Why No One Cares About Double Travel Buggy
What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy
A side-by-side double with an incredibly compact footprint (for narrow entrances and on public transport). Add carrycots or seats (with adaptors) to increase the frame's weight capacity for children up to 50 lbs.

Size
Double pushchairs are typically larger than single ones, particularly when they are side-byside buggies, such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good thing is that this extra width enables them to carry heavier kids without straining the chassis. Other features make them stand out: large pop-out canopy that have SPF 50 protection and peekaboo windows and swivel-lock front wheels that help navigate tight spaces like shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that is one-handed. The 10-inch wheels are not built for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme park rides well.
In terms of price tags these kinds of lightweight buggies, which are side-by-side, are surprisingly affordable.
Weight
The heavier a double buggy is, the easier it will be to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo, which is the lightest of our Lab tests, is an excellent option for those who are concerned about weight. issue. It still has many features, including an enormous pop-out canopy that has SPF50 and peekaboo window, a quick-release folding system that can be stowed flat in a matter of seconds with four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and a swivel wheels at the front that makes it easy to maneuver narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops. With a price of just over P1,000 is a very affordable stroller. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.
Flexibility
A double buggy that is well-designed can provide a lot of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or an infant and a toddler. The narrow tandem buggies are ideal for fitting through tight spaces, while side-byside models will keep your children well-cared for and help you to keep an eye on them while you travel around the supermarket or park. They also come with a wide range of seat configurations which allows you to alter to your child's needs as they grow. Some have the option to add a ride-on or car seat.
The Joie Evalite duo is an excellent illustration. It can hold two seats or a car seat, and its adaptors that are easy to use allow you to change from single to double in seconds. It comes with a huge pop-out canopy shade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests and peekaboo window in both seats. A standing fold is simple to do and quick.
The iCandy Peach tri-fold buggy is another option. They are perfect for navigating narrow aisles and doors. They can also easily 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 include all the accessories you may need, including rain covers and liners.
Tandem buggies are typically designed with your children seated close to each other. This can make 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 long to fit through doorways.
Comfort
One of the more comfortable and lightweight doubles we've tried the buggy has elevated stadium-style seating for both seats, so your kids can enjoy the view; large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out; a padded toddler seat and an additional RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests, as well as an individual cup holder for parents. The seats can recline independently by pressing a lever beneath each seat. Testers love the fact that the straps can be secured and unfastened in one hand. It's also easy to fold, thanks to a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as is possible and can be stored by putting the backrest up for easy access.
This is the perfect choice for families looking to grow with their children. It is available in a variety of configurations, including 30. It can accommodate twins with a toddler as well as a baby or three kids with a 'PiggyBack board'. The large basket and soft suspension makes it suitable for kerbs as well in the city. It's also a great value. BabyGearLab recommends it for kids between the ages of 6 and 6.
