Size

Double pushchairs are generally larger than single ones, particularly when they are side-by-side buggies like the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good news is that this extra width enables them to accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. They also come with other key characteristics that make them stand out, such as large pop-out canopy sizes with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and swivel lock front wheels which help navigate narrow spots such as aisles for shopping; cups with a single parent holder, a smart fold mechanism that can be operated with one hand; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't designed for rough terrain but can are able to handle city streets and theme parks quite well.

These best lightweight double stroller side-by-side buggies are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The heavier a double running 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 canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows; a quick-release fold that can be folded flat in a matter of minutes; four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and an swivel front wheel that makes maneuvering tight aisles of supermarkets and shops simple. It's also affordable at just over a thousand dollars. 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 baby and toddler. Narrow tandem buggies can be used to squeeze through small spaces. Side-by-side models enable you to keep track of your children and ensure their safety while you go to the park or shopping. There are a variety of seating configurations, so you can alter them as your child develops. Some allow you to add an automobile seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect 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 double running stroller in a matter of seconds. It also comes with a large pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade canopy and adjustable leg rests, as well as peekaboo windows on both seats and the standing fold is quick and easy to do with just one hand; and a premium suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.

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

tandem double stroller buggies typically have children seated together, which can make them easier to push and more stable on uneven surfaces however they can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. They typically have a bigger footprint than a single-seater stroller and may be a bit too long to get through doorways.

Comfort

One of the most comfortable, lightweight doubles we've tested the buggy has raised stadium-style seating for both seats, so your kids can are able to enjoy the view. It comes with nice-sized UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out; a padded toddler seat and an additional RumbleSeat with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests; as well as a single-parent cup holder. The seats recline independently by pressing a lever underneath each seat. Testers love the fact that the straps can be fastened and unfastened with one hand. It's also easy to fold with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as could be, and stores with the backrest up to make it easy to access.

With 30 different configurations (it'll accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby or three kids with the addition of a 'PiggyBack' Board) this is a fantastic choice for families who want to be able to grow with their child. Its spacious shopping basket and soft suspension make it suitable on kerbs and in the city too. It's also reasonably priced. BabyGearLab recommends this product for children ages 0-6. of six.
