Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

A little more money spent on a tandem stroller will ensure it lasts for many years and will retain its value. The Uppababy Vista V2 is a top-rated model that can convert into a single unit and features a second seat, the RumbleSeat, that adds versatility.

It comes with a decent seat recline, a large canopy that has UPF protection of 50+ and peekaboo window. It's also small and folds easily.

Budget

A double running buggy-buggy can be an absolute lifesaver when you have two kids in the car and shouldn't break the bank. It is also important to consider the cost of car seats or carrycots, in addition to the price of the buggy. But even then, there are many options that won't break your budget.

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

The iCandy Orange is another great alternative and one of our top budget double buggies. It has 30 seating options and comes with soft suspension that allows for easy work of the kerbs. It also converts from single-to-double to accommodate your family and take a third child in the back.

Style

If you're on a budget you can still purchase some beautiful double buggies. Many of them are designed to look stunning and are also very durable. You can also find a good resale price by choosing a reputable brand.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 double Strollers with Peek-A-boo windows stroller is one of the most affordable double strollers available on the market. It is available in a variety of colors and is stylish to take a look at. The UPPA 'PiggyBack Board' can be added to make a triple buggy. It can take twins as well as a toddler and baby or children in car seats. This is an extra-large buggy that is perfect for city use. It has a slim frame, which will fit through most doors and handle shopping aisles and trains.

Another option that is popular is the iCandy Peach. It's a light-weight option that costs less than PS300 with the adaptors required for carseats. It can also be used as a single and has some appealing features, including a large, spacious shopping basket, front suspension and UPF 50+ sunshades with windows that can be seen from a distance. There's a great cup holder that is one-parent and seats can be set to face each other or away from each other.

Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, but are easier to push. They can be wide and therefore may not be able to pass through doors with narrow openings. They are better suited for older children who prefer to sit together. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the slimmest sides-by-sides available.

Sites like Rebelstork offer the best double strollers that are available for sale at a reasonable price. They offer open boxes and overstock items, as well as new models, so you can test before you purchase. They also have a trade-in program to allow you to get cash back when you decide to upgrade.

Convenience

The Joie Evalite Duo pushchair twin is an excellent choice if you are on a budget but still want to accommodate your children (and do not mind the slightly larger size). It's easy to fold, light and smooth to drive. It has good storage for two children, a generous UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out as well as reclining seats that are easy to adjust and a clever brake lever that is located on the handlebar. All this at a price well lower than PS1000.

If you are looking for a low-cost double stroller that can also accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another excellent option. Its slick frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats or a single stroller with a bassinet that can be added. You can take up to three kids with the UPPAbaby 'PiggyBack,' the running board for older kids (which you buy separately).

Seat and carrycots are set side-by-side, so your children will be able to see each one another and you will be able to keep an eye on them. This reduces the chance of them getting confused. It's also the slimmest side-by-side on the market which means it will be able to pass through the majority of doors and can be steered easily around tight corners. However, it is heavy and long to push when in double mode and doesn't do as well on uneven or rough terrain like some of our top-quality double buggies.

This is a great mid-range option and our top-rated double stroller. It is lightweight double buggy, has an integrated shopping basket and it can accommodate two car seats for children, or one baby and a toddler. It features a comfortable and spacious seat with big wheels on the back that are able to handle rougher terrain than our more compact models. It folds down into a compact self-standing form and comes with a comfortable strap for transport. It's not as spacious or as well-made as some of the top-quality doubles, however it's a great value overall.

Safety

Verify that the double stroller meets all safety standards before purchasing it. This includes safety straps, the way that the seats adjust as your children get older and if they come with different reclining positions to suit their age. Also, look for a large storage basket with pockets and whether there are any other items that are useful, such as sunshades or rain covers.

If you intend to use the buggy mostly in towns or on public transportation, make sure it's lightweight and easy to maneuver. Also, you should consider the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded, and whether it can be folded and fitted in your car boot. If you intend to use the buggy in small villages or towns, be sure that the wheels are well-grip and that they can navigate narrow doorways and pavements.

There are many kinds of double buggies that are available and side-by-side models are the most popular. They are generally longer and more difficult to push, however they have the benefit of the children both being able to see. They can also be expensive.

Tandem buggies are an alternative and these have the children placed next to one another. It is a more comfortable option for older children, but the buggy will be less stable. It can also be difficult to fit them into narrow doors, and it can be hard work going between kerbs.

The iCandy Peach is one of the best-selling double buggies and is a stylish piece of equipment that comes with plenty of unique features. It comes with a built-in board for riding on, "cinema seating" and 30 different seating options. It can even accommodate the third child. It is lightweight, has a great suspension, and can be converted from a single to double seat by the purchase of additional seats.

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a ideal choice for those who are looking for a sleeker double buggy. It is the tiniest double buggy on the market, and its footprint is comparable to that of a single buggy. It has several configurations that allow both children to be able to explore the world. There's also a handbrake that is convenient on an adjustable handlebar. With the addition of an adapter, it can also be used to accommodate two car seats for infants.
