What to Look For in a Double Pushchair 3 Wheeler

The world's first modular double buggy that expands with your family, switching from single to tandem in seconds and also accepting car seats. It has a generous basket, as well as tyres that are filled with foam that never go flat.

Our MFM testers praised its smart one-handed fold and its clever mechanism for attaching and removing newborn cocoons. They thought it was not as agile as models equipped with larger wheels for rough terrain.

Comfort

A good quality double pushchair 3 wheeler must be comfortable for both the baby and parents with a padded seat and hood that protects their heads. You will also have a wide choice of colourways and accessories that match your personal style. Most models feature recliners in multiple positions and some feature an option to lie flat for newborns. Some models are lightweight, making it easier to lift them into the boot as well as up and down kerbs.

Find features that make the ride more comfortable, for example an easy suspension or the large basket. Some models have an innovative frame that expands widthways to accommodate the second seat, so you can fit them through narrow doorways and are more maneuverable on tough terrain. Some models feature a standing fold that reduces the space needed in storage. Some models have a bag for transporting the buggy.

Side-by-side buggies are generally wider than single buggys but some, like the Roma Gemini, manage to be lighter, yet still feel nippy enough for use in cities or at theme parks. They're also generally easier to maneuver to and from kerbs, unlike some other twin-seaters, thanks to their more evenly distributed weight. They are suitable for babies up to four years of age. Some are able to attach carrycots or child car seats to prolong their life.

Some can even convert to a trio of children by incorporating a buggy board for older children who are mobile (UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double). It's worth remembering that while the majority of manufacturers stipulate the maximum weight per seat, or perhaps a total frame weight but it's not possible to know how much your child will increase in weight until they reach toddlerhood.

You can decide whether a triple wheeler pushchair is right for you by testing it out. This will allow you to see how easy it is with both babies inside. If you're considering a particular model, ask the shop for a demonstration or hire agreement to test it in person.

Safety

A double pushchair with 3 wheels will give you more stability than a model with four wheels and is more secure if you regularly walk in the countryside. The typical pushchair with small wheels are prone to getting clogged with sticks, grass, and mud, making them difficult to navigate.

The Bugaboo Fox 5 is another great example of an all-terrain pushchair. It's ideal for jogging when your child is old enough, thanks to its air-filled tyres and suspension. But, it's important to keep in mind that these types of pushchairs are a little heavier than standard ones and can be a bit heavy to fold, so it's ideal to take them on long walks over different kinds of terrain instead of for a quick trip around town.
