Size

nipper double buggy [information from images.google.com.sv] pushchairs are generally larger than single to double stroller ones, especially when they are side-byside buggies, such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good news is that this extra width allows them to accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out canopy that come with SPF 50 protection and peekaboo windows, swivel-lock front wheels to aid in maneuvering tight spaces like shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent, and a clever fold mechanism that is one-handed. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme park rides well.

In terms of cost they are surprisingly affordable. These types of light buggies, which are side-by-side, are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The lighter a double car seat stroller-buggy is the easier it will be to lift and manoeuvre. The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice if you have to be aware of weight. It's the lightest in our Lab tests but still offers plenty of features, including large pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as a quick-release fold which stows flat within seconds; four-wheel suspension that can take on rough terrain and a swivel front wheel that makes navigating tight aisles of supermarkets and shops easy. It's also super-affordable at just over PS1,000. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A double buggy is a great option for parents with twins, or even a toddler and a baby. Buggies with narrow tandems are ideal to fit into narrow 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 park. They also come with a wide range of seat configurations which allows you to alter the seat as your children develop, and some offer the option of adding an extra ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite duo is a great example. It can be used to hold two seats, or a car-seat. The adaptors allow you to change from a single seat ready to grow double stroller a double in merely minutes. It comes with a large pop-out canopy sunshade that has UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests, and a the window that peeks out from both seats. A standing fold is easy to make and quick.

Tri-fold buggies, such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile option. Their slim frames are perfect to navigate narrow aisles and doors and they can comfortably accommodate twins, a baby or an adult due to the addition of UPPAbaby's 'PiggyBack' board (which you buy separately). They offer a generous basket and come with all the accessories you could need, including liners and rain covers.

Tandem buggies usually have your children seated together, which makes them easier to push and more robust on uneven surfaces but can be tricky to maneuver up and down kerbs. They are larger than a one-seater and can be too long to fit through doorways.

Comfort

The handle is easy to turn, making it simple to fold. It also stores by putting the backrest up for easy access.
