Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

Parents who are willing to spend a little more can buy a high-quality tandem stroller that will last for years and retain its price for resales. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is an extremely rated stroller that can be converted to a single. It also comes with an additional seat, the RumbleSeat that adds flexibility.

It offers a comfortable recline seat, a big canopy that has UPF protection of 50+ and a peekaboo window. It's also small and folds easily.

Budget

A good double buggy is an essential item when you have two young kids in tow and shouldn't break the bank. You'll have to take into account car seats or carrycots in addition to the price of the buggy, but even then there are plenty of alternatives available that won't break the bank.

A great option for those who want to keep costs low is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - it's an incredible value at under PS1,000 and can be used with twins or one baby, as well as one toddler or three children (with the 'PiggyBack' board that you can purchase separately). It's the tiniest side-by-side that's available and has an area that's as big as a single pushchair so it's easy to maneuver through doorways, shopping aisles and public transportation.

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

Style

If you're on a budget it is possible to purchase some beautiful double buggies. They look stunning and are very durable. If you choose a well-known brand, they'll have a good resale value.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the most affordable double strollers on the market. It is available in a range of colors and looks elegant. It can be used as a triple buggy by incorporating the UPPA's 'PiggyBack' board. It can take twins as well as a toddler and baby or the child in a car seat. This is a double buggy that is perfect for city use. It has a narrow frame that can fit through most doors and handle trains and shopping aisles.

Another popular option is the iCandy Peach. It's a fantastic light option that is priced at less than PS300 including the adaptors required for carseats. It can also be used as an individual and comes with nice features such as a large, spacious shopping basket front suspension, and UPF 50+ sunshades, with windows that can be seen from a distance. There's also a cup holder that can be used by one parent. The seats can face one another, or be positioned apart.

Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, but they are much easier to push. They aren't always wide which means they won't pass through doors that are narrow. They are best suited for older children who like to sit together. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the slimmest sides-by-sides that are available.

Sites like Rebelstork offer some of the best double strollers for sale at reasonable prices. They offer both old and new models, as well as open boxes and overstocks. You can test them before purchasing. They offer a trade-in scheme that lets you receive a discount on your purchase if you decide for an upgrade.

Convenience

If you're on a budget, but still want a model that can accommodate your children (and you're not afraid of having a little more bulky pushchair) The Joie Evalite Duo is a good choice. Our Lab experts like that it's lightweight, easy to drive and folds in half in a few seconds. It also has ample storage for both children and adults, plus generous UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows; reclined seats that are simple to adjust, as well as a clever brake lever that can be operated with one hand on the handlebar - all at a price point well below PS1000.

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

The seat and the carrycot are side-by-side positioning, meaning your children can see each other and you'll be able to keep an eye on them, so there's less chance of mischance between them. It's also the thinnest available. This means it'll fit through the majority of doors and be maneuvered around corners that are tight. However, it is heavy and long to push when in double mode. It also does not perform as well on uneven or rough terrain like some of our best-value double buggies.

This is our top-rated double stroller. It's a great choice for a price that is mid-range. It's light, comes with a convenient shopping basket and can fit two car seats for children or one baby seat and an infant seat. Its seat is comfortable and its large back wheels are able to handle a little more rough terrain than some of the more compact twin stroller models on our list. It folds down into a compact, self-standing model and comes with a convenient strap for transport. It's not as spacious or as high-quality as some of the best-value doubles, but it's a great price overall.

Safety

Check that the double buggy with carrycot buggy meets all safety standards prior to buying it. The safety straps and the way that the seats adjust to the growth of your child are important. Also, make sure that the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Also, look for a large storage basket and pockets and whether there are other accessories that might be useful like sunshades, rain covers.

If you're planning to be using the buggy primarily in the city or on public transport, make sure whether it is light and easy to maneuver. You'll also want to consider the weight of the buggy when fully loaded, and whether it can be folded up and fitted in your car boot. If you use the buggy frequently in small towns or villages, make sure the wheels are able to grip and can navigate narrow streets and doorways.

There are many types of double buggies, however the most well-known is the side-by-side model. They tend to be larger and more difficult to push, but they do offer the advantage of both children being able to see. These can be quite expensive.

Tandem buggies permit children to be placed 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-byside. It can be a challenge to get them through narrow doorways and up and down kerbs.

The iCandy Peach double buggies are one of the most popular and stylish models. It is unique in its features. These include a built-in ride-on board as well as 'cinema seating'. 30 seating configurations - it will even hold an additional child! It's also lightweight, has good suspension and can be converted from single to double by the purchase of an additional seat.

Mountain Buggy Duet makes a great option for those seeking a more sleek, double buggy. It is the thinnest side-byside available and has an area that is comparable to one buggy. It comes with a variety of configurations to ensure that both children are able to see the world around them. There is an attractive handbrake on the adjustable handlebar. With the addition of an adapter it can also fit two car seats for infants.
