What to Look For in a Double Pushchair 3 Wheeler
It is the first double buggy that is modular in the world. It can be changed from single to tandem mode in just a few seconds and can be used with car seats. It comes with a large basket, and foam-filled tyres that never wear out.
Our MFM testers were impressed by its clever one-handed fold and the clever mechanism for attaching and removing newborn cocoons. They found it not as agile as models with larger wheels when on rough terrain.
Comfort
A high-quality double 3 wheeler pushchair must be comfortable for both the child as well as the parent. It should have a comfortable seat, and an hood that covers both of their heads. There is also an array of colours and fabrics, as well as accessories to suit your style. Many models come with recliners in multiple positions and some feature a lie flat mode for infants. Some models are lighter which makes it easier to move them into the car and up and down kerbs.
Look for features that will make the ride more comfortable, like soft suspension or the large basket. Some models come with a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate the second seat, meaning you can fit them through narrow entrances and are easier to maneuver in rough terrain. Certain models come with a clever standing fold that reduces the space needed in storage. Others come with a handy bag for transporting the buggy.
The Roma Gemini is a good example of a side-byside buggy that is larger than a single one, but still feels agile enough to be used in theme parks or cities. They're also easier to maneuver to and from kerbs than some other twin-seaters, thanks to their evenly weight distribution. They are suitable for babies up to four years old. Some have the option to attach carrycots or car seats to extend their lifespan.
Some even allow for three kids by adding a buggy board for older children who are mobile (UPPAbaby Vist V2 Double). It's important to note that although most manufacturers will specify the maximum weight for each 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.
The best way to decide how well a double pushchair 3 wheeler can work for you is to try it in person, so that you can observe how easy it is to manoeuvre with both children in the seat. If you're considering a particular model, ask the retailer to show you a demonstration or a hire agreement so you can test it in the real world.
Stability
If you're looking for a double pushchair three wheeler that can handle rough terrain as well as the main streets, check out the Mountain Buggy Twin Vesta. The side-by-side buggies feature independently reclining seats as well as rear and front suspension and an easy ride on uneven surfaces. It also comes with a large shopping basket and a simple two-gate opening bumper, which makes it perfect for parents who are on the move.
The iCandy Geo 3 is a compact and sleek city buggy. Its large pneumatic wheels (air-filled) are ideal for bumpier terrain and the front wheel can rotate 360 degrees or be locked so you can steer through tight spaces. It can also be used to carry twins or a baby and a toddler (depending on the type of car seat or carrycot employed) and can be used as a single with the baby carrier attached to its clever frame that expands widthways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is a flexible option that can accommodate twins as well as a baby, toddler and even three children by adding a board. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate an additional seat and can be used as a single pushchair with an infant or car seat carrier attached to its smart adaptors. The front wheel is cleverly designed to be locked or rotated, and the seat can be reclined in different positions for the growing toddler or child.
Other models worth a look include the Out n About Nipper V5 and the UPPAbaby Vista 2. The Out n About Nipper V5 is a favourite among MFM testers because of its sleek design and high-end fabric. It can be used as a single or double seat with 15kg maximum weight. Its swivel lockable front wheel and foam-filled tyres that never flat are perfect for off-road walking or even jogging, once your child is old enough.
This is a fantastic pick if you're after an all-terrain double that can handle long walks as well as rough terrain, such as cobbles dirt tracks, grass, and cobbles. Its huge 16" rear wheels with lockable swivel wheels and excellent suspension make it an impressive bike.
Safety
A double pushchair with 3 wheels will give you more stability than a four-wheeled model and is more secure if you regularly walk in the countryside. The typical pushchair with small wheels can become clogged with sticks, grass, and mud which makes them difficult to navigate. A double pushchair that has 3 wheels has large rear wheels which cover the majority of the space. It is less likely to get into anything.
All-terrain pushchairs, like the Roma Gemini, are a great option for anyone who lives in an area that has a lot of bumpy and rough terrain. This model comes with large, puncture resistant all-terrain tires and a strong suspension that allows it to navigate any surface without issue. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is also able to handle any terrain and is suitable for twins, a baby or toddlers using a 'PiggyBack board' (sold separately).
The Bugaboo Fox 5 is another great model of a pushchair that is all-terrain. The air-filled tyres allow you to run with your child when they're old enough. But, it's important to keep in mind that these pushchairs weigh more than standard models and can be quite heavy to fold. It's best to take them on long walks across different terrains rather than for nipping around town.
