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

A double buggy is a must-have for families with two kids. It will enable you to navigate urban pathways and off road trails with ease while keeping your kids safe and happy.

There are a variety of factors to consider when choosing a double buggy. Be sure that it will fit through your car boot and through your doorway when folded.

Lightweight

The prospect of bringing a second child home is an exciting prospect but there are also lots of practical aspects to consider. The addition of another child to the family means changing the layout of living spaces, thinking about car seats, and of course, buying the latest double buggy.

There are a variety of options available regardless of whether you're looking for twins or need something a bit smaller. Our lab experts recommend the iCandy Peach because it comes with a range of accessories that other brands will charge additional fees for. It also folds in a neat way to make it easier to store in your boot. It rolls smoothly and is a breeze to maneuver. It can feel a bit long when used in double mode.

The side-by-side buggies are great for keeping kids together but they are slightly larger 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, and at just 63cm wide it's the same width as a single pushchair. It is easy to pass through doors and into public transportation. It's compatible with many 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 suspension is great for rough surfaces, and its height-adjustable handle makes steering easy. It's ideal for older children, as the seat is elevated in stadium style. This allows them to have a better view of the action. It's not as lightweight as other models in this list but it's still a good choice.

It's crucial to select a double buggy that is easy to push. Look for a handle that's well-padded and shaped to match your height, and a large basket with lots of pockets and compartments. It's also worth looking into how it's simple to fold and store your buggy when you're not using it.

Easy to Manoeuvre


There are some fantastic new double buggies out there that make going out and about with two kids much more enjoyable. For example the iCandy Orange is an all-in-one option that can be used to carry twins (or one toddler and a baby) with both car seats facing forward or backward and even a third one with a 'piggyback board' (sold separately). Its sleek, light frame, swivel wheels, and suspension allow it to be easily moved around town and on rougher terrain.

Other models with side-by-sides, like the Joie Evalite Duo are also extremely light and have a small footprint, making them easy to slide through doors and on public transport and often you can put them away with the seats still attached. However, they do require some muscle to get over kerbs, and can be trickier on uneven surfaces. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another ideal option since it can accommodate both carrycots and seats in tandem, but can also be used as a single stroller thanks to its unique frame that can be expanded widthways, and an adjustable height handle, making it easy to steer with only one hand.

If you plan on using public transport frequently you might want to consider a double buggy that has large wheels. These are better suited to rough or uneven surfaces. Also, consider the ease with which you can fold and unfold the buggy, as well as how wide it is when folded to determine if your boot will be able to accommodate it. If lightweight double buggy reside in a tiny village or town with narrow roads, you should consider a tandem double buggy in which the child sits behind the other instead of sitting in front of them, as this makes it easier to navigate tight spaces.

There are two primary types of double buggy - twin which is where your children are side-by-side, and tandem, where one seat is placed in front of the other. The primary benefit of a twin buggy is that your children will be able to interact without having to rotate or fight over who has the top spot. However, twin buggy tend to be larger and may be difficult to navigate through supermarket entrances and aisles.

Comfort

Some carriers can also be used in conjunction with a car seat for children to give you even more flexibility.

Many parents find a side-by-side double buggy the most comfortable to use, but there are some truly innovative models out there like the Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury in herringbone which is extremely thin and is the lightest side-by-side double buggy available (it's the same width as a single stroller).

The Wave tandem buggies made by Mamas & Papas are another good option. They provide more configuration options than other tandem buggies. It's designed as a mono pushchair and then you can add an additional seat or carrycot (and sometimes a third one) to the frame with adaptors, giving you an array of seating arrangements.

You just pull up on the two straps (one under each seat) and you can collapse the whole thing in seconds.
