A Double Buggy Is a Must-Have For Families With Two Kids

A cheap double stroller buggy is essential for families with two children. It will enable you to navigate urban pathways and off road double buggy-road trails with ease whilst keeping your kids safe and happy.

When selecting a double stroller, there are many things to consider. Firstly, check that it will fit through your door and into the car boot when folded.

Lightweight

It's exciting to bring another child into the family but there are a number of practical considerations. The addition of a child to the family means redesigning living spaces, rethinking car seats, and of course, buying a new double buggy.

If you're looking for twins or just require something smaller, there are lots of options available on the market. Our experts at the lab recommend iCandy Peach because it comes with a variety of accessories that competitors will cost additional fees for. It also folds in a neat way to take up less space in your boot. The Peach is well-balanced and is a breeze to maneuver. It may feel a little long when in double mode.

Side-by-side buggies are ideal for keeping children together but they are a bit wider than a single stroller. This can make it difficult to navigate through kerbs and up and down. The Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury is the slimmest side-by-side on the market though and, at just 63cm wide, it's the same as the single pushchair. It's easy to get through doors and into public transportation. It is compatible with a variety of car seats, and it can grow with your family. It can be used as a mono or tandem buggy after your children are old enough to sit together.

The adjustable height handle is great for steering and the suspension can take care of rough surfaces. It's a great option for older kids, since it has a seat elevated stadium style to give them a better view of the action. It's not quite as light than other models, but it's still an excellent choice.

It is essential to choose a double buggy that is comfortable to push. Look for a handle with a cushioned grip that is made to fit your height. Also, look for a large basket that has plenty of compartments and pockets. When you're not using your buggy, you should consider checking how easily it folds up and stored.

Easy to manoeuvre

There are some incredible double buggies on the market that make getting out and about with two kids much easier. For example the iCandy Orange is an all-in-one option that can accommodate twins (or one baby and a toddler) with both carrycots or seats facing forward or backward, and even a third seat with piggyback boards (sold separately). Its slim, sleek frame with swivel front wheels, swivel rear wheels and suspension makes it easy to maneuver through town and on rougher terrain.

Other models that are side-by-side, such as the Joie Evalite Duo are also incredibly lightweight and have a compact footprint so they're easy to fit through doors and on public transport and often you can put them away with the seats still attached. However, they need some more strength to push over kerbs and can be more challenging on uneven surfaces. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another ideal option since it can take both seats/carrycots in tandem, but can also be used as a single buggy due to its clever frame that expands widthways. It also has an adjustable height handle, which makes it easy to steer with just one hand.

If you intend to use public transport often, think about whether you'll need a double buggy that has big wheels since they tend to be more tolerant of rough or uneven surfaces. Additionally, take note of the ease with which you can fold and unfold the buggy, as well as how wide it is when folded to see if your boot will be able to accommodate it. If you live in a small town or village and have narrow roads, you should consider a double buggy that has the child sits behind the other, rather than in front of them, as this will make it easier to navigate tight spaces.

Plenty of storage

Double buggies aren't necessary for every family, but they can make life easier for families with toddlers and infants. Take a look at the side-by-side buggies for an easy-to-drive, lightweight model. These offer lots of space under in the form of a deep basket as well as rear and side pockets to store all the baby necessities. Many models have adjustable handles that can be adjusted to fit parents of different heights. They also fold neatly into a compact size making them ideal for small spaces or in the boot.

If you're looking for a more robust double buggy, try one of the all-terrain models. They are usually twins and can be more difficult to maneuver, but they'll often come with a reclining seat designed for newborns and older babies, and are a great choice for outdoor enthusiasts and active families. Some of them allow you to convert the buggy into a running jogger, making them ideal for exercise and running.

Many of the top double buggies are able to accommodate a variety of combinations of seats, carrycots, and car seats. This makes them an excellent option for families with twins or siblings who are close in age, but it's worth checking the specifications of any model you're considering to make sure it's suitable for your needs.

There are two main types of double buggy - twin strollers for newborns, where your children sit side-by-side, and tandem, where one seat is placed in front of the other. The main advantage of twin stroller with car seats buggy is that your children will be able to communicate, rather than having to switch places or fight over who has the top place. However, twins tend to be larger and can be difficult to navigate through the supermarket's doorways and aisles.

Tandem buggies are usually slightly shorter than single buggies, however they are still longer. They're also less stable when bumping up kerbs, and may require dismantling to fit in your car boot. Most double buggies have recline that is independent, which is nowadays a standard feature. Make sure that the model has the ability to adjust the child's seat to a position that they are most comfortable in.

Comfort

A well-designed double buggy should provide both parents and children plenty of comfort. Look out for padding on the straps, how much recline each seat can achieve and if the seats can be independently adjusted to allow you to adjust them as your children develop. Check the weight limits too and whether both have a sun canopy or a hood to shield the seats from rain and wind.

Consider a baby carrier to replace a double stroller. They are great for toddlers who wish to walk but need the comfort of a ride. They are also great for newborns and babies. Some carriers can also be used in conjunction with a car seat for children to give you more flexibility.

Some parents feel that a side-by-side double buggy is the most convenient option. However, there are some innovative models available, such as the Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury in herringbone. It is the lightest double buggy side by side available on the market.

The Wave tandem buggies from Mamas & Papas are another smart choice. They offer more configuration options than other tandem buggies. It starts as a mono-pushchair and then you can add a carrycot or a second one to the frame using adaptors. This offers an array of seating options. It's smooth to steer, has a great suspension, and Lab experts really liked the ease of fold. You just pull up on two straps (one under each seat) and the whole unit folds in a matter of minutes.

A double buggy is an investment however, you'll be able to use it for years and also have an excellent resale price. When looking at prices it is important to keep in mind that buying a name brand model will allow you to purchase additional accessories and upgrades later. Some of our best double buggy-rated double buggies include a handy changing Bag and Carrier at a reasonable price.
