Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

This versatile buggy can be used as a single or double. It comes with 17 different configurations to accommodate children from newborns to toddlers, and even a third when using iCandy’s 'piggyback' board. It is also one of the tiniest double strollers that can be used as a single pushchair.

This is an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds up easily with one hand. It's also suitable for various types of terrains and comes with a convenient shopping bag.

Adaptability

There are a variety of factors to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You'll need to ensure your children are safe and safe while you explore new sights and routes. Also, consider the overall cost size, weight, and durability. A trusted brand (within budget) will increase the chances of resales and make purchasing easier.

There are two types of double buggies with 3 wheel strollers wheels, depending on the number of children you'll be carrying: side by side and front-facing. The side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller, but they have a larger footprint than the front-facing models. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most innovative models on the market. It is the tiniest buggy available. It can even fit through narrow doorways.

Tandem buggies on the contrary, are usually larger. They are designed as a single stroller but can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby, or a child with a newborn due to their innovative seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back' board.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another innovative tandem buggy with the unique 'cinema seat' design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating arrangements and is ideal for parents who have young children who are at different stages of development.

Another option is Phil&teds sport. This multi-award winning buggy is a first in the world that will help protect your wallet in the near future. It begins as an incredible single and can be upgraded to take two (or three!) As your family grows, you can still use the same footprint of a single buggy. This is possible thanks to the sling seat, which is perfect for newborns and offers superior manoeuvrability, stability and the ability to pop kerbs.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys that have 3 wheel double pushchair wheels are easier to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. This is due to the fact that the front wheels are smaller, making them less wide, resulting in less weight on them. This means they can be pushed more easily, and will also be much easier to move between kerbs.

One of the best examples is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy on the market and has the same footprint as one single buggy. This makes it ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or on public transport. It can be used from the moment of birth, since it can be used to accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a great light buggy that is ideal for urban life and is also comfortable on rough or uneven terrain. It is suitable for twins, or even toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only downside is that it's slightly harder to handle than some other models on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you're planning to utilize your buggy for long jogs or walks, then you should spend more on one that can take on rough terrain. Consider a three-3 wheel pushchair travel system model with large back wheels that can take the bumps, plus a suspension system that can absorb shocks. The front wheels should be mounted ideally to give you better control on difficult terrain, and also to allow you to easily navigate around corners.

A quality double buggy will allow you to adjust the seating positions so that both children feel comfortable. The best choices include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests for older children. There's plenty of room to store your shopping, keys, and phone.

Another thing to look for is a smooth fold mechanism. Our Lab experts like models with straps underneath the seats that can pull the buggy apart, or a lever to release an opening that folds the frame in half, which takes just a couple of seconds. Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, making them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-byside that provides the best flexibility for twins or siblings. The clever frame can be expanded in width to accommodate a carrycot or second seat, but still maintaining the same footprint as a single stroller. This means that it can be used through doors and on public transportation. It's a bit heavier than other models, but its smooth ride and effortless handling makes more up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side that offers a huge 30 seating options to meet every need. It's a great choice for twins as the seats can be positioned to face the parents and can be converted into a tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheel pushchair off road-wheel option is ideal for daily use. It's not as large or as expensive as other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel make it more difficult to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. It's easy to push though and can be used as a running buggy by the addition of a separate child car for running.

Safety

Phil&teds Sports can accommodate 2 children in various ways. From toddler to infant, with their car seat adapters, or twin kit. They can even accommodate three kids if you buy their piggyback board on their own (around PS120). Its dual front swivel wheels that are extremely maneuverable and the an easy foot brake make it especially safe. Additionally, the tray that it sits on is bigger than most double buggies, and the canopy has windows that peek out to improve visibility.

This multi-award-winning side-by-side is the tiniest fully-featured all-terrain double buggy on the market. Its footprint is similar to a single buggy, meaning it fits easily through doorways and on public transport. Its suspension is able to take on rough terrain easily and our Lab experts love the fact that it can be folded down to a compact size within a matter of seconds. It also has a hand brake that is mounted on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats can be reversible and you can choose to have your children facing forward or the parents facing one another - perfect for twins and siblings of different ages.
