The Duet comes with a five-point harness, which can easily be adjusted to suit children of different ages.

Parent facing longevity. From newborn to 9kg, carrycot plus offers lie flat comfort and reflux safety, then transitions to a parent facing seat up to 15kgs Double buggies range in price and many of the designs that can be adapted, like the Duet, do tend to be at the higher end of the market. While it’s cheaper than some of its competitors, the Duet is still a big investment, especially when you have to pay extra for a rain cover.From newborn to three years, Carrycot Plus offers three unique parent facing solutions in one bundle. Incorporating one of a kind innovation that focuses on longevity, Mountain Buggy ensures parents get more than just a fully featured carrycot. The ‘Plus’ delivers both a safe inclined reflux mode and a 15kg / 33 lbs capacity parent facing seat. Liz found the pram very intuitive to use so didn’t need to refer to the instructions again during testing, but they will be helpful if, at a later date, you need to attach a carrycot, cocoon or car seat. The rain cover comes with its own pouch that can attach to multiple places on the chassis, which means that it won't take up basket space. How easy is the Mountain Buggy Duet to push?

Even though it’s one of the slimmest side-by-sides on the market, the Duet's seats can each take up to 18kg and are spacious enough to last up to age four. The frame and fabric feel high-quality and, with the brilliant handling of this pram on all terrain, we think you get what you pay for. Final verdict A double buggy that caters for all your family’s needs, the Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2 can easily nip around supermarket aisles and fit through doorways while still being spacious enough for your child to rest and grow comfortably. You’ll need a bicycle pump to inflate the tyres, but the buggy is simple to assemble. It took our tester, mum of two Liz, just a few minutes to attach the wheels to the chassis, and to clip on the individual sunshades and bumper bar. During testing, Liz wandered for hours in the pouring rain and both children were completely covered. It kept the whole buggy dry except for the handlebar and wheels. There’s also a Joey Tote Bag available – a shopping basket with handles that replace one of the seats – so that the pram can be used as a single buggy. If you have another older child, there’s even the option to attach the Mountain Buggy Freerider, a stroller board which turns into a kids' scooter.

Mountain Buggy offers an all-terrain pram suited to the needs of modern parents. For quality manoeuvrability, durability, adaptability and simplicity you cannot go past the superior engineering of Mountain Buggy's premium, award-winning products. The standard set-up of the Duet comes with two world-facing seats, but the pram offers a range of configurations to suit different needs. The padded seats on the Duet are just 28cm wide, but Liz’s four-year-old felt very comfortable and had plenty of space despite being at the upper end of the buggy's weight limit. The seats come with a bumper bar, which is easy to unclip and swing out of the way when getting children in or out, and a leg rest that can be extended with one hand. After outings on a variety of terrain during testing, in which the frame and wheels got splattered with mud, the buggy cleaned up well with a cloth and non-abrasive household cleaner.

There are no dangerous gaps or clips that little fingers can reach. While Liz felt that some of the other side-by-side buggies she tested – such as the Chicco Echo Twin Stroller and Out n About Nipper Double – didn’t offer enough support for her youngest (five months) when fully reclined, the padded seats on the Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2 are exceptionally comfy for younger babies – though she did use her own newborn cocoon for added cosiness. The storage on the Duet was one of the best we tested. The basket sits underneath both seats and can fit up to 10kg, which is more than enough for a day out – including a changing bag, a bag of shopping and the rain cover, though this can also be attached to the frame elsewhere. Travel system-compatible, it can be adapted to attach up to two cocoons, two carrycots (which turn into handy parent-facing seats) and two car seats, making it suitable for both newborn twins and siblings of different ages. It’s worth noting though that each seat unzips and clips off, which could be a faff if you wanted to regularly change the set-up. Assembly time will be longer if you plan to attach adaptors and accessories, such as a carrycot or car seat. What’s in the box?From newborn to 9kg, carrycot plus offers lie flat comfort and reflux safety, then transitions to a parent facing seat up to 15kgs Our tester loved how well the Duet fit into all aspects of her life. One of the pram’s selling points is how slim it is compared to other side-by-side buggies. Measuring just 65cm, it’s the same width as a single buggy and one of the most compact side-by-sides on the market. Safely designed reflux/ incline mode. Parents can seamlessly transition from lie flat to incline in seconds. A slight incline raises the head of the child higher than their feet, helping manage reflux. Sleep unaided. Certified for overnight, unaided sleep, featuring a breathable firm mattress and ventilated base to create a safe snug place to sleep when away from home. When out on the nursery run, Liz pushed the buggy down narrow pavements, passed parked cars on both sides of the road and manoeuvred over areas where tree roots had pushed up the concrete. She also went on muddy dog walks in marshland and over sports grounds and gravel, and the Duet performed brilliantly on both.
