Peg-Pérego Duette (SW)

DISCONTINUED in 2011
see 3 parent reviews

The Peg-Pérego Duette (also known as the Duette SW - Sibling Wagon) is a tandem stroller featuring a long chassis equipped with rear suspension. The shopping basket is spacious, but not that easily accessible. The chassis can be folded after removing carrycots, seats or car seats. Once folded, it needs a larger car boot to be able to fit in.

Large wheels can handle even a more demanding terrain. The wheels can swivel, but they do not rotate 360º - they are connected to the steering wheel that is located on the handlebar. The height of this steering wheel can be adjusted by tilting. The front wheel locking mechanism is located on the steering wheel as well.

The chassis can handle either two car seats Primo Viaggio, two seats in whatever direction or a combination of the seat with either a car seat or the Navetta XL carrycot, which will accommodate a newborn and an older sibling. The chassis is not compatible with two carrycots, therefore if you would like to use this stroller for twins from birth, you need to use seats with soft nests or two car seats (or a combination of both). The straps of the seat’s 5-point harness are uniquely designed in the form of suspenders, allowing a full range of motion for your children.

if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^

Happy with it

5
  • I was able to walk to the checkout in the shops or to the elevator without any problems.
  • Canopy quite unstable

I was happy with it, it was compact.

  • fits everywhere, in the shop in all doors
  • great to operate
  • heavy
  • long for public transport
  • unsuitable for bad terrain

I bought it as my first stroller. I replaced the bassinets with soft insert cots for the seats. It handled great and I was able to ride on any state of a sidewalk. It's just that it's not suitable for the city as much because of its weight...

Comfortable for me and my children

5
  • The steering wheel - makes it so easy to drive
  • Seat units - can world- and parent-face
  • Large wheels - can go over anything
  • Width - fits any doorway
  • A bit long for an apartment building, but one can manage 😉

A perfect, nice to steer pram. Comfortable for me and my children.

Your questions about the Peg-Pérego Duette (SW)

1)

Can it fit in an Airshell?

Hi, Sarah,

It is very very close, so I would rather say no than yes. The overall dimensions of an Airshell bag for a stroller are L 105 cm W 65 cm H 50 cm, while the folded dimensions of a Duette are L 105 cm W 60 cm H 43 cm. I am afraid you won't fit it, length-wise.

2)

Is the Duette SW compatible with the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio 4-35 car seat?

Hey, Givenher,

I must say this should work, but there's no guarantee it will. I mean, the stroller is officially compatible with the Primo Viaggio SIP 30-30, which is an older model, and the attachment system is slightly different on the base of the car seat itself. The clicking on works the same, but as the attachment system differs a bit, it might be that the fit won't be good (or won't work at all).

If truly needing for your pram to work with the newer Primo Viaggio 4-35 capsule(s), do try it out before purchasing (ie, in a baby store), as this is not a usual combination. Another approach would be to get a pre-loved Primo Viaggio SIP 30-30 (search in classifieds) to have a sure fit that was meant to be for this frame.

What is the price?

Hello, this is an older model of a double pushchair, which is no longer available new. I recommend looking at personal ads or search for used ones, e.g., on eBay.
