What to Look For in a Double Pushchair 3 Wheeler
The first double buggy that is modular that grows with your family, changing from single to tandem in just a few seconds and accepting car seats. It also comes with a large basket and foam-filled tyres that never flatten.
Our MFM testers were impressed by its unique one-handed folding mechanism and the clever mechanism for attaching and remove cocoons that are still in the infant stage. However, they found it was not as agile on rough terrain as models with larger wheels.
Comfort
A high-quality double pushchair 3 wheeler must be comfortable for both the baby and parents with a comfortable seat and a hood that covers their heads. There are many colourways and fabrics as well as accessories available to suit your personal style. Some models come with a lie-flat mode for infants, and the majority of models feature various positions that recline. Some are also light which makes them easier to lift into the boot or up and down kerbs.
Look for features that will make the ride more comfortable, like soft suspension or the large basket. Certain models come with frames that expand in width to accommodate a second seating position. This lets them fit through narrow doorways, and they are easier to maneuver on rough terrain. Some have a sleek standing fold that requires less space for storage between uses, and some include an rucksack that can be used for transporting the buggy.
Side-by-side buggies are generally wider than single buggys but some, such as the Roma Gemini, manage to be lighter and still feel comfortable enough to be used in cities or at theme parks. They're also generally easier to get to and from kerbs than some other twin-seaters, thanks to their more evenly weight distribution. Many can be used for infants up to four years old. of age. Some models allow you to connect carrycots or child car seats to prolong their lifespan.
Some can be converted to a three-child set by incorporating a buggyboard for older, mobile children (UPPAbaby vist v2 double). It's worth remembering that while most manufacturers will specify a maximum weight per seat, and possibly a total frame weight but it's not possible to know how much your children will grow until they reach the age of toddlers.
In the end, the best way to decide how well an oversized double pushchair can work for you is to test it out in person, so you can see how easy it is to manoeuvre with both babies in the seat. If you're considering a particular model, ask the shop for a demonstration or hire agreement so you can experience it in person.

Safety
A double pushchair that has 3 wheels will provide you with more stability than a four-wheeled model and is safer if you walk regularly in the countryside. Standard pushchairs with tiny wheels are prone to getting clogged with sticks, grass and mud, making them difficult to navigate. A double pushchair that has 3 wheels has large rear wheels which take up the majority of the space. It is less likely to get into anything.
All-terrain pushchairs, such as the Roma Gemini, are a great option for anyone who lives in an area with a lot of bumpy and rough terrain.

Similar to the UPPAbaby Vista 2 can handle all kinds of terrain, and is perfect for twins or toddlers and babies with the addition of a 'PiggyBack' Board (sold separately).
The Bugaboo Fox 5 is another excellent model of a pushchair that is all-terrain. The tyres with air filled tires allow you to jog with your child when they are old enough. It's important to remember that these types of pushchairs weigh a bit more than standard models and can be a bit heavy to fold. Therefore, it's ideal to use them for long, strenuous walks on different types of terrain rather than for nipping around the city.
