When choosing the perfect double buggy, there are a lot of aspects to consider. We spoke to Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options to age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.
This buggy is a must-have for active families. It will grow with your family from toddlers to twins. It is lightweight and movable, and can maneuver through uneven terrain easily.
What type of buggy would you like?
A stokke double stroller buggy is great for transporting two kids, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also serve as prams and have a reclining mechanism in each seat, so your children can lie down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from snacks and drinks to wipes and nappies. They are often lightweight, fold easily, and compact enough to fit into your car's boot. If you drive a lot it's important to make sure the buggy is easy to manoeuvre using the folded wheels, and to take out and back into your car boot.
You might have seen this type of double buggy on other mums strollers or even in one as a kid. They're great for twins who are older or who want to keep pace with you. They are also available in various seating configurations and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They're usually easy to steer and, if you go for a model with a soft suspension, make light work of kerbs.
Tandem buggies are another popular choice as they're typically easier to turn than side-by-side. The second seat is placed behind the first, rather than on the top. The seats are typically bigger and bulkier than a side by side and you must ensure whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used for twins or a toddler and baby or three kids with the inclusion of a buggy board.
Lastly there are the'single-to-smallest double buggy' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double push chair by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They're more expensive than tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies, but they offer plenty of flexibility and a very high resale price. They're generally simple to steer, feature an enormous storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some have a built in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema chairs'.
Do you have twins?
Double buggys are the ideal method of transporting your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two kinds of double buggies: tandem buggies where one child is seated over the other, and side-by-side buggies. Both can accommodate two fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies are typically narrower in width for getting through doors. Tandems tend to be wider overall. They can also accommodate a carrycot as well as a toddler seats.
Do you have children?
Having a younger sibling can feel like a big responsibility initially, particularly when you must tend to the infant. A double buggy can help them to feel a sense of belonging if you place them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It can aid your child in settling into their new role as a 'big sister or brother'.
Side-by-side double buggies are often considered to be the best choice for twins since they allow both children to enjoy the same view, but they can be heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers various configuration options, such as the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.
We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and are keen to explore. This buggy is clever and can start off as a single pushchair but it can then be converted into a double umbrella stroller, taking the place of a second seat, a carrycot or a car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it features many thoughtful features that are sure to keep everyone happy.
Do you require a system of travel for your business?
Double buggies can be a great way to transport your children in a comfortable way. However they aren't required for every family. Depending on your lifestyle, and the age gap between your children you may be able to make do with a single stroller and certain attachments such as toddler harnesses and baby carriers that let you carry your child around on their back or in front of you.
If you decide to go with a double buggy there are three types to choose from: side-by-side or tandem, and convertible. The two seats are set side-by-side, so your children can be able to see each other. They are larger than a single stroller and may be difficult to maneuver through the kerbs. Tandem buggies are a more compact alternative, with a single seat in the front and another in the rear, but they can still be heavy and long to push.
Convertible double stroller for twins buggies are wonderful because they let you convert your stroller to a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. It is possible to keep your child in the car seat until she is ready to move into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is an excellent example of this. It's suitable for twins or a toddler or even three kids with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.
When your children get older and more able and able, you can get a double buggy to take them on bike rides or day excursions in which they prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that they may not always want to be in a buggy and could easily get tired and angry when they are on longer excursions.
So, before you make the decision to buy a double buggy from birth, take some time to take a look at the above factors and the particular circumstances of your family. A sturdy and reliable double buggy can make your life simpler, especially when you are required to navigate through busy streets or busy malls.
