What to Look For in a Double Pushchair 3 Wheeler
It is the first biggy that can be made modular in the world. It can be changed from single to tandem mode in just a few seconds and also accepts car seats. It has a generous basket, as well as tyres that are filled with foam that never go flat.
Our MFM testers were impressed by its unique one-handed folding mechanism and the clever mechanism to attach and remove the newborn cocoons. They felt that it was not as agile as other models with bigger wheels on rough terrain.
Comfort
A high-quality double pushchair with 3 wheels should be comfortable for both baby and parent with a comfortable seat and hood that covers their heads. You can also find an array of colours, fabrics and accessories to fit your preferences. Many models come with recliners in multiple positions and some have the option of lying flat for newborns. Some models are lightweight, making it easier to move them into the car and up and down kerbs.
When you are looking for a double-seater, be sure to look for extra features that make the ride more enjoyable like soft suspension and an oversized basket. Some models have a frame that expands in width to accommodate a second seating position. This lets them fit through narrow doorways and are also easier to maneuver on uneven terrain. Some models have a neat standing fold which reduces the space needed in storage. Some models come with a convenient bag for carrying the buggy.
The Roma Gemini is a good example of a side-byside buggy that is wider than a single buggy yet still agile enough to be used in theme parks and cities. They're also generally easier to maneuver to and from kerbs, unlike other twin-seaters due to their more evenly distributed weight. They can be used from birth to four years old, and some can be fitted with carrycots or car seats to extend the life.
Some can even convert to a trio of children by incorporating a buggy board for older children who are mobile (UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double). While most manufacturers specify the maximum weight limit for each seat, and possibly the entire frame, it's impossible to know precisely how your child will grow before they reach toddlerhood.
You can decide whether a double 3 wheeler pushchair is the right one for you by testing it out. This will allow you to observe how easy it is to get both babies inside. If you're considering a particular model, ask the store for a demonstration or hire agreement to get a feel for it in the real world.

Safety
A double pushchair with 3 wheels will provide you with more stability than a model with four wheels, making it safer for those who walk frequently in the countryside. The typical pushchair with small wheels can become clogged with sticks, grass, and mud, which makes them difficult to steer. On the other the other hand a double pushchair with three wheels will have big back wheels that occupy the bulk of the space, so you're not likely to hit anything.
