Mountain Buggy Duet Double Rain Cover

Product Information

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. 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.

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 To get the best out of the Duet, Mountain Buggy recommends brushing dirt off the frame and wheels regularly, and removing sand and salt after going to the beach. What’s the Mountain Buggy Duet like to look at? 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. 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 capacity parent facing seat. The Duet comes with a five-point harness, which can easily be adjusted to suit children of different ages.

Key specs

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 Unfortunately you won’t find a rain cover inside (more on that below), which is one of the main downsides to this buggy and one that may be a deal-breaker for some parents. 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.

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 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. The Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2 is the latest update on the Duet, a side-by-side double buggy that can initially be bought as a single to later grow with your family. The Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2 comes with four 10-inch (25cm) air-filled tyres, which are designed to give a smooth ride over bumpy ground. Our tester felt the handling was outstanding on all terrain.

What is a twin travel system and why is it a must have?

However, it’s up to you if or how you adapt the Duet. The fully reclining seats can be used from birth and, with the extra padding, they feel very supportive when in lie-flat mode. While the fabrics unfortunately can’t be machine-washed, they can be sponge-cleaned with warm water and a mild natural soap. When orange juice was spilled on the fabric, it beaded well and didn’t soak in, which meant that the liquid wiped away without leaving a stain. 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. The hoods are easy to pull in and out though and each has a clear peek-a-boo window to make it easier to interact with your children when on the move. Is there a rain cover?

you're having twins - congratulations

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.
