Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

Parents who are willing to pay a bit more can get an excellent tandem stroller that will last for many years and keep its price for resales. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is an extremely rated stroller that can be converted into a single. It also has another seat, called the RumbleSeat that adds flexibility.

It offers a comfortable seat recline, a large canopy that has UPF protection of 50+ and a peekaboo window. It also folds easily and compactly.

Budget

A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two young children. It will not cost a lot. You'll need to factor in car seats or carrycots as well as the price of the buggy, but even then there are plenty of options on the market that won't cost a fortune.

The UPPAbaby vista 2 is a great choice when you're looking to save money. It's under PS1,000, and can be used for twins, a baby and a toddler or even three kids with 'PiggyBack board' (which you can purchase separately). It's the slimmest side-by-side on the market, and comes with a footprint that's the same as a single pushchair, so it's easy to navigate doorways, shopping aisles and public transport.

The iCandy Orange is another great option and is one of our favourite budget double buggies - it has 30 seating configurations and features soft suspension that allows for easy work of the kerbs. It can also be changed from a single to a double so that it grows with your family. You can even put a third child at the back.

Style

If you are on a tight budget, you can still buy some stunning double buggies. They are often designed to look stunning and are extremely durable too. If you select a well-known brand, they will also have a good resale value.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 double stroller is one of the most affordable double strollers on the market. It is available in a variety of colors and looks stylish. The UPPA "PiggyBack Board" can be added to make a triple buggy. It can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or children in car seats. This is a great double buggy for city use because it has a slim frame that will fit through most doorways and can handle shopping aisles, buses and trains.

Another option that is popular is the iCandy Peach. This is a lightweight alternative that costs less than PS300, including the adaptors required for carseats. It can also be used an individual and comes with attractive features like an expansive, wide shopping basket, front suspension and UPF 50+ sunshades, with windows that peek out. There's also a cup holder that can be used by one parent and the seats can be positioned to face each other, or be positioned away from eachother.

Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, however they are less difficult to push. They may be wider which means they won't pass through doors that are narrow. They are better suited for older children who like to sit with their parents. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the tiniest sides-by-sides on the market.

Sites like Rebelstork provide some of the most popular double strollers that are available for sale at a reasonable price. They offer open box and overstock items, as well as brand new models so you can test before you buy. They also have a trade-in scheme so you can get discounts when you decide to upgrade.

Convenience

If you're looking to save money but still want a product that will accommodate your kids (and you're okay with having a little more bulky pushchair), the Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice. Our Lab experts love that it's light, smooth to drive and folds into a half-length in a matter of seconds. It also has ample storage for both children and adults, and UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows; reclining seats that are easy to adjust, and a smart brake lever that can be operated with one hand on the handlebar, all at a price point well below PS1000.

If you are looking for a low-cost double buggy that can accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another excellent option. Its sleek frame expands in size to accommodate two seats or a stroller seat with a bassinet that can be added. It can even accommodate up to three kids when you add on UPPAbaby's 'PiggyBack running board for children who are older (you buy it separately).

The seat and the carrycot are side-by-side positioning, meaning your children can see each other and you'll have an eye on them, so there's less chance of mischance between them. It's also the thinnest on the market. This means it can fit through the majority of doors and is able to maneuver around corners that are tight. It's a bit heavy and lengthy to push in double travel buggy mode, and does not perform as well as some of the other best double buggies in rough or uneven terrain.

This is a great mid-range option, and our top-rated double buggy. It's lightweight, has a handy shopping basket, and can fit two car seats for children, or one baby seat and a toddler seat. Its seat is comfortable and its big back wheels are able to handle a little more rough terrain than the smaller models on our list. It also folds into a compact self-standing design and comes with a handy carrying strap. It's not as spacious or high-quality as other best-value doubles, but it's still a great deal.

Safety

Verify that the double stroller meets all safety standards prior to buying it. This includes the safety straps, how the seats can be adjusted as your children get older and whether they have different recline positions to match their age. Also, look for a big storage basket with pockets and whether there are any other extras that could be useful, like sunshades, rain covers.

If you are planning to use the buggy mostly in town or on public transportation, make sure that it is light and easy to maneuver. Also, you should take into consideration the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded and whether it can be folded and placed in your car boot. If you plan to use the buggy in small villages or towns, be sure that the wheels are well-gripped and are able to navigate narrow doorways and pavements.

There are many types of double buggies, however the most well-known is the side-by-side model. They tend to be larger and more difficult to push, however they do offer the advantage of each child having a view. They can also be expensive.

Tandem buggies permit children to be placed next to each one. This can be more comfortable for older children, but it also means that the buggy is less stable than a side-by-side. It can also be difficult to maneuver them through narrow doorways and up and down kerbs.

The iCandy Peach double buggies are one of the most compact double stroller loved and fashionable models. It comes with a variety of unique features. It has a built-in ride-on board with a cinema seating option and 30 seating options - it will even hold a third child! It is also light, has good suspension and can be converted from single to double by the purchase of an additional seat.

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a great choice for those who are looking for a sleeker double buggy. It is the tiniest side-by-side available and comes with a footprint that is similar to the size of a single twin buggy from birth. It has several configurations that let both children see the world. There is also a handbrake that is convenient on an adjustable handlebar. With the addition of an adapter, it can also fit two car seats for infants.
