What type of buggy would you like?

A double buggy is great for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side-by-side. They can be used as prams, and they have recline mechanisms in each seat, so your children can lay down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from drinks and snacks to wipes and nappies. They're usually lightweight, fold easily and are compact enough to fit in the car boot. If you travel a significant deal, it's important to make sure that the buggy be easily pushed around by folding the wheels into your car boot, and then removed.

You might have seen this kind of double buggy on other moms' strollers or even ridden in one as a kid. These are great for older siblings who want to keep up with you or for twins and typically have a large number of seating options (including 'cinema' seats) for your children to choose from. They are usually simple to navigate, and if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they will effortlessly handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are another popular choice as they're typically more maneuverable than a side-by-side. The second seat is located behind the first rather than on the top. The seats are typically bigger and bulkier than a traditional side by side however, so make sure whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and an infant or three children, with the addition of an extra buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They are more expensive than tandem buggies and side-by-side buggies, but they offer the flexibility of a single buggie and have a high cost of resale. They're generally easy to steer, come with a huge storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some models come with a built-in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema seats'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the most efficient way to transport your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two main kinds of double buggy - side-byside buggies that let your children sit side by side or tandem buggies where one child is higher than the other. Both buggies can accommodate two fixed seats. However side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower to be able to pass through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot and toddler seats.

Do you have a toddler?

A younger sibling can be a big responsibility initially, particularly when you have to tend to the baby. A double buggy can also make it easier for them to feel included if you put them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It can also help your child get into their new role as big brother or sister'.

Side-by-side double buggies are usually considered to be the best choice for twins because they allow both children to enjoy the same view, however they can be heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc which has an innovative frame that can be expanded the width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides various configuration options, such as the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who like to explore. This innovative buggy is a single-pushchair which can be made a double stroller for twins by adding an additional seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it features many thoughtful features that will keep everyone happy.

Do you require an automated system of travel for your business?

Double buggies can be a great way to transport your children in a comfortable way. However they aren't necessary for every family. Depending on your lifestyle, and the age gap between your kids you may be able to make do with just a single stroller and some attachments like baby carriers and toddler harnesses that let you carry your child on their backs or in front of you.

There are three types of double buggies: tandem side-by-side, and convertible. The two seats are positioned parallel to each other, so your children can see each other. They are wider than a single stroller and aren't easy to navigate around the kerbs. Tandem buggies are compact, with one seat in the front and another at the back. However they can be quite heavy and long to push.

Convertible double buggies are wonderful as they allow you to transform your stroller to an additional buggy by attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This allows you to keep your newborn snuggled up comfortably in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is an excellent illustration of this. It's suitable for twins, a baby and toddler or even three kids with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

Once your children are older and have more stamina, a double pram and pushchair buggy can also be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they'd prefer to walk. It's important to remember that your children may not always enjoy being in a stroller, and may become tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions.

Before you invest in a double stroller, take into consideration the factors mentioned above and your family's specific circumstances. Having a solid and reliable double twin stroller with car seats can make life much easier, especially if you need to navigate busy streets or crowded shopping centres.
