What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy

A side-by-side double jogging stroller that has a compact twin stroller footprint (for narrow entrances and on public transport). Add seats or a carrycot (with adaptors) to increase the size of the frame to accommodate children up to 50 pounds per seat.

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

Size

In general, double buggy travel system pushchairs are wider 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 accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out umbrellas that have SPF 50 protection and large peekaboo windows, swivel-lock front wheels to assist in navigating tight spaces such as shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent, and a clever fold mechanism that operates with one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain, but they are able to handle city streets and theme park rides well.

These lightweight side-by-side buggies have surprisingly low price tags.

Weight

The heavier a double running buggy buggy is the easier it is to lift and manoeuvre. The Joie Evalite Duo, which is the lightest of our Lab tests, is a great option if weight is an issue. It's got plenty of features including a large pop-out canopy with SPF50 and a peekaboo windows as well as a quick-release folding mechanism that can be stowed flat in seconds with four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and a swivel wheel on the front that makes it easy to maneuver narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops. Just over PS1,000 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 fantastic option for parents with twins or even a toddler and a baby. Narrow tandem buggies are great for navigating tight spaces, while side-byside models ensure that your children are properly cared for and will help you keep an eye on them as you go to the grocery store or the park. Many have a variety of seating configurations, so you can alter them as your child develops. Some permit the addition of a car seat or ride-on board.

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

The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. Their slim frames are perfect for negotiating narrow doors and aisles, while they can easily hold twins or even a baby and even a large child thanks to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack board (which you can purchase separately). The basket is spacious and includes all the accessories including raincovers and liner.

Tandem buggies usually have your children seated together, which makes them easier to push and more robust on uneven surfaces however they can be difficult to maneuver between kerbs. They have a larger footprint than a single-seater and may be too big to fit through doors.

Comfort

This is one of the most comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested. It features stadium-style seating on both seats, ensuring that your children can take in the view. It also has an enormous UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo window, a padded toddler seat with an additional RumbleSeat that comes with built-in adjustable foot and leg rests as well as an integrated cup holder for one parent. The seats recline independently by pressing a lever beneath each seat. The testers also appreciate the fact that the straps can be fastened or removed with just one hand. The handle is simple to twist making it easy to fold. It also stores with the backrest raised for easy access.

With 30 different configurations (it'll accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby or three kids if you add the option of a 'PiggyBack' board) it's a great option for families that are looking to expand with their child. Its spacious shopping basket and soft suspension makes it ideal on roads and in cities too. It's also a great value. BabyGearLab recommends it for kids from 6 to 12 years old.
