The Reasons To Work With This Tandem Double Buggy > 문의하기

Buying a Tandem Double Buggy

A tandem double buggy could be a great option for twins or children who are very close in age. They're a bit smaller than side-byside buggies and are ideal for maneuvering tight spaces such as doors, on public transport and on rough terrain.

Some are able to be converted into travel systems that take two carrycots or child car seats. They are typically heavier, longer and less stable than a single pushchair.

Convertible

There are a variety of options for adding a second seating or converting a single stroller to double. The UPPAbaby is a large, beautiful stroller. It can easily be changed from a single to double buggy to a double by adding an seating area with a rumble. However, it's pricey and less mobile than other double push chair strollers due to the fact that the second seat is placed behind the front seat. Nuna Demi Grow is a similar model, but it lacks storage underneath the seat when used as a double stroller.

Other options include twin buggies that have all-terrain wheels as well as joggers that have fixed wheels that can accommodate two kids. They are generally more expensive, but they're made to last longer on rough terrain and can have a higher resale value.

Reclining the seat independently

If you are looking for a double stroller that can accommodate children of various age groups, you'll need one with a recliner that is independent for both seats. This allows your child of a higher age to rest in the back while the baby sleeps in the bassinet, and vice versa.

You'll also have to consider the width of the stroller as it will impact how easy it is to traverse doors and public transport. If you have narrow doors, it could be worthwhile to consider a side-by-side pushchair like the Mountain Buggy Duet which has the advantage of having a footprint comparable to a single buggy but can still use two seats and car seat adaptors.

Tandem buggies are typically larger than side-by-side models, making them more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, they can accommodate more combinations of car seats, carrycots and seats and are a great option for twins and siblings of various age. They are priced higher than single to double buggies, but they're worth it if you intend to keep it for a number of years. They will also retain a good amount of value if you decide to sell it when your children are old enough to use the buggie.

This feature will allow you to place your child in the most comfortable position for naps or to observe. This is particularly important if you have a younger child in the rear seat who may be inclined to lie down and take a snooze while the older child wants to sit and observe their surroundings.

Certain brands come with a unique seat design which allows the back seat to completely recline to an almost flat position which is perfect for infants. For example, the iCandy Orange has raised stadium-style seating and can recline both the included toddler seat and the add-on RumbleSeat into various positions so your kids can have the option of deciding where to sit, and also comes with an excellent UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out.

More spacious than twin umbrella stroller buggies

There's no need to have twins to benefit from a wider double buggy. They're great for siblings of different age groups and let you move around without worrying about your children touching. They're typically a little larger, with one seat sitting behind the other, and typically with a fully-flat recline option for newborns (or an upright position for toddlers).

A popular option is the Mountain Buggy Duet, which has the slimmest side-byside design available and features an identical footprint to one buggy. It also comes with an adjustable handle, making it easier for parents of different heights to push, and a handbrake, which is useful when tackling difficult terrains. It is suitable to use from birth and can be used with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

The iCandy Wave is another option. It folds in mono or duo mode in a single click. The frame's clever design expands in width to accommodate a second chair and can be used with up to two car seats or carrycots. This makes it a great choice for older siblings that wish to be seated together. It's a bit longer than other models, but it's light to steer and has soft suspension that is able to handle kerbs.

There are a variety of 3-wheeler tandems with inline tires that provide stability and fast steering. Check out Phil and Teds inline models or iCandy Peach and Pear buggies. They are often folded into a single buggy if you have limited space at home or need to carry it from the car to the bus stop.

Be aware that a two-wheeled buggy will be heavier and bulkier than a single compact buggy. Make sure you know what you want prior to making a buy. It is likely to be used on trains, buses, and subways frequently so it must be easy to use and manage. You may need to juggle the car seat on and off while taking your child to school or the nursery.

The best twin buggy time to start is when you are born.

You'll need a stroller double for your entire family regardless of whether you're expecting twins or if you have a child after you've had your first. Double buggies are typically heavier and bulkier, as well as more expensive than single strollers. However they are also more maneuverable in narrower doors or around obstacles such as curbs. Many double buggies are compatible with piggyback boards (available from the manufacturer or as an add-on). This allows you to transport three children at the same time.

Tandem pushchairs put one child in front of the other, and they're generally a better option when you have two children that are close enough in age to function well. They're not completely safe. Siblings seated side-by-side may punch or kick one another, and children of different heights can fight over who sits taller. A tandem high-low model can solve this issue by elevating the seat at the rear, preventing your older child from being on the bottom and not getting much of a view.

The iCandy Wave is a great option for parents looking for an easy-to-use double buggy that converts to accommodate a newborn in a carrycot, and an older child in the main seat. It features a clever frame that expands in width when you add the second seat and folds down flat to make it a compact storage. The cushioned buckles, straps and seats are all of the best quality we have encountered in our tests. The seats can be reclined independently and the canopies are big and spacious with UPF 50+ protection and peekaboo windows.

The only drawback to the iCandy tandem is that it's a bit expensive. However, a quality tandem will last for many years and have an attractive resale value which means that in the end you'll likely recover some of the cost. It doesn't have the same selection of seating configurations as some of our other top picks however, the iCandy is a good option for families who don't wish to spend a lot.
