What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy

A compact side-byside with an extremely small footprint (for use in public transport and narrow doors). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors) to increase the frame's weight capacity for children weighing up to 50lbs.

A budget-friendly, basic double buggy side by side that has rear and front suspensions to make light work of uneven surfaces, a massive storage basket and padded handlebar for parents with different heights.

Size

In general double pushchairs are larger than single models - especially when they're side-by-side buggies like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. The good news is that this extra width enables them to handle heavier children without straining the chassis. They also have other important features that make them stand out, like large pop-out canopy sizes with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and swivel lock front wheels which help navigate narrow spots such as aisles for shopping; cups with a single parent holder, the clever fold mechanism that can be done one-handed; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't designed for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme parks fairly well.

These side-by-side buggies are light and are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The heavier the double buggy the lighter it is, the easier it is to lift and maneuver. The Joie Evalite Duo is a good choice if you need to be mindful of weight. It's the lightest in our Lab tests but still offers plenty of features, including large pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and a quick-release fold that stows flat within minutes; four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and an adjustable front wheel that makes maneuvering tight shops and supermarket aisles simple. With a price of just over P1,000 is a very affordable stroller. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A double buggy is a great option for parents with twins or even a toddler and baby. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal for navigating tight spaces, while side-by-side models keep your children accounted for and allow you to keep an eye on them while you go to the grocery store or the park. Many have a variety of seat configurations so you can alter them as your child develops. Some even permit the addition of a car seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite duo is a perfect illustration. It can hold two seats or a car seat, and its adaptors that are easy to use allow you to change from a single to a double in seconds. It also comes with a spacious pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade that can be used as a canopy with adjustable leg rests as well as peekaboo windows on both seats as well as the standing fold is quick and easy to do using just one hand; and a premium suspension that can take care of rough terrain.

Tri-fold buggies like the iCandy Peach are another versatile choice. Their slim frames are ideal to navigate narrow aisles and doors and they can comfortably accommodate twins or even a baby and an adult due to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack' board (which you can purchase separately). They provide a spacious basket and include All Terrain Double Stroller the accessories you may need, including rain covers and liners.

Tandem buggies usually have your children sitting side-by-side. This makes them easier to push and more sturdy on uneven surfaces, but they can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. They usually have a wider footprint than a single-seater stroller and may be a bit too long ready to grow double stroller get through doorways.

Comfort

One of the most comfortable, lightweight doubles we've tested This buggy comes with elevated stadium-style seating for both seats so your children have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows; padded toddler seat and an additional RumbleSeat, which has an adjustable leg and foot rests, as well as the cup holder that is single-parent. Testers are awestruck by how the seats recline individually by squeezing the levers under each seat, and also say that the straps are easy to unfasten and fasten with just one hand. The handle is easy to turn and makes it easy to fold. It can also be put away with the backrest up to make it easy to access.

This is a great option for families looking to develop with their children. It comes in a variety of configurations, including 30. It can accommodate twins with a toddler as well as three children if you add a 'PiggyBack board'. The large basket and soft suspension makes it suitable for kerbs as well as in the city. It's also very well priced. BabyGearLab recommends it for kids between the ages of 6 and 6.
