These vehicles also have features like large sun canopies and transparent hoods, and adjustable seats.
1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double
The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest of the Baby Jogger range. It is designed for travel, and can fit through doors that are standard with its slim and compact design. It's also one the lightest double buggies on the market that weighs just 14lbs when folded. It's perfect for trips with a toddler and infant because you won't be able to over-exceed airline baggage allowances. It also folds up to the size of a backpack and can be tucked away in the back of your car when not in use.
It's easy to fold the Z-shape by using one hand. Once you get used to it, it's compact and only takes seconds. Our tester found the auto-lock a little difficult to understand, and also because the handlebar doesn't lock into the position you push it into to the side by side double stroller, it struck her leg when she used it. She also felt the handlebar was a little shorter than she would like and especially with the large changing bag hanging from it.
This double stroller isn't as light as other travel buggies. It has a full array of features and is one the most versatile double strollers available on the market. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately) and has multiple recline positions and a UV 50+ canopy. You can even add a bassinet to one or both seats, and turn it into a travel system.
The four composite wheels made of rubber are ideal for pavements as well as urban terrain, but they're not built for off-roading - they struggled on long grass and gravel and there's a lack of space between the wheel and the bracket so mud got stuck easily. However our testers still enjoyed the buggy and did climb some beautiful muddy hills.

They can also be repositioned to face either parent or towards the world.
It's a heavier buggie in tandem, however, it's very easy to operate and drive, especially on smooth pavements. It is stable in single and cheap double stroller mode, and can be used on sloping ground. It's not as easy to drive on public transport, however, as it requires more than one hand to grip the handlebar. It's also large and won't fit in a standard car boot without the seat in place, but this can be overcome by careful planning. iCandy have included an infant footmuff, a changing bag and car seat adapters in the price, so it's an excellent value bundle for new parents.

Our testers found that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to maneuver, even on uneven terrain or when turning in an area with a lot of traffic. The possibility that the seats could be reclined independently was also hugely appreciated.
They also loved that the hoods were able to be moved forward and back making them easy to adjust in the sun or for wind protection. Our testers did discover, however, that they didn't offer the same amount of coverage as something like the Baby Jogger City Mini hoods, so it might be worthwhile to pack a rain cover to be prepared in the event of.
Overall, our test participants loved the way Nipper Double let them to take their twins Sydney and Lyla on a variety of adventures, from seeing wildlife in the woods to rush to the park for a playdate. The testers were also awed by how comfortable and spacious the two seats are. There is plenty of room for toddlers who are growing. The lack of parent facing seating and the inability of using a car seat in this buggy were cited as a drawback by our test participants. They would have wanted a bigger storage area for shopping and other equipment.
