What to Look For in a Double Pushchair 3 Wheeler
It is the first modular double buggy in the world. It can be converted from single to tandem mode in seconds, and it accepts car seats. It also comes with a large basket and foam-filled tyres that never flatten.
Our MFM test participants praised its clever one-handed fold and the clever mechanism to attach and remove newborn cocoons. However, they were disappointed that it was not as agile on rough terrain as models with bigger wheels.
Comfort
A quality double pushchair with 3 wheels should be comfortable for both the baby and parents with a padded seat and hood that protects their heads. There is also a wide choice of colourways, fabrics and accessories to suit your style. Certain models come with a lie flat mode for babies and most models feature various positions that can recline. Some are lightweight too which makes them easier to carry into the boot or up and down kerbs.
Consider features that make your ride more comfortable, for example a soft suspension or an enormous basket. Some models have a frame that expands in width to accommodate the second seating position. This makes them able to fit through narrow doorways, and they are easier to maneuver on uneven terrain. Some models have a neat standing fold which makes use of less space in storage. Some models come with a convenient bag for transporting the buggy.
The Roma Gemini is a good example of a side-byside buggy that is wider than a single buggy, but still feels capable enough to be used in theme parks and cities. They're also easier to maneuver up and down kerbs than some other twin-seaters, thanks to their evenly weight distribution. They can be used by infants up to four years old. older. Some have the option to connect carrycots or child car seats to prolong their lifespan.
The majority of them can be made into an all-in-one set by adding a buggyboard for older, mobile children (UPPAbaby vist v2 double). It's important to note that although the majority of manufacturers stipulate the maximum weight per seat and perhaps a total frame weight but it's not possible to know how much your child will grow until they reach the age of toddlers.
Ultimately, a great method of determining if a double pushchair 3 wheeler will work for you is to test it out in person, so you can observe how it's easy to maneuver with two children in the seat. If you're considering a particular model, ask the store for a demo or a hire agreement to get a feel for it in person.

Safety
A double pushchair that has 3 wheels will provide you with more stability than a model with four wheels and is more secure if you regularly walk in the countryside. Standard pushchairs with tiny wheels can become clogged with sticks, grass and mud, making them difficult to steer. On the other side a double pushchair that has three wheels will have large back wheels that take up most of the space, meaning you're less likely to trip over anything.
