Size
In general, double pushchairs - www.daoban.org - are wider than single models - particularly when they're side-by-side buggies like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. This extra width lets them to carry heavier children without straining their chassis. They also come with other key characteristics that make them stand out, like generously-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows as well as swivel lock front tires that make it easier to navigate tight areas such as aisles for shopping; a one-parent cup holder and the clever fold mechanism that is able to be completed with one hand; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't built for tough terrain but manage city streets and theme parks fairly well.
In terms of price tags they are surprisingly affordable. These types of light buggies that are side-by-side are quite affordable.
Weight
The heavier a double buggy is the easier it will be to lift and manoeuvre. The Joie Evalite Duo is a good choice if you need to be mindful of weight, as it's the lightest we've seen in our lab tests. However, it offers a wide range of features, including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows as well as a quick-release fold which stows flat within seconds; four-wheel suspension to cope with rough terrain; and an adjustable front wheel that makes navigating tight shops and supermarket aisles easy. It's also super-affordable at just more than PS1,000. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.
Flexibility
A good double buggy will offer a huge amount of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or a baby and a toddler. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal to fit into tight spaces, while side-byside models ensure that your children are properly cared twin strollers for newborns and will help you keep an eye on them as you travel around the supermarket or park. Many also have a wide range of seat configurations, so you can adapt the seat as your children develop, and some have the option to add a ride-on board or car seat.
The Joie Evalite duo is an excellent example. It can accommodate two seats or a car seat and its adaptors that are easy to use permit you to switch from single to lightweight double pushchair in just a few seconds. It has a large pop-out canopy shade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests and peekaboo window in both seats. A standing fold is simple to do and quick.
The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. They are great to navigate narrow aisles and doors. They can also easily accommodate twins or a child and a larger child with the addition of UPPAbaby’s ‘PiggyBack’ board (which is available separately). They come with a large basket, and come with all the accessories you may require, such as liners and rain covers.
Tandem buggies are usually made with your kids sitting side-by-side. This makes them more stable and easier to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be a challenge to maneuver up and over kerbs. They typically have a larger footprint than a single-seater pushchair, and may be a bit too long to get through doorways.
