Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

If you have twins or children very similar in age, a tandem double buggy is a great option. They're smaller than side-by-side buggies and ideal for navigating narrow spaces like doors, on public transport and on rocky terrain.

Some are able to be converted into travel systems that can take two carrycots or car seats for children. However, they are heavier and longer than single pushchairs and may not be as stable when bumping up kerbs.

Convertible

There are many options for adding a second seating or making a single stroller a double. The UPPAbaby V2 is spacious, gorgeous stroller. It can be easily transformed from a single stroller to a dual by adding the rumble seat. It's costly and less mobile than other double pram stroller strollers because the 2nd seat is placed in front of the front seat. The Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model with great seating flexibility, however it lacks under-seat storage when used in doubles mode.

Other options include all-terrain twin buggies and fixed-wheel joggers that can hold two children. These tend to be more expensive, but they're made for long-distance trips over rough terrain and can have greater resales value.

Independent recline of the seat

If you want a double stroller that will accommodate children of various ages, you will need one with an independent recliner for both seats. This will allow your child's older to rest in the back while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and vice versa.

You'll also have to consider the width of the pushchair double, as this will affect how easy it is to traverse doors and public transport. If you have extremely narrow doorways then it might be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair double, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy however it can use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are typically longer than side by side models, which makes them more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However they can be able to accommodate more combinations of car seats/car seats/seats and are an excellent choice for twins and siblings of various age groups. They are also more expensive than single and double stroller-to-double buggies but are a worthwhile purchase if you plan to keep it for years 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 thing to look out for is if the backs of the seats can recline independently of each other because this allows you to put your child in the best position to nap or observe. This is important for children who are in the back seat and wants to take a nap while the child in the front prefers to sit and observe the surroundings.

Certain brands have a distinctive design that allows the back of their vehicles to recline fully to a position that is nearly flat, which is ideal for newborns. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline the included toddler seat as well as the optional RumbleSeat into various positions to give your kids a the option of where they want to sit as well as providing an excellent UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out.

More spacious than twin buggies

They are perfect for siblings with different age groups, and they allow you to move around without having to worry about your children touching. They're usually a bit larger with one seat positioned behind the other and offering a fully-flat recline for infants (or an upright position for toddlers).

Mountain Buggy Duet is a popular choice. It is the slimmest design side-by-side on the market, and a footprint that is similar to the footprint of a single stroller. It also comes with an adjustable handle, which makes it easier for parents of different heights to push as well as an adjustable handbrake, which can be useful when you have to climb steep hills. It can be used from birth and is compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots, meaning it is a great travel system.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in either mono or duo mode with just a single click. Its clever frame can be expanded to allow for a second seat and can be used with two car seats or carrycots making it a great choice for older siblings who wish to sit together and share the view. It's slightly longer than some other models but still feels light to steer and has soft suspension to tackle kerbs.

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 instance - which offer stability and swift steering. They are often folded down to the size of one buggie, which is helpful for those who struggle with storage at home or have to carry it in and out of the car when using public transportation.

Be aware that a double-wide buggy is heavier and more bulkier than a single compact buggy. Make sure you know what you want before you purchase. It will be used on buses, trains, and subways frequently therefore it must be simple to operate and use. You may also need to move it on and off the car seat when you take your children to school or nursery so you'll need to know it is able to be maneuvered in tight spaces.

The best time to start is when you are born.

You'll need a pushchair for your entire family whether you're expecting twins, or if you have a child after having your first. Double buggies are generally a bit heavier, bulkier and cost more than single strollers, however they can also be easier to maneuver in narrower entrances or around obstacles like curbs. Many double buggies work with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to carry three children simultaneously.

Tandem pushchairs place one child ahead of the other. They are a good option for children who are of similar ages and get along well. But they're not foolproof: Siblings in side-by-side seats can kick or punch each other, and children who are different heights can argue over who gets to sit higher. This problem can be solved by a tandem high-low model that raises the seat in the rear. Your child's older isn't seated at the lower part of the car, and won't have much of an eye.

The iCandy Wave is a great choice for parents looking for an easy-to-use double buggy that converts to accommodate a newborn in a carrycot and an older child in the main seat. It has a clever frame that can be expanded in width when you add a second seat and folds down to flattish storage. The cushioned buckles, straps and seats are all of the highest quality we have encountered in any of our tests. The seats can be reclined independently and the canopies are large and generous with UPF 50+ protection as well as windows that peek out.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit costly. However, a good tandem will last you for years and retain an attractive resale value so in the end you'll likely recover some of the cost. It doesn't have the same variety of seating configurations as others of our top picks however, the iCandy is a great choice for families who don't want to shell out a lot of money.
