What is a single buggy?
A
single seat stroller buggy is a lightweight four-wheeled vehicle that is typically driven by a single horse. It is often used by Amish people, and it is also referred to as a Sleigh. A single buggy is a favorite for families, as it provides easy mobility for all members of the family.

Different types of single buggies
A buggy that is lightweight is a great option for parents who travel a lot, use public transport or are planning to go on a vacation with their child. They typically weigh less than 6kg and have a compact fold, meaning they can be easily carried in the overhead luggage compartments on flights. They are also easy to maneuver making them perfect for city travel. Many come with shade and raincover that are worth investing in to keep your baby happy on any outing!
A jogger's buggy is large with BMX wheels and is specifically designed for use in the gym. It will have a good suspension to absorb the bumps, bounces and other ill effects of off-road usage. Jogger buggies can be difficult to steer since the front wheel can be able to swivel, and it's vital to lock it when you are mounting kerbs or crossing roads.
A few buggies are convertible. This allows the seat to be positioned forward or backward (also known as parent-facing). This is great for babies who are sensitive and want to be capable of seeing their parents. Some models are only forward-facing, which means they're best for older children who don't like to be interrupted.
Alternatively, there are tandem buggies, designed to take two children of the same age side by side. This is useful when you have twins or babies born close together but can be difficult to navigate, particularly in small spaces. Some tandem buggies include an adjustable mechanism on each seat so that your toddler can lay flat while you push them.
The ideal single-buggy will depend on the size of your family, your budget and lifestyle. If you have a baby look into a buggy that is lightweight with a lie-flat seat that can be used from birth. If you're looking to future secure your finances, look for one that can adapt to a double buggy for the day when you need it. The phil&teds brand has created the first inline buggy in the world and is now offering a range of kit bundles and strollers to help you achieve your goal.
Buying a single buggy
A new buggy is an expensive purchase. The majority of pushchairs with bassinets for babies cost upwards of PS700, which can be a big ask for parents with limited incomes.
A majority of families buy at least two buggies, unless they live in a huge city with easy access public transport or an enormous car boot. They also are more likely to spend their weekends in muddy parks. A sturdy, robust buggy that can hold loads, cope with rough terrain and potentially expand with the family, and a light travel buggy to take on holidays and tight spaces, such as on public transport or in crowded streets.
Our suggestion is to purchase one you love and, in the event that your little one grows older and you need an additional double, you can simply sell it on and re-buy the buggy you want. You won't be stuck with a novelty you don't need.
Buying the double buggy
When purchasing a double-buggy you have a lot to consider from how much it will cost to what type of reclining positions the seats offer. You should also think about whether you need a large basket or the type of suspension the buggy offers. It is also important to consider what features you want the buggy to have, such as sunshades and rain covers as well as snack trays.
There is a variety of double buggies available on market and the
best single travel stroller one for you will depend on the person who will be using it as well as your lifestyle and budgetary limitations. If you're expecting twins, or have a toddler and newborn or a baby, you may require a more flexible pushchair that can adapt to the growing family. UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a perfect example of this, offering 30 different seating options for all age groups. It can be used as a
single stroller with bench seat stroller since the beginning, and later changed to a side-by-side model when your children get older. The Ride-Along Piggyback Board can be used to carry a third child and is a flexible option.
Another option is the Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2. It is among the tiniest double buggies available and has a footprint almost as narrow as that of a single buggy. It comes with two seats facing the world with reclining options independently which can be adjusted to a flat position. It can be adapted so that it can fit two carrycots, cocoons and two baby car seats.
The handle folds by using just one hand via the twist mechanism. It's light and compact, but not as small as the Cybex Gazelle S. It has excellent suspension and a footbrake which operates smoothly, making it easier to push over rough surfaces. The harness straps and seats of the car are padded which makes it comfortable for your child to sit in.
