1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double
The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest model in the Baby Jogger range. It's designed to travel and easily fits through normal doors thanks to its slim design, it's also one of the most compact double stroller lightweight double to single buggy buggies on the market, weighing just 14lbs when folded. It's perfect for traveling with a newborn and toddler since you won't over-exceed airline baggage allowances. It can also be folded into a small travel bag, which means you can put it in the back seat of your car.
It's easy to fold the Z-shape using one hand. Once you've gotten used to it, it's compact double buggy and can be folded in a matter of seconds. However our tester found the auto lock a little confusing. As the handlebar wasn't locked into place when you press it, it struck her legs when she used it. She also thought that the handlebar was on the short side. This is especially the case when a large bag for changing hangs from it.
This double buggy travel System stroller isn't as light as other buggies. It has a full variety of features, and is one the most versatile double strollers available on the market. It's compatible with two carrycots (available separately), features multiple recline positions, and comes with an UV 50+ canopy. You can also add an additional bassinet to one or both seats, and turn it into a travel set-up.
The four wheels made of rubber are ideal for pavements and urban terrain however, they're not designed for off-roading. They struggled with long grass and gravel and there's not much space between the wheel and the bracket so mud was able to get stuck easily. However our tester was still enthralled riding this buggy, and it did get up to some beautiful dirt hills.
2. iCandy Orange

This 2021 update has some changes, with improved manoeuvrability, and an even bigger, better shopping basket with a re-designed bumper bar and leatherette cover. The seats are moulded and are really comfortable. They're also adjustable so that they can be set to suit the needs of siblings. iCandy has introduced the first "cinema seating" design that allows parents to keep eye contact with their children. They can be adjusted to face either the parent or the world.
It's a heavier buggie in tandem, however, it's very easy to operate and drive particularly on smooth roads. It feels stable in both single and double mode and even on sloping ground. It's not as simple to drive on public transportation, however, since it requires more than one hand on the handlebar. It's also heavy and will not fit into the standard car boot with the seat on, however this can be overcome by careful planning. iCandy has included a footmuff and changing bag in the price, so this is a great value package for new parents.

5. Nipper Double V5
The Nipper Double V5 from Out 'n' About is an updated version of the award-winning all-terrain buggie. It was designed for twins or siblings, and comes with recliner chairs that are independent, compatible with carrycots and a lightweight framework for easy manoeuvrability on bumpy terrain.
The adjustable handle's height and rear wheel suspension provide a comfortable ride for kids up to 22kg. The sturdy pneumatic tyres that are easy to clean, also offer a smooth ride when jogging. The 360 swivel front wheel can be locked into place for easier manoeuvring around town, and the one pedal brake is easy to use.
Our testers found that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to maneuver, even on uneven terrain or when turning in the middle of a busy road. They were also awed by the fact that both seats recline independently, meaning they can be adjusted to suit your individual preferences - perfect for napping.
They also loved the fact that the hoods could be moved back and forward and back, making them much easier to adjust in the sun or to provide wind protection. They didn't provide the same coverage as Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It's probably worth carrying an extra rain cover in case.
Overall, our test participants were impressed with the Nipper double's ability to let them take their twin daughters Sydney and Lyla to all kinds of adventures. From seeing wildlife in the forest to rushing to a park to play with their friends they were thrilled. Our testers were also amazed by how comfortable and spacious the two seats are. There's plenty of room to stretch out for growing toddlers. Our testers did mention that the absence of parent-facing seating and the inability of using car seats with this buggy was a drawback and they would like to have seen more storage space for shopping and other gear.
