What kind of buggy would you prefer?

Double buggys are ideal for transporting up to two children at the same time, even if they are not of the same age. They can be used as prams and have the ability to recline in each seat, so your children can lie down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from drinks and snacks to wipes and nappies. They are usually light that folds easily and are compact enough to fit into the car boot. If you're someone who drives a lot, it's worth checking that the buggy is easy to manoeuvre using the folded wheels, as well as to get it out and into your car boot.

You might have seen this kind of double buggy on other mothers strollers or even in one as a kid. They are ideal for older siblings who want to keep up with you or for twins. They usually have numerous seating options (including "cinema" seats) for your little ones to choose from. They're usually pretty easy to steer and, if you opt for Www.Pushchairsandprams.Uk a model with a soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are simpler to turn than side-by-sides, are also very popular. This is due to the fact that the second seat is placed behind the first instead of over it. The seats are generally wider and bulkier than a traditional side by side, so you should check whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a baby and toddler or three children with the inclusion of a buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single to double pushchair-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.

Do you have twins?

Whether your children are twins or siblings of different age groups, a double buggy is the most efficient way to move them around. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies which have one child sitting over the other, and side by side buggies. Both buggies can be fitted with two fixed seats. However side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower to fit through doors. Tandems are generally wider overall. They can also be able to accommodate an infant seat and a carrycot.

Do you have a child?

At first having a younger sibling could seem like an overwhelming amount of responsibility, especially if you are also taking care of the baby. They might be a bit irritated if they are placed in a baby carrier as you push the older sibling to the side and having a double buggy from birth can make everything simpler. It can also help your child settle into their new role as a 'big sister or brother'.

The side-by-side double buggies can be a great option for twins, since both children will share the same view. However, they are bulky and heavy.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to active families who love to explore. This buggy is clever and can start with an individual pushchair, but is then convertible into a double, taking a second seat or carrycot, or car seat (depending on the model).

Do you require a travel system?

Double buggies can be a great way to transport your children in a comfortable way. However they aren't necessary for every family. Depending on your lifestyle and the age gap between your kids, you may be able to get by with a single stroller and certain attachments such as baby carriers and toddler harnesses which allow you to transport your child on their backs or in front of you.

If you do opt for a double buggy, there are three types to choose from: side by side as well as convertible. The two seats are positioned parallel to each other, so your children will be able to see one another. They are larger than a single stroller, and can be difficult to navigate around kerbs. Tandem buggies are small with a seat in the front and another at the back. However they can be quite heavy and lengthy to push.

Convertible double buggies permit you to transform a single stroller into double buggy by attaching the bassinet or infant car seat to the frame. You can leave your baby in the car seat until is ready to step up into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a great illustration of this. It's suitable for twins or a toddler and baby or even three kids with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

When your children get older and more mobile and able, you can get a double buggy to accompany them on cycling trips or other day trips in which they prefer walking. But, it's important to remember that they may not want to be in a buggy and can easily get tired and angry during longer trips.

So, before you make the decision to buy a double buggy at the time of birth make sure you take a look at the above factors and your family's specific circumstances. A durable and reliable double buggy can make your life easier, especially when you need to navigate through busy streets or busy malls.
