Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a fantastic option when you have twins or children who are very close in age. They're a bit smaller than side-byside buggies and are ideal for maneuvering narrow spaces like entrances, on public transportation and on rocky terrain.

Some can be converted to travel systems that can take two carrycots or child car seats. They can be heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

There are many options for adding a second seating or converting a single stroller to double. The UPPAbaby V2 is large, beautiful stroller. It can easily be converted from a single to a double by adding a rumble seat. It is more expensive and less maneuverable since the second seat is positioned on top of the first 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 all-terrain twin buggies, as well as fixed-wheel joggers that can hold two children. They tend to be more expensive, but they're made for long trips over rough terrain and could have a higher resale value.

Independent seat recline

If you want a double stroller that will accommodate children of different age groups, you'll require one with independent seat recliner for both seats. This will allow your child's older to sit back and relax while the baby is in the bassinet, and vice versa.

You'll also have to think about the size of the pushchair, as this will impact how easy it is to get through doors and on public transport. If you have narrow doorways then it might be worth considering 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 and double stroller buggy however it can take 2 seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are usually slightly longer than side-by-side models and therefore aren't difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs, but they can accommodate a bigger range of car seat/car seat combinations, making them a good option for twins or siblings of various ages. They also tend to be more expensive than single-to-double buggies but are a good investment if you plan to keep it for many years and will retain a decent amount of resale value should you decide to sell it off when your children are out of it.

Another crucial thing to look for is whether the seat backs are able to recline independently from one another since this will allow you to place your child in the ideal position for naps or watching. This is important if your child is in the back seat and wants to rest while the more mature child prefers to sit and observe the surroundings.

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

More spacious than twin buggies

There's no need to have twins in order to benefit from a larger double buggy. They're perfect for siblings of various age groups and let you move around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're usually a bit larger too with one seat positioned behind the other, and typically with a fully-flat recline option for babies (or a more upright position for toddlers).

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular option. It is the tiniest design of the two-in-ones on the market, and a footprint like the footprint of a single stroller. It comes with an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake that is helpful on steep hills. It is suitable from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots. This means it's a great travel system.

Another alternative is the iCandy Wave, which has the convenience of a single click to fold and can be used in mono or duo mode. Its innovative frame expands widthways to allow for a second seat and it can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots which makes it an ideal choice for older siblings who wish to sit together and enjoy the view. It's a bit bigger than the other models, but it feels light and has a comfortable suspension for curbs.

There are also plenty of 3-wheeler inline tandems available - check out Phil and Teds inline models, or iCandy's Peach and Pear buggies, for example they offer stability and swift steering. Often these can be folded down to the size of one buggy which is useful for those who struggle with storage at home or need to lug it in and out of your car on public transport.

It's worth bearing in mind that a wide double buggy will feel bulkier and heavier than a compact single buggy So make sure you're getting what you need before you buy. It is likely to be utilized on buses, trains, and subways frequently so it must be easy to manage and use. You might need to manage the car seat on and off when taking your child to school or nursery.

From birth, you are a suitable candidate

You'll need a pushchair for your entire family 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 narrower doorways or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This allows you to transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front of the other. They're a great option for children who are close in age and are able to get along. They're not foolproof. Siblings sitting side-by-side can punch or kick one another and children with different heights may fight over who is sitting higher. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat to the rear, which will prevent your older child from being on the bottom and not having much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a great option for parents looking for an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can accommodate a newborn in a carrycot as well as an older child in the main seat. It features an innovative frame that can be expanded in size when you add a second child seat. It also folds flat to make it a compact storage. The padded seats, straps and buckles are all of the best quality we have seen in our testing. The canopy is large in size, UPF 50+ protection, as well as a windows that peek out. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only drawback of the iCandy is that it's a little on the expensive side, but a quality tandem will last for a long time and maintain its resale value, which means you'll probably recoup some of the cost in the end. It doesn't have the same variety of seating options as some of our other top picks however the iCandy is a good option for families who don't want to spend a fortune.
