and bulkier than a compact single buggy So make sure you're getting what you need before you purchase. It will be utilized on buses, trains and subways often, therefore it must be simple to use and manage. You may also have to juggle it onto and off the car seat when taking your children to nursery or school so you'll need to be aware it can be easily manoeuvred within small spaces.

From birth

You'll need a stroller for your entire family whether you're expecting twins, or you have a second child after you've had your first. Double buggies are typically a bit heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers, however they are also easier to maneuver in narrower doorways or around obstacles like curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via an additional accessory purchase) so you can transport three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs put one child ahead of the other. They're a good option for children who are close in age and are able to get along. But they're not foolproof Siblings in a side-by-side seat may punch or kick each other, and children on different heights can squabble over who gets to sit higher. This problem can be solved by a tandem high-low design that elevates the seat at the rear. Your child's older will not be sitting at the lower part of the car, and won't be able to get an opportunity to see.

The iCandy Wave is a great option for parents looking for 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 has a clever frame which can be expanded in size when you add a second child seat. It also folds flat for storage that is compact. The cushioned seats are comfortable, the straps easy to fasten, and the buckles some of the best we've seen on any of our tests. The seats can be reclined independently and the canopy is big and spacious with UPF 50+ protection and windows that can be seen from a distance.

The only drawback to the iCandy is that it's a bit on the expensive side but a high-quality tandem will last for a long time and will retain its resale value, which means you'll probably recoup some of the cost over the long term. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating arrangements as our other top selections. However, it's an excellent choice for families who don't wish to spend lots of money.
