Buying a Double Buggy 3 wheel stroller and car seat Wheels

This multi-functional single to double buggy offers 17 configurations for sleeping and seating kids from infant to toddler, and even the third option with iCandy's "piggy back' board. It's also among the tiniest double strollers that can be used as 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 ideal for a variety of terrain and has a handy shopping basket.

Adaptability

When it comes to purchasing a double buggy, there's a lot to think about. You'll want to ensure your children are safe, comfortable and content as you discover new routes and attractions. It is important to consider the cost as well as the size, weight and the durability. Selecting a brand that is well-known (within your budget of course) will increase the value of resales and ease the buying process later on.

Based on the number of children you have to carry, there are two main types of double buggy 3 wheel running buggy wheels: front-facing and side by side. Side-by-side buggies are slimmer than front-facing ones, but tend to have larger footprints. However there are a few super-smart models available that manage to reduce their size like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy available and it even fits into doorways that are narrow!

Tandem buggies are usually larger. They are designed as a single stroller, but can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat, or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can be used to accommodate twins or a toddler and baby or a child with a newborn due to their clever seating configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be converted into a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back" board.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another smart tandem buggy with the 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 configurations and is ideal for parents with young children at different stages of development.

The phil&teds sports is a good alternative. This world-first, multi award winning buggy will future proof your pocket by starting as a brilliant single from day dot and then adjusting to take 2 (or three!) As your family expands, you'll be able to use the same footprint of one buggy. The Sling seat is the key to this. It is ideal for infants and offers superior stability, manoeuvrability and kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

Generally speaking the double buggy with 3 wheel baby buggy wheels are much easier to maneuver and handle than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, making them less broad and result in less weight being placed on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much more easy to move up and down kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a great illustration. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy on the market and has the same footprint as one single buggy. This makes it ideal for parents worried about fitting through doors or in public transport. It can be used from the moment of birth, since it can accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

Another alternative is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a great lightweight buggy that's perfect for city life, yet also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It can be used by twins, a baby and a toddler due to its four-wheel suspension as well as the large rear wheels. It's lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a little harder to handle on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you intend to use your buggy on long walks or for jogging it's a good idea to invest in a model that can handle rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that can withstand the bumps and have a suspension system to absorb shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be fixed to give you more control on tricky terrain and allow you to easily push around corners.

Double buggys that are suitable for two children will allow you to adjust the seats so that both children will be comfortable. The most effective double buggys have adjustable footrests and reclining seats for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for your shopping, car keys, and phones.

A smooth fold mechanism is another feature to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps beneath the seats to pull the buggy apart or a lever that opens an opening and folds the frame in half in a matter of seconds. Some models can even fold with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-byside that provides an incredible range of options for siblings or twins. Its innovative frame can be expanded in width to accommodate the second seat or carrycot yet still has the same footprint as a single stroller. This means it will fit through doors and on public transportation. It's heavier than other models but its smooth and comfortable ride compensates for the extra weight.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side with 30 seating options to meet all needs. It's a great option for twins as the seats can be positioned to face the parents and transform into an iCandy tandem 3 wheeler pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight lightest 3 wheel stroller-wheel option is ideal for everyday use. It's not as large or costly as other models, but its fixed front wheel and narrow turning radius make it difficult to move up and down kerbs. It's simple to push and can be used for running buggy by adding a separate child carrier.

Safety

The phil&teds sports can be used to accommodate two children in multiple ways. From infant to toddler, with their car seat adapters, or a twin kit. They can even take care of three kids if you buy their piggyback board on their own (around PS120). Its dual front swivel wheel with superior maneuverability and a handy foot brake make it especially secure. In addition, its tray is bigger than most lightweight double buggies and the canopy has windows that peek out to improve visibility.

This award-winning side-by-side double buggy is the slimmest all-terrain model with full-featured features on the market. It has the same footprint as a single-buggy, which means it can be easily pushed through doors and taken on public transport. Its suspension is able to take on rough terrain easily and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds into a compact form within a matter of seconds. It also comes with a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats can be reversible, so you can choose to have your children facing forward, or the parents facing each other. This is great for siblings and twins of different ages.
