10 Misconceptions Your Boss Holds About Best Double Buggy
The best travel double stroller Double Buggy Strollers
If you're expecting twins, or have two young children of different age groups, a double buggy can help you out and about. The best ones are simple to maneuver and handle rough surfaces and kerbs.
These vehicles also come with features like large sun canopies, as well as transparent hoods, and adjustable seats.
1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double
The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest in the Baby Jogger range. It's made for travel and easily fits through normal doors thanks to its slim design. It's also one of the lightest Double Pushchairs For Toddlers buggies that are available, weighing only 14lbs when folded. This makes it perfect for traveling with a newborn and a toddler as you won't be exceeding the luggage allowances of airlines. It can also be folded into the size of the size of a small travel bag so you can store it in the back of your car.
The one-handed, Z-shape fold is easy to fold, it's incredibly compact when you've mastered it. It can take a couple of minutes to fold. Our tester found the auto-lock a bit confusing, and since the handlebar doesn't lock in its position when you push it and it landed on her leg when she used it. She also felt the handlebar was a little shorter than she would like, especially with a big changing bag hanging off of it.
In contrast to other travel buggies that are lightweight that aren't loaded with features and is among the most feature-packed double pram and pushchair strollers available. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately), features multiple recline positions as well as a UV 50+ canopy. You can put an additional bassinet to one or both seats to make this an ideal travel system.
The four wheels made of rubber are ideal for pavements as well as urban terrain, but they're not built for off-roading. They struggled on gravel and long grass and there's not much space between the wheel and the bracket which means that mud could get stuck easily. That being said our tester was still enthralled the buggy and did get up to some pretty hilly terrains.
2. iCandy Orange
The iCandy Orange is a premium double buggy that is the best in style and versatility. It is a must-have for parents who demand the latest in design and quality. It is also stylish and lasts. The Orange has a beautiful light, sleek chassis with a large basket that can easily fit two car seats. It has a luxurious, interchangeable water repellent and ventilated canopy with mesh ventilation. It comes in trend-led colours such as Pistachio, Fossil, Latte and Rose on a Jet Black frame. There's also the option of a built-in ride on the board for older siblings to join in the fun.
The 2021 update comes with several changes, with improved manoeuvrability, and an even larger, better shopping basket with a new bumper bar and leatherette cover. The seats are molded and are very comfortable. They're also adjustable so they can be set to suit siblings' needs. iCandy have created the first ever 'cinema' seating design enabling parents to keep eye contact with both children. They can also be moved to face either parent or to face the world.
It's a heavier tandem double stroller buggy, but it's very easy to use and steer, especially on smooth pavements. It feels stable in both double and single mode and even on sloped ground. It's not as simple to drive on public transport, however, because it requires more than one hand on the handlebar. It is also bulky and can't be stuffed into the standard car boot with the seat attached, but this can be overcome with careful planning. iCandy has included an infant footmuff and a changing bag included in the price, so this is a great value package for new parents.

4. Cybex Gazelle S
If you're expecting twins, this is definitely the stroller for you. It's Cybex first travel system, and it comes with built-in adaptors that allow you to convert from a single stroller into a double. The adaptors on the upper end can move up and down to suit your height whilst the lower ones can be turned around and flipped over making it easy to change from one configuration to another. The Gazelle's seat units also recline into a pretty flat position and come with an extended, large UV 50+ sun canopy which is essential for young ones.

5. Nipper Double V5
The Nipper Double V5 from Out 'n' About is a refreshed version of the award-winning all-terrain buggy. It's designed for siblings or twins and has separate reclined seats, compatibility carrycots and a lightweight double buggy frame for hassle-free manoeuvring on uneven terrain.
The adjustable height handle and rear wheel suspension ensure the most comfortable ride for children up to 22kg. The tough pneumatic tyres, that are easy to clean, give a smooth ride while jogging. The 360-degree swivel wheel is able to be locked to make it easier to manoeuvre around the town. The one-pedal easy lock brake is also easy to use.
Our testers discovered that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to navigate, even on rough terrain or when turning on an area with a lot of traffic. The feature that the seats can be reclined independently was also hugely appreciated.
The hoods were also easy to adjust for sun or wind protection. Our testers did find, however, that they didn't offer an extensive amount of coverage as similar to the Baby Jogger City Mini hoods which is why it's worth packing a rain cover in case of need.
Overall, our testers were impressed with the way the Nipper Double allowed them to take their twins Sydney and Lyla on a variety of adventures, from seeing wildlife in the woods, to running to the park for a playdate. They were also awed by how cosy and spacious the two seats are with plenty of room for toddlers to sprawl out in. Our test participants did not agree, however, that the lack of a parent-facing seating and the inability to use car seats with the buggy was a disadvantage, and they would have liked to see more storage space for shopping and other equipment.
