Seats

Most 3 wheel stroller wheel double buggies start as single pushchairs. However, some can be modified to accept an additional seat by using adapters. Certain models let you add an extra board for older children who are able to walk, but still need some help.

If you're looking for a lightweight alternative that's ideal for city streets, check out the Joie Evalite Duo. It's easy to move and comes with a large basket that has plenty of storage space. It can accommodate twins from birth and accept two car seats or seats and a carrycot. The seats have to face toward the forward direction and there isn't room to store a shopping bag under the seat. You will need a sidepack.

Mountain Buggy Duet will be an ideal choice when you love off-roading. It is a side by tandem with the most compact footprint of any double buggy 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. It also has a handbrake that is attached to the handlebar that can be adjusted for more security and safety.

Another lightweight choice is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 Double it can be used for twins or a toddler and baby. The seats come with multi-position recline and UPF 50+ sunshades, while the canopy can be adjusted to keep the sun out of your child's eyes. The Vista 2 can even be transformed into a triple with the addition of UPPAbaby's 'PiggyBack board for older and mobile kids.

The iCandy Orange is one of the most sought-after double pushchair 3 wheeler buggies on the market due to its outstanding comfort. It's an all-terrain pushchair with soft suspension to make smooth work of bumpy surfaces. It can accommodate up to 30 seating configurations, and comes with a built-in ride-on for older children who prefer walking, and a 'cinema seating' mode which raises the back seat to improve visibility.

The phil&teds dots are brilliant single buggys that are easily modified to take two (or three!) in multiple configurations. This is especially helpful when you have a child in a car seat, because the frame can be fitted with a wedgie for optimum lie-flat positioning, or car seat adapters to many brands.

Suspension

The suspension of a triple wheeled buggy will determine the ease with which you and your child/children can push it. A smooth ride is essential since babies can feel every bump on the road, particularly if it's in rough terrain such as grass or unpaved paths. Some models also have locking front wheels to assist in maneuvering and navigating obstacles such as curbs.

Some models come with air-filled tyres, which give you a great all-terrain adventure, but they could be susceptible to punctures, so make sure you have spares in the trunk. Others have foam or gel tyres, which are designed to withstand bumps and can be less prone to punctures, however, you might feel a bit stiff and uncomfortable on your child's back if you decide to run.

Our award-winning side-byside duet buggy comes with a superb suspension that lets you go over any terrain easily and comfortably making it the ideal buggy for city walks. You can even upgrade the duet with our dual kit, allowing you to accommodate two children - all in the same compact footprint!

MFM reviewer Kath took the Urban Glide 2 through its trials with her newborn and 3 Wheel Infant Stroller year old son, and found it was able to handle difficult terrain: "it navigated effortlessly over grass and bumpy pavements, cobbles and dirt tracks with ease and was easy to maneuver around corners and climb up and down kerbs. The 16" rear wheels, when combined with the lockable swivel wheel on the front, create an extremely comfortable jogging experience. The Urban Glide 2 has a variety of features, such as an enormous seat unit that comes with a padded cover as well as a hood that has 50+ UV protection and easy-to-use and rechargeable visibility lights.

Folding

A three wheel pushchair-wheeled double buggy can be folded in a neat manner for storage. There are models that fold flat, stand up (as as if they were the form of a pushchair) and also pop out to reveal a more umbrella-style folding, with a hand-operated break. In general the more wheels a buggy comes with the more able it will be to navigate over rough terrain. This is especially true if the wheels are larger than average size. You will have more stability, and it is less likely that you need to flip or tip your child.

A popular choice is the iCandy Wave, which can be used from birth using an infant car seat, and then converts to a side-by-side double buggy when your child is old enough for them to sit next to each other. It's a light-feeling option, which makes it easy to push, and it comes full of extra features including raincover and a bumper bar.

Another option is the phil&teds sport, which is future proof because it's a fantastic single buggy from day one and then adjusts to accommodate 2 (or even 3 wheel jogger stroller!) All of this is contained in its small footprint. It has a clever three-wheel design with a sling for better manoeuvrability and stability.

This is one of the best double buggies for jogging with your children. It comes with an adjustable front wheel that locks, that will allow you to keep your balance on hills or off-road terrain. It also comes with a large undercarriage basket, an adjustable handlebar, and a soft suspension to ensure a comfy ride.

It's a light compact model that folds easily with one hand. It's ideal to take on trips. It's compatible with a wide selection of infant car seats, and comes with an undercarriage basket that can be pulled out that can be used to store shopping. It's a bit costly, but it has some notable features, like its one-click folding and many additional features, such as a bumper bar or raincover.

Stores

One thing that people appreciate about a good triple wheeled double buggy is its storage capabilities. Some models, like the Roma Atlas, have a large basket, as well as two zip pockets on the hood, where you can store your keys and phone. It's also designed to deal with slightly rough terrain making it a great choice for family walks and all-terrain strolls.

Other models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista 2, offer plenty of room and the possibility of transporting twins or a toddler and a child. (This is possible thanks to their 'PiggyBack board'). It's the slimmest side-by-side double in the market and comes with some impressive tech including game-changing LED visibility lights that change on each side of the frame to increase security in low-light conditions.

The Joie Evalite Duo, a stroller that is light enough to accommodate twins from birth and is a world-facing stroller with a lie-flat seat It's something completely different. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate the additional seat, but it only weighs around 11kg so it's easy to move and lift. It can be used with a car seat, carrycot or both. This allows you to have the best of both worlds.
