Buying a Double Buggy 3 wheel baby strollers Wheels

This multi-functional single to double buggy offers 17 configurations for sleeping and seating kids from infant to toddler, and even a third with iCandy's 'piggy back board. It's also among the tiniest double strollers that can be used as a single pushchair.

It's an ultra-compact and lightweight stroller that folds easily with just one hand. It is also suitable for various environments and comes with a handy shopping bag.

Adaptability

There are a lot of things to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You'll want to make sure your children are safe, comfortable and content as you discover new routes and places. You should also take into consideration the cost and size, weight and durability. Selecting a brand that is well-known (within your budget obviously) will help maximise the value of resales and ease the purchase later on.

There are two types of double buggy with 3 wheels, depending on the number of children you will be carrying: side-by-side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller than front-facing designs but tend to have a larger footprint. However there are a few super-smart models on the market which manage to keep their size down such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy on the market and it can even fit into narrow doors!

Tandem buggies are usually larger. They start as a single stroller, but can be adjusted with adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby 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 is another super-smart tandem buggy with a unique 'cinema ' seating design that allows the rear seat to be raised or lowered to different positions so you can alter the way your children will sit. This allows you to select from 30 different seating options. It is perfect for parents with children in different stages of development.

The phil&teds sports is also a good alternative. This multi-award-winning buggy is the first of its kind that will safeguard your money in the future. It begins as a brilliant single and can be adapted to take two (or three!) as your family grows all within the same footprint of one buggy! The sling seat is the most important element to this. It's perfect for newborns, and provides superior stability, maneuverability, and the ability to kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

Generally speaking Double buggy 3 wheels are easier to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs that have 4 wheels. The front wheels are smaller and narrower, resulting in a lighter weight. They are easier to push and are also easier to move around kerbs.

Mountain Buggy Duet is a fantastic example. It is the tiniest tandem stroller available and has the same footprint as a single stroller. This makes it perfect for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or on public transport. It can be used from the moment of birth, since it can accommodate twins or two car seats/car carrycots.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. This is a great lightweight buggy that's perfect for urban life, but also comfortable on uneven or rough terrain. It can be used for twins, or even toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. It's lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. It's only downside is it's a little harder to maneuver on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you intend to take your buggy out for long walks or for jogs it's worth investing in one that can take on rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that can take the bumps and have a suspension system that absorbs shocks. The front wheels should be securing in order to give you more control on difficult terrain and make it easier to navigate around corners.

Double buggys that work for two children will give you the flexibility to alter the seating so that both children can be comfortable. The best models include reclining seats as well as adjustable footrests for children older than. They'll also have plenty of storage space to store your shopping, car keys, and phones.

Another thing to look for is a simple fold mechanism. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps underneath the seats that allow the buggy to be pulled apart, or a lever to open an opening that folds the frame in half in just a second or two. Some models can even be folded 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 the best flexibility for twins or siblings. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and yet has a footprint the same as a single buggy which means it'll fit through doors and on public transport. It's heavier than other models, but its smooth ride and effortless handling makes more up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible, another popular side-byside, offers a massive 30 seating options that can be adapted to meet the needs of any child. It's an excellent choice for twins, as the seats can be positioned to face the parents and can be converted into an iCandy tandem pushchair.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight option with three wheels, is suitable for everyday use. It's not nearly as expensive as some other models but its small turning radius and fixed front wheel make it more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's easy to push and can also be used as a running buggy with the addition of a separate child car for running.

Safety

phil&teds sports can accommodate 2 children in a variety of ways. From infant to toddler, with their car seat adapters or a twin kit. They can even accommodate Top 3 Wheel Strollers kids if you purchase their piggyback board separately (around PS120). Its dual front swivel wheel, superior manoeuvrability and handy foot brake make it extremely secure. Additionally, the tray that it sits on is much larger than other lightweight double buggies and the canopies have peekaboo windows for better visibility.

This multi-award winning side-byside is the slimmest full-featured true all-terrain double vehicle on the market. It has the same footprint as a single buggy, so it is able to be easily pushed through doors and taken on public transport. Its remarkable suspension can tackle tough terrain like a pro and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds down to an uncomplicated resting position within a matter of seconds or two. The adjustable handlebar has a handbrake for added security. The seats can be reversible so that you can have the children facing the front or the parents facing one another - perfect for twins and siblings.
