What to Look For in a Double Travel twin buggy

A side-byside double infant strollers with an incredibly compact footprint (for narrow doors and on public transport). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors) to increase the frame's weight capacity for children up to 50 pounds.

A fantastic budget double pram and pushchair that has rear and front suspension to make light work of uneven surfaces, a huge storage basket, and a cushioned handlebar for parents of different heights.

Size

In general, double pushchairs are wider than single models, especially when they're side by side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. The good thing is that this extra width enables them to accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 protection and peekaboo windows with swivel lock front wheels to help navigate tight spaces like shopping aisles and a cup holder for one parent and a clever fold mechanism that operates with one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme park rides quite well.

These lightweight side-by-side buggies are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The heavier the double pushchairs buggy the lighter it is, the easier it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice if you have to be aware of weight, as it's the lightest of our Lab tests. However, it offers a wide range of features, including nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and windows that peek out; a quick-release fold that folds flat in just a few seconds; four-wheel suspension that can cope with rough terrain; and an adjustable front wheel that makes maneuvering narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops simple. It's also super-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 fantastic option for parents with twins, or even a baby and toddler. Narrow tandem buggies can be used to fit into small spaces. Side-by-side models allow you to keep the track of your children and ensure their safety while you go to the grocery store or in the park. A lot of buggies come with a variety seating configurations, so you can alter the seat as your child grows. Some allow you to add a car seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can accommodate two seats or a car seat, and its easy-to-use adaptors permit you to switch from single to double in a matter of seconds. It also has a nice-sized pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade that can be used as a canopy and adjustable leg rests, as well as windows that peek out from both seats and an easy standing fold that is quick and easy to do with one hand; and a high-quality suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.

Tri-fold buggies, such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile option. They are great for narrow doors and aisles. They are also able to accommodate twins or a child and a big kid with the addition of UPPAbaby's ‘PiggyBack’ board (which is sold separately). They provide a spacious basket and include all the extras you might require, such as liners and rain covers.

Tandem buggies usually have your children seated together, which can make them easier to push and more robust on uneven surfaces however they can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. They usually have a wider footprint than a single-seater twin pushchair from birth, and may be a bit longer to get through doors.

Comfort

One of the more comfortable and lightweight doubles we've tried This buggy comes with raised stadium-style seating for both seats, so your kids can have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; a padded toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests; and a single-parent cup holder. Testers are awestruck by the way the seats recline individually by squeezing the levers under each seat, and also say that the straps are easy to secure and remove 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 by putting the backrest up to make it easy to access.

This is a great option for families that want to develop with their children. It is available in 30 different configurations. It can accommodate twins or a toddler, as well as three children when you add the 'PiggyBack board'. The spacious basket and the soft suspension makes it suitable for kerbs, as as in the city. It's also reasonably priced. BabyGearLab recommends this for children up to the age of six.
