What to Look For in a Double Travel BuggyA side-by-side double that has an incredibly compact footprint (for narrow doorways and public transport). Add seats or a carrycot (with adaptors) to expand the frame for kids up to 50lbs per seat.A fantastic budget double with rear and front suspension to take care of uneven surfaces, a huge storage basket and a padded handlebar for parents with different heights.SizeIn general double pushchairs are generally 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 allows them to carry heavier kids without straining the chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out canopies with SPF 50 protection and large peekaboo windows, 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 can be operated by one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme park rides well.These side-by-side buggies are light and have surprisingly low price tags.WeightThe lighter a double buggy is, the easier it will be to lift and manoeuvre. The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option if you need to be aware of weight. It's the lightest of our Lab tests but still offers plenty of features, such as nice-sized pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and windows that peek out and a quick-release fold that can be folded flat in a matter of seconds; four-wheel suspension that can take on rough terrain and an swivel front wheel that makes getting around tight shops and supermarket aisles easy. lightweight double pushchair 's also extremely affordable at more than PS1,000. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.FlexibilityA well-designed double buggy can provide a lot of flexibility, whether you have twins or an infant and a toddler. Narrow tandem buggies can be used to squeeze into tight spaces. Side-by-side models allow you to keep the track of your children and ensure their safety while you are navigating the supermarket or park. There are a variety of seat configurations so you can modify them as your child develops. Some permit the addition of a car seat or ride-on board.The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can be used to support two seats, or even a car-seat. The adaptors let you convert one seat to a double seat in a matter of seconds. It also has a nice-sized pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade canopy, adjustable leg rests and windows that peek out from both seats as well as a standing fold that's simple and quick to fold with just one hand; and a high-quality suspension that can take care of rough terrain.The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. Their slim frames are perfect for negotiating narrow aisles and doors while they are able to accommodate twins, a baby or a big kid thanks to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack board (which you can purchase separately). They provide a spacious basket, and come with all the accessories you may require, including rain covers and liners.Tandem buggies are typically designed with your children seated side-by-side. This can make them more stable and easy to push on uneven surfaces, but they can be a challenge to maneuver around and over kerbs. They have a larger footprint than a single-seater and may be too long to fit through doors.ComfortOne of the more comfortable and lightweight doubles we've tried, this buggy features raised stadium-style seating for both seats, so your kids can have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out; a padded toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests; as well as the cup holder that is single-parent. The seats can recline independently by pressing a lever under each seat. Testers also love how the straps can be fastened or removed with just one hand. It's also a doddle to fold, thanks to a twist mechanism on the handle, making it as easy as could be and also stores with the backrest up to make it easy to access.With 30 different configurations (it'll carry twins, a baby and toddler or three kids if you add the option of a 'PiggyBack' board) this is a fantastic choice for families who are looking to expand with their child. Its large shopping basket and soft suspension mean it's good on streets and in cities too. It's also reasonably priced. BabyGearLab recommends this product for children up to the age of six.
