Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

Spending a little more on a tandem stroller will ensure it lasts for many years and retains its value. The Uppababy Vista V2 model is an extremely rated stroller that can be converted into a single. It also has an additional seat, the RumbleSeat that allows for more flexibility.

It has a decent recline seat, a big canopy with UPF protection 50+ and a peekaboo window. It folds easily and compactly.

Budget

A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two kids. It shouldn't cost a fortune. You'll need to factor in car seats or carrycots as well as the cost of the buggy itself however, there are some fantastic alternatives available that won't break the bank.

A great option if you want to keep costs down is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which is an amazing value for money at less than PS1,000 and can take twins, one baby and one toddler or three children (with a 'PiggyBack' board that you purchase separately). It's the tiniest tandem available. The footprint is identical to that of a single pushchair, so it is able to be easily pushed through doorways and shopping aisles.

The iCandy Orange is another great alternative and one of our top budget double buggies - it has 30 seating configurations and features soft suspension that makes light work of the kerbs. It can also be converted from single to double to accommodate your family and accommodate a third child in the back.

Style

If you are on a budget, you can still buy some gorgeous double buggies. Many of them look great and are extremely durable. If you choose a well-known brand, they'll have good resale value.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the best double strollers that are available. It comes in a range of colors and looks elegant. It can be used as a triple buggy by adding UPPA's separate 'PiggyBack' board. It can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or children in car seats. This is a perfect double buggy for urban use since it has a narrow frame that will fit through most doorways and can be used for shopping as well as trains, buses and other vehicles.

Another option that is popular is the iCandy Peach. It is a light option that is priced at less than PS300 and includes the adaptors required for carseats. It can be used as an individual seat and comes with some great features such as a large wide basket, front suspension and UPF 50+ shades with peekaboo window. There's a great one-parent cup holder and the seats can be positioned to face each other or away from each other.

Side-by-side double buggies cost more but are often more easy to push than other kinds. They can be quite wide however they might not fit through narrow doors. They are typically better suited to older children who prefer to be seated facing each other. The Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the slimmest side-by-sides available on the market.

You can find a selection of the best cheap double strollers online at sites such as Rebelstork. They have new and old models and open boxes and overstocks. You can try them before purchasing. They also have a trade-in program to allow you to get cash back in the event that you decide to upgrade.

Convenience

If you're on a tight budget and still want a model that can accommodate your children (and you're not afraid of having a little more bulky pushchair) then the Joie Evalite Duo is a good choice. It's easy to fold, lightweight and easy to drive. It offers ample storage for two children, generous UPF 50+ canopy with the ability to peek out as well as reclining seats that are easy to adjust and a clever brake lever on the handlebar. All this for a price lower than PS1000.

If you're looking for a budget double buggy that can accommodate infant car seats and car seats, the iCandy Orange Wave is another excellent option. Its slick frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats or a single stroller seat with a bassinet option. You can take up to three children using the UPPAbaby "PiggyBack," the running board for older kids (which you purchase separately).

The seat and the carrycot are placed side-by-side, so your children will be able to see each other and you can keep an eye on them. This decreases the chances of them becoming confused. It's also the tiniest side-by-side on the market and will pass through most doors and is able to be easily steered around tight corners. However, it feels long and heavy to push when it's in double mode, and isn't as effective on uneven or rough terrain as some of our other best-value double buggies.

This is a great mid-range choice and our top-rated double stroller. It's light and has a handy shopping basket, and can take 2 child car seats or one baby seat as well as an infant seat. It has a comfortable seat and big wheels on the back that are able to handle rougher terrain than some of our less compact models. It folds down into a compact twin stroller self-standing design and comes with a convenient carrying strap. It's not quite as spacious or high-quality as other best-value doubles but it's still an excellent value.

Safety

Make sure that the double buggy meets all safety standards before buying it. This includes safety straps, the way that the seats adjust as your children get older and if they come with different reclining positions to suit their age. Also, look for a large storage basket with pockets and whether there are any other items that might be useful such as sunshades or rain covers.

If you're planning to use the buggy primarily in the city or on public transport check whether it is light and easy to maneuver. Also, you should consider the weight of the buggy when fully loaded, and whether it can be folded and put in the car boot. If you plan to use the buggy in smaller towns and villages, make sure that the wheels well-gripped and are able to navigate through narrow streets and doors.

There are a variety of double pushchair sale buggies, however the most well-known is the side-by-side model. They are longer and harder to push, but they offer the benefit of both kids being capable of seeing. They can also be quite pricey.

Tandem buggies are an alternative and these have the children positioned next to each other. It is a more comfortable option for older children, however the buggy is less stable. It is also difficult to maneuver them through narrow doors and up and down kerbs.

It can also accommodate two infant car seats with the addition of an adapter.
