What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy

A compact side-by-side that has an extremely small footprint (for use in public transport and narrow doors). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors) to make the frame more sturdy for children up to 50 lbs.

Budget double with back and front suspension for uneven surfaces. Large storage basket, padded handlebars, and large storage basket.

Size

Double pushchairs are generally larger than single ones, particularly when they are side-by-side buggies such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. This extra width enables them to accommodate larger children without straining their chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out umbrellas with SPF 50 protection, as well as peekaboo windows with swivel lock front wheels to help navigate tight spaces like shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and Double Pram Stroller (Hinson-Henson-3.Thoughtlanes.Net) a clever fold mechanism that is one-handed. The 10-inch wheels are not built for rough terrain, but they can handle city streets and theme park rides well.

In terms of cost, these types of lightweight buggies that are side-by-side are quite affordable.

Weight

The lighter the Double pram Buggy buggy the lighter it is, the easier it is to lift and maneuver. The Joie Evalite Duo, which is the lightest of our Lab tests, is a great option if weight is an issue. It still has plenty of features like an enormous pop-out canopy that has SPF50 and peekaboo window as well as a quick-release folding mechanism that can be stowed flat in a matter of seconds, four-wheel suspension for rough terrain and a swivel wheel on the front that makes it easy to maneuver narrow aisles of supermarkets and stores. Just over PS1,000 is a very affordable twin stroller with car seats. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A double umbrella stroller buggy is a fantastic option for parents with twins, or even a toddler and baby. Narrow tandem buggies are great for navigating narrow spaces, while side by side models ensure that your children are properly cared for and help you to keep an eye on them while you go to the grocery store or the park. Many have a variety of seats so that you can modify the seat as your child grows. Some permit the addition of the option of a car seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can hold two seats or a car seat, and its easy-to-use adaptors permit you to switch from a single seat to a double buggy with car seat in just a few seconds. It comes with a large pop-out canopy sunshade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests, and a peekaboo window in both seats. A standing fold is easy to perform and fast.

The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another alternative. They are great for narrow doors and aisles. They can also easily accommodate twins or a child and a big kid by adding UPPAbaby's"PiggyBack" board (which is sold separately). They offer a generous basket, and come with all the accessories you may require, such as liners and rain covers.

Tandem buggies typically have children sitting side-by-side. This makes them easier to push and more robust on uneven surfaces but they can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. They are larger than a single seater and can be too long to fit through doorways.

Comfort

This is one of the most comfortable lightweight doubles we've test. It features stadium-style seating on both seats, which means your children can take in the view. It also has a large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out, an upholstered toddler seat with an additional RumbleSeat that comes with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests, as well as cups holder for a single parent. The seats can recline independently by pressing a lever under each seat. The testers also appreciate the fact that the straps can be secured and unfastened with one hand. It's also easy to fold, thanks to a twist mechanism on the handle, making it as simple as possible and can be stored with the backrest upright to make it easy to access.

With 30 different configurations (it'll carry twins as well as a toddler and baby or three kids if you add the option of a 'PiggyBack' board) this is a fantastic choice for families who want the flexibility to grow with their child. Its spacious shopping basket and soft suspension mean it's good on roads and in cities too. It is also very affordable. BabyGearLab recommends it to children between the ages of 6 and 6.
