Hauck Duett

Description:

A competitively priced tandem pushchair with different configurations for two children of different ages. Very easy to manoeuvre even with older children on board. Main seat converts very easily into a carrycot for a newborn but this limits use of the lower seat. A useful travel system option by adding a car seat. An excellent tandem, ideally for children 6 months+.

Pros:

Great value for money as the carrycot converting seat and second seat is included in the package. A good looking pushchair. Folds with both seats still attached. Takes a Hauck car seat which simply clips onto the frame. Can be used as a single. Good reflective strips for high visibility at night. Plenty of room in the lower seat for an older toddler. Good sized basket. Easy to push and to tip up kerbs. Comfy handlebar with good range of height settings. Large hoods. Good deep seats. Easy to use footbrake.

Cons:

The carrycot and infant carrier does not sit well with the second seat - it will only fit on if the lower seat is reclined. Folding and adding the second seat takes some practice but its easier when you know how! Large fold with two seats on. The lower seat doesn't have sides as such on, so a baby / younger toddler likely to nap is better in the upper seat.
