Buying a Tandem double pushchair from birth Buggy

A tandem double buggy sale buggy can be a great option when you have twins or children who are very close in age. They're a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, and ideal for maneuvering tight spaces such as entrances, on public transportation and on rocky terrain.

Some can be converted to travel systems that can take two carrycots or child car seats. They are often heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

There are a variety of options for adding a second seating or converting a single stroller to a double. The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a spacious, gorgeous stroller that easily converts from a single model to double by adding the rumble seat (available separately). It is more expensive and less maneuverable due to the fact that the second seat is located in front of the first seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model but lacks storage under the seat when it's used as a Double Seat Stroller stroller.

Other alternatives include twin buggies with all-terrain wheels, and joggers with fixed wheels that can be used to carry two kids. They tend to be more expensive but they're designed for long trips over rough terrain and can have more resale value.

Independent recline of the seat

If you require a double buggy that is able to transport children of various ages, you'll want one that has recline independent for both seats. This will allow your older child to sit back and relax while the baby sleeps in the bassinet and vice versa.

Consider the size of your pushchair and consider the ease of you to navigate through doors and public transportation. If you have very narrow doors, it could be a good idea to consider a side-byside pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the benefit of having a footprint similar to a single buggy but can still use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies tend to be larger than side-by-side models, making 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 different age groups. They are more expensive than single to double buggies, but they're worth it if you plan to keep it for a number of years. They will also retain a good amount of value if sold when your children are old enough to use the buggie.

Another thing to look for is whether the seat backs are able to recline independently of one another as this will let you put your child in the ideal position to nap or observe. This is important when your child is in the back seat and wishes to nap while the more mature child prefers to sit up to observe the surrounding.

A few brands have a unique seat design which allows the back seat to fully recline into a nearly flat position which is perfect for newborns. The iCandy Orange, for example is a stadium-style seat that can be reclined into various positions. It also offers UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

Wider than twin buggies

It's not necessary to have twins to benefit from a wider double buggy. They're perfect for siblings of various age groups. They allow you to get around without having to worry about your children touching each other. They're typically a little longer too, with one seat sitting behind the other and offering a fully-flat recline for infants (or a more upright position for toddlers).

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

The iCandy Wave is another option. It can be folded in duo or mono mode with just one click. The frame's clever design can be expanded widthwise to allow for a second seat and it can be used with two carrycots or car seats which makes it an ideal option for older siblings that wish to sit together and enjoy the view. It's slightly longer than some other models, but it's light to steer and comes with soft suspension that can handle the kerbs.

There are many 3-wheeler tandems that have inline wheels that provide stability and fast steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models as well as iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They are often folded into the size of one buggy which is useful when you have trouble storing it at home or need to lug it in and out of the car when you travel on public transportation.

It's important to remember that a double-buggy with a wider width will feel heavier and bulkier than a compact double buggy single buggy So make sure it's what you need before purchasing. You'll need to take it on and off subways, trains and buses frequently, so it must be easy to use and manage. You might also have to move it on and off the car seat while taking your children to nursery or school so you'll need to know it can be easily manoeuvred in small spaces.

Suitable from birth

You'll need a pushchair for the whole family, whether you're expecting twins, or you have another child after you've had your first. Double buggies are typically slightly heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single strollers. However, they are also easier to manoeuvre through narrower doors or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies can be used with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an accessory). This lets you transport three children at once.

Tandem pushchairs place one child in the front of the other, and they're often a better choice if you have two kids who are close enough in age to be able to live well. But they're not foolproof: Siblings in side-by-side seats could kick or punch each other, and children on different heights can squabble over who should sit higher. This issue can be resolved by a tandem high-low model that raises the seat at the rear. Your child's older will not be seated on the lower part of the car, and won't have much of an eye.

The iCandy Wave is a great alternative for parents who want an easy-to-use convertible double buggy that can fit a newborn into a carrycot as well as an older child in the main seat. It features an intelligent frame that increases in size when you add a second child seat. It folds flat to make it a compact storage. The seats are cushioned and comfortable, the straps easy to fasten, and the buckles are among the most comfortable we've seen on any of our tests. You can recline both seats independently and the canopy is spacious and large with UPF 50+ protection and peekaboo windows.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it is a bit costly. However, a good tandem will last you for years and retain the highest resale value, so at the end of the day, you'll likely recoup a portion of the cost. The iCandy doesn't have the same seating options as our other top picks. It's nevertheless a good option for families who don't wish to spend much cash.
