Size

double travel stroller pushchairs are typically more spacious than single ones, particularly when they are side-by-side buggies like the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good news is that this extra width enables them to carry heavier kids without straining the chassis. They also come with other key features that make them stand out, including generously-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and swivel lock front wheels that make it easier to navigate tight areas like shopping aisles cup holders for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that can be done by one hand; and 10 inch back wheels that aren't made for rough terrain, but can manage city streets and theme parks quite well.

These lightweight side-by-side buggies come with surprisingly low prices.

The heavier a double buggy is the easier it will be to lift and maneuver.

Buggies with narrow tandems are ideal to fit into narrow spaces, while side by side models will keep your children well-cared for and help you to keep an eye on them as you go to the grocery store or the park. There are a variety of seats so that you can adjust them as your child develops. Some even permit the addition of a car seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite duo is an excellent illustration. It can be used to hold two seats, or a car seat. The adaptors make it easy to change from a single seat to a double in just minutes. It also comes with a large pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade canopy with adjustable leg rests as well as windows that peek out from both seats; a standing fold that's simple and easy to perform using just one hand; and a top-quality suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.

Tri-fold buggies such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile option. They are ideal for navigating narrow doors and aisles. They are also able to accommodate twins and a large kid with the addition of UPPAbaby’s ‘PiggyBack’ board (which is available separately). The basket is large and comes with all terrain double buggy the extras, such as raincovers and liner.

Tandem buggies typically have children seated side-by-side, which makes them easier to push and more sturdy on uneven surfaces, but they can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. They are larger than a single seater and can be too long to pass through doorways.
