If you're expecting twins, or have two children of different age groups, a double buggy can help you get out and out and. The best double buggy is simple to maneuver and is able to take on rough surfaces.
They also come with features such as large sun canopies as well as hoods that are transparent and seats that are adjustable.
1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double
The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest of the Baby Jogger range. It is designed to travel and fits through standard doors easily due to its slim and compact design. It's also one the lightest double buggies on the market that weighs just 14lbs when folded. This makes it perfect for flying with a toddler and newborn as you won't be exceeding the allowances for luggage on airlines. It can also be folded up into the size of the size of a small travel bag which means you can put it in the back seat of your car.
The one-handed, Z-shape fold is a breeze and it's extremely compact once you get the hang of it. It takes a few seconds to unfold. Our tester found the auto lock a bit difficult to understand, and also because the handlebar doesn't lock into its position when you push it to the side, it struck her leg when she was using it. She also believed that the handlebar was on the short side. This is especially true when a large changing bag is hanging from it.
In contrast to other travel buggies that are lightweight, this doesn't skimp on features and is among the most comprehensive double strollers on the market. It is compatible with two carrycots (available separately), features multiple recline positions, and comes with an UV 50+ canopy. You can put an additional bassinet to one or both seats to make it a travel system.
The four rubber composite wheels are perfect for pavements and urban terrain however, they're not designed for off-roading. They slid on long grass and gravel, and there isn't much space between the wheel and bracket which means that mud could get stuck easily. Our tester loved this buggy and was able to climb beautiful hillocks that were muddy.

They can be adjusted so that they face either the parent or the world.
It's a heavier tandem buggie but it's easy to use and drive especially on smooth pavements. It's stable in double and single mode, and even on sloping ground. It is not as easy to use on public transport because it requires two hands on the handlebar. It's also heavy and won't fit in the standard car boot with the seat attached, but this can be overcome by careful planning. iCandy include the footmuff, changing bag and car seat adapters in the price so this is an excellent value bundle for new parents.

If you're expecting twins, this is the stroller you need. It's the Cybex first travel system and it has built-in adaptors that make it simple to transform from one stroller to a double.

The durable pneumatic tyres, which are easy to clean, give a smooth ride while jogging. The 360 swivel wheel on the front can be locked in place for easier manoeuvring around town, and the one pedal brake is easy to use.
Our testers found that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to navigate, even on bumpy terrain or when turning on a busy road. They were also impressed by the fact that both seats recline independently. This means they can be adjusted to meet the individual's needs. This is ideal for napping.
The hoods were also easy to adjust for sun or wind protection. They didn't offer the same amount of coverage as the Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It's worth having an extra rain cover inside the case.
Overall, our testers were impressed with the way that the Nipper Double allowed them to take their twin girls Sydney and Lyla to all sorts of adventures, from seeing wildlife in the woods to rushing to the park for a quick playdate. They were also impressed by how comfortable and spacious the two seats are, with plenty of room for growing toddlers to sprawl out in. The lack of parent facing seating and the inability to use car seat with this buggy were noted as a disadvantage by our test participants. They would have preferred a larger storage area for shopping and other equipment.
