The Best Double Buggy Strollers

If you're expecting twins or have two children of different ages then a double buggy will help you get out and about. The best ones are simple to maneuver and deal with rough surfaces and kerbs.

These vehicles also come with features like large sun canopies, as well as see-through hoods, as well adjustable seats.

1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double

The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest of the Baby Jogger range. It is designed for travel, and can fit through doors that are standard with its slim and compact design. It's also one the lightest double buggies available weighing only 14lb when folded. This makes it perfect for traveling with a newborn and a toddler because you won't have to exceed the allowances for luggage on airlines. It can also be folded into the size of a small travel bag so you can store it in the back of your car.

The one-handed Z-shape fold is easy and it's extremely compact once you get the hang of it. It can take a couple of seconds to unfold. However our tester found the auto lock a little confusing. As the handlebar isn't locked to its place when you press it, it hit her legs when she used it. She also thought the handlebar was on the shorter side. This is especially true when a large change bag hangs from it.

Unlike other lightweight travel buggies, this doesn't skimp on features. It's one of the most feature-packed double strollers on the market. It's compatible with two carrycots (available separately) It also has multiple recline positions, and has an UV 50+ canopy. You can also add a bassinet to one or both seats and transform it into a travel system.

The four rubber composite tires are great for pavements as well as urban terrain. However, they were not made for off-roading. They struggled with gravel and long grass and there was not enough clearance between the wheel bracket and wheel, so mud stuck easily. Our tester loved this buggy, and it was able to climb some pretty dirt hills.

iCandy Orange

The iCandy Orange is a premium double buggy that is a top choice in design and versatility. It is a must-have for parents who want a chic high-end double buggy that lasts.

They can also be repositioned to face either parent or to face the world.

It's a heavier tandem buggy but it's incredibly easy to operate and steer, especially on smooth pavements. It's stable in double and single modes and even on sloping terrain. It's not as simple to use on public transport since it requires two hands on the handlebar. It's also a little bulky and can't be stuffed into a standard family car boot with the seat on, but this is a problem that can be overcome with some cautious planning. iCandy has included a footmuff and changing bag included in the price, making this an excellent value package for parents who are just starting out.

4. Cybex Gazelle S

If you're expecting twins, this is definitely the stroller for you. It's the Cybex first travel system with built-in adaptors that make it easy to convert an individual stroller into a double. The adaptors on the upper end can move up and down to match your height while the lower ones can be twisted around and turned over which makes it a breeze to change from one configuration to another. The Gazelle's seat units recline into a pretty flat position, and also have an extended, large UV 50+ sun canopy, which is essential for your young ones.

5. Nipper Double V5

It is specifically designed for twins or siblings and has recliner chairs that are independent, compatible with carrycots, and an ultra-light frame that allows for easy maneuverability on bumpy terrain.

The adjustable height 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 give a smooth ride when jogging. The 360-degree swivel wheel is able to be locked in place to make it easier to manoeuvre around town. The one-pedal lock brake is also simple to use.

Our test participants found that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to navigate, even on bumpy terrain or when turning on an area with a lot of traffic. They were also impressed by the fact that both seats recline independently. This means they can be adjusted to fit your individual preferences - perfect for napping.

The hoods were also easy to adjust for wind or sun protection. Our testers did find, however, that they didn't offer the same amount of coverage as something like the Baby Jogger City Mini hoods which is why it's worth packing a rain cover in case of need.

Overall, our testers loved the way that the Nipper Double allowed them to take their twin girls Sydney and Lyla on a variety of adventures, from spotting 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 space for growing toddlers to stretch out in. The lack of parent-facing seating and the inability of using a car seats on this buggy were both noted as a disadvantage by our test participants. They would have preferred a larger storage space for shopping and other equipment.
