Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

A little extra on a tandem stroller will ensure that it lasts for years and retains its value. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is an extremely rated stroller that can be converted into one. It also has another seat, called the RumbleSeat that allows for more flexibility.

It has a decent recline seat and a decent-sized canopy that comes with UPF 50+ protection as well as windows that peek out. It's also compact and folds up easily.

Budget

A double-buggy can be an absolute lifesaver when you have two children in tow and will not cost a fortune. You'll need to factor in car seats or carrycots as well as the price of the twin buggy from birth, but even then there are plenty of options on the market that won't break the bank.

A great option if you are looking to cut costs is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which is an incredible value at less than PS1,000 and can be used with twins with one baby and one toddler or three children (with the 'PiggyBack' board that you can purchase separately). It's the lightest tandem available. The footprint is similar to the one of a single pushchair, so it is able to be easily moved through doors and shopping aisles.

The iCandy Orange double buggies are another option. It comes with 30 different seating configurations, and soft suspension to make kerbs easy. It can also be converted from single to double so it'll grow with your family and can even take a third child in the back.

Style

If you are on a budget you can still purchase some stunning double buggies. Many of them are designed to look stunning and are also very durable. You can also find a good resale price when you select a well-known brand.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the most affordable double strollers available. It comes in a range of colors and looks really elegant. The UPPA "PiggyBack Board" could be added to make a triple buggy. It can hold twins, a toddler and a baby or a child in an infant car seat. This is an ideal double umbrella stroller buggy for city use because it has a narrow frame that can be pushed through the majority of doors. It can also handle shopping aisles, buses and trains.

The iCandy Peach is another popular alternative. It's a fantastic light option and costs less than PS300 including the adaptors required to fit carseats. It can also be used as one-person and has nice features such as a large, spacious shopping basket, front suspension and UPF 50+ sunshades that have peekaboo windows. There's a great cup holder with a single parent and seats can be set to face one another or to be a distance away from one another.

Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, but are easier to push. They can be quite big however, so they may not fit through narrow doors, and are generally more suitable for older children who want to be seated facing each other. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the slimmest sides-by-sides available.

You can find a selection of the best cheap double strollers on websites like Rebelstork. They offer open box and overstock items as well as new models so you can test before you purchase. They offer a trade-in scheme that allows you to earn money off road double buggy your purchase if you decide that you want to upgrade.

Convenience

The Joie Evalite Duo pushchair is an excellent choice if you are on a budget but still want to accommodate your children (and don't mind the slightly larger size). Our Lab experts like it because it's lightweight, easy to drive and folds in half in a few seconds. It offers ample storage for two kids, a large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out 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 are looking for a low-cost double buggy that can accommodate infant car seats, the iCandy Orange Wave is another good choice. Its sleek frame can be expanded in width to accommodate 2 seats or a stroller seat with a bassinet option. It can also accommodate up to three kids when you add UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack' running board for children who are older (you purchase it separately).

Seat and carrycot are positioned on opposite sides, which means your children can see each one another and you will be able to keep an eye on them. This minimizes the risk of them being confused. It's also the slimmest side-by-side available, so it should fit through most doorways and can be steered easily around tight corners. However, it is long and heavy to push when in double mode. It also doesn't do as well on uneven or rough terrain as some of our other best-value double buggies.

This is our top-rated double stroller. It's an excellent choice for a mid-range price. It is lightweight, has an integrated shopping basket, and it can be used with two car seats for children or one toddler and one baby. It features a comfortable and spacious seat with big wheels on the back that are able to take on rough terrain better than some of our more compact models. It folds down into a compact self-standing form and comes with a convenient strap for carrying. It's not as big or as high-end as other top-quality doubles but it's still a great deal.

Safety

When buying a double buggy you should check that it meets all the important safety standards. This includes safety straps, the way that the seats can be adjusted to accommodate your growing children and if they are equipped 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, like sunshades, rain covers.

If you plan to use the buggy mostly in the city or on public transport, make sure it is lightweight and easy to move. You should also take into consideration the weight of the buggy once it's fully loaded, and if it can be folded and fitted in your car boot. If you intend to use the buggy in smaller villages or towns, be sure that the wheels are well-gripped and are able to navigate through narrow streets and doors.

There are a variety of double buggies, however the most well-known is the side-by-side model. They are longer and harder to push but offer the benefit of both kids being in a position to see. They can also be quite pricey.

Tandem buggies are an alternative and they have the children positioned 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 can be a challenge to maneuver them through narrow doors, and up and down kerbs.

The iCandy Peach second hand double buggy buggies are one of the most popular and stylish models. It has many unique features. It has a built-in board for riding on, "cinema seating" and 30 different seating options. It can even fit an additional child. It is light and has a good suspension and can be transformed from a single to a double seat with the purchase of supplementary seats.

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a ideal choice for those seeking a more sleek, double buggy. It is the tiniest side-by-side available and has a footprint that is similar to a single buggy. It has several configurations that let both children see the world. There is also a handy handbrake that can be adjusted by a handlebar. It can also be used with two infant car seats by means of an adapter.
