The Best Double Buggy Strollers

If you're expecting twins or two young children of various age groups, then the double buggy will assist you out and about. The best ones are easy to maneuver and handle rough surfaces and kerbs.

They also come with features like large sun canopy, see-through hoods and seats that are adjustable.

1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double

The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest model in the Baby Jogger range. It's designed for travel, and can fit through standard doors easily due to its slim and compact design. It's also among the lightest double buggies on the market with a weight of just 14lbs when folded. This makes it perfect for traveling with a newborn and a toddler as you won't be exceeding the luggage allowances of airlines. It can also be folded up into the size of a small travel bag, so you can store it in the back seat of your car.

It's easy to fold the Z-shape using one hand. Once you've gotten used to it, it's small and takes only a few minutes. However our tester found the auto lock a bit confusing. Also, since the handlebar isn't locked to its place when you press it, it landed on her legs when she used it. She also thought the handlebar was on the short side. This is particularly true when a large changing bag is hanging from it.

Unlike other lightweight travel buggies that aren't loaded with features and is among the most comprehensive double strollers available. It is compatible with two carrycots (available separately) and has multiple recline positions, and an UV 50+ canopy. You can even add a bassinet to one or both seats and transform it into a travel system.

The four wheels made of rubber are ideal for pavements and urban terrain however, they're not designed for off-roading - they struggled with long grass and gravel and there's not much space between the bracket and the wheel, so mud was able to get stuck easily. That being said our tester was still enthralled the buggy and did get up to some pretty hilly terrains.

2. iCandy Orange

The iCandy Orange double buggy is the most stylish, versatile and quality. It is an essential item for parents who want the latest in design, quality and style that lasts. The Orange is a stunning, lightweight, streamlined chassis with a huge basket that easily fits 2 car seats. It comes with an elegant, adjustable canopy that is both water-resistant and breathable. It comes in trendy colours such as Pistachio on the Jet Black Frame, Fossil on a Jet Black Frame, and Rose. The option to add a built-in ride to an older sibling is also available.

This 2021 update includes a couple of improvements, including better manoeuvrability, a larger shopping basket, and a new bumper bar that has a leatherette cover. The seats are very comfortable and have a moulded look. The seats are also adjustable and can be placed according to the needs of siblings. iCandy is the first to introduce a "cinema seating" design that allows parents to keep eye contact with their children. They can also be moved to face either the parent or the world facing.

It's a heavier tandem buggy but it's incredibly easy to operate and steer, particularly on smooth roads. It feels stable in both single and double mode and even on sloping terrain. It's not as easy to use on public transport since it requires two hands to hold the handlebar. It's also large and can't be stuffed into a 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 it's an excellent value for new parents.

4. Cybex Gazelle S

It's the first travel system made by Cybex and has built-in adaptors that make it simple to convert from a single pushchair into a double travel stroller. The upper adaptors are adjustable to your height, while the lower adaptors can be twisted and turned over to allow you to change from one configuration to another.

This is the futuristic multi-purpose stroller that is able to adapt to the needs of your family. It can be used from birth as a mono-pushchair, and after four years, it can be a thule double stroller pushchair with the addition of a CLOUD Z iSize car seat, a second seat unit or Gazelle Cot.

5. Nipper cheap double stroller V5

The Nipper Double V5 from Out 'n' About is a new version of the award-winning all-terrain buggy. It's made for siblings or twins, and features independent reclined seats, compatibility carrycots and a lightweight frame for hassle-free manoeuvring on bumpy terrain.

The height-adjustable handle and rear wheel suspension guarantee a comfortable ride for children up to 22kg, while the durable pneumatic tyres are easy to wipe clean and provide a smooth ride for running. The 360 swivel front wheel can be locked into place to make it easier to maneuver around the city, and the single pedal brake that locks easily is simple to use.

Our test participants found that the Nipper Double was incredibly easy to maneuver, even when walking on uneven ground or when turning quickly in an area with a lot of traffic. They were also awed by the fact that both seats recline independently. This means they can be adjusted to fit the individual's needs. This is ideal for napping.

They also appreciated the fact that the hoods could be moved back and forward making them easy to adjust in the sun or to provide wind protection. They didn't provide as much coverage as the Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It's probably worth packing an additional rain cover in the case.

Overall, our testers were impressed with the way the Nipper Double made it possible for them to take their Twin Umbrella Stroller girls Sydney and Lyla on a variety of adventures, from seeing wildlife in the woods, to rush to the park for a playdate. They were also impressed by how cozy and spacious the two seats are with plenty of room for growing toddlers to stretch out in. Our testers did mention that the absence of parent-facing seating and inability to use car seats in this buggy was a drawback, and they would like to have more storage space for shopping and other equipment.
