What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy

A compact side-by-side that has tiny footprint (for use in public transport and narrow doors). Add seats or a carrycot (with adaptors) to increase the size of the frame to accommodate children up to 50lbs per seat.

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

Size


In general double pushchairs are generally wider than single models, especially when they're side-by-side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. The good thing is that this extra width allows them to carry heavier kids without straining the chassis. They also have other important characteristics that make them stand out, including 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 shopping aisles; cup holders for one parent and the clever fold mechanism that can be done by one hand; and 10 inch back wheels that aren't built for rough terrain but can are able to handle city streets and theme parks fairly well.

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

Weight

The lighter a double buggy is the more easy it will be to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option if you need to be aware of weight, since it's the lightest in our Lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, such as nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as a quick-release fold which stows flat within minutes; four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and a swivel front wheel that makes getting around tight shops and supermarket aisles simple. It's also extremely affordable at more than PS1,000. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A well-designed double buggy will provide a great deal of flexibility, whether you have twins or a baby and a toddler. Narrow tandem buggies are great for fitting through tight spaces, while side-by-side models will keep your children well-cared for and will help you keep an eye on them as you go to the grocery store or the park. There are double stroller that come with a range of seat configurations that allow you to modify them as your children grow, and some even have the option to add an extra ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can fit two seats or a car seat, and its adaptors for car seats let you change from single to double in just a few seconds. It also has a nice-sized pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade that can be used as a canopy and adjustable leg rests, as well as windows that peek out from both seats as well as a standing fold that's simple and easy to perform using just one hand; and a high-quality suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.

The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. They are ideal to navigate narrow aisles and doors. They can also easily accommodate twins and a big kid by adding UPPAbaby's"PiggyBack" board (which is available separately). They come with a large basket, and come with all the accessories you may require, including rain covers and liners.

Tandem buggies are usually designed with your children seated side-by-side. This makes them easier and more stable to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be a challenge to maneuver up and over kerbs. They have a bigger footprint than a single-seater and may be too long to pass through doorways.

Comfort

One of the most comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested This buggy comes with elevated stadium-style seating for both seats so that your children can are able to enjoy the view. It comes with large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out; a padded toddler seat, as well as an add-on RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests; and an individual cup holder for parents. The seats can recline independently by pressing a lever under each seat. The testers also appreciate the fact that the straps can be fastened and removed with just one hand. It's also easy to fold, thanks to a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as simple as possible and also stores by putting the backrest up to make it easy to access.

This is the ideal choice for families that want to expand with their children. It comes in 30 different configurations. It can carry twins, a toddler and a baby or three kids with a 'PiggyBack board'. The spacious basket and the soft suspension makes it suitable for kerbs, as well as for use in cities. It's also reasonably priced. BabyGearLab recommends this product for children ages 0-6. of six.
