What to Look For in a double buggy travel system Travel Buggy

A compact side-by-side with an extremely small footprint (for use in public transport and narrow doors). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors), to increase the frame's weight capacity for children weighing up to 50lbs.

A fantastic budget double buggy for twins with rear and front suspensions to make light work of uneven surfaces, a massive storage basket and a padded handlebar for parents of various 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 lets them to take on heavier children without straining their chassis. Other features make them stand out: large pop-out canopy that have SPF 50 protection, as well as peekaboo windows, swivel-lock front wheels to help navigate tight spaces like shopping aisles as well as a cup holder that can be used by one parent and a clever fold mechanism that operates with one hand. The 10-inch wheels are not built for rough terrain, but they can handle city streets and theme park rides well.

In terms of price tags these kinds of lightweight buggies, which are side-by-side, are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The lighter the double buggy the more easy it is to lift and maneuver. The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice if you have to be aware of weight, since it's the lightest we've seen in our lab tests but still offers plenty of features, including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and windows that peek out; a quick-release fold that folds flat in just a few minutes; four-wheel suspension to cope with rough terrain; and a swivel front wheel that makes maneuvering narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops simple. Just over PS1,000, it's also a super-affordable stroller. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A good double infant strollers buggy will provide a great deal of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or a baby and a toddler. The narrow tandem buggies can be used to fit into small spaces. Side-by-side models enable you to keep the eye on your children and ensure their safety while you are navigating the grocery store or in the park. Many also have a wide range of seat configurations, so you can adapt to your child's needs as they develop, and some come with the option of adding a ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite duo is a perfect illustration. It can accommodate two seats or a car seat and its adaptors that are easy to use allow you to change from a single to a double in a matter of seconds. It also comes with a large pop-out UPF 50+ canopy sunshade, adjustable leg rests and windows that peek out from both seats and an easy standing fold that is simple and quick to fold with one hand; and a high-quality suspension that can take care of rough terrain.

The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another alternative. They are ideal for narrow aisles and doors. They also can easily accommodate twins or a child and a large kid with the addition of UPPAbaby's ‘PiggyBack’ board (which is sold separately). They come with a large basket, and come with all the accessories you could require, including rain covers and liners.

Tandem buggies typically have your children seated side-by-side, which can make them easier to push and more robust on uneven surfaces but can be tricky to maneuver between kerbs. They are larger than a single seater and can be too long to pass through doorways.

Comfort

One of the more comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested the buggy has seats that are elevated to the level of stadium seats so that your children can have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; padded toddler seat, as well as an add-on RumbleSeat with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests, as well as the cup holder that is single-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 unfastened with one hand. It's also a doddle to fold with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as is possible, and stores by putting the backrest up to make it easy to access.

This is the ideal choice for families looking to expand with their children. It comes in a variety of configurations, including 30. It can accommodate twins with a toddler as well as a baby or three kids when you add a 'PiggyBack board'. Its large shopping basket and soft suspension mean it's good on roads and in cities too. It's also reasonably priced. BabyGearLab recommends this for youngsters up to the age of six.
