Kerry says this side-by-side is slim enough to get through most doors and accommodate two car seats or carrycots. It comes with a self-standing fold and a handy carry strap for easy schlepping.

It's also extremely lightweight to carry and wheel up/down stairs. The canopies are spaciously sized and have peekaboo windows.

Size

A good-sized shopping basket and front and rear suspension are key elements to look for in a double buggy. You might consider if it is an e-travel system, or if an infant car seat or a carrycot can be added. These are important considerations when you have to take your children on public transport or on long journeys.

If you're looking for a compact double buggy that you can use from the beginning, consider the Leclerc Kooper X2. This side-byside model comes with an intelligent frame that expands in width so that it can accommodate two children. The seats can be reclined and positioned independently. This lets you allow one child to relax and take a nap while the other is observing the surroundings. The seats also come with a large UPF 50+ canopy and a peekaboo feature.

Another great option for infant twins is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side twin umbrella stroller pushchair available and is only 63cm wide, so will fit through most doors. It can take two car seats or one carrycot, and comes with lie-flat seats suitable from birth.

Tandem double buggies, that feature the children sitting side by side, are a popular choice for twins, or parents of a baby and a toddler. However, they tend to have a wider space than single-seaters and may be difficult to maneuver on narrow streets or through doorways.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is a popular tandem that can grow with your family. It has 30 different seating options. It can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or three children if you add iCandy's 'PiggyBack' board (which you can buy separately). It has soft suspension that makes light work of kerbs. It is used in mono or double mode. It is also possible to attach a single stroller to the top of the unit for extra storage space.

Weight

A good double buggy should be lightweight and easy to push. It should come with an ample shopping basket with front and back suspensions to make it easier for the child to traverse more difficult terrain, and also be suitable for twins and siblings of different age groups.

Many double buggies are compact and have frames that can be used to hold infant car seats. They also have branded adaptors that fit popular models by Cybex BeSafe and Maxi-Cosi. These are great choices for those who want to stay clear of separate strollers for your smaller children who have medical needs.

However, they do tend to have a larger footprint than side-by-side buggies, and may be more difficult to maneuver through doors and public transportation. If this is important to you, check the product details to see if there are any alternatives available.

If you're looking to find the tiniest double buggy newborn pushchair available look into the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the thinnest side-byside on the market, measuring only 63cm in width. It can be used to carry twins or an infant and a toddler. It's a sturdy design and a superior function with big air-filled tires that can be used on all terrains, but also happy to zip around town.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2, which can carry twins, one baby and one toddler or two kids, with piggy backboards (which you'll need to purchase separately). It comes with a self-standing fold and carry strap that makes it easy to transport and comes with rear and front suspensions to help you cope with rough terrain. It's heavier than the Joie Evalite Duo, but lighter than the majority of trifold buggies. This is a great choice for older children.

Folding

A good double buggy with car seat buggy needs to be slim for storage, and a suitable option is the Baby Jogger City Select 2. This model is a side-byside and has a smooth fold. The frame expands as you fold, so it's narrower that the standard stroller. This makes it easier to maneuver through doorways and public transportation, as well as reducing the need for an additional vehicle.

It's a great option for parents of twins because it can be used with two seats, and car seat adaptors. It can also accommodate a third child on the 'piggyback board' of the buggy. It also has an array of options, including seats that are elevated that give both kids an overview of their surroundings. There's even a brake on the adjustable handlebar that makes it easier to push it up and down hills.

Mountain Buggy Duet is another good option. It has the most compact footprint side-by-side on the market, measuring 63cm. It is perfect for parents who fret about fitting a double into a door or on public transport. However, it can still handle rough terrain and be a true off-roader. It can carry twins, a baby and toddler or two children who are the same age and each seat reclines independently to make sure the kids are at ease.

Another option is the iCandy Peach, which can be used in mono or tandem mode and can accommodate a car seat/seats or a carrycot and a toddler seat. It's a bit larger than other doubles but it offers excellent manoeuvrability, particularly on smooth surfaces. It's an excellent option for those who are looking for a stylish but practical buggy.

There are a variety of budget double buggies, such as the UPPAbaby vista 2.

It features an easy-to-stand fold, a large canopy that protects children as well as the ability to peek inside. It's also light for a double buggy, and has a larger undercarriage basket for shopping.
