Seats

The majority of triple buggies are initially single pushchairs. However, some models can be converted to accommodate an additional seat or carrycot by converting adapters (these are more commonly found in tandem buggies). Certain models let you add an additional board for older children who are ready to walk, but still require a little help.

If you’re looking for a lightweight option that is ideal for city streets, check out the Joie Evalite Duo. It is easy to maneuver and comes with an enormous basket that has plenty of storage. It can accommodate twins from birth and accept two car seats or an infant carrycot and seat.

Suspension

The suspension of a double 3 wheel buggy will determine how easily your child/children and you can push it. A smooth ride is essential because babies feel every bump in the road, particularly if it’s in rough terrain such as grass or paths that aren’t paved. Some models come with locking front tires that help maneuver and get over obstacles like curbs.

Some models have tyres with air filled which are ideal for all-terrain rides, but they are susceptible to punctures. Be sure to keep a spare set of tyres inside the trunk. Some models have gel-filled or foam-filled tyres that are designed to absorb bumps. They are less likely to puncture, but they might be uncomfortable for your child should you choose to jog.
