Seats

Most 3 wheel double buggies start life as single pushchairs. However, some models can be converted to accommodate an additional seat or carrycot using adapters (these are more commonly found in tandem buggies). You'll also see that some models will allow you to include a ride-onboard for older children who would like to walk but require some assistance.

Suspension

The suspension of a double 3 wheel buggy will determine how easy you and your child/children are able to push it. It is important to have a smooth ride, as babies can feel every bump in the road. This is especially true if you are driving on rough terrain, such as grass or unpaved roads. Certain models come with locking front tires to help maneuver and get over obstacles like curbs.

Some models come with air-filled tyres, which give you a great all-terrain experience, but they can be susceptible to punctures, so ensure you have spares in the trunk. Some models have gel-filled or foam-filled tyres which are designed to absorb bumps. They can be less likely to puncture, however they might cause discomfort for your child if they choose to jog.

Folding

A three-wheel double buggy can be folded in a neat manner to store it. There are options that fold flat and then stand up (as when they were in a pushchair) as well as those that pop up to reveal more of an umbrella-like fold that has the option of a brake operated by hand. In general the more wheels a buggy comes with the more able it will be to navigate on rough terrain. This is especially true if the wheels are larger than typical size. You will have more stability and it will be less likely that you be forced to flip or tip your child.
