They can also serve as prams and have the ability to recline within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lie down in various positions. Many of them also have plenty of storage space for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight, easy to fold and small enough to fit into your car boot.

They typically come with many seating configurations (including “cinema” seats) for your toddlers to pick from. These are usually easy to navigate, and if you choose a model with a soft suspension, they are able to effortlessly handle kerbs. Tandem buggies are also a popular choice as they're typically easier to turn than side-by-side. The second seat is located behind the first rather than on top. The seats are typically larger and heavier than a side by side and you must ensure whether they are able to pass through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and a baby or three children with the addition of an extra buggy board. Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They're generally more expensive than side-by-sides or tandem buggies, but they offer a lot of flexibility and have a great price for resales. They're generally easy to steer, have an enormous storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some come with a built-in ride-on board for older children and 'cinema seats'. Do you have twins? If your children are twins or siblings with different age groups, a double buggy is the best way to move them around. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies where one child is seated over the other, and side-byside buggies. Both can accommodate two fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower in width for getting through doors. Tandems are typically larger overall. They can also accommodate a carrycot and toddler seats. Do you have one? Having a younger sibling can feel like an enormous responsibility at first, especially when you must tend to the baby. A double buggy may allow children to feel included when you put them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It can also help your child settle into their new role of a 'big brother or sister'. The side-by-side double buggies can be a good option for twins, as each child will get the same view. However they're heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers different configuration options, including the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet. If you prefer, we suggest alternatively, we recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families who love to explore. double tandem pushchair is a single pushchair which can be made a double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it comes with many thoughtful features that are sure to keep everyone happy. Do you require an effective travel system for your business? Double buggies are a great way to transport your children safely. However they aren't required for every family. You might be able to use a single stroller, with a few attachments, such as baby carriers and toddler straps that allow your child and you to ride on their backs or in the front. There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side and convertible. The two seats are positioned in a row, so that your children can see each other. However, they tend to be wider than a single pushchair, and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. Tandem buggies offer an easier way to travel with a seat in the front and one in the rear, however they can be still quite long and heavy to push. Convertible double buggies permit you to convert one stroller into a double buggy by attaching the bassinet or infant car seat to the frame. This will allow you to keep your newborn snuggled up comfortably in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a fantastic example of this – it's suitable for twins, a baby and toddler or even three kids with the the optional PiggyBack board. When tandem double stroller get older and more mobile and able, you can get a double buggy to accompany them to bike rides or day excursions in which they prefer to walk. However, it's worth remembering that they might not always want to be in a buggy and can easily be tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions. Before you make the decision to buy a double stroller from the beginning make sure you consider the above factors and your family's specific circumstances. A durable and reliable double buggy can make your life easier, particularly when you have to navigate through busy streets or crowded malls.
