Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

A little extra on a tandem stroller will ensure that it lasts for many years and will retain its value. The Uppababy Vista V2 is a top-rated model that is able to convert into a single double stroller unit and features an additional seat, the RumbleSeat, that adds versatility.

It has a decent recline seat, a big canopy that has UPF protection of 50+ and a peekaboo view. It's also small and folds easily.

Budget

A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two young children. It will not cost a lot. It is important to consider car seats or carrycots in addition to the price of the buggy, but even then there are plenty of options available that won't cost a fortune.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is a great option if you're trying to save money. It's priced at less than PS1,000 and it can accommodate twins as well as a baby and toddler, or even three kids with the 'PiggyBack board' (which is purchased separately). It's the lightest tandem on the market. The footprint is identical to that of one pushchair, which means it can easily be moved through doors and shopping aisles.

The iCandy Orange is another great option and is one of our top budget double buggies. It has 30 seating options and soft suspension that can take care of kerbs. It is also able to be converted from single to double, so that it can grow with your family. You can even put another child in the back.

Style

If you are on a tight budget, you can still buy some beautiful double buggies. They are often designed to look great and are very durable too. You can also enjoy the best price for resales if you choose a popular brand.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the best budget double strollers available. It is available in a variety of colours and is really attractive to take a look at. The UPPA "PiggyBack Board" can be added to create a triple buggy. It can be used with twins or a toddler and a baby or a child in a car seat. This is a great double buggy for city use because it has a slim frame that will fit through the majority of doors and be used for shopping buses, trains and even busses.

Another popular choice is the iCandy Peach. It is a light option that is priced at less than PS300 including the adaptors required to fit carseats. It can also be used as an individual and comes with attractive features like an expansive, wide shopping basket front suspension, and UPF 50+ sunshades, with peekaboo windows. There's also a cup holder for one parent and the seats can face each other, or be positioned away from one another.

Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, but are much easier to push. They may be wider which means they won't fit through narrow doors. They are better suited for older children who prefer to sit together. The Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the slimmest side-by-sides available on the market.

Convenience

If you're on a budget but still want a model that can accommodate your kids (and you're not afraid of having a little more bulky pushchair twin) then the Joie Evalite Duo is a great option. Our Lab experts like it because it's light, smooth to drive and folds into a half-length in a matter of seconds. It also offers good storage for both children and adults, and UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; reclining seats that are easy to adjust, and a smart one-handed brake lever on the handlebar, all at a price point well below PS1000.

If you are looking for a low-cost double buggy that can fit infant car seats, the iCandy Orange Wave is another excellent option. Its slick frame can be expanded to accept 2 seats or a single stroller seat with an optional bassinet. It can even go up to three kids if you add on UPPAbaby's 'PiggyBack running board for children who are older (you purchase it separately).

The seat and carrycot feature side-by-side positioning, meaning your children can see each other and you'll be able to keep an eye on them, meaning there's less chance of mischance between them. It is also the slimmest on the market. This means it can pass through most doors and is able to maneuver around tight corners. However, it does feel long and heavy to push when it's in double mode, and does not perform as well on uneven or rough terrain as some of our other best-value double buggies.

This is our top-rated double pushchair stroller. It's a great option for a mid-range price. It's light, has an integrated shopping basket, and can fit two car seats for children or one toddler and one baby. The seat is comfortable and its large back wheels are able to handle a little more rough terrain than the smaller models on our list. Plus, it folds into the compact self-standing shape and has a convenient carry strap for easy schlepping. It's not as spacious or high-quality as other best-value doubles but it's still a great deal.

Safety

When buying a double buggy you must ensure that it meets all important safety standards. This includes the safety straps, how the seats can be adjusted to accommodate your growing children and if they come with different reclining positions to suit their age. Find an ample storage basket along with pockets and other items you might find useful like sunshades and rain covers.

If you intend to use the buggy mostly in the city or on public transportation, make sure it's lightweight and easy to move. Also, you should think about the weight of the buggy once it's fully loaded, and if it can be folded up and placed in your car boot. If you are using the buggy often in villages or small towns, make sure the wheels are able to grip and can navigate narrow streets and doors.

There are a variety of double buggies, however the most popular is the side-byside model. They are generally longer and more difficult to push, however they do offer the advantage of each child being able to see. These can be quite expensive.

tandem double buggy buggies permit children to be placed next to each other. This can be more comfortable for older children, however it does mean that the buggy is less stable than a side by side. It is also difficult to get them through narrow doors and up and down the kerbs.

This includes a built-in riding board as well as 'cinema seating'. 30 seating options - it will even hold three children! It is also lightweight and has good suspension. It can be converted from a single seat to a double one with the purchase of an additional seat.
