3 Wheel Double Buggy

A great option for parents who want to take their kids off-road, the Fox 5 is a true all-terrain baby stroller. It features a fantastic suspension and huge wheels that are puncture-proof.

Our test participant Claire was amazed by the clean packaging, easy-to-open and thought it was to be one of the quickest and easiest pieces of baby gear to put together. She tried it on some rough terrain and was impressed with its performance.

Seats

Most 3 wheel double buggies are designed as single pushchairs. However, some models can be converted to accommodate a second seat with adapters. You'll also see that some models let you add a ride-on board for older children who wish to walk but require some help.

For a light-weight option that is ideal for city streets, check out the Joie Evalite Duo. It's easy to move, and it has a large basket that is full of storage. It can be used to accommodate twins from birth and accommodate two car seats as well as seats and a carrycot. The seats must be facing towards the front and there is no room to store an item under the seat. You will need an additional side bag.

If you like to travel off-road then the Mountain Buggy Duet is a good option. It's a side by side model with the smallest footprint of any double buggy on the market. This allows it to squeeze through doors that are narrow and on public transport and also allows you to go up and down kerbs without much trouble. It also has a handbrake on the adjustable handlebar for extra security and safety.

Another option that is light weight is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 Double that can be used for twins or a baby and toddler. The seats have multi-position reclining and UPF 50+ sunshades, and 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 mobile older children.

The iCandy Orange double buggies are one of the most popular available. This is due to their exceptional comfort. It's an all-terrain model with soft suspension that makes light work of bumpy surfaces. It has 30 different seating configurations and a built-in board for older children who like to walk, and a 'cinema' mode which raises the back seats for better visibility.

The phil&teds dots are fantastic single buggys that can be easily adapted to take two (or three!) different configurations. This is especially useful if you have a baby in a car. The frame can be adapted to a wedgie that allows for the best lie-flat position. Or car seat adapters that fit a wide range of brands.

Suspension

The quality of the suspension in a triple buggy is crucial to how it will be easy for you and your baby to push. It is essential to have a smooth ride, as babies can feel every bump on the road. This is especially true if you are driving on rough terrain like grass or roads that are not paved. Some models come with locking front tires to help maneuver and get over obstacles like curbs.

Some models have air-filled tyres which are ideal for all-terrain riding, but they are susceptible to punctures. Be sure to keep a spare set of tyres in the trunk. Other models use gel or foam tyres that are designed to take the bumps and are less prone to punctures, but you might find them to be a bit stiff and uncomfortable on your child's back if you choose to jog.

Our award-winning side-byside duet buggy has a brilliant suspension that will get you over any terrain comfortably and with ease making it the ideal buggy for city strolls. You can even upgrade the duet by adding our dual kit in order to take 2 children - all within the same compact footprint!

MFM reviewer Kath took the Urban Glide 2 through its tests with her newborn and 3 year old son, and found it performed admirably on difficult terrains: "it navigated effortlessly over grass and bumpy pavements dirt tracks, cobbles and cobbles effortlessly and was easy to manoeuvre around corners and get up and down kerbs. It's also very comfortable to jog on, thanks to the 16" rear wheels and lockable swivel front wheel that provide a steady running experience." The Urban Glide 2 is loaded with features as well with a large basket with zip-top cover large cushioned seat, 50+ UV hood, and game changing visibility lights that are easy to use and recharge.

Folding

A three-wheel double buggy could be folded neatly for storage. You can find options that fold flat and stand up (as when they were in a pushchair) and also ones that pop out to reveal more of an umbrella-style fold, with the option of a brake operated by hand. The more wheels the buggy has, generally, the easier it is to maneuver over rough terrain. This is especially true if the wheels are bigger than the average size. You will have more stability, and it is less likely that you need to flip or tip your child.

The most popular model is the iCandy Wave, which can be used as early as birth with an infant car seat. It transforms into a side-by-side double buggy once your child is old enough for them to sit beside each one. It's a light option that is easy to push. It also comes with a bumper bar as well as a raincover.

The phil&teds sports is a different option. It is a future-proof model as it's an excellent buggy, and can be modified to accommodate two (or three!) All of this is incorporated into its small footprint. It has an innovative three-wheel design that includes an sling to improve manoeuvrability and stability.

If you're looking to run with your children it is the best double buggies for jogging as it has a lockable swivel front wheel that helps you remain in control when you're tackling off-road or hilly tracks. It also has a generously-sized undercarriage basket, an adjustable handlebar, and a soft suspension for an enjoyable ride.

This is a light compact model that folds with just one hand. It's perfect for travel. It's compatible with numerous infant car seats, and comes with a handy undercarriage basket to store your shopping. It's a bit on costly side, but has a few standout features that make it a great price, including its simple one-click fold, and numerous extras like a bumper bar and raincover.

Storage

Many are awed by the capacity of storage offered by a 3 wheel double buggy. Some models like the Roma Atlas offer a generously-sized basket and 2 handy zip pockets on the hood to keep keys and your phone in reach. It's also designed to withstand a bit rough terrain, making it a great option for family walks and all-terrain walks.

Other models, like the UPPAbaby Vista 2 offer plenty of space and the flexibility to carry twins or a baby and a toddler (it takes their 'PiggyBack' board to enable this). It's the smallest side-by-side double available. It also has some impressive technology, including LED lights for visibility that are placed on both sides of its frame to ensure safety in low-light conditions.

For something different, the Joie Evalite Duo is a light buggy that can hold twins from birth (it's open to the world and features the ability to lie flat). The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate the additional seat, but it only weighs about 11kg, which makes it easy to lift and maneuver. 3 wheeled pushchair can be used with the car seat, a carrycot, or both. This lets you enjoy the best of both worlds.
