Size

In general double buggy Newborn pushchairs are larger than single models - particularly when they're side by side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. The good news is that this extra width allows them to carry heavier kids without straining the chassis. Other features make them stand out: large pop-out canopy that come with SPF 50 protection and peekaboo windows and swivel-lock front wheels that aid in maneuvering tight spaces like shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that can be operated by one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't designed for rough terrain, but they can handle city streets and theme park rides well.

These side-by-side buggies are light and have surprisingly low price tags.

Weight

The lighter the smallest double buggy buggy, the easier it is to lift and maneuver. 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 that come with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and a quick-release fold that folds flat in just a few minutes; four-wheel suspension to take on rough terrain and an adjustable front wheel that makes getting around tight aisles of supermarkets and shops easy. It's priced at just over $1000 is a very affordable stroller double. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A good double pushchair sale buggy will offer a huge amount of flexibility, whether you have twins or a baby and a toddler. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal for fitting through tight spaces, while side-byside models ensure that your children are properly cared for and will help you keep your eyes on them as you travel around the supermarket or the park. There are many buggies that come with a range of seat configurations that allow you to modify the seat as your children grow, and some even have the option to add an extra ride-on board or car seat.

The Joie Evalite duo is a perfect illustration. It can fit two seats or a car seat and its adaptors for car seats let you change from a single seat to a 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 make and quick.

Tri-fold buggies, such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile option. They are great to navigate narrow aisles and doors. They can also easily accommodate twins or a child and a large kid with the addition of UPPAbaby’s"PiggyBack" board (which is sold separately). The basket is generous and includes all the accessories like raincovers and liners.

Tandem buggies are usually made with your kids sitting together. This makes them more stable and easier to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be difficult to maneuver over and up kerbs. They have a bigger footprint than a single seater and can be too large to pass through doorways.

Comfort

One of the more comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested the buggy has seats that are elevated to the level of stadium seats so your children have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; a padded toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests; and a single-parent cup holder. Testers love how the seats recline individually by squeezing an adjustable lever underneath each seat, and say that the straps are easy to fasten and unfasten using just one hand. It's also a doddle to fold, with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as is possible, and stores by putting the backrest up for easy access.

With 30 different configurations (it'll accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby or three kids with the addition of a 'PiggyBack' board) it's a great option for families who are looking to expand with their child. Its large shopping basket and soft suspension mean it's good on kerbs and in the city too. It is also very affordable. BabyGearLab recommends it to children from 6 to 12 years old.
