You ll Never Be Able To Figure Out This Tandem Double Buggy s Benefits

Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double pram buggy buggy can be a great choice when you have 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 doorways, public transport and rough terrain.

Many convert into travel systems to use two carrycots or car seats. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and may feel less stable bumping up kerbs.

Convertible

There are a variety of options to add a second seat or changing a single stroller into double. The UPPAbaby V2 is large, beautiful stroller. It is easily changed from a single to a double pram buggy by adding a seating area with a rumble. It's costly and less mobile than other stokke double stroller strollers since the second seat is located in front of the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model, but it lacks storage under the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other options include all-terrain twin buggies and fixed-wheel joggers which can be used to accommodate two children. They are more expensive, however, they are designed to last longer on rough terrain, and come with more expensive resales.

Reclining the seat independently

If you require a double buggy that can carry children of different age groups, then you'll require a model with an recline that is independent for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to rest while the baby is in the bassinet, and reverse.

Take into consideration the width of your pushchair, as this will determine the ease of you to maneuver through doors and public transport. If you have extremely narrow doors, it may be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are generally longer than side by side models, and therefore are more difficult to maneuver around and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and can make a great option for twins and siblings of different age groups. They can also be more expensive than single-to double buggies, but are worth the investment if you intend to keep it for a long time and will retain a decent amount of resale value in the event that you sell it on when your children are out of it.

Another important feature to look for is if the seat backs are able to recline independently of one another as this will let you put your child in the most optimal position for naps or watching. This is particularly important if you have a younger child in the rear seat who may be inclined to lie down and relax while the older child wants to sit up and look around their surroundings.

Certain brands come with a unique seat design which allows the back seat to completely recline into a nearly flat position that is perfect for infants. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the toddler seat included and the additional RumbleSeat into multiple positions to give your kids a a choice of where to sit, and also comes with an excellent UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows.

Larger than twin buggies

You don't need to have twins in order to benefit from a wider double buggy. They're great for siblings of different age groups and let you go about your day without having to worry about your children touching. They're usually a more spacious, with one seat behind the other. The seats can be reclined fully for newborns or in an upright position for toddlers.

A popular choice is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which has the slimmest side-byside design available and features an identical footprint to a single buggy. It features an adjustable handle that makes it easier for parents to push, and a handbrake, which is useful on steep hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, which means it is a great travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It folds in mono or duo mode in a single click. Its innovative frame can be expanded widthwise to accommodate a second seat and it can be used with two car seats or carrycots so it's an excellent option for older siblings that want to sit together and share the view. It's a little larger than other models, but it still isn't heavy and has a soft suspension for the kerbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that provide stability and fast steering. Take a look at Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They can be folded into a single buggy if you are limited in space at home or you need to carry it from the car to the bus.

It's important to remember that a wide double buggy will feel heavier and bulkier than a single buggy that is smaller So make sure you're getting what you need before purchasing. You'll be taking it on and off trains, buses and subways often, so it should be easy to use and manage. You might need to manage the car seat in and out while taking your child to school or to nursery.

Suitable from birth

If you're expecting twins or have a second child after your first, you're likely to need to find a stroller that can accommodate the whole family. Double buggies are generally slightly heavier, bulkier and cost more than single strollers, but they are also easier to manoeuvre in narrower doorways or around obstacles like curbs. Many are also compatible with piggyback ride-along boards (either from the manufacturer or via an accessory purchase) so you can transport three children at a time.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in front the other. They're a great option for children who are of similar ages and are good friends. However, they're not 100% secure Siblings in a side-by-side seat could kick or punch each other, and kids who are different heights can argue over who sits higher. A tandem high-low model is able to solve this problem by elevating the seat towards the rear, preventing your child's older one from being sat on the bottom and not having the best double strollers view.

The iCandy Wave is a great choice for parents looking for an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can accommodate a newborn in a carrycot and an older child in the main seat. It has an innovative frame that can be expanded in size when you add the second child seat. It folds flat for storage that is compact. The cushioned seats are comfortable, the straps are easy to secure and the buckles some of the most impressive we've seen in any of our tests. The canopies have a generous size and UPF 50+ protection, and peekaboo window. Both seats are reclined independently.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit expensive. However, a quality tandem will last you for a long time and will have the highest resale value, so in the end, you'll likely recoup a portion of the cost. The iCandy does not have the same seating configurations as our other top selections. It's nevertheless an ideal choice for families who don't wish to spend a lot of money.
