If you google buggyboard,they have an information page,all different makes of buggy and if the buggyboard will fit yours.I have exactly the same problem.They have all the info you need.
I have the same problem,trying to fit a buggyboard to my Graco tandem as I'll have three under 2.5 in May.I do know you can get one to fit on an I Candy.

Hi,Vicky.No problem,I was looking at those a few weeks ago,trying to see if I could get away with it.There are other makes of buggyboard.Litaf does one with a seat.Not sure how easy it would be to push a twin buggy with that on though.
Think a lady at the school's one is a buggyboard one,Laura.I'll have a good nose next time I see her,but she's got it on her I Candy pear.She has her three year old on it,she's got baby twins,about 9-10 months.

are you buying a new buggy or just the board?

the power jane is a double with a buggy board

there's a side by side gracco one, can't remember the type, but it's in asda for £140 ish, and the seat in the middle is joint, so it's like one long seat, well anyway u can get all 3 kids on that by pushing the other two's legs to the side and sitting the 3rd in the middle. know it's not what it's ment for, but it worked better than the board for me as charlie wouldn't stand on the board and thought he was it sitting in the same buggy as his sisters lol

I have a 16 month age gap between my toddler and my twins.  He was too little for a buggy board when he arrived, so I've been using an ABC Everest imported from New Zealand - if anyone's in the same boat I'd really recommend it.  They're quite expensive, but most triples are, and they do come up on eBay quite often.  It's the width of a double, but with a toddler jockey seat on the handlebars, facing you.  My toddler loves it, and it's lovely to be able to chat to him!  Now he's getting older (28 months) I'm starting to look at 'normal' doubles with buggy boards, so all recommendations are welcome


Juggling a full-time job, three children in nappies, and a husband.  So much more than just a mother...

as far as doubles go ive roadtested a few, and i cant recomend my i candy pear enough, as it converts to single the frame is small but the second child isnt in the shopping basket like phil and teds, both seats fully recline and you still have a huge shopping basket main benefit is both children facing you or away!

its quite expensive, but they go very cheap on ebay and usually are hardly used. i keep an eye out as im after more accessories and one went last night for 299. actually saying that its only cost me so much because i needed carrycot coseytoes (didnt get icandy ones buggysnuggle are far better) carseat and carseat adaptors. the whole pear kit which converts to apple is £479 at my local retailer! this does take a buggyboard as jo said, if you want anymore advice feel free to ask,
