Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels

This versatile buggy can be used as a double or single. It comes with 17 different options to accommodate children ranging from infants 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 a compact and light stroller with an easy to use fold that can be done one-handed. It's also great over varying terrains and also has an excellent shopping basket.

Adaptability

When it comes to purchasing a double buggy, there's lots to think about. You'll want to make sure your children are safe, secure and content while you explore new routes and attractions. You'll also want to consider the total cost as well as the size, weight, and durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within the budget) will maximize resale and make purchasing easier.

There are two types of double buggies with 3 wheel compact stroller wheels, depending on the number of children you will be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. The side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller, but they have a larger footprint than the front-facing models. However there are some smart models on the market that are able to reduce their size, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy on the market and it can even fit into narrow doorways!

Tandem buggies, on contrary, are usually larger. They typically start as a single pushchair, but can then be adjusted to take an additional seat or carrycot by using adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby or a child with a newborn due to their clever seat configurations. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple by adding the optional "Piggy Back Board".

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another smart tandem buggy with unique 'cinema-seat' design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can be seated in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating arrangements and is perfect for parents who have young children who are at very different stages in development.

Another option is Phil&teds sport. This award-winning buggy is a first in the world that will safeguard your money in the future. It begins as an incredible single and can be upgraded to take two (or three!) As your family expands, you can utilize the same footprint as a single buggy. This is possible thanks to the genius sling seat that's ideal for infants and provides the best maneuverability, stability and kerb pop.

Manoeuvrability

In general, double pushchairs with 3 wheel pushchaieven keys.

Another thing to look out for is a slick fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that releases a catch and folds the frame in a matter of seconds. Some models can fold with the seat removed to make them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side which offers great flexibility for twins or siblings. Its clever frame can be expanded to accommodate the second seat or carrycot, but still maintaining the same footprint as a single stroller. This means it will fit through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models however its smooth ride compensates for the extra weight.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-byside, offers a massive 30 seating options that can be altered to meet the needs of any child. It's a great option for twins as the seats can be parent-facing, and can convert to the form of a tandem pushchair, with an extra seat/carrycot at the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3 wheel baby stroller-3 wheel twin stroller option is ideal for daily use. It's not quite as large or expensive as other models, however its fixed front wheel and small turning radius make it difficult to maneuver through kerbs. It's easy to push though and can also be used as a running buggy with the addition of a separate child carrier for jogging.

Safety

The phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways from infant to toddler with their car seat adapters or twin kit, and even handle three if you use their piggyback board (which you can purchase separately for about PS120). Its dual front swivel wheel with superior maneuverability and a convenient foot brakes make it extremely secure. Its parent tray is bigger than many double buggies with a lighter weight, and the canopies feature windows that peek out to increase visibility.

This award-winning side by side double buggy is the slimmest all-terrain model with full-featured features that is available. It has the same footprint as a single buggy, so it can be easily pushed through doors and taken on public transport. Its suspension is able to tackle rough terrain with ease and our Lab experts love the fact that it can be folded down into a compact position within a matter of seconds. The adjustable handlebar has an additional handbrake to ensure safety. The seats can be reversed to allow children facing forward or parents facing each other - perfect for siblings and twins.
