Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

This buggy is able to be used as a double or single. It comes with 17 different configurations that can accommodate children from newborns to toddlers, and even a third using the iCandy 'piggyback' board. It's also one of the slimmest side-by-sides and fits through doorways like a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds up easily by using just one hand. It is also suitable for a variety of types of terrains and comes with a handy shopping bag.

Adaptability

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when purchasing a double stroller. You'll want to ensure that your children are safe, comfortable and content as you discover new routes and sights. You'll also want to consider the overall cost as well as the size, weight, and durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within the budget) will boost resales and make the purchase process easier.

There are two kinds of double buggies that have three wheels, based on how many children you'll be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. Side-by-side buggies are slimmer than front-facing models, however, they have larger footprints. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the smartest models available. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy on the market and can fit into doorways that are narrow!

Tandem buggies, on the other hand, tend to be larger. They are designed as a single stroller but can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby, or a newborn because of their innovative seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed into a triple with the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back' board.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another stylish tandem buggy that features unique 'cinema-seat' design. This allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in various positions. This allows you to choose between 30 different seating arrangements. It is ideal for parents with children who are at different stages of development.

Another option is phil&teds sport. This first-of-its-kind, multi award winning buggy will future proof your pocket by starting as a brilliant single from the beginning and then adapting to take two (or three!) as your family grows all within the same footprint as one buggy! This is possible thanks to the innovative sling seat that's perfect for newborns and offers the best maneuverability, stability and the ability to pop the kerb.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double buggys that have 3 wheel baby stroller wheels are easier to maneuver and control than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less wide, resulting in less weight on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also easier to maneuver up and down kerbs.

An excellent example is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the thinnest side-byside buggy on the market, and has the same footprint as a single buggy. It is ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or on public transport. Additionally, the fact that it can also accommodate twins or 2 carrycots/car seats means it can be used from the beginning of time.

Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It is a lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban living and also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It is suitable for twins as well as a baby and toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its lightweight frame means it can be lifted and carried easily too. The only downside is that it's a little more difficult to maneuver than other models on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you plan to take your buggy out for long jogs or walks then you should spend more for one that is able to take on rough terrain. Consider a three-3 wheel stroller set model with big rear wheels that can take the bumps, and a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be mounted ideally to give you better control over rough terrain and make it easier to navigate around corners.

Double buggys that work for two children will allow you the flexibility to adjust the seats to ensure that both children be comfortable. The most comfortable double buggys come with adjustable seating and footrests that can be reclined for older children. You'll have plenty of space to store your items phones, keys, and even keys.

Another thing to look out for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats to pull the buggy apart or a lever that releases a catch and folds the frame into half in just a few seconds. Some models fold with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not being used.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side that offers the best lightweight 3 wheel stroller flexibility for siblings or twins. The clever frame can be expanded in width to accommodate the second seat or carrycot while still having the same footprint as a single stroller. This means that it can be used through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models but its smooth and comfortable ride makes up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-by-side, comes with 30 seating options that can be modified to meet all needs. It's a great choice for twins since the seats can be facing parents, and can convert to a tandem pushchair with a seat/carrycot in the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a lightweight 3 wheel pushchair travel system-wheel option that's suitable for daily use. It's not nearly as expensive as other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel make it more difficult to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. It's easy to push and can be used to running buggy by including a separate child carrier.

Safety

phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways. From toddler to infant, using their car seat adapters, or a twin kit. They can even take care of 3 wheel reversible stroller kids if you purchase their piggyback boards separately (around PS120). It is especially safe because of its dual front swivels, superior maneuverability, and a convenient footbrake. Additionally, the tray that it sits on is larger than on most double buggies, and the canopies feature peekaboo windows for better visibility.

This award-winning side by side double buggy is slimmer than any other, full-featured all-terrain double on the market. Its footprint is similar to a single buggy, meaning it fits easily through doorways and on public transport. Its incredible suspension handles the tough terrain like a pro and our Lab experts are enthused that it folds down to an uncomplicated resting position in a second or two. It also has a hand brake that is mounted on the adjustable handlebar to provide safety. The seats can be reversed and you can choose to have your children facing forward, or the parents facing one another - perfect for siblings and twins of different ages.
