What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy<br /><br />A side-by-side double with small footprint (for narrow entrances and public transport). Add seats or carrycots (with adaptors), to make the frame more sturdy for children weighing up to 50lbs.<br /><br />A great barebones budget double that has rear and front suspension to take care of uneven surfaces, a large storage basket, and a cushioned handlebar for parents with different heights.<br /><br />Size<br /><br /><a href="https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/categories/double-pushchairs">www.pushchairsandprams.uk</a> are generally larger than single ones, particularly when they are side-by-side buggies such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. This extra width allows them to carry heavier children without straining their chassis. They also have other key features that make them stand out, like large pop-out canopy sizes with SPF 50 and windows that peek out; swivel lock front wheels that help navigate tight spots like shopping aisles cup holders for one parent and the clever fold mechanism that can be done one-handed; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't built for rough terrain but can are able to handle city streets and theme parks fairly well.<br /><br />In terms of cost these kinds of lightweight buggies, which are side-by-side, are surprisingly affordable.<br /><br />Weight<br /><br />The heavier a double buggy is the more easy it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option if you need to be mindful of weight, since it's the lightest in our Lab tests. However, it offers a wide range of features, including large pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows as well as a quick-release fold which can be folded flat in a matter of seconds; four-wheel suspension that can cope with rough terrain; and an swivel front wheel that makes maneuvering narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops easy. Just over PS1,000 is a very affordable stroller. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.<br /><br />Flexibility<br /><br /><br /><br />A well-designed double buggy will offer a huge amount of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or an infant and a toddler. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal for navigating tight spaces, while side-by-side models keep your children accounted for and help you to keep your eyes on them as you navigate the supermarket or park. A lot of buggies come with a variety seat configurations so you can adjust them as your child grows. Some even allow you to add the option of a car seat or ride-on board.<br /><br />The Joie Evalite Duo is a great example. It can be used to support two seats, or even a car-seat. The adaptors allow you to change from a single seat to a double seat in a matter of minutes. It also has a nice-sized 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 using just one hand; and a high-quality suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.<br /><br />Tri-fold buggies such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile choice. They are perfect to navigate narrow aisles and doors. They are also able to accommodate twins or a child and a big kid with the addition of UPPAbaby's"PiggyBack" board (which is available separately). The basket is generous and comes with all the extras, such as raincovers and liner.<br /><br />Tandem buggies are generally designed with your children sitting close to each other. This makes them more stable and easy to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be difficult to maneuver over and up kerbs. They typically have a bigger footprint than a single-seater pushchair and may be a bit longer to pass through doorways.<br /><br />Comfort<br /><br />One of the more comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested, this buggy features elevated stadium-style seating for both seats so your children 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; and the cup holder that is single-parent. Testers love the way that the seats recline independently by pressing a lever under each seat, and also say that the straps are simple to unfasten and fasten using just one hand. The handle is easy to turn and makes it easy to fold. It can also be put away by putting the backrest up to make it easy to access.<br /><br />This is a great option for families looking to develop with their children. It comes in 30 different configurations. It can carry twins with a toddler as well as a baby or three kids if you add a 'PiggyBack board'. Its large shopping basket and soft suspension mean it's good on roads and in cities too. It is also very affordable. BabyGearLab recommends this for children ages 0-6. of six.<br /><br />
