Size


Double pushchairs tend to be larger than single ones, particularly when they are side-by-side buggies such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. This extra width enables them to take on heavier children without straining their chassis. Other features make them stand out: large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 protection, as well as peekaboo windows and swivel-lock front wheels that assist in navigating tight spaces such as shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that operates with one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain, but they are able to handle city streets and theme park rides quite well.

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

Weight

The heavier the double buggy the lighter it is, the easier it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo, which is the lightest of our Lab tests, is a great option if weight is an issue. It's got plenty of features like the large pop-out canopy, SPF50 and peekaboo window, a quick-release folding system that can be folded flat in seconds, four-wheel suspension for rough terrain and a swivel wheels on the front, which makes it easy to maneuver narrow aisles of supermarkets and stores. 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 good double buggy can provide a lot of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or two toddlers or a baby. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal to fit into tight spaces, while side-byside models ensure that your children are properly cared for and will help you keep an eye on them as you go to the grocery store or park. Many also have a wide variety of seat configurations which allows you to alter to your child's needs as they grow. Some come with the option of adding a ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can accommodate two seats or a car seat, and its adaptors that are easy to use let you change from single to double in seconds. It comes with a large pop-out canopy shade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests, and a peekaboo window in both seats. A standing fold is easy to perform and fast.

The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. Their slim frames are perfect for negotiating narrow aisles and doors, and they can comfortably accommodate twins or even 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 includes all the accessories, such as raincovers and liners.

double buggy with car seat are generally made with your kids sitting together. This can make them more stable and easier to push on uneven surfaces, but they can be difficult to maneuver up and over kerbs. They usually have a wider footprint than a single-seater pushchair and may be a bit longer to get through doorways.

Comfort

One of the most comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested, this buggy features elevated stadium-style seating for both seats so your children enjoy the view; large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out; a padded toddler seat, as well as an add-on RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests; and the cup holder that is single-parent. The seats recline independently by pressing a lever under each seat. Testers also love how the straps can be fastened or unfastened with one hand. The handle is simple to twist making it easy to fold. It can also be stored with the backrest raised to make it easy to access.

This is the ideal choice for families looking to expand with their children. It is available in 30 different configurations. It can hold twins or a toddler, as well as a baby or three kids if you add a 'PiggyBack board'. The spacious basket and soft suspension make it ideal for kerbs, as as in the city. It's also a great value. BabyGearLab recommends this product for children ages 0-6. of six.
