5 Laws That ll Help The Cheap Double Buggy Industry
Buying a Cheap Double Buggy
A little extra on a tandem stroller will ensure it lasts for a long time and is still worth its price. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is an extremely rated stroller that can be converted to one. It also has an additional seat, the RumbleSeat which allows for greater flexibility.
It has decent seat recline and a good-sized canopy with UPF 50+ protection as well as windows that peek out. It's also compact and folds easily.
Budget
A double buggy can be lifesaver for parents with two kids. It will not cost a lot. You'll also have to think about the price of car seats or carrycots, and the cost of the buggy. But even if you do there are plenty of options that won't break the bank.
A great option for those who want to keep costs down is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - it's an incredible value at less than PS1,000 and can accommodate twins, one baby and one toddler or three children (with a 'PiggyBack' board that you purchase separately). It's the lightest tandem available. The footprint is identical to that of a single pushchair, meaning it is able to be easily moved through doors and shopping aisles.
The iCandy Orange double buggies are another great option. It comes with 30 different seating configurations, and soft suspension to make kerbs a breeze. It also converts from single-to-double so it'll grow with your family and even accommodate a third child in the back.
Style
You can still find some gorgeous double buggies for an affordable budget. Many of them look beautiful and are very durable. If you choose a reputable brand, they'll have a good resale value.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the best double strollers available. It is available in a variety of colors and looks stylish. The UPPA "PiggyBack Board" could be added to make it a triple buggy. It can take twins, a baby and toddler or children in car seats. This is an ideal double buggy for city use as it has a slim frame that can be pushed through the majority of doors and be used for shopping, buses and trains.
The iCandy Peach is another popular alternative. This is a lightweight alternative that costs less than PS300 with the adaptors for carseats. It can be used as an individual seat and comes with some great features such as the large wide basket, front suspension, and UPF 50+ shades that have a peekaboo window. There's also a cup holder for one parent. The seats can face one another or be placed apart.
Double buggies that are side-byside cost more, but are less difficult to push. They can be quite wide though so they might not fit through some narrow doors, and are generally more suitable for older children who want to sit facing one another. The Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the slimmest side-by sides on the market.
You can find some of the best cheap double strollers for sale online at sites such as Rebelstork. They offer open box and surplus items as well as new models so you can test before buying. They also offer a trade-in plan which allows you to earn cash back when you decide to upgrade.
Convenience
If you're on a budget but still want a model that can accommodate your kids (and you're okay with a slightly bulkier pushchair) The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option. Our Lab experts like that it's light and easy to drive and folds into a half-length in a matter of seconds. It also provides ample storage for both children and adults, and UPF 50+ canopy with the ability to peek out windows, reclined seats that are simple to adjust, and a clever brake lever that is one-handed on the handlebar - all Terrain double Buggy for a price point well below PS1000.
If you're looking for a budget double stroller that can also accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another suitable option. Its slick frame expands widthways to accept 2 seats or a single stroller seat with an optional bassinet. You can take up to three kids with the UPPAbaby 'PiggyBack,' a running board for older kids (which you buy separately).
The seat and the carrycot are side-by-side seating, meaning that your children will be able to see each other and you'll have an eye on them, so there's less chance of mischance between them. It is also the slimmest on the market. This means it can fit through the majority of doors and can be maneuvered around corners with ease. However, it feels heavy and long when in double mode. It also does not perform as well on uneven or rough terrain like some of our top-quality double buggies.
This is a great mid-priced choice, and our top-rated double stroller. It's light, comes with a handy shopping basket, and can accommodate 2 child car seats or one baby seat and an infant seat. It has a comfortable seat and big wheels on the back that are able to be more robust than some of our more compact models. It also folds into a compact, self-standing model and comes with a comfortable carrying strap. It's not quite as spacious or high-quality as other best-value doubles, but it's an excellent value.
Safety
When buying a double travel stroller buggy make sure it meets all the important safety standards. The safety straps as well as the way in which the seats adjust to the growth of your child are vital. Also, check if the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Look for a large storage basket, pockets and any extras you might need, like sunshades and rain covers.
If you're planning to use the buggy primarily around town or on public transport, ensure that it is light and easy to maneuver. You will also need to take into consideration the weight of the buggy when fully loaded and whether it is easy to fold up and fit in your car boot. If you drive the buggy a lot in villages or small towns, ensure that the wheels are well-groomed and are able to navigate narrow streets and doorways.
There are a myriad of smallest double buggy buggies. However, the most popular is the side-by-side model. They are larger and more difficult to push, but have the benefit of both children being able to see. These can be quite expensive.
Tandem buggies are another option and these have the children placed side-by-side. It is a more comfortable option for older children, but the buggy is less stable. It is also difficult to navigate narrow doors, and up and down the kerbs.
The iCandy Peach double buggy from birth buggies are one of the most compact double stroller popular and stylish models. It comes with a variety of unique features. These include a built-in ride-on board with a cinema seating option and 30 seating configurations. It can even accommodate an additional child! It is lightweight, has a good suspension, and can be converted from a single seat to a double seat with the purchase of supplementary seats.
For those who want a more sleek double buggy the Mountain Buggy Duet is an excellent choice. It is the slimmest double buggy that is available and its footprint is comparable to that of a single buggy. It comes with a variety of configurations to ensure that both children can see the world, and it has a handy handbrake that is adjustable handlebar. It can also take two infant car seats by way of an adapter.
