9 Lessons Your Parents Taught You About Lightweight Double Buggy
A lightweight double buggy (stay with me) For Families With Twins Or Closer Together
If you have twins or two kids close in age, a double stroller could be a game changer. They are wider and have more seating options than single strollers.
They don't have to be heavy or bulky. Some are narrow and fold flat, making it easier to move in tight spaces, or to climb and descend stairs.
Leclerc Influencer
Weighing just 6.6 kg the stroller is extremely light and compact, featuring a clever auto-fold mechanism that takes just minutes to operate. The bassinet is available separately and can be used from the time of birth. It's cabin-approved to fit in overhead bins of flights. Jane, our mum of two testers, said the Influencer Air was easy to push and offered adequate stability. She also loves the fact that the sun canopy can be adjusted to give good coverage for taller kids and has a cup holder for a travel cup. There are additional accessories available like a transparent rain cover as well as a Teddy Footmuff which combines a comfortable teddy sherpa liner with a water-resistant outer fabric for colder weather.
Leclerc's Baby Impactcer XL is a step above its peers thanks to its stunning design, vibrant colors and beautifully constructed frame and fabric materials. Its ultra-fast one-touch folding mechanism means it can be folded and unfolded in 1.5 seconds which makes it perfect for everyday use or extended trips. It comes with a travel case to make it easier.

The iCandy Orange comes with an integrated ride-on board as well as an enormous basket. It can also be configured to form a tandem using the risers available.
It's easy to push, with a good turning circle and soft suspension that bounces lightly over bumps. It's also easy to maneuver even with a toddler in the seat on the front wheels. It's more difficult to navigate over steep curbs because the weight shifts to the front when in double mode, but this is true of most twin buggies.
This update for 2021 has made the back wheels a bit smaller, making them easier to maneuver through tight spaces like doors, shops and public transportation. However, they still feel sturdy and robust with tyre treads which performed well on muddy grass and a muddy road. It's also simple to fold - simply releasing a clip by the back wheels and pulling two levers on the handle pops it up in seconds. When folded, it stands on its own. A sun screen made of mesh is also available for the carrycot and seat. It can be attached within a matter of minutes.

The rear seat isn't able to fully recline. This is a minor issue in a genuinely great double buggy. Another issue is that you cannot add a buggy board, however this isn't uncommon in side-by-side designs.
Overall, the Evalite is a lovely buggy that with some small adjustments could be perfect. The seats are comfortable for children of all age, and it's simple to drive. The handle is cushioned to allow it to be more comfortable to hold, and the wheels are suspended to guarantee the smoothest ride.
