Seats

The majority of triple buggies are designed as single pushchairs. However, some can be converted to accept an additional seat by using adapters. Some models allow you to add an additional board for older kids who are ready to walk, but still require a little help.

Take a look at the Joie Evalite Duo for an ultra-lightweight option that is perfect for city streets. It's easy to move and has a large basket with lots of storage. It can hold twins from birth and accommodate two car seats as well as a carrycot and seat. However, the seats need to be facing forwards, and there's no room to store a bag of groceries underneath which is why you'll need a sidepack for that.

Mountain Buggy Duet will be an ideal choice if you enjoy off-road driving. It's a side-byside model with the slimmest footprint of any double buggy available on the market. It's much easier to get through narrow doors as well as on public transport. It is also able to climb over and over kerbs. The adjustable handlebar comes with an additional handbrake for security and safety.

The phil&teds dot is a great single buggy that is available from day one which is then able to take 2 (or lightest 3 wheel stroller!) different configurations. This is particularly helpful for parents with children in a car seat as the frame can be equipped with a wedgie for optimum lying flat, or car seat adapters to many brands.

Suspension

The suspension of a double 3 wheel twin stroller wheel buggy will determine the ease with which you and your child/children are able to push it. It is crucial to enjoy a smooth ride since babies feel every bump that comes along the road. This is especially relevant if you drive on rough terrain like grass or unpaved roads. Some models also have locking front wheels to help in maneuvering and navigating obstacles like curbs.

Some models have tyres with air filled that are ideal for all-terrain rides, but they are prone to punctures. Make sure you keep a spare set of tyres in the trunk. Other models use gel or foam tyres that are designed to withstand bumps and can be less prone to punctures but you might feel a bit stiff and uncomfortable for your child's back when you decide to run.

The side-by-side buggy is the best buggy for city walks. It features a fantastic suspension system that lets you effortlessly and comfortably traverse any terrain. You can also upgrade the duet using our dual kit in order to take 2 children - all within the same footprint!

MFM reviewer Kath test-driven the Urban Glide 2 with her three-year-old and newborn, and found it very capable on difficult terrain. "It glided effortlessly over sidewalks and grass, cobbles, and dirt tracks. It was also easy to maneuver around corners and climb up or down kerbs." It's also very enjoyable to jog with the 16" rear wheels and lockable swivel front wheel providing a safe running experience." The Urban Glide 2 has a number of features, such as a large seat unit with a padded cover and hood that offers 50+ UV protection, and easy-to-use and rechargeable visibility lights.

Folding

A 3-wheel double buggy can fold very neatly for storage. There are models that fold flat or stand up (as as if they were the shape of a pushchair) and those that open to reveal a more umbrella-style folding, with the option of a hand-operated break. The more wheels a buggy is equipped with, in general, the easier it is to maneuver over rough terrain. This is particularly applicable when the wheels are larger than average - this will provide you with more stability and make it less likely that your children will fall over or tip over.

A popular choice is the iCandy Wave, which can be used as early as birth with an infant car seat. It it can be converted into a side-byside double buggy once your child is old enough for them to sit beside each other. It's a lightweight option, which makes it easy to push, and it comes with extra features, including raincover and a bumper bar.

The phil&teds sports is another option. It is future-proof since it's an excellent buggy, and can be modified to accommodate two (or three!) All of this is incorporated into its compact footprint. It features a clever 3 wheeler stroller-wheel design and a sling seat for better maneuverability, stability, and the ability to pop the kerb.
