What to Look For in a Double Travel Buggy
A side-by-side double that has small footprint (for narrow doors and public transport). Add seats or carrycots (with adaptors), to increase the frame's capacity for weight for children up to 50 lbs.
Budget double with front and back suspension for uneven surfaces. Large storage basket, padded handlebars and large storage basket.
Size
In general double pushchairs are larger than single models - particularly when they're side-by-side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. This extra width allows them to carry heavier children without straining their chassis. They also come with other key features that make them stand out, such as large pop-out canopy sizes with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as swivel lock front tires which help navigate narrow spots such as aisles for shopping; cups with a single parent holder, a smart fold mechanism that can be operated with one hand; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't built for rough terrain but can handle city streets and theme parks fairly well.
In terms of price tags, these types of lightweight buggies that are side-by-side are quite affordable.
Weight
The lighter a double-buggy is, the easier it will be to move and lift. double infant strollers is a excellent choice if you have to be aware of weight, since it's the lightest we've seen in our lab tests. However, it offers a wide range of features, including large pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows as well as a quick-release fold which can be folded flat in a matter of minutes; four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and an adjustable front wheel that makes maneuvering tight aisles of supermarkets and shops simple. It's also affordable at just over a thousand dollars. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.
Flexibility
A well-designed double buggy will provide a great deal of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or an infant and a toddler. Narrow tandem buggies are great to fit into tight spaces, while side-byside models keep your children accounted for and will help you keep your eyes on them as you go to the grocery store or park. They also come with a wide selection of seating options, so you can adapt the seat as your children grow. Some have the option to add a ride-on or car seat.
The Joie Evalite duo is an excellent illustration. It can be used to support two seats, or a car-seat. The adaptors make it easy to change from one seat to a double in just seconds. It comes with a huge pop-out canopy shade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests and a peekaboo window in both seats. A standing fold is easy to make and quick.
Tri-fold buggies, such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile choice. They are great for navigating 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 available separately). They provide a spacious basket and include all the accessories you could need, including rain covers and liners.
Tandem buggies usually have your children seated side-by-side, which can make them easier to push and more sturdy on uneven surfaces, however they can be difficult to maneuver between kerbs. They typically have a bigger footprint than a single-seater pushchair and may be a bit longer to get through doorways.
Comfort

It also comes with an enormous UPF 50+ canopy with a the peek-a-boo window, and an upholstered toddler seat with an additional RumbleSeat that comes with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests as well as cups holder for one parent.

It's also simple to fold, thanks to a twist mechanism on the handle, making it as easy as is possible and also stores with the backrest upright for easy access.
