A Brief History Of Double Travel Buggy History Of Double Travel Buggy
What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy
A side-byside double buggy side by side with an incredibly compact footprint (for narrow doorways and on public transport). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors), to increase the frame's capacity for weight for children up to 50 lbs.
A budget-friendly, basic double to Single buggy that has rear and front suspension to make light work of uneven surfaces, a massive 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. This extra width allows them to take on heavier children without straining their chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 protection and large peekaboo windows and swivel-lock front wheels that assist in navigating tight spaces such as shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that can be operated by one hand. The 10-inch wheels are not built for rough terrain, but they are able to handle city streets and theme park rides quite well.
These lightweight side-by-side buggies come with surprisingly low prices.
Weight
The lighter a double buggy 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 we've seen in our lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, such as nice-sized pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and windows that peek out; a quick-release fold that stows flat within minutes; four-wheel suspension to take on rough terrain and an adjustable front wheel that makes maneuvering narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops easy. With a price of just over P1,000 It's also a great value stroller. 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 toddler and baby. The narrow tandem buggies are a great way to squeeze into tight spaces. Side-by-side models enable you to keep track of your children and ensure their safety while you go to the park or shopping. There are many buggies that come with a selection of seating options, so you can adapt to your child's needs as they grow, and some even have the option to add a ride-on board or car seat.
The Joie Evalite Duo is a perfect example. It can be used to hold two seats, or even a car seat. The adaptors allow you to convert a single seat to a double buggy travel system in just minutes. It also comes with a spacious pop-out UPF 50+ canopy sunshade, adjustable leg rests and peekaboo windows on both seats as well as an easy standing fold that is simple and quick to fold with just one second hand double buggy; and a premium suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.
The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. They are perfect for narrow doors and aisles. They are also able to accommodate twins and a larger child with the addition of UPPAbaby’s ‘PiggyBack’ board (which is sold separately). They come with a large basket and come with all terrain double stroller the accessories you may require, such as rain covers and liners.
Tandem buggies are usually made with your kids sitting close to each other. This can make them more stable and easy to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be a challenge to maneuver over and up kerbs. They typically have a bigger footprint than a single-seater pushchair twin, and can be a bit long to pass through doors.
Comfort
One of the more comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested the buggy has raised stadium-style seating for both seats, so your kids can enjoy the view; nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; a padded toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat, which has an adjustable leg and foot rests, as well as an individual cup holder for parents. Testers are awestruck by the way that the seats recline by pushing an adjustable lever underneath each seat, and also say that the straps are simple to fasten and unfasten using just one hand. It's also simple to fold with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as is possible and also stores with the backrest upright for easy 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 great option for families that are looking to expand with their child. The large basket and soft suspension make it suitable for kerbs, as well as for use in cities. It's also a great value. BabyGearLab recommends it for children between the ages of 6 and 6.
