Buying a Double Buggy 3 Wheels
The versatile buggy can be used as a single or double. It has 17 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 can be pushed through doorways like a single pushchair.
It's a compact and light stroller that folds effortlessly by using just one hand. It's also ideal for a variety of terrain and has a handy shopping basket.
Adaptability
There are a variety of factors to think about when purchasing a double stroller. You'll want to ensure your children are safe and safe while you explore new sights and routes. You'll also want to think about the overall cost size, weight, and durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within budget) will maximize resale and make purchasing easier.
There are two kinds of double buggy with three wheels, based 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 however they tend to have a larger footprint. However there are some smart models available that are able to reduce their size such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy on the market. It even fits through narrow doorways.
Tandem buggies on the other hand, are often larger. They start as a single stroller and can be adjusted using adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can take twins, a baby and toddler or a child with a newborn due to their clever seating configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed to a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back" board.
The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is another stylish tandem buggy that features the unique 'cinema seat' design. It allows you to adjust the rear seat so that your children can sit in different positions. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating options and is perfect for parents with young children at very different stages in development.
The phil&teds sports is also a good option. This world-first, multi-award winning buggy will future proof your budget by acting as a brilliant single from day one and then adjusting to take two (or three!) As your family grows, you can still use the same footprint of a single buggy. The sling seat is the key to this. It is ideal for infants and provides greater stability, maneuverability, and kerb-pop.
Manoeuvrability
In general, double pushchairs with 3 wheels are easier for you to maneuver and control than double pushchairs with 4 wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, making them less wide and which means less weight is placed on them. This means they can be pushed more easily and will also be much simpler to maneuver up and down kerbs.
Mountain Buggy Duet is a excellent model. It is the tiniest side-by-side buggy on the market, and has the same footprint as one single buggy. This makes it perfect for parents worried about fitting in doorways or even on public transport. Plus, the fact that it can also accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats allows it to be used from the beginning of time.
UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. It is a lightweight buggy that is perfect for urban living and also a great choice for more uneven or rough terrain. It is suitable for twins or toddlers and babies due to its large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension. Its light frame ensures it can be lifted and moved easily. The only issue is that it's a little harder to maneuver on uneven terrain than other models.
Comfort
If you plan to utilize your buggy for long jogs or walks, then you should spend more on one that can handle rough terrain. Look out for a 3-wheel model with large rear wheels to take the bumps, as well as a suspension system that absorbs shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be fixed to give you more control on difficult terrain, and enable you to maneuver around corners.
A good double buggy will allow you to adjust the seating positions to ensure both children feel comfortable. The most effective double buggys have adjustable footrests and reclining seats for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space to store your shopping, car keys and phones.
A simple fold mechanism is another feature to keep an eye out for. Our Lab experts recommend models with straps under the seats to pull the buggy apart or a lever that releases an opening and folds the frame in a matter of minutes. Some models can be folded with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not in use.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is an award-winning side-by-side which offers an incredible range of options for twins or siblings. 3 wheel pushchair expands widthways to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and has a footprint the same as a single buggy, that means it can fit through doors and public transport. It's heavier than other models however its smooth ride compensates for the extra weight.
iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side with 30 seating configurations to suit all needs. It's a great option for twins as the seats can be oriented towards parents and can be converted into a tandem pushchair with a carrycot/seat in the middle.
The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight 3-wheel option is ideal for daily use. It's not as large or more expensive than other models, but its narrow turning radius and fixed front wheel mean it's difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's easy-to-push and can be used for running buggy by adding a separate child carrier.
Safety
phil&teds sport can take 2 children in a variety of ways from toddler to infant with their car seat adapters or twin kit, and even handle three if you use their piggyback board (which is available separately for about PS120). The dual front swivel wheels with superior maneuverability and a handy foot brake make it extremely secure. The tray that it is on is larger than many double buggies with a lighter weight and the canopy has peekaboo windows to improve visibility.
This award-winning side-by-side double buggy is slimmer than any other, full-featured all-terrain double that is available. It has the same dimensions as a single-buggy, which means it is easy to push through doors and taken on public transport. Its suspension can take on rough terrain easily and our Lab experts are thrilled that it folds into a compact form within a matter of seconds. The adjustable handlebar features an additional handbrake to ensure safety. The seats can be reversible so that you can put the children facing the front or the parents facing one another ideal for siblings and twins.
