The Best Double Buggy Strollers
If you're expecting twins, or have two young children of different age groups, a double buggy can help you get out and out and. The best ones are simple to maneuver and can deal with rough surfaces and kerbs.
These vehicles also come with features such as large sun canopies and transparent hoods, and adjustable seats.
1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double
The City Tour 2 Double is the smallest double stroller within the Baby Jogger range. It was designed specifically for travel, and fits through standard doorways easily with its ultra-narrow shape. It's also among the lightest double buggies available with a weight of just 14lbs when folded. This makes it ideal for traveling with a newborn and a toddler because you won't have to exceed the allowances for luggage on airlines. It folds down to the size of a backpack so that you can put it away in the back of your car when not in use.
It's simple to fold the Z-shape by using one hand. Once you're used to it, it's compact and can be folded in a matter of just a few seconds. Our test subject found the auto-lock a bit confusing, and because the handlebar doesn't lock in its position when you push it, it hit her leg when she was using it. She also felt that the handlebar was a bit shorter than she would like particularly with a large changing bag hanging off of it.
Unlike other lightweight travel buggies, this doesn't skimp on features and is one of the most feature-packed double strollers that are available. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately), offers multiple recline positions, and an UV 50+ canopy. You can put the bassinet to either or both seats to make this an ideal travel system.
The four tires made of rubber are ideal for pavements and urban terrain. However, they are not designed for off-roading. They struggled with long grass and gravel and there wasn't enough clearance between the wheel bracket and the wheel which meant that mud could get stuck easily. Our tester loved this buggy and was able to climb beautiful dirt hills.
iCandy Orange

It's a heavier tandem buggy, but it's very easy to use and steer, especially on smooth pavements. It is stable in single and double mode, and can be used on sloped terrain. It's not as easy to drive on public transport, however, as it requires more than one hand on the handlebar. It's also large and will not fit into the standard car boot with the seat on, however this can be overcome by careful planning. iCandy include an infant footmuff, a changing bag and car seat adapters in the price so this is an excellent value package for new parents.

The 360-degree swivel wheel is able to be locked in place to allow for easier maneuvering around the town. The one-pedal lock brake is also easy to use.
Our testers discovered that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to maneuver, even on uneven terrain or turning into a busy road. The fact that the seats can be reclined independently was an enormous hit.

They also appreciated the fact that the hoods could be moved forward and back making them easy to adjust in the sun or for wind protection. They did not offer the same coverage as Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It might be worth carrying an extra rain cover inside the case.
Overall, our testers were impressed with the way Nipper Double let them to take their twins Sydney and Lyla to all sorts of adventures, from seeing wildlife in the woods to running to the park for a playdate. They were also awed by how cozy and spacious the two seats are, with plenty of space for toddlers growing to stretch out in. The lack of parent-facing seating and the inability of using a car seat in this buggy were cited as a disadvantage by our test participants. They would have preferred a larger storage area to store shopping items and other accessories.
