Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

A little extra on a tandem stroller will ensure that it lasts for years and will retain its value. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is a top-rated stroller which can be converted into a single. It also has an additional seat, the RumbleSeat that adds flexibility.

It has a decent recline seat, a big canopy that has UPF protection of 50+ and a peekaboo window. It folds easily and compactly.

Budget

A good double buggy can be a lifesaver when you have two young kids in tow, and it will not cost a fortune. You'll also have to think about the cost of car seats and carrycots, as well as the price of the buggy. But even if you do, there are many alternatives that won't break the budget.

The UPPAbaby vista 2 is a great choice if you're looking to save money. It's priced under PS1,000, and it can accommodate twins as well as a baby and toddler, or even three kids with the 'PiggyBack board' (which you can purchase separately). It's the lightest tandem on the market. The footprint is the same as the one of one pushchair, which means it is able to be easily 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 can also be converted from single to double infant strollers so that it grows with your family. It can even accommodate an additional child in the back.

Style

If you are on a budget you can still purchase some gorgeous double buggies. They are often designed to look stunning and are very durable too. If you choose a well-known brand, they'll also have a good resale value.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the best double strollers on the market. It comes in a variety of colors and is attractive to see. It can be used as an extra triple buggy by using UPPA's separate 'PiggyBack' board. It can accommodate twins, a toddler and the baby or child in a car seat for infants. This is a double buggy that is ideal for city use. It has a slim frame, which will fit through the majority of doors and handle shopping aisles and trains.

Another popular choice is the iCandy Peach. It is a light alternative that costs less than PS300, including the adaptors required for carseats. It can be used as an individual seat and comes with some nice features like an enormous, spacious basket, front suspension and UPF 50+ shades with a windows that peek out. There is a nice one-parent cup holder and seats can be placed to face each other or to separate from each other.

Side-by-side double buggies cost more but are generally more maneuverable than other types. They can be wide and therefore may not fit through narrow doors. They are better suited for older children who would rather sit together. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the slimmest sides-by-sides that are available.

You can find some of the most affordable double strollers on sale on websites like Rebelstork. They offer open box and surplus items as well as new models so you can test before you purchase. They also have a trade-in scheme to allow you to get cash back in the event that you decide to upgrade.

Convenience

If you're on a tight budget, but still want something that can accommodate your children (and you're okay with an extra-large pushchair), the Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice. It's easy to fold and is lightweight and easy to drive. It offers ample storage for two children, generous UPF 50+ canopy that has a peekaboo window and reclining seats that are easy to adjust, and an innovative brake lever on the handlebar. All this for a price below PS1000.

If you need a cheap double buggy that can accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another suitable option. Its sleek frame expands in width to accommodate 2 seats or one twin Umbrella Stroller seat with a bassinet option. You can carry up to three children using the UPPAbaby 'PiggyBack,' a running board for older kids (which you buy separately).

The seat and carrycot have side-by-side positioning, meaning your children will be able to see each other, and you can keep an eye on them, meaning there's less chance of mischance between them. It's also the tiniest available. This means it can pass through most doors and be maneuvered around corners that are tight. It's a bit heavy and lengthy to push in double mode, and it doesn't perform as well as some of the best double buggies in rough or uneven terrain.

This is our top-rated double stroller. It's an excellent choice for a price that is mid-range. It is lightweight, has an integrated basket for shopping, and it can accommodate two car seats for children or one toddler and a baby. It has a comfortable seat with big wheels on the back that are able to take on rough terrain better than our more compact models. It folds down into the compact double buggy self-standing shape and comes with a handy carry strap that allows for easy schlepping. It's not quite as spacious or as high-end as other top-quality doubles, but it's still an excellent value.

Safety

Make sure that the double buggy is safe before buying it. This includes safety straps, the way that the seats can be adjusted to accommodate your growing children and whether they have different recline positions to match their age. Find large storage baskets along with pockets and other items you may find useful, such as sunshades and rain covers.

If you are planning to use your buggy mostly in towns or on public transportation, you should make sure it's lightweight and easy to maneuver. You should also think about the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded, and if it can be folded and fitted in your car boot. If you drive the buggy often in small towns or villages check that the wheels are able to grip and can navigate narrow pavements and doors.

There are many kinds of double buggies that are available with side-byside models being the most well-known. They tend to be larger and more difficult to push, however they do offer the advantage of each child getting a view. They can also be expensive.

Tandem buggies are a different option and these have the children positioned next to each other. It can be more comfortable for older children, however the buggy will not be as stable. It is also harder to fit them through narrow doors and is difficult to maneuver up and down the kerbs.

The iCandy Peach is one of the top double buggies in sales and is a stylish bit of kit that has numerous unique features. These include a built-in ride-on board with a cinema seating option and 30 seating options - it can even accommodate a third child! It's also lightweight and has a good suspension. It can be converted from single to double with the purchase of an additional seat.

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a great choice for those who are looking for a more streamlined double stroller with bassinet buggy. It is the lightest double buggy on the market and its footprint is similar to that of a single buggy. It offers several configurations so that both children are able to see the world, and it has an attractive handbrake on the adjustable handlebar. With the addition of an adapter, it can also fit two car seats for infants.
