Buying a Double Buggy 3 wheel stroller With bassinet Wheels

This versatile single to double buggy has 17 different configurations for seating and sleeping kids, from newborn to toddler and even the third option with iCandy's "piggy back' board. It's also among the slimmest side-by sides and can be pushed through doorways just like a single pushchair.

It's a compact and light stroller with an easy to use fold that can be accomplished with one hand. It's also suitable for different 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 ensure that your children are safe, comfortable and happy as you explore new routes and sights. Also, think about the overall price tag size, weight, and durability. Choosing a well-known brand (within your budget obviously) will maximize the value of resales and ease the purchase process down the line.

There are two types of double buggies with three wheels, based on the number of children you'll be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing. Side-by-side buggies tends to be slimmer but have a bigger footprint than the front-facing models. However, there are some super-smart models on the market that manage to keep their size down, like the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy in the entire world. It even fits through narrow doors.

Tandem buggies are generally larger. They typically start as a single pushchair but can later be adjusted to accommodate an additional seat or carrycot with adapters. Some tandem buggies can take twins or a toddler and a baby or a child with a newborn due to their clever seating 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 that has an exclusive 'cinema seating' design that allows the rear seat to be adjusted to different positions so you can alter how your children will sit. This allows you to choose from a range of 30 seating arrangements and is perfect for parents who have young children who are at different stages of development.

The phil&teds sports is another good option. This first-of-its-kind, multi award winning buggy will future proof your wallet by being an excellent single from the beginning and then adjusting to take two (or three wheel buggies!) As your family grows, you can still make use of the same footprint of a single buggy. The sling seat is the key to this. It is ideal for infants and offers superior stability, maneuverability and the ability to kerb-pop.

Manoeuvrability

Generally speaking the double buggy with 3 wheel stroller and car seat wheels are more easy to handle and manoeuvre than double pushchairs with four wheels. The front wheels are smaller and less wide which results in a lighter weight. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much easier to move around kerbs.

A great example of this is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the tiniest tandem buggy available and has the same dimensions as a single stroller. It is ideal for parents who are worried about fitting in doorways or taking public transportation. It can be used from birth, since it can be used to accommodate twins or two carrycots/car seats.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another alternative. It is a light buggy that is ideal for urban life and is also comfortable on more uneven or rough terrain. It can be used by twins, a baby and a toddler because of its four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels. Its lightweight frame makes it easy to lift and carry. The only drawback is that it's a bit more difficult to manage than other models on uneven ground.

Comfort

If you're planning to take your buggy out for long walks or jogs then you should spend more for one that is able to take on rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that are able to take the bumps and a suspension system to absorb shocks. The front wheels should be fixed in order to give you more control over difficult terrain, and also to allow you to easily push through corners.

Double buggys that are good for two children will allow you to alter the seating to ensure that both children be at ease. The best lightweight 3 wheel stroller double buggys have adjustable footrests as well as reclining seats for older children. They'll also have plenty of storage space for shopping, car keys and phone.

Another thing to look out for is a simple fold mechanism. Our Lab experts like models with straps underneath the seats that pull the buggy apart or a lever that can release an opening that folds the frame in half in just a couple of seconds. Some models can 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. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat (or carrycot) and still has the same footprint 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 makes up for it.

iCandy's Orange Convertible is another popular side-by-side with 30 seating configurations to fit all needs. It's an excellent choice for twins because the seats can be oriented towards parents and convert into a tandem pushchair with an extra seat/carrycot at the middle.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a lightweight three-wheel model, is suitable for everyday use. It's not as large or expensive as other models, but its fixed front wheel and narrow turning radius make it more difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. It's easy-to-push and can be used as a running buggy by including a separate child carrier.

Safety

The phil&teds sports can be used to accommodate two children in various ways. From infant to toddler, with their car seat adapters, or twin kit. They can even handle 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth kids if you purchase their piggyback boards separately (around PS120). It is particularly safe because of its dual front swivels that are swivels at the front, maneuverability, and the convenient footbrake. Its parent tray is bigger than the majority of double buggies that are lightweight and the canopy has windows that peek out to increase visibility.

This multi-award-winning side-by-side is the slimmest full-featured true all-terrain double buggy available on the market. Its footprint is similar to a single buggy, meaning it fits easily through doorways and on public transport. Its amazing suspension can handle the tough terrain like a pro and our Lab experts love the fact that it folds down into a compact resting position in just a few seconds. It also has a hand brake on the adjustable handlebar for added security. The seats are reversible and you can choose to have the children facing forward or the parents facing one another - perfect for twins and siblings of different ages.
