Tandem buggies on the contrary, are usually larger. They typically start as a single pushchair and can then be adjusted to take an additional seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby or a newborn due to their innovative seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be transformed to a triple with the addition of the optional "Piggy Back" board.
