Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

This versatile buggy can be used as a double or single. It comes with 17 different options to accommodate children ranging from newborns to toddlers, and even a third when using iCandy's 'piggyback' boards. It is also one of the most slim double strollers and fits through doors like a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds up easily by using just one hand. It's also great over varying terrain and has a handy shopping basket.

Adaptability

When it comes to purchasing a double buggy, there's lots to consider. You'll want to make sure your children are comfortable, safe and content while you discover new routes and attractions. You should also consider the price, size, weight, and durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget of course) will help maximise the resale value as well as speed up the purchase process down the line.

There are two kinds of double buggies with 3 wheel pushchair cheap wheels, depending on how many children you will be carrying: side by side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies tends to be smaller but have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. However, there are some super-smart models on the market which manage to keep their dimensions down like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest buggy available. It can even fit through narrow doors.

Tandem buggies, on the other hand, tend to be larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair but can then be adjusted to accommodate a second seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby, or a child with a newborn because of their clever seat layouts. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back Board'.

The iCandy Orange is another super-smart tandem buggy that features an exclusive 'cinema seating' design that allows the rear seat to be lowered or raised to different positions, so you can alter the way your children are seated. It offers a choice of 30 seating configurations and is ideal for parents who have young children at very different stages in development.

Another option is phil&teds sport. This first-of-its-kind, multi award winner buggy will protect your budget by acting as an excellent single from day dot and then adapting to take two (or 3 wheel pushchair travel system!) As your family grows, you can still make use of the same footprint of a single buggy. This is possible thanks to the sling seat, which is ideal for babies and offers superior manoeuvrability, stability and the ability to pop the kerb.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys with 3 wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double pushchairs that have four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less broad, resulting in being lighter in weight. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

A great example of this is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. It is ideal for parents who are concerned about fitting in doorways or on public transport. It can be used from the moment of birth, since it can fit twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It is a lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban life and also a great choice for rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins, or even a baby and toddler thanks to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a little more difficult to handle than some other models on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you plan to take your buggy out for long walks or for jogs it's worth investing in one that can handle rough terrain. Choose a model with three wheels with large rear wheels that can take the bumps and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be securing in order to give you more control over difficult terrain and to enable you to push through corners.

Double buggys that are suitable for two children will allow you the flexibility to alter the seating so that both children can be comfortable. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable footrests as well as reclining seats for older children. You'll have plenty of space to store your shopping phones, keys, and even keys.

Another thing to look for is a simple fold mechanism. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps beneath the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that releases a catch and folds the frame in half in a matter of minutes. Some models can even fold with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-byside that provides the best flexibility for siblings or twins. Its clever frame expands in width to accommodate a second seat or carrycot, yet still has the same footprint as a single stroller. This means that it can be used through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than some other models but its smooth ride and simple handling make the difference.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, comes with 30 seating options that can be modified to meet all needs. It's a great option for twins because the seats can be parent-facing and convert into an a tandem pushchair that has an extra seat/carrycot at the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight 3 wheel stroller reversible seat-wheel model that is suitable for everyday use. It's not as large or costly as other models, but its fixed front wheel and a small turning radius make it more difficult to navigate up and down kerbs. It's simple to push and can be used to running buggy by including a separate child carrier.

Safety

The phil&teds sport is able to take two kids in multiple ways from infant to toddler with their car seat adapters or twin kit and can even cope with three if you use their piggyback board (which you buy separately for about PS120). It is particularly safe due to its dual front swivels that are swivels at the front, maneuverability, and the handy footbrake. Its parent tray is bigger than the majority of double buggies that are lightweight, and the canopies feature windows that can be opened to enhance visibility.

This award-winning side-byside double buggy is the slimmest fully-featured all-terrain double available on the market. It has the same footprint as a single-buggy, which means it is easy to push through doors and transported on public transport. Its suspension can handle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts love that it can fold into a compact form in just a few seconds. It also has a hand brake that is mounted on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats can be reversible so that you can put the children facing the front or the parents facing one another which is ideal for twins and siblings.
