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

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

There are many things to take into consideration when selecting a double buggy. First, ensure that it can fit through your doorway and into your car boot when folded.

Lightweight

The prospect of bringing a second child home is an exciting possibility, but there are also lots of practical aspects to consider. The addition of another child to the family will require changing the layout of living spaces, thinking about car seats and, of course, investing in a brand new double buggy.

There are many great options to choose from, whether you're looking for twins or simply need something a bit smaller. Our lab experts recommend the iCandy Peach because it comes with a number of accessories that competitors will cost additional fees for. It folds very neatly to take up less space in your boot. It's simple to maneuver and moves well, as per testers. It can feel a bit long when it is in double mode.

The side-by-side buggies are great to keep children in a single space but they are a bit wider than the single stroller. This makes it difficult to navigate up and down kerbs. Mountain Buggy Duet Luxury, with its 63cm width, is the tiniest available. It's easy to pass through doors and into public transport. It's compatible with all kinds of car seats and can grow with your family - it can be used as a mono and tandem buggy when your children are ready to sit side-by-side.

The height-adjustable handle is great for steering and the suspension can take care of slick surfaces. It's a great choice for older kids, since it has a seat elevated to give them a better view of the action. It's not as light as other models in this list but it's still a nippy option.

You'll be pushing your double buggy a lot so it's important to choose one that is at ease to push. Find a handle that's padded and well-shaped to suit your height, and a large basket with lots of pockets and compartments. It's also worth checking how easy it is to fold and put away your buggy when not using it.

Easy to maneuver

There are some amazing new double running buggy buggies available that allow you to travel with two kids much more enjoyable. The iCandy Orange, for example is a multi-purpose model that can fit twins or one baby and a toddler with both carrycots/seats facing forwards or backwards. It can also accommodate a third child using a piggyback' board (sold separately). Its sleek, light frame with swivel wheels and suspension make it easy to move around town and on rough terrain.

The Joie Evalite Duo is another side-byside model that's extremely lightweight and has a tiny footprint. They can be easily stored with the seats attached. They do require more effort to push them over kerbs, and can be tricky on uneven surfaces. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be used in tandem mode using both seats/carrycots and can be used to push one buggy. Its clever frame expands in width.

If you are planning to use public transport frequently, you may want to consider a double-buggy that has large wheels. These are better for rough or uneven surfaces. Consider the ease to fold and unfold, and also the length of the buggy once folded to determine if it can fit in your boot. If you reside in a tiny town or village with narrow pavements, opt for a double buggy that has the child sits behind the other instead of next to them, as this will make it easier to navigate tight spaces.

Storage is readily available

A double buggy isn't a necessity for every family, but it can make outings easier for those with toddlers or newborns. Take a look at the side-by-side buggies if you're looking for an easy-to-steer, lightweight model. These have a large basket underneath and a rear and side pockets that can be used to store your baby's essentials. There are many models that feature adjustable handles to suit parents of different heights and fold down neatly into a compact shape suitable to be used in small spaces or for tucking away in the boot.

If you want a more robust double buggy, try one of the all-terrain options.

Some models can be transformed into joggers, making them perfect for running or exercising.

A majority of the top double buggies can be used with various combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats. This makes them a great option for families with twins or siblings that are close in age, but it's worth checking the specs of any model you're thinking about to ensure it's suitable for your needs.

There are two kinds of double buggy which are tandem and twin pushchair from birth. In tandem the seats are placed behind the other. A twin buggy has one main advantage that children can be together instead of fighting over who sits in the front. However, twins tend to be larger and can be difficult to navigate through supermarket entrances and aisles.

Tandem buggies tend to be a bit shorter however they're still more than single models. They're also less stable when going up kerbs and may need dismantling in order to fit into your car boot. The majority of double buggies come with an recline for the seat independently, which is now an option that is standard. Make sure your chosen model can be adjusted by each child's seat to the position they're most comfortable in.

Comfort

Double buggys that are comfortable for parents and children are the most comfortable. Look out for padding on the straps, the amount of recline each seat is able to do and whether the seats are independently adjustable so that you can adjust to your child's needs as they develop. Be sure to check the weight limits and whether both have a sun canopy as well as a hood to protect them from wind and rain.

If you're looking for a flexible alternative to a double pushchair, you should consider a baby carriage. They're great for toddlers who wish to walk, but still require a ride. They are also great for infants and newborns. Some carriers can be used with a car seat for even more flexibility.
