Buying a Cheap Double Buggy

Budget

A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two young children. It will not cost a lot. It is also important to consider the cost of car seats and carrycots, in addition to the cost of the buggy. But even then there are plenty of options that won't break the bank.

A great option for those who are looking to cut costs is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - it's an incredible value at under PS1,000 and can take twins, one baby and one toddler or three kids (with a 'PiggyBack' board that you can purchase separately). It's the most compact side-by-side available that's available and has an area that's as big as a single double stroller pushchair so it's easy to maneuver through the doorways, shopping aisles and public transport.

The iCandy Orange double buggies are another option. It has 30 different seating configurations and soft suspension that makes kerbs simple. It is also able to be changed from a single to a double to grow with your family. You can even fit another child in the back.

Style

There are still beautiful double buggies that are on budget. They are often designed to look great and are extremely durable too. If you select a well-known brand, they will also offer a decent resale price.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is one of the most affordable double twin strollers for newborns available. It comes in a variety of colours and is really elegant to take a look at. The UPPA "PiggyBack Board" could be added to create a triple buggy. It can take twins, a baby and toddler or children in car seats. This is a double buggy that is ideal for use in cities. It has a small frame that fits through most doors and handle trains and shopping aisles.

Another popular choice is the iCandy Peach. This is a lightweight alternative that costs less than PS300 and includes the adaptors needed for carseats. It can also be used as one-person and has appealing features, including an expansive, wide shopping basket and front suspension, as well as UPF 50+ sunshades, with peekaboo windows. There is also a cup holder for one parent, and the seats can face each other or be placed apart.

Double buggies with side-by-side sides cost more, but are easier to push. They can be quite large however, so they may not fit through narrow doors and are usually best suited for older children who want to sit and stand double stroller facing one another. The Mountain Buggy Duet has one of the tiniest sides-by-sides on the market.

Sites like Rebelstork offer some of the best double strollers that are available for sale at a reasonable price. They offer open boxes and overstock items, as well as new models, so you can try before buying.

Convenience

If you're on a tight budget, but still want something that can accommodate your children (and you're okay with a slightly bulkier pushchair) The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice. Our Lab experts love that it's lightweight, easy to drive, and can be folded in half in a few seconds. It's got plenty of storage space for two children, a generous UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out and reclining seats that are easy to adjust and an innovative brake lever on the handlebar. All this for a price lower than PS1000.

If you are looking for a low-cost double stroller that can also accommodate infant car seats such as the iCandy Orange Wave is another suitable option. Its slick frame can be expanded to accommodate two seats or a single stroller with a bassinet that can be added. It can also accommodate up to three kids when you add UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack running board for older children (you purchase it separately).

The seat and carrycot feature side-by-side positioning, meaning your children can see each other and you can keep an eye on them, which means there's less chance of mistaking them. It's also the tiniest side-by-side available and will pass through most doors and is able to be easily steered around tight corners. However, it does feel long and heavy to push when in double mode and doesn't do as well on uneven or rough terrain as our other top-quality double pushchairs with reclining seats buggies.

This is our top-rated double stroller. It's a great choice for a mid-range price. It's lightweight, has a convenient 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 can take on rough terrain better than some of our less compact models. Plus, it folds into an incredibly compact, self-standing design and has a convenient carry strap that makes it easy to transport. It's not as spacious or high-quality as other best-value doubles but it's still a great deal.

Safety

When buying a double buggy you should check that it meets all important safety standards. The safety straps and the way that the seats adjust to the growth of your child are crucial. Also, check if the seats have different recline positions for each age group. Also, look for a large storage basket and pockets and whether there are any other extras that could be useful, like sunshades, rain covers.

If you are planning to use your buggy mostly in towns or on public transportation, you should make sure that it is light and easy to move. You'll also want to consider the weight of the buggy when fully loaded, and if it is able to be folded and put in the car boot. If you intend to use the buggy in small villages and towns, make sure that the wheels sturdy and grippy enough to navigate narrow doorways and pavements.

There are many types of double buggies, but the most popular is the side-by-side model. They are generally longer and more difficult to push, however they offer the benefit of the children both getting a view. They can also be pricey.

Tandem buggies are another option and have the kids placed next to one another. This is a more comfortable option for older children, but it also means that the buggy is less stable than a side-byside. It can also be difficult to fit them into narrow doors, and it can be difficult to maneuver up and down the kerbs.

The iCandy Peach is one of the top double buggies in sales and it is a stylish bit of kit that has numerous unique features.
