It is the first double buggy that is modular in the world. It can be transformed from single to tandem mode in just a few seconds and also accepts car seats. It comes with a spacious basket, and foam-filled tyres that will never flat.
Our MFM test participants were impressed by its clever one-handed folding and the clever mechanism for attaching and remove newborn cocoons. However, they found it was not as responsive on rough terrain as models with bigger wheels.
Comfort
A good quality double 3 wheeler pushchair must be comfortable for the baby as well as the parent. It must have a comfortable seat, as well as the hood should cover both their heads. There are a variety of colors, fabrics, and accessories to match your personal style. Some models come with a lie-flat mode for infants, and the majority of models feature different positions that recline. Some models are also lightweight which makes them easier to lift into the boot, or up and down kerbs.
Consider features that make the ride more comfortable, for example a soft suspension or the large basket. Some models have an innovative frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat, which means you can fit them through narrow entrances and are more manoeuvrable on tough terrain. Some have a sleek, standing fold that requires less space in storage between uses and some even include a convenient rucksack to transport the buggy.
The Roma Gemini is a good example of a buggy that is side-by-side that is wider than a single one, yet still flexible enough to be used in theme parks and cities. They're also more easy to move up and down kerbs than some other twin-seaters, thanks to their more evenly distributed weight. Many can be used from birth to four years old, and some can be fitted with car seats or carrycots to extend the lifespan of the seat.
Some can even convert to a trio of children by adding a buggy for older children who are mobile (UPPAbaby Vist V2 Double). While many manufacturers will specify the maximum weight limit for each seat, and possibly for a whole frame, it's impossible to know exactly how much your child will grow before they reach the age of toddlerhood.
