What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy

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

A fantastic budget double with rear and front suspension to make light work of uneven surfaces, a huge storage basket and padded handlebar for parents with different heights.

Size

In general, double pushchairs are wider than single models, especially when they're side by side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. This extra width enables them to carry heavier children without straining their chassis. They also have other key characteristics that make them stand out, such as large pop-out canopy sizes with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as swivel lock front tires that make it easier to navigate tight areas like shopping aisles a one-parent cup holder and a smart fold mechanism that is able to be completed one-handed; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't built for tough terrain but manage city streets and theme parks fairly well.

In terms of cost 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 is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice if you have to be aware of weight, since it's the lightest of our Lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, including large pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as a quick-release fold which folds flat in just a few seconds; four-wheel suspension that can cope with rough terrain; and an adjustable front wheel that makes maneuvering tight shops and supermarket aisles effortless. 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 pushchairs for narrow spaces buggy is a great option for parents with twins or even a baby and toddler. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal for navigating tight spaces, while side-byside models will keep your children well-cared for and allow you to keep an eye on them while you go to the grocery store or the park. They also come with a wide selection of seating options which allows you to alter the seat as your children grow, and some even come with the option of adding a ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a great example. It can hold two seats or a car seat and its adaptors that are easy to use permit you to switch from a single to a thule double stroller in just a few seconds. It has a large pop-out canopy shade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests, and a windows that peek out in both seats. A standing fold is easy to perform and fast.

Tri-fold buggies, such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile choice. Their slim frames are perfect for negotiating narrow doors and aisles, and they can comfortably accommodate twins, a baby or even a large child thanks to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack' board (which you can purchase separately). The basket is generous and comes with all the extras, such as raincovers and liners.

Tandem buggies are generally designed with your children seated side-by-side. This can make them easier and more stable to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be a challenge to maneuver up and over kerbs. They typically have a bigger footprint than a single-seater twin pushchair from birth, and may be a bit longer to get through doors.

Comfort

This is among the most comfortable, lightweight doubles we've tested. It has stadium-style seating on both seats, so your children can take in the view. It also has an enormous UPF 50+ canopy with a the peek-a-boo window, and an upholstered toddler seat with an RumbleSeat with built-in adjustable foot and leg rests, as well as a cup holder for one parent. Testers love the way that the seats recline individually by squeezing an adjustable lever underneath each seat. They also note that the straps are easy to unfasten and fasten with one hand. It's also simple to fold, with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as could be and can be stored with the backrest up to make it easy to access.

This is the perfect choice for families looking to grow with their children. It comes in a variety of configurations, including 30. It can hold twins or a toddler, as well as three children with a 'PiggyBack board'. The spacious basket and the soft suspension makes it suitable for kerbs as well as in the city. It is also very affordable. BabyGearLab recommends it for children from 6 to 12 years old.
