Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

Parents who are willing to spend a little more can buy an excellent tandem stroller that will last for years and will retain its resale value. The Uppababy Vista V2 is a top-rated model that can convert to a single and has another seat, the RumbleSeat which adds 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 also folds easily and compactly.

Budget

A double pram stroller buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two kids. It isn't expensive. You'll have to take into account car seats or carrycots in addition to the cost of the buggy however, there are plenty of alternatives available that won't cost a fortune.

A great option for those who want to keep costs low is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - it's an incredible value at less than PS1,000 and can be used with twins with one baby and one toddler or three kids (with a 'PiggyBack' board that you purchase separately). It's the most compact side-by-side available on the market, and comes with the same footprint as a single pushchair, so it's easy to maneuver through doors, shopping aisles, and public transport.

The iCandy Orange double buggies are another great option. It has 30 different seating configurations and soft suspension to make kerbs easy. It can also be converted from single to Double buggy newborn so it'll grow with your family and add a third child to the back.

Style

There are still lovely double buggies on budget. Many of them are designed to look great and are also very durable. You can also enjoy an excellent resale price if you choose a popular brand.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the best double strollers on the market. It is available in a variety of colors and is elegant. It can be used as an extra triple buggy by using the UPPA's 'PiggyBack' board. It can accommodate twins or a toddler as well as the baby or child in a car seat for infants. This is a great double buggy for urban use since it has a small frame that can be pushed through most doorways and can handle shopping aisles as well as trains, buses and other vehicles.

The iCandy Peach is another popular alternative. It's a light-weight option that costs less than PS300 and includes the adaptors required for carseats. It can also be used an individual and comes with attractive features like 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 the seats can be positioned to face each other or to be a distance away from one another.

Double buggies that are side-by-side cost more but are often easier to push than other kinds. They can be wide which means they won't be able to pass through doors with narrow openings. They are best 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.

You can find a selection of the most affordable double strollers on sale on websites like Rebelstork. They offer open box and overstock items, as well as new models, so you can test before you buy. They also have a trade-in scheme so you can get money off if you decide to upgrade.

Convenience

If you're on a budget and still want something that can accommodate your children (and you don't mind a slightly bulkier pushchair) The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice. Our Lab experts love that it's light and easy to drive and folds in just a few seconds. It also offers good storage for both children, plus generous UPF 50+ canopies that have peekaboo windows, reclining seats that are easy to adjust, as well as a clever one-handed brake lever on the handlebar, all at a price point well below PS1000.

If you need a cheap double stroller that can also accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another excellent option. Its slick frame can be expanded to accommodate two seats or a single stroller seat with a bassinet option. It can even go up to three kids if you add UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack running board for children who are older (you buy it separately).

Seat and carrycot are positioned side-by-side, so your children will be able to see each other and you will be able to keep an eye on them. This reduces the chance of them becoming confused. It's also the tiniest on the market. This means it will fit through the majority of doors and be maneuvered around tight corners. However, it does feel heavy and long to push when in double mode and isn't as effective on uneven or rough terrain as our other best-value double buggies.

This is a great mid-range option, and our top-rated double stroller. It's light, has an integrated shopping basket and it can be used with two child car seats, or one baby and a toddler. It comes with a comfortable seat and large wheels on the back that can be more robust than some of our more compact models. It folds down into a compact self-standing design and comes with a comfortable carrying strap. It's not as big or as high-quality as other best-value doubles, but it's an excellent value overall.

Safety

Verify that the second hand double buggy stroller meets all safety standards before buying it. The safety straps as well as the way in which the seats adjust to the growth of your child are important. Also, ensure that the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Also, look for a big storage basket with pockets and whether there are any other extras that are useful, like sunshades or rain covers.

If you plan to use the buggy primarily in town or on public transport, make sure that it is light and easy to maneuver. You will also need to consider how much it weighs fully loaded, and if it is easy to fold up and fit into the car boot. If you intend to use the buggy in smaller towns and villages, make sure that the wheels are sturdy and grippy enough to navigate through narrow streets and doors.

There are many different types of double buggies with side-byside models being the most well-known. They are longer and harder to push, but they offer the benefit of both children being in a position to see. They can also be pricey.

Tandem buggies are a different option and these have the children positioned next to each other. This is a more comfortable option for older children, but it also means that the buggy is less stable than a side-by-side. It can also be difficult to fit them through narrow doors, and it can be difficult to maneuver between the kerbs.

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

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a great option for those looking for a sleeker, double buggy. It is the lightest double buggy available and its footprint is comparable to that of a single buggy. It has a variety of configurations so that both children can see the world, and it has a handy handbrake that is adjustable handlebar. It can also be used with two infant car seats by way of an adapter.
